Dolby Pro Logic
Dolby Pro Logic is the technology used to decode programs
encoded in Dolby Surround. Pro logic decoding will provide
you with four channels of sound (front left/right, centre and
monaural rear surround) from a 2-channel (stereo) source.
* The separately sold digital audio processor (PXA-H510, PXA-
H900) is required to enjoy Dolby Pro Logic surround sound.
Dolby Pro Logic II
Dolby Pro Logic II plays 2-channel sources in 5 channels over
the entire frequency range.
This is done with an advanced, high sound quality matrix
surround decoder which draws out the spatial properties of the
original recording without adding any sounds to or changing
the sound of the source.
* The separately sold digital audio processor (PXA-H701, etc.) is
required to enjoy Dolby Pro Logic II surround sound.
Linear PCM audio (LPCM)
LPCM is a signal recording format used for music CDs.
Whereas music CDs are recorded at 44.1 kHz/16 bits, DVDs
are recorded at 48 kHz/16 bits to 96 kHz/24 bits, thereby
achieving higher sound quality than music CDs.
Rating levels (parental lock)
This is a DVD function for restricting the viewing age as
stipulated by censorship laws in different countries.  The way
in which viewing is restricted differs from DVD to DVD.
Sometimes the DVD cannot be played at all, other times
certain scenes are skipped, and other times certain scenes
are replaced with other scenes.
Terminology
Dolby Digital
Dolby Digital is a digital audio compression technology
developed by Dolby Laboratories that allows large quantities
of audio data to be efficiently recorded on discs. It is
compatible with audio signals from mono (1 channel) all the
way up to 5.1-channel surround sound. The signals for the
different channels are completely independent, and since the
sound is high quality digital there is no loss of sound quality.
* The separately sold digital audio processor (PXA-H510, PXA-
H900, PXA-H701, etc.) is required to enjoy full 5.1-channel
surround sound.
The DVA-9965R performs Dolby Digital decoding when it
outputs analog audio signals; 2-channel audio, not 5.1-
channel.
DTS
This is a home-use digital sound format of the DTS Sound
System. This is a high quality sound system, developed by
Digital Theater Systems ,Inc. for use in movie theatres.
DTS has six independent sound tracks. The theatre
presentation is fully realized in the home, etc. DTS is the
abbreviation for Digital Theater System.
* To enjoy DTS surround sound you need the separately sold DTS
digital audio processor (PXA-H900, PXA-H701, etc.).  The DVD
video software must also have a DTS sound track.
The DVA-9965R has a built-in DTS 2-channel audio decoder.
Analog audio outputs are available.
