The Advanced options simulate the very different experiences of listening to sound in a living room, a small theater or a large stadium.


The TrueTheater Surround* (CyberLink Headphone) option uses technology developed by CyberLink to improve the quality of audio output from a notebook over headphones.For more information, see Dolby Headphone. Dolby Headphone* is a post-processing effect designed to create a virtual surround sound experience particularly for a headphone environment, but is suitable also for both notebook and desktop environments.Otherwise, both are relatively similar in 2-channel output. The major difference between Dolby Surround* Compatible Downmix and Stereo is that Dolby Surround uses the Dolby Surround downmixing algorithm and the possibility exists of connecting an analogue Pro Logic decoder to the sound card so as to enable 4-ch surround sound (left, right, center, surround) for Dolby Surround.Note: when the S/PDIF audio output is enabled and the output stream is not PCM, the volume control for CyberLink PowerDVD is disabled because your decoder assumes the task. To enjoy true 6 speaker output quality, you must have an external Dolby Digital or DTS decoder along with a S/PDIF-compliant sound card to make this selection available.
