Hi,
I was wondering for those who know DVD players whether the audio dynamic range control on DVD players will reduce the audio range when listening with the analog stereo outputs(to a Pro-Logic receiver).
Usually, the dynamic range control is a digital-feature but I don't know whether the range compression will be preserved when converting from digital to analog (by the built-in 5.1 to 2 channel decoder found in all player).
I would appreciate any info anyone might have to offer.
Also I would like to know whether you've tried this feature and how well it works on your player.
Thanks
Andy

All DVD players have built-in DD decoding for atleast stereo. So, yes, the dynamic range control on your DVD player will affect the sound coming out of the analog RCA jacks.
