AdvancedGame
Mode suitable for game content.
Classical
Suitable for classical or operatic music. This mode
emphasizes the surround channels in order to widen the
stereo image, and simulates the natural reverberation of a
large hall.
Dolby Atmos
This mode faithfully reproduces the sound design recorded
in the Dolby Atmos audio format.
The Dolby Atmos audio format has been implemented in
movie theaters equipped with the latest facilities and
enables a revolutionary sound experience in home theaters.
Unlike existing surround systems, Dolby Atmos doesn't rely
on channels, but rather enables the accurate placement of
sound objects that have independent motion in a three-
dimensional space with even greater clarity. Dolby Atmos is
an optional audio format on Blu-ray Discs and achieves a
three-dimensional sound field by introducing a sound field
above the listener.

Dolby Digital is a multi-channel digital format developed by

production. It is also a standard audio format on DVD-Video
and Blu-ray Discs. It is possible to record a maximum of 5.1
channels on a DVD-Video or Blu-ray Disc; two front
channels, a center channel, two surround channels, and the
LFE channel dedicated to the bass region (sound elements
for the subwoofer).

Dolby Di (Dolby Digital Plus)

The Dolby Digital Plus format is a revision based on Dolby
Digital, increasing the number of channels and endeavoring
to improve sound quality by giving more flexibility in data bit
rates. Dolby Digital Plus is used as an optional audio format
on Blu-ray Discs, based on 5.1ch, but with additional
channels such as the surround back channel added for a
