Figure 4-4 Main Status Menu with a Valid PCM Input
The space above the line displays the type of input, sample rate, bit depth, and mode
(
Professional
or
Consumer
) of the stream. The DP564 accepts inputs up to
96 kHz, downsampling higher sample rates for processing at 48 or 44.1 kHz. Below
the line, you can still see the preset name and number, but the two-letter abbreviations
do not apply to a PCM stream.

Output Level Meters
The output level meters screen displays the level of each audio output signal after all
decoding, downmix, listening-mode, compression-mode, and bass-management
signal processing, but before any channel-level trims or delays.
4.3.3 Compression
Meters
The compression meters give a clear visual representation of the way in which the
dynamic range control is working on a Dolby Digital program. This display shows
dynamic range activity for both Line and RF profiles regardless of your
Compression
selection. This screen also shows the current dialogue level value in the Dolby Digital
bitstream.

The
Monitor Status
menu shows the settings for your current monitor setup,
including speaker configuration, subwoofer presence, crossover frequency (for bass
management), extended bitstream emulation status, and headphone output mode
(stereo or Dolby Headphone profile).
