Some sources marked Dolby Digital may be recorded in Dolby Surround, a 2 channel system. Look for this logo on your DVD Unit. Dolby Pro Logic II creates five full-bandwidth output channels from two-channel sources. This is done using an advanced, high-purity matrix surround decoder that extracts the spatial properties of the original recording without adding any new sounds or tonal colorations. Movie Mode (MOVIE) The Movie mode in Pro Logic II is very similar to that of the original Pro Logic decoder. The main difference is that it has stereo surround channels and no surround filter, unlike Pro Logic which has a mono surround channel and a 7 kHz surround filter. Movie mode is the standard required for all A/V systems. When an autosound unit has a video screen, it is also considered an A/V system. It can be called simply "Pro Logic II". Music Mode (MUSIC) The Music mode offers users some flexibility to control the end results to their own taste. Music mode should not be used with THX audio processing mode. Music mode is recommended as the standard mode for autosound music systems (without video), and is optional for A/V systems. It is recommended that Music mode be identified as the "Music" version of Pro Logic II, to distinguish it from the Movie mode.

When this mode is used, it is called Pro Logic, as before. There is no "Pro Logic I" mode. The Pro Logic emulation mode is optional. Dolby does not require PLII products to use the original Pro Logic decoding algorithm. However, if the DSP contains the original Pro Logic code, and if the product maker would like to use it, this is quite acceptable and even encouraged. A product must not offer both original Pro Logic and the Pro Logic emulation mode. Matrix Mode (MATRX) The Matrix mode is the same as the Music mode except that the directional enhancement logic is turned off. It may be used to enhance mono signals by making them seem "larger". The Matrix mode may also find use in auto systems, where the fluctuations from poor FM stereo reception can otherwise cause disturbing surround signals from a logic decoder. The ultimate "cure" for poor FM stereo reception may be simply to force the audio to mono. Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories.
