is there a dialogue normalization function on your panasonic BD player?

Posted by jeromelang on January 14, 2010 at 02:23:56:
maybe it is turned on by default.
supposedly it makes dialogue heard clearly over louder action sounds.

but it achieves this by compressing the entire sound track - that's why on your BD player, louder sounds are not that louder, and lower level details are heard more easily.

there's a catch of course. poorer sound fidelity overall....
