Beyond black help

I should have elaborated more.

Although I don't understand the technical aspects of this, I do know that many DVDs have information that is beyond black. In fact, test patterns (SMPTE bars) always contain a "beyond black" bar that is used to test a monitor's ability to display this information. Sorry, but I don't know how else to explain this--just don't know enough about it, but I do know what it looks like on my monitor.

Maybe one of the tech gurus here can help explain?
