 When playing commercial DVD try picking stereo track as opposed to 5.1. It
 may be the downmix to 2 channel is not being handled very well by the DVD
 recorder.
 
 A lot of Pioneers have a dynamic range compression option , possibly while
 playing disk back press HOME MENU - Video/Audio Adjust if this is applicable
 to the 5100.
 
 There are also audio out options in setup where you probably need to set
 things like Dolby Digital out ->o PCM as opposed to Dolby Digital.
