i don't mix for Discovery or have an LM100... but i have been keeping up on all the developments and issues.
so i will echo what garret just said.
what makes sense to me is to turn up your monitors by 2dB and watch your VU meters and keep that dialogue around -5 VU. i was on a conference call with Dolby and some mixers discussing the LM100 and it Dialog intelligence technology and one engineer was explaining that one of his mixers was having issues with a poorly recorded production dialog driven reality show.... i suspect that heavy amounts of L2 are going to create higher readings with the algorithm then would show up on a PPM, or Peak or VU. (i personally feel L2 is a vice that ought to be dispensed with...there are better limiters out there.). anyway, if you monitor at 81 SPL instead of 79 you will have a better chance of keeping your diag sitting around -28 to -26.
