Glossary
Analog audio
An electrical signal that directly rep-
resents sound. In contrast, digital
audio which can be an electrical sig-
nal, but is an indirect representation
of sound. See also Digital audio.
Aspect ratio
The width of a TV screen relative to
its height. Conventional TVs are 4:3
(in other words, the screen is almost
square); widescreen models are 16:9
(the screen is almost twice as wide as
it is high).
Chapter
Just as a book is split up into several
chapters, a title on a DVD disc is usu-
ally divided into chapters. See also
Title.
Component video output
This is a video signal format that
conveys each of three principal
colors of light (red, blue and green)
through different signal lines. This
allows the viewers to experience pic-
ture colors as original as it is. There
are several signal formats, including
Y/PB/PR and Y/CB/CR.
Digital audio
An indirect representation of sound
by numbers. During recording, the
sound is measured at discrete inter-
vals (44, 100 times a second for
CD audio) by an analog-to-digital
converter, generating a stream of
numbers. On playback, a digital-to-
analog converter generates an ana-
log signal based on these numbers.
See also Sampling frequency and
Analog audio.
Dolby Digital
The system developed by Dolby
Laboratories to compress digi-
tal sound. It offers you sound of
stereo(2ch) or multi-channel audio
(up to 5.1ch).
Finalize
To make recorded contents on DVD
discs possible to be played back
on DVD players. With this unit, it is
possible to finalize DVD+R/DVD-RW/
DVD-R discs.
MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3)
MP3 is a method of compressing
files. You can copy MP3 files on CD-
RW/R discs from the computer and
play back the files on this unit.
PBC (Playback Control)
(Video CD only)
This function enables you to play
back interactive software using a
menu screen. See also Video CD.
PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)
PCM is a format that converts audio
into digital data. It is mainly used for
Audio CDs and DAT. This unit can play
back sounds as realistic as possible
by converting even compressed Dolby
Digital and MPEG audio to PCM.
Progressive Scan (525p/480p)
A type of display that does not
split each frame into fields, and
instead scans directly through all the
scanlines of each frame in order.
Progressive Scan provides less flick-
ering and higher image resolution
than traditional (525i/480i) TV sig-
nals. Refer to page 71 for instructions
on selective Progressive Scan mode.
Regions code
Regions associate discs and players
with particular areas of the world.
This unit will only play back discs
that have compatible region codes.
You can find the region code of your
unit by looking at the rear panel.
Some discs are compatible with
more than one region (or all regions).
Sampling frequency
The rate which sound is measured
by a specified interval to turn it into
digital audio data. The numbers of
sampling in one second defines as
sampling frequency. The higher the
rate, the better the sound quality is.
SAP (Secondary Audio Program)
Sub audio channel which is delivered
separately from main-audio channel.
This audio channel is used as an
alternate in bilingual broadcasting.
S-Video output
It delivers independently each signal
of color(C) and luminance(Y) to TV
as video signals, so that higher-qual-
ity picture will be materialized.
Title (DVD only)
A collection of chapters on DVD disc.
See also chapter.
Track
Audio CDs use tracks to divide the
content of a disc. The DVD equiva-
lent is called a chapter. See also
