File names can have up to 128 characters.
Linear PCM (LPCM)/Pulse code modulation
This stands for linear pulse code modulation, which is
the signal recording system used for music CDs and
DVDs. Generally, DVDs are recorded with higher sam-
pling frequency and bit rate than CDs. Therefore, DVDs
can provide higher sound quality.
m3u
Playlists created using the “WINAMP” software
have a playlist file extension (.m3u).
Menu
A list of options shown on the display; choices are
selected touching the display.
MP3
MP3 is short for MPEG Audio Layer 3. It is an audio com-
pression standard set by a working group (MPEG) of the
ISO (International Standards Organisation). MP3 is able
to compress audio data to about 1/10th the level of a
conventional disc.
MPEG
This stands for Moving Pictures Experts Group, and is an
international video image compression standard. Some
DVDs feature digital audio compressed and recorded
using this system.
Multi-angle
With regular TV programmes, although multiple cam-
eras are used to simultaneously shoot scenes, only
images from one camera at a time are transmitted to
your TV. Some DVDs feature scenes shot from multiple
angles, letting you choose your viewing angle as desired.
Multi-audio (Multilingual dialogue)
Some DVDs feature dialogue recorded in multiple lan-
guages. Dialogue in up to 8 languages can be recorded
on a single disc, letting you choose as desired.
Multi-session
Multi-session is a recording method that allows addi-
tional data to be recorded later. When recording data on
a CD-ROM, CD-R or CD-RW, etc., all data from begin-
ning to end is treated as a single unit or session. Multi-
session is a method of recording more than 2 sessions
in one disc.
Multi-subtitle
Subtitles in up to 32 languages can be recorded on a sin-
gle DVD, letting you choose as desired.
Packet write
This is a general term for a method of writing on CD-R,
etc. at the time required for a file, just as is done with
files on floppy or hard discs.
Parental lock
Some DVD-Video discs with violent or adult-oriented
scenes feature parental lock which prevents children
from viewing such scenes. With this kind of disc, if you
set the unit’s parental lock level, playback of scenes
inappropriate for children will be disabled, or these
scenes will be skipped.
Point of Interest (POI)
Point Of Interest; any of a range of locations stored in
the data, such as railway stations, shops, restaurants,
and amusement parks.
Region number
DVD players and DVD discs feature region numbers indi-
cating the area in which they were purchased. Playback
of a DVD is not possible unless it features the same
region number as the DVD player. The navigation sys-
tem’s region number is displayed on the bottom of the
display unit.
RDS-TMC
A communication system for informing drivers of the lat-
est traffic information using FM multiplex broadcast.
Information such as traffic jams or accidents can be
checked on the display.
Route setting
The process of determining the ideal route to a specific
location; route setting is done automatically by the sys-
tem when you specify a destination.
Set route
The route marked out by the system to your destination.
It is highlighted in bright green on the map.
Title
DVD-Video discs have high data capacity, enabling
recording of multiple movies on a single disc. If, for
example, one disc contains three separate movies, they
are divided into title 1, title 2 and title 3. This lets you
enjoy the convenience of title search and other func-
tions.
Tracking
Marks on the map indicating the route you have trav-
elled.
VBR
VBR is short for variable bit rate. Generally speaking
CBR (constant bit rate) is more widely used. But by flexi-
bly adjusting the bit rate according to the needs of audio
compression, it is possible to achieve compression prior-
ity sound quality.
