Terminology
Dolby Digital is a digital audio compression technology
developed by Dolby Laboratories that allows large quantities of
audio data to be efficiently recorded on discs. It is compatible
with audio signals from mono (1 channel) all the way up to 5.1-
channel surround sound. The signals for the different channels
are completely independent, and since the sound is high quality
digital there is no loss of sound quality.
* The separately sold digital audio processor (PXA-H800, etc.) is
required to enjoy full 5.1-channel surround sound.
This is a home-use digital sound format of the DTS Sound
System. This is a high quality sound system, developed by
Digital Theater Systems, Inc. for use in movie theaters. DTS has
six independent sound tracks. The theater presentation is fully
realized in the home, etc. DTS is the abbreviation for Digital
Theater System.
* To enjoy DTS surround sound you need the separately sold DTS
digital audio processor (PXA-H800, etc.). The DVD video software
must also have a DTS sound track.
Dolby Pro Logic is the technology used to decode programs
encoded in Dolby Surround. Pro Logic decoding will provide you
with four channels of sound (front left/right, certer and monaural
rear surround) from a 2-channel (stereo) source.
* The separately sold digital audio processor (PXA-H800, etc.) is
required to enjoy Dolby Pro Logic surround sound.
Dolby Pro Logic II plays 2-channel sources in 5 channels over
the entire frequency range.
This is done with an advanced, high sound quality matrix
surround decoder which draws out the spatial properties of the
original recording without adding any sounds to or changing the
sound of the source.
* The separately sold digital audio processor (PXA-H800, etc.) is
required to enjoy Dolby Pro Logic II surround sound.
LPCM is a signal recording format used for music CDs. Whereas
music CDs are recorded at 44.1 kHz/16 bits, DVDs are recorded
at 48 kHz/16 bits to 96 kHz/24 bits, thereby achieving higher
sound quality than music CDs.
