Glossary
Analog audio
An electrical signal that directly repre-
sents sound. In contrast, digital audio
which can be an electrical signal, 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 usually
divided into chapters. See also Title.
Component video output
This is a video signal format that con-
veys each of three principal colors of
light (red, blue and green) through
different signal lines. This allows the
viewers to experience picture colors
as original as it is. There are several
signal formats, including Y/P
B
/P
R
and
Y/C
B

.
Digital audio
An indirect representation of sound by
numbers. During recording, the sound
is measured at discrete intervals (44,
100 times a second for CD audio) by
an analog-to-digital converter, generat-
ing a stream of numbers. On playback,
a digital-to-analog converter generates
an analog signal based on these num-
bers. See also Sampling frequency and
Analog audio.
Dolby Digital
The system developed by Dolby
Laboratories to compress digital 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 flickering and
higher image resolution than tradi-
tional (525i/480i) TV signals. 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 com-
patible 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 fre-
quency. 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 alter-
nate 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-quality pic-
ture will be materialized.
Title (DVD only)
A collection of chapters on DVD disc.
See also chapter.
Track
Audio CDs use tracks to divide up the
content of a disc. The DVD equivalent
is called a chapter. See also Chapter.
