INFORMATION
DiVX and MPEG4
MPEG4 is a compression technology for multimedia/video data ("MPEG" =
"Moving Picture Experts Group").
DiVX is a brand name for a video compression-decompression technology
based on the MPEG4 format. This player uses DiVX 4 and DiVX 5
technology to ensure that the peak bit rate (short-term peak) never
exceeds 10,000 kbps.
NICAM
NICAM (Near Instantaneous Compounded Audio Multiplex) is a method
of digitally transferring stereo sound that is used in Commonwealth
countries, Scandinavia and Belgium. In addition to a stereo signal it is also
possible to receive two different audio languages. Via the NICAM settings
you can therefore select between stereo and mono reception and two
audio languages.
NTSC and PAL
NTSC
and
PAL
are television standards for depicting frames on the TV. This
is because – in contrast to cinema films, which are shown on the projector
lens with 24 images per second on a strip of film – the image on TV and
video must also be divided into frames so that the human eye can perceive
a moving picture.
NTSC
(National Television System Committee) works with a 60 Hz image
frequency, i.e. 60 frames per second are displayed, and this corresponds
to 30 full images.
NTSC
is used in the US and Japan and produces 525 TV
lines.
PAL
(Phase Alteration Line), in contrast, works with a 50 Hz image
frequency (although there are now also PAL standards with 60Hz), this
produces 25 full images made up of 50 frames per second.
PAL
is the TV
standard that is used throughout Europe (except France where the
standard is SECAM), Australia, China, Singapore and Malaysia. It produces
625 TV lines.
PROGRESSIVE SCAN
On a DVD the film is available as information from full images as for a
cinema film. PROGRESSIVE SCAN is an image format that uses this and
produces the film in 50 full images instead of 50 frames per second. This
