such as the multi-angle, multilingual, and
Parental Control functions are provided with
the DVD.

Dolby Surround Pro Logic
As one method of decoding Dolby
Surround, Dolby Surround Pro Logic
produces four channels from two-channel
sound. Compared with the former Dolby
Surround system, Dolby Surround Pro Logic
reproduces left-to-right panning more
naturally and localizes sounds more
precisely. To take full advantage of Dolby
Surround Pro Logic, you should have one
pair of rear speakers and a center speaker.
The rear speakers output monaural sound.
DTS
Digital audio compression technology that
the Digital Theater Systems, Inc. developed.
This technology conforms to 5.1-channel
surround. The rear channel is stereo and
there is discrete subwoofer channel in this
format. DTS provides the same 5.1 discrete
channels of high quality digital audio. The
good channel separation is realized because
the all channel data is recorded discrete and
processed in digital.
DVD
A disc that contains up to 8 hours of moving
pictures even though its diameter is the same
as a CD.
The data capacity of a single-layer and
single-sided DVD, at 4.7 GB (Giga Byte), is
7 times that of a CD. Furthermore, the data
capacity of a dual-layer and single-sided
DVD is 8.5 GB, a single-layer and double-
sided DVD 9.4 GB, and a dual-layer and
double-sided DVD 17 GB.
The picture data uses the MPEG 2 format,
one of the worldwide standards of digital
compression technology. The picture data is
compressed to about 1/40 of its original size.
