Quick Reference Glossary x 5.1ch surround sound A system that plays back sound on 6 speakers, 3 at the front (left, right and center) and 2 at the rear (right and left) with an additional low-pass subwoofer counted as a 0.1 channel for frequencies of 120 Hz or lower. x Dolby Digital An audio encoding (compression) system developed by Dolby Laboratories Inc. x Dolby Digital 5.1 Creator Sound compression technology developed by Dolby Laboratories Inc. which compresses audio efficiently while preserving high sound quality. It enables recording of 5.1ch surround sound while using hard disk space more efficiently. DVDs created by Dolby Digital 5.1 Creator can be played back on a compatible DVD device. You can enjoy more realistic sound by playing the movie on the device that supports 5.1ch surround sound. x Fragmentation The condition of a hard disk in which files are divided into pieces scattered around the hard disk. You may not save your images correctly. You can solve the condition by performing [ FORMAT] (p. 49). x JPEG JPEG stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group, a still image data compression (data capacity reduction) standard. Your camcorder records still images in JPEG format. x MPEG MPEG stands for Moving Picture Experts Group, the group of standards for the coding (image compression) of video (movie) and audio. There are MPEG1 and MPEG2 formats. Your camcorder records movies with SD (standard definition) image quality in MPEG2 format. x Thumbnail Reduced-size images which enable you to view many images at the same time. "VISUAL INDEX" use a thumbnail display system. x VBR VBR stands for Variable Bit Rate, the recording format for automatically controlling the bit rate (the volume of recording data in a given time segment) according to the scene being recorded. For fast-moving video, a lot of hard disk space is used to produce a clear image, so the recording time to the hard disk shortens. x VISUAL INDEX This function displays images of movies and still images you have recorded so that you can select those scenes you want to play back.
