Glossary Bit rate Bit rate is the value indicating amount of compressed information recorded on the DVD disc per one second. The unit is Mbps (Mega bits per second) for video signals. 1Mbps indicates that the amount of information per second is 1,000,000 bits. For audio signals, kbps (kilo bits per second) is used. The larger this value, the larger the amount of information involved. However, this value does not relate to the picture and sound quality. Chapter A segment of an image divided by two indexes. Dolby Digital format Dolby Digital is an audio data compression technology developed by Dolby Laboratories. This is known as "Dolby Surround." The output signals are composed of 1 channel of woofer for playback of the low sound, in addition to right and left of front, center, and right and left of rear. This is called 5.1 channel surround. 2-channel playback is available for the DVO1000MD. Finalize To arrange data on a recorded DVD disc so that it can be played back with another piece of DVD equipment. A DVD+RW disc is finalized when it is unloaded after being recorded. However, finalization is required even when a disc is played back using equipment compatible with DVD+RW discs. The disc can be recorded on again even if it is finalized. Index An index is a mark put at a desired point during playback or recording. The DVO-1000MD can place up to 99 indexes for one title and up to 256 indexes on one disc. Mbps Mbps is the abbreviation of Mega bits per second. Mbps is used to indicate the transmission speed of data. Bit is the unit used to indicate the size of data handled in computers. 1Mbps means that 1,000,000 digital signals can be handled for one second. Original title Titles actually recorded on the DVD+RW (VR mode). Once they are edited, they cannot be restored to their original state. Region code A code to specify the region where the disc can be played back. DVD recorders and DVD players have their own region codes. A disc can be played back only when the region codes of both the player and the recorder are the same. Title The largest unit of images or music recorded on a DVD. Normally, for image software, one film is one title, and for music software, one album (or a piece of music) is one title. With the DVO-1000MD, one title is the image recorded from the start of recording to the end of recording. 67 Glossary Miscellaneous

Glossary
Bit rate
Bit rate is the value indicating
amount of compressed information
recorded on the DVD disc per one
second. The unit is Mbps (Mega bits
per second) for video signals.
1Mbps indicates that the amount of
information per second is 1,000,000
bits. For audio signals, kbps (kilo
bits per second) is used. The larger
this value, the larger the amount of
information involved. However, this
value does not relate to the picture
and sound quality.
Chapter
A segment of an image divided by
two indexes.
Dolby Digital format
Dolby Digital is an audio data
compression technology developed
by Dolby Laboratories. This is
known as “Dolby Surround.” The
output signals are composed of 1
channel of woofer for playback of
the low sound, in addition to right
and left of front, center, and right
and left of rear. This is called 5.1
channel surround. 2-channel
playback is available for the DVO-
1000MD.
Finalize
To arrange data on a recorded DVD
disc so that it can be played back
with another piece of DVD
equipment.
A DVD+RW disc is finalized when
it is unloaded after being recorded.
However, finalization is required
even when a disc is played back
using equipment compatible with
DVD+RW discs. The disc can be
recorded on again even if it is
finalized.
Index
An index is a mark put at a desired
point during playback or recording.
The DVO-1000MD can place up to
99 indexes for one title and up to 256
indexes on one disc.
Mbps
Mbps is the abbreviation of Mega
bits per second.
Mbps is used to indicate the
transmission speed of data. Bit is the
unit used to indicate the size of data
handled in computers. 1Mbps means
that 1,000,000 digital signals can be
handled for one second.
Original title
Titles actually recorded on the
DVD+RW (VR mode).
Once they are edited, they cannot be
restored to their original state.
Region code
A code to specify the region where
the disc can be played back. DVD
recorders and DVD players have
their own region codes. A disc can
be played back only when the region
codes of both the player and the
recorder are the same.
Title
The largest unit of images or music
recorded on a DVD. Normally, for
image software, one film is one title,
and for music software, one album
(or a piece of music) is one title.
With the DVO-1000MD, one title is
the image recorded from the start of
recording to the end of recording.
