VCD: VIDEO CD A type of CD which contains the recording of moving images. It compresses image information by about 1/120 and audio information by about 1/6 and accommodates up to 74 minutes of recording in a disc with the same diameter as ordinary music CD of 12 cm. Some VCDs do not have the P.B.C. compatibility and are capable of playback only, while some are P.B.C.-compatible and are capable of various special playback control operations. This player can play both of these VCDs. MPEG: Moving Picture Expert Group (DVD, VCD) This is an international standard for digital video and audio compression and decompression in media.

You can enjoy surround channels as full-band sounds (from 20 Hz to 20 kHz) and stereo sources as real 5.1-channel sounds. The Movie mode, Music mode, or Matrix mode can be selected according to the playback source. When the Dolby Pro Logic II mode is selected, the sound level is slightly dropped due to its characteristics. Top menu/menu (DVD) Some DVDs display more than one title in a screen. This screen is referred to as the top menu. The menu is the item display (menu screen) for use in setting operations. The menu can be recalled any time during playback to perform settings according to the current software, including the audio switching between Dolby Digital and PCM, switching of language used in the subtitles and spoken voice. Title number (DVD) The title is the largest unit of video and audio recorded in a DVD. It usually corresponds to a single movie of video software or an album (sometimes a piece of music) of music software. The numbers assigned to individual titles are referred to as the title numbers. Chapter number (DVD) The chapter is a section of video and audio recorded in a DVD. A title is composed of several chapters. The numbers assigned to individual chapters are referred to as the chapter numbers. Subtitles (DVD) Some DVD discs contains the recording of more than one subtitle language. This player allow you to select one of the recorded subtitle languages during playback. Track number (CD, VCD) A track is also a section of video and audio recorded in a disc. The numbers assigned to individual tracks are referred to as the track numbers. With most of music CDs, a track is assigned to a piece of music. However, with a VCD, the sections of the contents do not always correspond to the assigned tracks. As (special) playback functions such as skipping and programming of ordinary CDs are based on track number data, such playback functions are sometimes impossible with some VCDs.
