GLOSSARY Analog Audio An electrical signal that directly represents sound. Compare this to digital audio which can be an electrical signal, but is an indirect representation of sound. See also "Digital Audio". Aspect Ratio The width of a TV screen relative to its height. Conventional TVs are 4:3 (in other words, the TV screen is almost square); widescreen models are 16:9 (the TV screen is almost twice as wide as it is high). BD-Java With some BD which support Java applications, you can enjoy the interactive functions such as games or interactive menus. Dolby TrueHD Dolby TrueHD is a lossless coding technology developed for next generation optical discs. Blu-ray Disc supports 7.1 multi-channel surround sound output. DTS (Digital Theater System): DTS is a multi-channel surround sound system. By connecting to DTS decoder, you can enjoy movie dynamic and realistic sound like movie theater. DTS surround sound technologies were developed by DTS, Inc. DTS-HD DTS-HD is a lossless coding technology developed as an extension of the original DTS Coherent Acoustics format. Blu-ray Disc supports 7.1 multi-channel surround sound output. Blu-ray Disc (BD) Blu-ray Disc is a next generation optical video disc which is capable of storing much more data than a conventional DVD is. The large capacity makes it possible to benefit from the features such as high-definition videos, multichannel surround sounds, interactive menus and so on. Chapter Just as a book is split up into several chapters, a title on a BD-video or DVD-video is usually divided into chapters. See also "Title". Component Video Output Each signal of luminance (Y) and component (PB/CB, PR/CR) is independent to output so that you can experience picture color as it is. Also, due to compatibility with progressive video (525p/480p), you can experience higher-density picture than that in interlace (525i/480i). HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) A digital interface between audio and video source. It can transmit component video, audio, and control signal with one cable connection. MP3 (MPEG audio layer 3) MP3 is a method of compressing files. You can copy MP3 files on CD-RW/-R, DVD or SD Memory Card from the computer and play back the files on this unit. PCM (pulse code modulation) The most common system of encoding digital audio, found on CD and DAT. Excellent quality, but requires a lot of data compared to formats such as Dolby Digital and MPEG audio. For compatibility with digital audio recorders (CD, MD and DAT) and AV amplifiers with digital inputs, this unit can convert Dolby Digital and MPEG audio to PCM. See also "Digital Audio". Digital Audio An indirect representation of sound by numbers. During recording, the sound is measured at discrete intervals (44,100 times a second for CD audio) by an analog-todigital converter, generating a stream of numbers. On playback, a digital-to-analog converter generates an analog signal based on these numbers. See also "Sampling Frequency" and "Analog Audio". Dolby Digital The system to compress digital sound developed by Dolby Laboratories. It offers you sound of stereo (2ch) or multi-channel audio. Dolby Digital Plus Dolby Digital Plus is the next generation digital audio compression technology developed as an extension to Dolby Digital. Blu-ray Disc supports 7.1 multi-channel surround sound output. Region Code Regions associate discs and players with particular areas of the world. This unit will only play back discs that have compatible region codes. You can find the region code of your unit by looking on the rear panel. Some discs are compatible with more than one region (or all regions). Sampling Frequency The rate which sound is measured by a specified interval to turn into digital audio data. The numbers of sampling in one second defines as sampling frequency. The higher the rate, the better the sound quality. Title A collection of chapters on BD-video or DVD-video. See also "Chapter". Track Audio CD use tracks to divide up the content of a disc. The BD-video or DVD-video equivalent is called a chapter. See also "Chapter". 44 EN
