NAVI/AV Linear PCM (LPCM)/Pulse code modulation This stands for linear pulse code modulation, which is the signal recording system used for music CDs and DVDs. Generally, DVDs are recorded with higher sampling frequency and bit rate than CDs. Therefore, DVDs can provide higher sound quality. m3u Playlists created using the "WINAMP" software have a playlist file extension (.m3u). Menu A list of options shown on the display; choices are selected touching the display. MP3 MP3 is short for MPEG Audio Layer 3. It is an audio compression standard set by a working group (MPEG) of the ISO (International Standards Organization). MP3 is able to compress audio data to about 1/10th the level of a conventional disc. MPEG This stands for Moving Pictures Experts Group, and is an international video image compression standard. Some DVDs feature digital audio compressed and recorded using this system. Multi-angle With regular TV programs, although multiple cameras are used to simultaneously shoot scenes, only images from one camera at a time are transmitted to your TV. Some DVDs feature scenes shot from multiple angles, letting you choose your viewing angle as desired. Multi-audio (Multilingual dialog) Some DVDs feature dialog recorded in multiple languages. Dialog in up to 8 languages can be recorded on a single disc, letting you choose as desired. Multi-session Multi-session is a recording method that allows additional data to be recorded later. When recording data on a CD-ROM, CD-R or CD-RW, etc., all data from beginning to end is treated as a single unit or session. Multisession is a method of recording more than 2 sessions in one disc. Multi-subtitle Subtitles in up to 32 languages can be recorded on a single DVD, letting you choose as desired. Navigation map disc This DVD-ROM disc contains Pioneer navigation software. Map data is also recorded on the disc. Optical digital output By transmitting audio signals in a digital signal format, the chance of sonic quality deteriorating in the course of transmission is minimized. An optical digital output is designed to transmit digital signals optically. Packet write This is a general term for a method of writing on CD-R, etc. at the time required for a file, just as is done with files on floppy or hard discs. Parental lock Some DVD video discs with violent or adult-oriented scenes feature parental lock which prevents children from viewing such scenes. With this kind of disc, if you set the unit's parental lock level, playback of scenes inappropriate for children will be disabled, or these scenes will be skipped. Point of Interest (POI) Point Of Interest; any of a range of locations stored in the data, such as railway stations, shops, restaurants, and amusement parks. Region number DVD players and DVD discs feature region numbers indicating the area in which they were purchased. Playback of a DVD is not possible unless it features the same region number as the DVD player. The navigation unit's region number is displayed on the bottom of the display unit. Route setting The process of determining the ideal route to a specific location; route setting is done automatically by the system when you specify a destination. Set route The route marked out by the system to your destination. It is highlighted in bright green on the map. Title DVD video discs have high data capacity, enabling recording of multiple movies on a single disc. If, for example, one disc contains three separate movies, they are divided into title 1, title 2 and title 3. This lets you enjoy the convenience of title search and other functions. Tracking Marks on the map indicating the route you have traveled. VBR VBR is short for variable bit rate. Generally speaking CBR (constant bit rate) is more widely used. But by flexibly adjusting the bit rate according to the needs of audio compression, it is possible to achieve compression priority sound quality. Voice guidance The giving of directions by a recorded voice while in guidance mode. Appendix 114
