Additional Information Glossary x Cinema Studio EX A surround sound mode that can be regarded as the compilation of Digital Cinema Sound technology, delivers the sound of a dubbing theater using three technologies: "Virtual Multi Dimensions", "Screen Depth Matching", and "Cinema Studio Reverberation". "Virtual Multi Dimensions", the virtual speaker technology, creates a virtual multisurround environment with actual speakers up to 7.1 channels, and brings the surround sound experience of a theater with the latest facilities into your home. "Screen Depth Matching" reproduces treble attenuation, fullness, and depth of sound usually created in a theater using sound emission from behind the screen. This is then added to the front and center channels. "Cinema Studio Reverberation" reproduces the sound characteristics of state-of-the-art dubbing theaters and recording studios, including Sony Pictures Entertainment's dubbing studios. There are three modes, A/B/ C, available according to the studio type. x Component video A format for transmitting video signal information consisting of three separate signals: luminance Y, chrominance Pb, and chrominance Pr. High quality pictures, such as DVD video or HDTV pictures, are transmitted more faithfully. The three jacks are colorcoded green, blue, and red. x Composite video A standard format for transmitting video signal information. The luminance signal Y and chrominance signal C are combined and transmitted together. x Crossover frequency The frequency at which two speaker's frequencies intersect. x Deep Color (Deep Colour) Video signals for which the color depth of signals passing through an HDMI jack have been raised. The number of colors that could be expressed by 1 pixel was 24 bits (16,777,216 colors) with the current HDMI jack. However, the number of colors which can be expressed by 1 pixel will be 36, etc., bits when the receiver corresponds to Deep Color (Deep Colour). Since the gradation of the depth of a color can be expressed more finely with more bits, continuous color changes can be more smoothly expressed. x Digital Cinema Sound (DCS) Unique sound reproduction technology for home theater developed by Sony, in cooperation with Sony Pictures Entertainment, for enjoying the exciting and powerful sound of movie theaters at home. With this "Digital Cinema Sound" developed by integrating a DSP (Digital Signal Processor) and measured data, the ideal sound field intended by filmmakers can be experienced at home. x Dolby Digital Digital audio encoding/decoding technology developed by Dolby Laboratories, Inc. It consists of front (left/right), center, surround (left/right) and subwoofer channels. It is a designated audio standard for DVD-video and also known as 5.1 channels surround. x Dolby Digital Plus Dolby Digital Plus provides the flexibility and efficiency to deliver more channels of compelling surround sound for high-definition video media. Its superior coding efficiencies enable up to 7.1 channels of high-quality multi channel audio without negatively impacting bit budgets allocated for video performance or additional feature sets. 130US
