Audio and video terms defined
Aspect ratioA– An expression for the width of the picture relative to the height and seen when 
as a rectangular TV image. For example, if the aspect ratio is 4:3 (read as 4 by 3), the shape of 
that picture is 4 units wide by 3 units high. The standard TV aspect ratios are 4:3 and 16:9.
CD-R, CD-RW

composite or S-video signals. This more complex signal also requires the use of component 
connection jacks, which are not available on all televisions or video components. 
Composite video – The simplest of three types of video signal, which combines rather than 
separates brightness (black and white) and color information. It provides the lowest resolution 
of the three, but is compatible with the broadest range of televisions and other video compo-
nents and requires a simple video cable connection to RCA jacks.

accepted as an international standard. Dolby Digital is the most common means of encoding 
multi-channel audio.

(RW) Digital Video (or Versatile) Disc (DVD). Data can be added to a DVD-R or +R once only,

DVD-ROM – The abbreviation for Read Only Memory (ROM) on a Digital Video (or Versatile) 
Disc (DVD), which allows no data to be added.
DVD video – A standard for storing and reproducing audio and video on DVD-ROM discs, 
based on MPEG video, Dolby Digital audio, and other proprietary data formats.
