Glossary
AVCHD
AVCHD is a new format (standard) for high-definition video 
cameras that can be used to record and play high-resolution 
HD images.
BD-J
Some BD-Video discs contain Java applications, and these 
applications are called BD-J. You can enjoy various interactive 
features in addition to playing normal video.
Bitstream
This is the digital form of multi-channel audio data (e.g., 5.1 
channel) before it is decoded into its various channels.
Deep Colour
This unit incorporates HDMI technology that can reproduce 
greater colour gradation (4096 steps) when connected to a 
compatible TV.
You can enjoy exceptionally rich, natural-looking colours, with 
smooth, detailed gradation and minimal colour banding.
[A lower colour gradation (256 steps), without Deep Colour, will 
be reproduced if connected to a TV which does not support 
Deep Colour.
The unit will automatically set appropriate output to suit the 
connected TV.]
DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance)
DLNA is a standard that makes DLNA Certified digital 
electronics easier and more convenient to use on a home 
network.
Dolby Digital
This is a method of coding digital signals developed by Dolby 
Laboratories. Apart from stereo (2-channel) audio, these 
signals can also be multi-channel audio.
Dolby Digital Plus
Multi-channel audio and higher audio quality is made possible 
using Dolby Digital Plus. BD-Video supports up to 7.1 channel 
output.
Dolby TrueHD
Dolby TrueHD is a very high quality audio format that 
reproduces the studio master audio. BD-Video supports up to 
7.1 channel output.
Dolby Virtual Speaker
This system allows you to enjoy a surround effect with two 
front speakers and a subwoofer. This is not merely a “virtual 
surround” effect, but rather uses the optimal speaker 
arrangements and listening positions for 5.1-channel sound.
Down-mixing
This is the process of remixing the multi-channel audio found 
on some discs into fewer channels.
DTS (Digital Theater Systems)
This surround system is used in many movie theatres. There is 
good separation between the channels, so realistic sound 
effects are possible.
DTS-HD
DTS-HD is a high-quality, sophisticated audio format used in 
movie theatres. Previous DTS Digital Surround-compatible 
equipment can play DTS-HD as DTS Digital Surround audio. 
BD-Video supports up to 7.1 channel output.DTS-HD High Resolution Audio
This is a signal format achieved by improving the previous 
DTS, DTS-ES and DTS 96/24 formats. It is compatible with 
sampling frequency 96 kHz/48 kHz. BD-Video supports up to 
7.1 channel output.
DTS-HD Master Audio | Essential
This is a lossless audio format and compatible with 96 kHz/
7.1 ch and 192 kHz/2 ch or less. In addition, faithful 
reproduction of the master audio is enabled using lossless 
audio encoding technology. BD-Video supports up to 
7.1 channel output.
Dynamic range
Dynamic range is the difference between the lowest level of 
sound that can be heard above the noise of the equipment and 
the highest level of sound before distortion occurs.
Dynamic range compression means reducing the gap between 
the loudest and softest sounds. This means you can listen at 
low volumes but still hear dialogue clearly.
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface)
HDMI is a digital interface for consumer electronic products. 
Unlike conventional connections, it transmits uncompressed 
digital video and audio signals on a single cable.
Local storage
This storage area is used as a destination for sub contents for 
playing BD-Live on BD-Video.
LPCM (Linear PCM)
These are a kind of PCM format.
These are uncompressed digital signals, similar to those found 
on CDs.
PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)
This is one format for converting analogue audio into digital 
audio, enabling you to enjoy digital audio with no hassle.
P4HD (Pixel Precision Progressive Processing for HD)
This is a processor which makes use of an exclusive 
Panasonic algorithm. Various processing is supported, 
including a high-level conversion of the TV scanning format 
from interlace to progressive and a high-level conversion of 
standard resolution (480i or 576i) video signal to a 1080 
High-Definition video signal.
Consequently, this unit is able to provide video of optimal 
resolution to the connected TV.
x.v.Colour
TM
x.v.ColourTM is a name for devices that are compatible with the 
xvYCC format, an international standard for expanded colour 
in motion pictures, and that follow the rules for signal 
transmission.
You can enjoy vivid colours of wider colour ranges for a more 
realistic picture when connected to a TV that supports the 
x.v.Colour
TM with HDMI cable.
24p
This is a progressive image recorded at a rate of 24 frames per 
second (motion-picture film). Many BD-Video movie contents 
are recorded in 24 frames/second in accordance with the film 
materials.
