Glossary
AVCHD
The AVCHD format is a high-definition digital 
video camera format used to record SD 
(standard definition) or HD (high definition) 
signals of either the 1080i specification* or the 
720p specification** on DVDs, using efficient 
data compression coding technology. The 
MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format is adopted to 
compress video data, and the Dolby Digital or 
Linear PCM system is used to compress audio 
data. The MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format is 
capable of compressing images at higher 
efficiency than that of the conventional image 
compression format. The MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 
format enables a high definition (HD) video 
signal shot on a digital video camera recorder to 
be recorded on DVD discs in the same way as it 
would be for a standard definition (SD) 
television signal.
* A high definition specification that utilizes 1080 
effective scanning lines and the interlace format.
** A high definition specification that utilizes 720 
effective scanning lines and the progressive format.
BD-J application
The BD-ROM format supports Java for 
interactive functions.
“BD-J” offers content providers almost 
unlimited functionality when creating 
interactive BD-ROM titles.
BD-R
BD-R (Blu-ray Disc Recordable) is a 
recordable, write-once Blu-ray Disc, available 
in the same capacities as the BD below. Since 
contents can be recorded and cannot be 
overwritten, a BD-R can be used to archive 
valuable data or store and distribute video 
material.
BD-RE
BD-RE (Blu-ray Disc Rewritable) is a 
recordable and rewritable Blu-ray Disc, 
available in the same capacities as the BD 
below. The re-recordable feature makes 
extensive editing and time-shifting applications 
possible.
BD-ROM
BD-ROMs (Blu-ray Disc Read-Only Memory) 
are commercially produced discs and are 
available in the same capacities as the BD 
below. Other than conventional movie and video 
contents, these discs have enhanced features 
such as interactive content, menu operations 
using pop-up menus, selection of subtitle 
display, and slideshow. Although a BD-ROM 
may contain any form of data, most BD-ROM 
discs will contain movies in High Definition 
format, for playback on Blu-ray Disc/DVD 
players.
Blu-ray Disc (BD)
A disc format developed for recording/playing 
high-definition (HD) video (for HDTV, etc.), 
and for storing large amounts of data. A single 
layer Blu-ray Disc holds up to 25 GB, and a 
dual-layer Blu-ray Disc holds up to 50 GB of 
data.
Digital Cinema Auto Calibration 
(D.C.A.C)
Digital Cinema Auto Calibration was developed 
by Sony to automatically measure and adjust the 
speaker settings to your listening environment in 
a short period of time. 
Dolby Digital
This movie theater sound format is more 
advanced than Dolby Surround Pro Logic. In 
this format, the surround speakers output stereo 
sound with an expanded frequency range, and a 
subwoofer channel for deep bass is 
independently provided. This format is also 
called “5.1” with the subwoofer channel 
designed as the 0.1 channel (since it functions 
only when a deep bass effect is needed). All six 
channels in this format are recorded separately 
for superior channel separation. Furthermore, 
since all the signals are processed digitally, less 
signal degradation occurs.
Dolby Digital Plus
Developed as an extension to Dolby Digital, the 
audio coding technology supports 7.1 multi-
channel surround sound.

Dolby Pro Logic II 
Dolby Pro Logic II creates five full-bandwidth 
output channels from 2 channel sources. This is 
done using an advanced, high-purity matrix 
surround decoder that extracts the spatial 
properties of the original recording without 
adding any new sounds or tonal colorations.
xMovie mode
The Movie mode is for use with stereo television 
shows and all programs encoded in Dolby 
Surround. The result is enhanced sound field 
directionality that approaches the quality of 
discrete 5.1-channel sound.
Dolby Surround Pro Logic
As one method of decoding Dolby Surround, 
Dolby Surround Pro Logic produces four 
channels from 2 channel sound. Compared with 
the former Dolby Surround system, Dolby 
Surround Pro Logic reproduces left-to-right 
panning more naturally and localizes sounds 
more precisely. To take full advantage of Dolby 
Surround Pro Logic, you should have one pair of 
surround speakers and a center speaker. The 
surround speakers output monaural sound.
Dolby TrueHD
Dolby TrueHD is a lossless coding technology 
that supports up to 8 channels of multi-channel 
surround sound for the next generation of optical 
discs. The reproduced sound is true to the 
original source bit-for-bit.
DTS
Digital audio compression technology 
developed by DTS, Inc. This technology 
conforms to 5.1-channel surround. This format 
includes a stereo rear channel and a discrete 
subwoofer channel. DTS provides the same 5.1 
discrete channels of high quality digital audio. 
The good channel separation is realized due to 
the all channel data being recorded discretely 
and processed in digitally.
DTS-HD High Resolution Audio
Developed as an extension to DTS Digital 
Surround format. It supports a maximum 
sampling frequency of 96 kHz, and 7.1 multi-
channel surround.
DTS-HD High Resolution Audio has a 
maximum transmission rate of 6 Mbps, with 
lossy compression.
DTS-HD Master Audio
DTS-HD Master Audio has a maximum 
transmission rate of 24.5 Mbps, and uses 
lossless compression, and DTS-HD Master 
Audio corresponds to a maximum sampling 
frequency of 192 kHz, and maximum of 7.1ch.
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia 
Interface)
HDMI is an interface that supports both video 
and audio on a single digital connection, 
allowing you to enjoy high quality digital 
picture and sound. The HDMI specification 
supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital 
Content Protection), a copy protection 
technology that incorporates coding technology 
for digital video signals. 
Interlace format
(Interlaced scanning)
The Interlace format is the NTSC standard 
method for displaying TV images at 30 frames 
per second. Each frame is scanned twice - 
alternately between the even numbered scanning 
lines and then odd numbered scanning lines, at 
60 times per second.
LTH (Low to High)
LTH is a recording system that supports organic 
pigment type BD-R.
Parental Control
A function of the BD/DVD to limit playback of 
the disc by the age of the users according to the 
limitation level in each country. The limitation 
varies from disc to disc; when it is activated, 
playback is completely prohibited, violent 
scenes are skipped or replaced with other scenes 
and so on.
PhotoTV HD
“PhotoTV HD” allows for highly-detailed 
pictures, and photo-like expression of subtle 
textures and colors. By connecting Sony 
“PhotoTV HD” compatible devices using an 
HDMI cable, a whole new world of photos can 
be enjoyed in breathtaking Full HD quality. For 
instance, the delicate texture of the human skin, 
flowers, sand and waves can now be displayed 
on a large screen in beautiful photo-like quality.

Pop-up menu
An enhanced menu operation available on BD-
ROMs. The pop-up menu appears when POP 
UP/MENU is pressed during playback, and can 
be operated while playback is in progress.
Progressive format
(sequential scanning)
In contrast to the Interlace format, the 
progressive format can reproduce 50 - 60 frames 
per second by reproducing all scanning lines 
(525 lines for the NTSC system). The overall 
picture quality increases and still images, text 
and horizontal lines appear sharper. This format 
is compatible with the 525 or 625 progressive 
format.
S-AIR
(Sony Audio Interactive Radio 
frequency)
Recent times have seen the rapid spread of BD/
DVD media, digital broadcasting, and other 
high-quality media.
To ensure that the subtle nuances of these high-
quality media are transmitted with no 
deterioration, Sony has developed a technology 
called “S-AIR” for the radio transmission of 
digital audio signals with no compression, and 
has incorporated this technology into the EZW-
RT10/EZW-RT10A/EZW-T100.
This technology transfers digital audio signals 
with no compression using the 2.4 GHz band 
range of ISM band (Industrial, Scientific, and 
Medical band), such as wireless LANs and 
Bluetooth applications.
24p True Cinema
Movies shot with a film camera consist of 24 
frames per second.
Since conventional televisions (both CRT and 
flat panels) display frames either at 1/60 or 1/50 
second intervals, the 24 frames do not appear at 
an even pace. 
When connected to a TV with 24p capabilities, 
the player displays each frame at 1/24 second 
intervals — the same interval originally shot 
with the film camera, thus faithfully reproducing 
the original cinema image.
