Index (CD) / Video Index (VIDEO CD)
A number that divides a track into sections to
easily locate the point you want on a VIDEO
CD or a CD. Depending on the disc, no indexes
may be recorded.
Multi-angle function
Various angles, or viewpoints of the video
camera, for a scene are recorded on some
DVDs.
Multilingual function
Several languages for the sound or subtitles in a
picture are recorded on some DVDs.
Parental Control
A function of the 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.
Playback Control (PBC)
Signals encoded on VIDEO CDs (Version 2.0)
to control playback. By using menu screens
recorded on VIDEO CDs with PBC functions,
you can enjoy playing simple interactive
programs, programs with search functions, and
so on.
Progressive format
Compared to the Interlace format that
alternately shows every other line of an image
(field) to create one frame, the Progressive
format shows the entire image at once as a
single frame. This means that while the
Interlace format can show 30 frames (60 fields)
in one second, the Progressive format can show
60 frames in one second. The overall picture
quality increases and still images, text, and
horizontal lines appear sharper. This player is
compatible with the 480 progressive format.
Region Code
This system is used to protect copyrights. A
region number is allocated on each DVD
system or DVD disc according to the sales
region. Each region code is shown on the
system as well as on the disc packaging. The
system can play the discs that match its region
code. The system can also play discs with the
“
ALL” mark. Even when the region code is not
shown on the DVD, the region limit may still
be activated.
Scene
On a VIDEO CD with PBC functions (page
25), the menu screens, moving pictures, and
still pictures are divided into sections called
“scenes”.
Super Audio CD (SACD)
This audio format is based upon the current
audio CD standards but includes a greater
amount of information which provides higher
quality sound. There are three types of discs:
single layer, double layer and hybrid discs. The
hybrid disc contains both standard audio CD
and Super Audio CD information.
Title
The longest sections of a picture or a music
piece on a DVD; a movie, etc., for a picture
piece on video software; or an album, etc., for a
music piece on an audio software.

							72GB
Track
Sections of a picture or a music piece on a CD,
VIDEO CD, Super Audio CD or MP3.
VIDEO CD
A compact disc that contains moving pictures.
The picture data uses the MPEG 1 format, one
of the worldwide standards of digital
compression technology. The picture data is
compressed to about 1/140 of its original size.
Consequently, a 12 cm VIDEO CD can contain
up to 74 minutes of moving pictures.
VIDEO CDs also contain compact audio data.
Sounds outside the range of human hearing are
compressed while the sounds we can hear are
not compressed. VIDEO CDs can hold 6 times
the audio information of conventional audio
CDs.
There are 2 versions of VIDEO CDs.
•Version 1.1: You can play only moving pictures
and sounds.
•Version 2.0: You can play high-resolution still
pictures and enjoy PBC functions.
This system conforms to both versions.
