105EN Disc Management Recording Playback Introduction Connections Basic Setup Editing Function Setup VCR Function Others Analog Audio An electrical signal that directly represents sound. Compare this to digital audio which can be an electrical signal, but is an indirect representation of sound. S ee also “Digital Audio”. Aspect Ratio The width of a TV screen relative to its height. Conventional TVs are 4:3 (in other words, the TV screen is almost square); widescreen models are 16:9 (the TV screen is almost twice as wide as it is high).

Component Video Output Each signal of luminance (Y ) and comp onent (PB/CB, PR/ CR) is ind ep end ent to outp ut so that you can experience p icture color as it is. Also, due to compatibility with progressive v ideo (480p), you can experience higher-density p icture than that in interlace (480i). Digital Audio An indirect representation of sound by numbers. D uring recording, the sound is measured at discrete intervals (44,100 times a second for CD audio) by an analog- to-digital converter, generating a stream of numbers. On playback, a digital-to-analog converter generates an analog signal based on these numbers. S ee also “Sampling F requency” and “Analog A udio”. DivX® DivX® is a codec (compression/decompression) that can compress images to a v ery small amount of data. Dolby® Digital The system to compress d igital sound developed by Dolby L aboratories. I t offers you sound of stereo(2ch) or multi channel audio. DTS® (Digital Theater System) DTS is a multi channel surround sound system. By connecting to DTS decoder you can enjoy d ynamic and realistic sound like movie theatre. DTS surround sound technologies were developed by DTS, Inc.

It can transmit component v ideo, audio, and control signal with one cable connection. JPEG (joint photographic experts group) JPEG is a method of compressing still image files. You can copy J PEG files on CD-RW/-R from a computer and play back the files on this unit. MP3 (MPEG audio layer 3) MP3 is a method of compressing files. You can copy M P3 files on CD-RW/-R from the computer and play back the files on this unit. PCM (pulse code modulation) The most common system of encoding d igital audio, found on CD and DAT. Excellent q uality, but requires a lot of d ata compared to formats such as Dolby D igital and MPEG audio. For compatibility with digital audio recorders (CD, MD and DAT) and AV amplifiers with digital inputs, this unit can convert D olby Digital and MPEG audio to PCM. S ee also “Digital Audio”. Progressive Scan (480p) A type of display that does not split each frame into fields, and instead scans directly through all the scanlines of each frame in order. Progressive scan provides l ess flickering and higher image resolution than traditional (480i) TV signals. Refer to page 9 2 for instructions on selective p rogressive scan mode. Region Code Regions associate d iscs and players with particular areas of the world. T his unit will only play back discs that have compatible region codes. Y ou can find the region code of your unit by looking on the rear p anel. S ome discs are compatible with more than one region (or all regions). Sampling Frequency The rate which sound is measured by a specified interval to turn into d igital audio d ata. The numbers of sampling in one second defines as sampling frequency. T he higher the rate, the better the sound quality. SAP (secondary audio program) Sub-audio channel which is delivered separately from main-audio channel. This audio channel is used as an alternate in bilingual broadcasting. S-Video Output It delivers independently each signal of color(C) and luminance(Y) to TV as video signals, so that higher-quality picture will be gained.
