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. See 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).
Chapter
Just as a book is split up into several chapters, a title on a 
DVD is usually divided into chapters. See also “Title”.
Component Video Output
Each signal of luminance (Y) and component (PB/CB, PR/
CR) is independent to output so that you can experience 
picture color as it is.
Also, due to compatibility with progressive video (480p), 
you can experience higher-density picture than that in 
interlace (480i).
Digital Audio
An indirect representation of sound by numbers. During 
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. See also 
“Sampling Frequency” and “Analog Audio”.
DivX®
DivX® is a codec (compression/decompression) that can 
compress images to a very small amount of data. 
Dolby® Digital
The system to compress digital sound developed by 
Dolby Laboratories. It 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 dynamic and 
realistic sound like movie theatre. DTS surround sound 
technologies were developed by DTS, Inc.
