(Y: green) and chrominance (PB: blue, PR: red). Connect
VIDEO OUT (COMPONENT) jacks of this unit to the
component input jacks of your AV receiver, and then to
those of your TV using a commercially available
component cable. Observe the color of each jack when
you make connections.

GLOSSARY
■ Aspect ratio

■ Dolby Digital

Horizontal and vertical ratio of a displayed image. The
horizontal vs. vertical ratio of conventional TV is 4:3, and
that of wide-screens is 16:9.

Digital surround sound system which is developed by
Dolby Laboratories provides completely independent
multi-channel audio. With 3 front channels (left, center,
and right) and 2 surround stereo channels, Dolby Digital
provides five full-range audio channels. With an additional
channel especially for bass effects (called LFE, or low
frequency effect), the system has a total of 5.1-channels
(LFE is counted as 0.1 channel). By using 2-channel
stereo for the surround speakers, more accurate moving
sound effects and surround sound environment are
possible than with Dolby Surround.

■ Bit
Short for binary digit. Represents the smallest unit of
information manipulated on a computer. In audio systems,
the bit size determines resolution to digitize analog
signals.
The larger the bit size, the larger the dynamic range (the
ratio of maximum and minimum frequency level) and the
finer the sounds. Generally, an audio CD is 16 bit and
DVD audio is 24 bit.

■ Bit rate
The amount of data used to hold a given length of music;
measured in kilobits per second, or kbps. Also, the speed
at which you record. Generally, the higher the bit rate, or
recording speed, the better the sound quality. However,
higher bit rates use more space on a disc.

■ Component video jacks
Jacks for inputting or outputting a component video
signal.Component video signal consists of three lines, the
luminance signal (Y) and two color difference signals (PB/
CB, PR/CR), which enable to provide high-quality video.

■ DivX
DivX is a popular media technology created by DivX, inc.
DivX media files contain highly compressed video with
high visual quality that maintains a relatively small file
size. DivX files can also include advanced media features
like menus, subtitles, and alternate audio tracks. Many
DivX media files are available for download online, and
you can create your own using your personal content and
easy-to-use tools from DivX.com.

■ DTS (Digital Theater Systems)
Digital surround sound system developed by Digital
Theater Systems, Inc., which provides 5.1 channel audio
(max). With an abundance of audio data, it is able to
provide authentic-sounding effects.

■ DVD-Audio
It has developed for the sole purpose of creating high
quality pure sound with Linear PCM and Packed PCM
(lossless coding) in up to six audio-channels. Sampling
frequencies of 192 kHz/24 bits are supported.

■ HDMI
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the first
industry-supported, uncompressed, all-digital A/V (audio/
video) interface. Providing an interface between any A/V
source (such as a set-top box or A/V receiver) and an
audio/video monitor (such as a digital television – DTV),
HDMI supports standard, enhanced or high-definition
video as well as multi-channel digital audio using a single
cable.
HDMI transmits all ATSC HDTV standards and supports
8-channel digital audio, with bandwidth to spare to
accommodate future enhancements and requirements.

■ Region code

The most common type of scanning used in televisions. It
divides a screen into even and odd numbered fields for
scanning, and then builds an image by combining them
into one image (frame).

Many DVD discs include a region code so that the
copyright owner can control DVD software distribution
only to regions where they are ready to distribute. There
are six regions codes, which restrict a DVD player to
playing a DVD disc with the same region code.

■ JPEG (Joint Photographic Expert Group)
A standardized image compression system proposed by
the Joint Photographic Expert Group. It can reduce image
data sizes to 1 to 10% of their original sizes, and works on
digital photographs effectively.

■ MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3)
An audio file compression technology. It can reduce audio
data sizes to about 10% of their original sizes while
maintaining CD-level audio quality.

■ MPEG (Moving Pictures Experts Group)
International standard for digital video and audio
compression generated by ISO (International Organization
for Standardization) and IEC (International
Electrotechnical Commission).
Includes MPEG-1, MPEG-2, and MPEG-3. MPEG-1
offers VHS level video quality and is often used on video
CDs. MPEG-2 offers S-VHS level video quality and is
often used on DVDs.

■ S-video jack
A jack for inputting or outputting an S-video signal.
S-video signal consists of two lines, the luminance signal
(Y) and color signal (C), which enable to provide highquality video during playback or recording.

■ Super Audio CD
Audio format based upon the current CD standards but
includes a greater amount of information that provides
higher quality sound. There are three types of discs: single
layer, dual layer and hybrid discs. The hybrid disc can be
played on existing CD players as well as Super Audio CD
players since it contains both standard audio CD and
Super Audio CD information.
Super Audio CD Disc
Hybrid layer disc
Dual layer disc
Single layer disc

■ Parental control
Limits Disc play according to the age of the users or the
limitation level in each country. The limitation varies from
disc to disc; when it is activated, playback will be
prohibited if the software’s level is higher than the user-set
level.

CD layer
HD layer

Hybrid Super Audio CD Disc
1 CD layer that plays on any

High Density layer containing:

■ Playback control (PBC)
An on-screen menu recorded on a Video CD or SVCD that
enables interactive playback and searching.

■ Progressive Scan
A method of displaying all scanning lines in a frame at
once, reducing flicker noticeable on a larger screen and
creating a sharp and smooth image.

*1: If the connected HDMI component does not support bitstream signals (Dolby Digital, DTS, and MPEG), the audio

output is automatically changed from bitstream signals to PCM signals.
*2: If the HDMI component does not support multi-channel audio signals, the audio output is automatically changed

from PCM multi-channel signals to PCM stereo signals and 48 kHz/16 bits signals or less.
*3: If the audio source is prohibited downmixing, the front L/R channel audio and 48 kHz/16 bits signals or less are

output instead of downmixed stereo.
*4: If the connected component does not support more than 48 kHz, the audio output is automatically changed to 48 kHz/

16 bits signals or less.
