Bit stream

The digital data generated by the various encoding processes.

C

Color variation signal

A signal that removes the brightnes signal from the G/ B/R signals and represents the hue and density.

Component

A video format that takes three separate video inputs with information for the three primary colors of light to create the video signal. There are G/B/R, Y/PB/PR and other formats.

Composite

D

Decode

The process of decoding a signal that has been encoded in a format standard, so that it restores to the original signal.

Dolby Digital

The Dolby Digital (AC-3) format developed to produce theater-like surround sound for household systems. Consists of a maximum of 5.1 channels, three front channels, two rear channels, and a 0.1 subwoofer channel.

Downmix

This function converts multichannel (three channels or more) sound formats for audio tracks to two stereo channels. This is usually performed when the number of program channels is larger than the number of speakers.

DTS (Digital Theater System)

A new surround format that holds more data than Dolby Digital to provide even better surround playback.

The number of channels is the same 5.1 channel of Dolby Digital but the use of a better audio compression ratio during digital recording means that it has higher S/ N playback. It also has a wider dynamic range for delicate sound separation.

E

Encode

The process of encoding a signal to meet a standard.

Extended K2 Processing

20 bit K2 processing extends 16 bit signals to 20 bit to improve signal resolution, and also expands the sampling frequency by two to improve the frequency band during playback. This allows better sound reproduction of the subtle nuances of the original for more realistic sound playback.

Version 2.0 further expands this capability to 24 bit 176.4kHz/192kHz.

G

Geographical region playback control (Regional

code)

A system that only allows playback of a disc in predetermined geographical regions. There are eight regions in the world, and each region has a number (Region No.) If the region number on the disc matches the region number assigned to the player, you can play the disc.

L

Letterbox

A technique for displaying wide screen video on a 4:3 TV without clipping the image by projecting a black, or other color, mask across the top and bottom parts of the screen. It is called by this name, since the appearance is similar to a letterbox.
