Glossary

Bit rate

Value indicating the amount of video data compressed in a DVD per second. The unit is Mbps (Mega bit per second). 1 Mbps indicates that the data per second is 1,000,000 bits. The higher the bit rate is, the larger the amount of data. However, this does not always mean that you can get higher quality pictures.

Chapter

Sections of a picture or a music piece on a DVD that are smaller than titles. A title is composed of several chapters. Each chapter is assigned a chapter number enabling you to locate the chapter you want.

Digital Cinema Sound (DCS)

This is the generic name of the surround

sound produced by digital signal processing

technology developed by Sony. Unlike

previous surround sound fields mainly

directed at the reproduction of music,

Digital Cinema Sound is designed

specifically for the enjoyment of movies.

Dolby Digital

E XX

(xx is a number)

This sound format for movie theaters is

Additional

output stereo sound with an expanded

Information

frequency range and a subwoofer channel

for deep bass is independently provided.

This format is also called “5.1” because the

subwoofer channel is counted as 0.1 channel

(since it functions only when a deep bass

 

effect is needed). All six channels in this

 

format are recorded separately to realize

 

superior channel separation. Furthermore,

 

since all the signals are processed digitally,

 

less signal degradation occurs.
