AC-3:Audio Coding 3, also known as Dolby Digital; a multi-channel digital audio compression system from Dolby Labs.

Analog: Sound that has not been turned into numbers.Analog sound varies, while digital sound has spe- cific numerical values.Analog sound is available when you use the red and white audio jacks on your equipment.These jacks send audio through two channels, the left and right.

AUDIO Jacks: Red and white jacks that send audio to other equipment (TV, Stereo, etc.) (OUT) or receive sound from other equipment (IN).

Coaxial DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack: Sends digital audio to a Stereo, letting you adjust the volume at the Stereo.The Stereo must have a Coaxial In jack.This connection provides the 5.1 channel surround sound as heard in movie theaters.

Color system: There are various systems for transmitting television signals or a DVD picture, for example PAL, SECAM, and NTSC. NTSC is the most common color system in the United States of America. The Recorder automatically selects the correct color system of DVDs.

COMPONENT VIDEO Jacks: The OUT jacks send high-quality video to a TV that has Component Video In jacks.The IN jacks allow the Recorder to receive high-quality video from other equipment, such as a DVD Player. The OUT jacks are also compatible with Progressive Scan (if your TV has Progressive Scan).

Digital: Sound that has been converted into numerical values. Digital sound is available when you use the Coaxial DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack on the Recorder. Sound is distributed through multiple channels.

Digital Video or i.LINK: Also known as ‘FireWire ’and ‘IEEE 1394.’ A cable for transfer of high band- width digital signals as used by Digital Video camcorders or some Personal Computers.

Dolby Digital: A surround sound system that provides 5.1 channel sound as used in movie theaters.

Letterbox: Widescreen format; a TV aspect ratio setting (4:3). Displays the video in full-width, with black bars at the top and bottom of the TV screen.This format is similar to seeing a movie in a theater. If the Disc does not include a letterbox format, selecting 4:3 letterbox may have no effect. (For example, some DVDs are two-sided, with one side playing in widescreen format and the other side playing in a normal format.)

MPEG: Motion Picture Experts Group.A collection of compression systems for digital audio and video.

OTR: One-Touch Recording. Start a timed recording by pushing just one button; select the switch-off time in intervals of 30 minutes.

Pan & Scan: A TV aspect ratio setting (4:3). Displays the video with full-height picture, with one or both sides of the picture trimmed to fit on your TV screen. Some movie companies refer to this as “reformatting the picture to fit your TV screen.”
