44 Glossary

Analog: Sound that has not been turned into numbers. Analog sound varies, while digital sound has specific 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 OUT Jacks: Jacks on the rear of the Player that send audio to another system (TV, Stereo, etc.).

CD: Compact Disc.

Chapter: A part of a Title.

COAXIAL jack: Sends digital audio to a Stereo, allowing you to 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, for example PAL, SECAM, and NTSC. NTSC is the most common color system in the United States of America.

Component Video Y Pb Pr Jacks: Green, blue, and red jacks on the rear of the Player that send high- quality video to a TV that has Component Video In jacks.

Digital: Sound that has been converted into numerical values. Digital sound is available when you use the Player’s COAXIAL jack, which sends audio through multiple channels instead of two channels as analog does.

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

DVD: Digital Video Disc.

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.)

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.”

PBC: Playback Control. A special feature on some Video CDs/Super Video CDs that enables interactive use.

PCM: Pulse Code Modulation. A digital audio encoding system.

RGB: Red-Green-Blue. A top-quality video connection where red, green, and blue components of the pic- ture are carried through separate wires. This also is referred to as the component video connection.

S-Video: Produces a clearer picture by sending separate signals for the luminance and the color.

Title: A unit of recording on a DVD.

VCD: Video Compact Disc.

VIDEO OUT Jack: Jack on the rear of the Player that sends video (picture) to a TV.

Widescreen: A TV aspect ratio setting (16:9). Displays the video appropriately when you connect the Player to a widescreen TV.
