Aspect ratio

This is the width-to-height ratio of a TV screen. A regular display has an aspect ratio of 4:3. Wide screen displays have an aspect ratio of 16:9, providing a bigger picture for exceptional presence and atmosphere.

Bit rate

This expresses data volume per second, or bps (bits per second) units. The higher the rate, the more information is available to reproduce the sound. Using the same encoding method (such as MP3), the higher the rate, the better the sound.

Chapter

DVD titles are in turn divided into chapters which are numbered in the same way as the chapters of a book. With DVD video discs fea- turing chapters, you can quickly find a desired scene with chapter search.

Dolby Digital

Dolby Digital provides multi-channel audio from up to 5.1 independent channels. This is the same as the Dolby Digital surround sound system used in theaters.

Dolby Pro Logic II

Dolby Pro Logic II can create five full-band- width output channels from two-channel sources. This new technology enables a dis- crete 5-channel playback with 2 front chan- nels, 1 center channel, and 2 rear channels. A music mode is also available for 2-channel sources in addition to the movie mode.

DTS

This stands for Digital Theater Systems. DTS is a surround system delivering multi-channel audio from up to 6 independent channels.
