Introduction

MPEG – a type of data compression used for audio or video storage on disc.

MP3 MPEG-1 Layer III audio. This is a compressed audio format that allows you to record many hours of music on a single CD.

NTSC – An acronym for National Television System Committee. The organization that devel- oped both the American Black & White and Color television system.

PAL – An acronym for Phase Alternate Line. This is one of several composite video systems. The PAL format is used extensively in Western Europe.

PCM – An uncompressed, digitally coded representation of an analog signal. This is the form of the digital audio signal used for both CD and laserdisc. It is a serial data stream that is coded for transmission or recording. PCM is also used for many other types of serial data communications.

S-video– A video interface standard that carries separate luminance and chrominance signals, usually on a four-pin mini-DIN connector. Also called Y/C. The quality of S-video is significantly better than composite video since it does not require a comb filter to separate the signals. Most high-end televisions have S-video inputs.

Title – numbered elements of the DVD contents, which may include more than the movie alone.

Track – Individual selections recorded on an audio tape or disc.
