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.
Dolby Digital
This sound format for movie theaters is more advanced that Dolby
Pro Logic Surround. In this format, the rear speakers output ste-
reo sound with an expanded 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. Furtheremore, since all
the signals are processed digitally, less signal degradation occurs.
The name “AC-3” comes from the fact that it is the third audio
coding method to be developed by the Dolby Laboratories Li-
censing Corporation.
Dolby Pro Logic Surround
As one method of decoding Dolby Surround, Dolby Pro Logic
Surround produces four channels from two-channel sound. Com-
pared with the former Dolby Surround system, Dolby Pro Logic
Surround reproduces left-to-right panning more naturally and lo-
calizes sounds more precisely. To take full advantage of Dolby
Pro Logic Surround, you should have one pair of rear speakers
and a center speaker. The rear speakers output monaural sound.
DTS
Digital audio compression technology that the Digital Theater
Systems, Inc. developed. This technology conforms to 5.1-chan-
nel surround. The rear channel is stereo and there is discrete
subwoofer channel in this format. DTS provides the same 5.1
discrete channels of high quality digital audio. The good channel
separation is realized because the all channel data is recorded
discrete and processed in digital.
MPEG AUDIO
International standard coding system to compress audio digital
signals authorized by ISO/IEC. MPEG 1 conforms to up to 2-
channel stereo. MPEG 2 used on DVDs conforms to up to 7.1-
channel surround.
