Chapter (page 19)
Sections of a movie 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 (page 7, 24)
Digital audio compression technology
developed by Dolby Laboratories. This
technology conforms to 5.1-channel surround
sound. The rear channel is stereo and there is a
discrete subwoofer channel in this format.
Dolby Digital provides the same 5.1 discrete
channels of high quality digital audio found in
Dolby Digital cinema audio systems. Good
channel separation is realized because all of the
channel data is recorded discretely and
processed in digital.
DTS (page 7, 24)
Digital audio compression technology that
Digital Theater Systems, Inc. developed. This
technology conforms to 5.1-channel surround
sound. The rear channel is stereo and there is a
discrete subwoofer channel in this format. DTS
provides the same 5.1 discrete channels of high
quality digital audio. Good channel separation
is realized because all of the channel data is
recorded discretely and processed in digital.
DVD-VIDEO (page 3, 15)
DVD VIDEO discs can contain up to 8 hours of
moving pictures on a disc with the same
diameter as a CD. The picture data uses the
MPEG 2 format, one of the worldwide
standards of digital compression technology.
Audio data is recorded in a multi-channel
format allowing you to enjoy a more real audio
presence. DVD VIDEO discs also can contain
advanced functions such as multiple viewing
angles, multilingual tracks and Parental
Control playback restrictions.
DVD-RW
DVD-RW is a recordable and rewritable disc
that is the same size as a DVD VIDEO disc.
DVD-RW discs have two modes: VR mode and
Video mode.
•Video mode - complies with DVD-VIDEO
format and is compatible with most DVD
players once finalized, whereas a DVD-RW
recorded in VR mode can only be played on
DVD-RW compliant DVD players.
•VR (Video Recording) mode - enables various
programming and editing functions, some of
which are not available in Video mode.
DVD+RW
DVD+RW (read “plus RW”) is a recordable and
rewritable disc. DVD+RW discs use a recording
format that is comparable to the DVD VIDEO
format.
DVD material
DVD material can be divided into two types:
video based material and film based material.
Video based material is recorded at 30 frames
(60 fields) per second, and is normally used for
TV programs. Film based material is recorded
at 24 video images per second, and is used for
most movies. Some DVDs contain both video
based and film based material.
MPEG AUDIO (page 25)
International standard coding system to
compress audio digital signals authorised by
ISO/IEO.
Parental Control (page 23)
A function of the DVD used to restrict playback
of the disc according to the age of the user and
the restriction level in each country. The
restriction varies from disc to disc; when it is
activated, playback can be completely
prohibited, violent scenes are skipped or
replaced with other scenes, and so on.
Progressive scan
Compared to standard interlace mode that
alternatively shows every other line of an
image to create one frame, progressive scan
shows the entire image at once as a single
frame. This means that while interlace mode
can show 30 frames per second, progressive
scan can show 60. The overall picture quality
increases and still images, text and horizontal
lines appear sharper.
Title (page 19)
The longest section of a movie or a music piece
on a DVD; a movie, etc., for a picture piece on
video software; or an album, etc., for a music
piece on audio software. Each title is assigned
a title number enabling you to locate the title
you want.
