Glossary
Analog audio: Sound that has not been 
turned into numbers. Analog sound is 
available if you use the AUDIO LEFT/RIGHT. 
These red and white jacks send audio 
through two channels, the left and right.
Aspect ratio: Aspect ratio refers to the 
length to height ratio of TV screens.  The 
ratio of a standard TV is 4:3, while the ratio 
of a high-defi nition or wide TV is 16:9.  The 
letter box allows you to enjoy a picture with 
a wider perspective on a standard 4:3 screen.
AUDIO IN jacks: Red and white jacks on 
the back of the unit that receive audio from 
another system (TV, Stereo, etc.).
Bit Rate: The amount of data used to hold 
a given length of music; measured in kilobits 
per second, or kbps. Or, the speed at which 
you record. Generally, the higher the bit 
rate, or the higher the recording speed, the 
better the sound quality. However, higher bit 
rates use more space on a disc.
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.
Composite video (CVBS): A single video 
signal commonly used in most consumer 
video products.
Disc menu: A screen display prepared for 
allowing a selection of images, sounds, 
subtitles, multi-angles, etc., recorded on a 
DVD.
DivX: The DivX code is a patent-pending, 
MPEG-4 based video compression 
technology, developed by DivX Networks, 
Inc., that can shrink digital video to sizes 
small enough to be transported over the 
internet, while maintaining high visual quality.
Dolby Digital: A surround sound system 
developed by Dolby Laboratories containing 
up to six channels of digital audio (front left 
and right, surround left and right, center and 
subwoofer.)
Dolby Surround Pro Logic II: It is an 
improved matrix decoding technology that 
provides better spatiality and directionality 
on Dolby Surround program material, 
provides a convincing three dimensional 
sound fi eld on conventional stereo music 
recordings and is ideally suited to bring the 
surround experience to automotive sound. 
While conventional surround programming 
is fully compatible with Dolby Surround Pro 
Logic II decoders, soundtracks will be able to 
be encoded specifi cally to take full advantage 
of Pro Logic II playback, including separate 
left and right surround channels. (Such 
material is also compatible with conventional 
Pro Logic decoders.)
EasyLink: Philips EasyLink uses the HDMI 
CEC industry standard protocol to share 
functionalities between the unit and its 
connected devices. This feature is only 
available if you connect this unit to a HDMI 
CEC compliant TV with a HDMI cable.  
HDMI:  High-Defi nition Multimedia 
Interface (HDMI) is a high-speed digital 
interface that can transmit uncompressed 
high defi nition video and digital multichannel 
audio.  It delivers perfect picture and sound 
quality, completely free from noise.  HDMI is 
fully backward-compatible with DVI.
As required by the HDMI standard, 
connecting to HDMI or DVI products 
without HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital 
Content Protection) will result in no Video 
or Audio output.
