Progressive format (NTSC) (page 76)
Compared to the Interlace format that
alternately shows every other line of an
image (field) to create one frame, the
Progressive format shows the entire image at
once as a single frame. This means that
while the Interlace format can show 30
frames (60 fields) in one second, the
Progressive format can show 60 frames in
one second. The overall picture quality
increases and still images, text, and
horizontal lines appear sharper.

Super Audio CD (page 6)
A Super Audio CD disc can reproduce
sounds that are extremely faithful to the
original sound by use of DSD (Direct Stream
Digital) technology. This technology utilizes
a sampling frequency of 2.8224 MHz, which
is 64 times that of a conventional CD, and 1-
bit quantization that enables the disc to hold
4 times the amount of information that a
standard PCM format CD can hold. Super
Audio CDs are divided into the following
types.
