Analog Audio
An electrical signal that directly represents sound.
Compare this to digital audio which can be an electrical 
signal, but is an indirect representation of sound. See also 
“Digital Audio”.
Aspect Ratio
The width of a TV screen relative to its height.
Conventional TVs are 4:3 (in other words, the TV screen is 
almost square); widescreen models are 16:9 (the TV screen 
is almost twice as wide as its height).

the features such as high-definition videos, multi-channel

Chapter
Just as a book is split up into several chapters, a title on a 
BD-video or DVD-video is usually divided into chapters.
See also “Title”.
Digital Audio
An indirect representation of sound by numbers. During 
recording, the sound is measured at discrete intervals 
(44,100 times a second for CD audio) by an 
analog-to-digital converter, generating a stream of numbers. 
On playback, a digital-to-analog converter generates an 
analog signal based on these numbers. See also “Sampling 
Frequency” and “Analog Audio”.
