Glossary
B.S.P.
Static pictures from DVD audios may include not only 
the pictures displayed automatically together with the 
audio playback, but also the pictures that can be 
optionally selected by users. These pictures are 
called B.S.P (Browsable Still Picture).
Component
This is one of the video signals and refers to the 
signal of the three primary colors of light (R/G/B) and 
the other picture signal (color difference signal: Y /CB/
CR) that has been efficiently converted based on R/
G/B. Since each signal is transmitted via a separate 
signal line, it makes it possible to transmit high quality 
pictures.
Dolby Digital
This is one of the surround modes. It is capable of 
dealing with up to 5.1 channel in total, which includes 
front 3-channel, surround 2-channel, and sub-woofer 
0.1-channel.
Dolby Surround
This is one of the surround modes. It records the total 
4-channel sound signals of front surround into 2-
channel signals and then converts them back to 4-
channel signals via a special decoder when they are 
played back. Since the sounds are recorded with 2-
channel, you can produce natural sounds even if you 
connect it to stereo equipment.
Down Mix
This refers to the function that allows you to play back 
the multi-channel sound tracks recorded with a 
surround mode (3 or greater channels), mixing with 
stereo 2-channel sounds. 
D-Range Control
This function allows you to understand relatively low 
sounds such as dialog clearly, even if you turn down 
the volume of the TV in a loud volume scene, when 
playing a DVD video recorded with Dolby Digital.
DTS (Digital Theater System)
This is one of the surround modes that offer a 
maximum 5.1ch (same as Dolby Digital). Since this 
format uses low sound compression rate, thicker 
sounds with less noise can be produced. 
Dynamic Range
This refers to the difference between the largest point 
and the smallest point of the sound level.
Interlace Scanning (Jump Scanning) 
This is a traditional video format, mainly used by TV.
JPEG (Joint Photographic coding Experts Group)
This is a static picture information compression 
format this is used widely for Internet and digital 
cameras.
Linear PCM Sound
This is one of the methods that convert analog sound 
signals into digital sound signals. It does not require 
compression at all at the time of conversion.
MLP (Meridian Lossless Packing)
This is a name of the multi-channel sound 
compression format employed by DVD audios. The 
compression ratio is about 1/2, and the compressed 
data can be completely restored because a reversible 
data compression method is available. It allows you to 
play back high quality sounds.
MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer-3)
This is the international standard for sound 
information compression format that allows you to 
compress data to one tenth its original size, without 
greatly impairing the original sound quality.
MPEG Audio
This is a surround format that allows you to compress 
sound data. It is capable of handling a maximum 7.1 
channels.
NTSC
This is the TV/video format used in countries such as 
Japan and the U.S. In European countries, other 
formats (PAL or SECAM) are used. Since the number 
of frames and the number of scanning lines are 
different, the two formats are incompatible with each 
other.
Packet write method
This is one of the methods used to record data onto 
CD-R/RW that allows you to further divide tracks 
before recording, depending on the free space 
available on the disc. This unit is unable to play back 
the sounds on CD-R/RW discs that have been 
recorded using this method.
PBC (Playback Control)
This is the signal recorded with Video CDs (Version2) 
to control the playback operation. You can use the 
menu screen of recorded PBC enabled video CDs to 
run interactive software and software with searching 
capabilities. Furthermore, with video CDs on which 
high definition still pictures are recorded, it allows you 
to playback the still picture using resolution more than 
four times larger than that for playing moving pictures. 
Progressive scanning method (sequential 
scanning)
This is the scanning method, used with DVD videos 
and others, that enables you to display high quality 
pictures without the flickering that normally 
accompanies pictures produced using the interlacing 
scanning method.
Region Number (Managing areas where tracks 
can be played)
This refers to the system in which tracks on a disc can 
be played only in the specified areas. You cannot play 
tracks on a disc if the region number on the disc and 
the region number on the DVD player do not 
correspond.
Resume Playback
It refers to resuming playback from the point where 
you have paused. 
Screen Saver
Displaying a still picture on a TV screen for a long 
time may sometimes cause screen burning, leaving a 
burned-in image of the still picture. The screen saver 
function prevents it from occurring.
VFP (Video Fine Processor) function 
This is our original function that enables fine-tuning 
(adjustment) of pictures. It allows you to adjust items 
such as gamma correction to select brightness, 
contrast, and intermediate brightness of the pictures, 
depending on the preferences you make for your 
software or room conditions. It even enables you to 
display smooth pictures with deep tones, thus 
producing a level of picture quality in movie films that 
has been difficult to achieve so far.  
WMA (Acronyms for Windows MediaR Audio)
This is the sound compression format developed by 
Microsoft Corporation in the U.S.
