94RQT8346GlossaryMPEG2 (Moving Picture Experts Group)A standard for efficiently compressing and expanding color video.MPEG2 is a compression standard used for DVD and satellite baseddigital broadcasting. This unit records programs using MPEG2.MPEG2 moving picture files shot with a Panasonic SD multi-camera,etc. can be copied to the HDD or a DVD-RAM disc.MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3)An audio compression method that compresses audio to approximatelyone tenth of its size without any considerable loss of audio quality. Youcan play MP3 you have recorded onto CD-R and CD-RW.Pan&Scan/LetterboxIn general, DVD-Video are produced with the intention that they beviewed on a widescreen television (16:9 aspect ratio), so imagesoften don’t fit regular (4:3 aspect ratio) televisions. Two styles ofpicture, “Pan & Scan” and “Letterbox”, deal with this problem.Pan&Scan: The sides are cut off so the picture fillsthe screen.Letterbox: Black bands appear at the top andbottom of the picture so the picture itselfappears in an aspect ratio of 16:9.Playback control (PBC)If a Video CD has playback control, you can select scenes andinformation with menus. (This unit is compatible with version 2.0 and 1.1.)Progressive/InterlaceNTSC, the video signal standard, has 480 interlaced (i) scan lines,whereas progressive scanning uses twice the number of scan lines.This is called 480p. Using progressive output, you can enjoy thehigh-resolution video recorded on media such as DVD-Video.Your television must be compatible to enjoy progressive video.ProtectionYou can prevent accidental erasure by setting writing protection ordeletion protection.Sampling frequencySampling is the process of converting the heights of sound wave (analogsignal) samples taken at set periods into digits (digital encoding).Sampling frequency is the number of samples taken per second, solarger numbers mean more faithful reproduction of the original sound.ThumbnailThis refers to a miniature representation of a picture used to displaymultiple pictures in the form of a list.TIFF (Tag Image File Format)This is a system used for compressing/decoding color still pictures, acommon format for storing high quality images on digital camerasand other devices.1080iIn one high definition image, 1080 alternating scan lines pass every1/60 th of a second to create an interlace image. Because 1080i morethan doubles current television broadcasts of 480i, the detail is muchclearer and creates a more realistic and rich image.720pIn one high definition image, 720 scan lines pass at the same timeevery 1/60 th of a second to create a progressive image. Sinceprogressive video does not alternate scan lines like interlace, thereis a minimal amount of screen flicker.1.
