RQT815236 ReferenceGlossaryBitstreamThis is the digital form of multi-channel audio data (e.g., 5.1 channel)before it is decoded into its various channels.CPRM (Content Protection for Recordable Media)CPRM is technology used to protect broadcasts that are allowed tobe recorded only once. Such broadcasts can be recorded only withCPRM compatible recorders and discs.Dolby DigitalThis is a method of coding digital signals developed by DolbyLaboratories. Apart from stereo (2-channel) audio, these signals canalso be multi-channel audio. A large amount of audio information canbe recorded on one disc using this method.DTS (Digital Theater Systems)This surround system is used in many movie theaters. There is goodseparation between the channels, so realistic sound effects arepossible.Dynamic rangeDynamic range is the difference between the lowest level of soundthat can be heard above the noise of the equipment and the highestlevel of sound before distortion occurs. Dynamic range compressionmeans reducing the gap between the loudest and softest sounds.This means you can listen at low volumes but still hear dialog clearly.Film and videoDVD-Video are recorded using either film or video. This unit candetermine which type has been used, then uses the most suitablemethod of progressive output.• Film is 24 or 30 frames per second, with motion picture filmgenerally being 24 frames per second.• Video is 60 fields per second (two fields making up one frame).FinalizeA process that makes play of a recorded CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, etc.possible on equipment that can play such media. You can finalizeDVD-R, DVD-RW (DVD-Video format) or +R on this unit.After finalizing, the disc becomes play-only and you can no longerrecord or edit. You can record after formatting although it becomesplay-only after finalizing, when you use DVD-RW.FormattingFormatting is the process of making media such as DVD-RAMrecordable on recording equipment.You can format DVD-RAM or DVD-RW (only as DVD-Video format)on this unit.Formatting irrevocably erases all contents.Frames and fieldsFrames refer to the single images that constitute the video you seeon your television. Each frame consists of two fields.• A frame still shows two fields, so there may be some blurring, butpicture quality is generally better.• A field still shows less picture information so it may be rougher, butthere is no blurring.JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)This is a system used for compressing/decoding color still pictures.If you select JPEG as the storage system on digital cameras, etc.,the data will be compressed to 1/10–1/100 of its original size. Thefeature of JPEG is less deterioration in picture quality consideringthe degree of compression.MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3)An audio compression method that compresses audio toapproximately one tenth of its size without any considerable loss ofaudio quality. You can play MP3 you have recorded onto CD-R andCD-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 thepicture fills the screen.Letterbox: Black bands appear at the topand bottom of the picture so thepicture itself appears in anaspect 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 the high-resolution videorecorded on media such as DVD-Video. Your television must becompatible to enjoy progressive video.ProtectionYou can prevent accidental erasure by setting writing protection orerasure protection.Sampling frequencySampling is the process of converting the heights of sound wave(analog signal) samples taken at set periods into digits (digitalencoding). Sampling frequency is the number of samples taken persecond, so larger numbers mean more faithful reproduction of theoriginal sound.ThumbnailThis refers to a miniature representation of a picture used to displaymultiple pictures in the form of a list.= +Frame Field FieldLanguage code list Enter the code with the numbered buttons.Abkhazian: 6566 Catalan: 6765 Gujarati: 7185 Lingala: 7678 Rhaeto-Romance: Tamil: 8465Afar: 6565 Chinese: 9072 Hausa: 7265 Lithuanian: 7684 8277 Tatar: 8484Afrikaans: 6570 Corsican: 6779 Hebrew: 7387 Macedonian: 7775 Romanian: 8279 Telugu: 8469Albanian: 8381 Croatian: 7282 Hindi: 7273 Malagasy: 7771 Russian: 8285 Thai: 8472Ameharic: 6577 Czech: 6783 Hungarian: 7285 Malay: 7783 Samoan: 8377 Tibetan: 6679Arabic: 6582 Danish: 6865 Icelandic: 7383 Malayalam: 7776 Sanskrit: 8365 Tigrinya: 8473Armenian: 7289 Dutch: 7876 Indonesian: 7378 Maltese: 7784 Scots Gaelic: 7168 Tonga: 8479Assamese: 6583 English: 6978 Interlingua: 7365 Maori: 7773 Serbian: 8382 Turkish: 8482Aymara: 6589 Esperanto: 6979 Irish: 7165 Marathi: 7782 Serbo-Croatian: 8372 Turkmen: 8475Azerbaijani: 6590 Estonian: 6984 Italian: 7384 Moldavian: 7779 Shona: 8378 Twi: 8487Bashkir: 6665 Faroese: 7079 Japanese: 7465 Mongolian: 7778 Sindhi: 8368 Ukrainian: 8575Basque: 6985 Fiji: 7074 Javanese: 7487 Nauru: 7865 Singhalese: 8373 Urdu: 8582Bengali; Bangla: Finnish: 7073 Kannada: 7578 Nepali: 7869 Slovak: 8375 Uzbek: 85906678 French: 7082 Kashmiri: 7583 Norwegian: 7879 Slovenian: 8376 Vietnamese: 8673Bhutani: 6890 Frisian: 7089 Kazakh: 7575 Oriya: 7982 Somali: 8379 Volapük: 8679Bihari: 6672 Galician: 7176 Kirghiz: 7589 Pashto, Pushto: 8083 Spanish: 6983 Welsh: 6789Breton: 6682 Georgian: 7565 Korean: 7579 Persian: 7065 Sundanese: 8385 Wolof: 8779Bulgarian: 6671 German: 6869 Kurdish: 7585 Polish: 8076 Swahili: 8387 Xhosa: 8872Burmese: 7789 Greek: 6976 Laotian: 7679 Portuguese: 8084 Swedish: 8386 Yiddish: 7473Byelorussian: 6669 Greenlandic: 7576 Latin: 7665 Punjabi: 8065 Tagalog: 8476 Yoruba: 8979Cambodian: 7577 Guarani: 7178 Latvian, Lettish: 7686 Quechua: 8185 Tajik: 8471 Zulu: 9085Downloaded From Disc-Player.com Panasonic Manuals
