Glossary
Auto Pause
An automatic pause according to the
signal encoded on the disc while playing
a VIDEO CD. If the CD/DVD player
does not resume playback for a long time,
perform resume playback manually.
Chapter
Subdivision of a title on a DVD VIDEO.
A title is composed of several chapters.
DivX
®
Digital video technology created by
DivX, Inc. Videos encoded with DivX
technology are among the highest quality
with a relatively small le size.
Dolby Digital
is movie theater sound format is
more advanced than Dolby Surround
Pro Logic. In this format, the surround
speakers output stereo sound with
an expanded frequency range and a
subwoofer channel for deep bass is
independently provided. is format is
also called “5.1” because the subwoofer
channel is counted as 0.1 channel (since
it functions only when a deep bass eect
is needed). All six channels in this format
are recorded separately for superior
channel separation. Furthermore, since
all the signals are processed digitally, less
signal degradation occurs.
“Dolby Digital Karaoke” format
(DVD VIDEO only)
e Dolby Digital format, which
reproduces surround sound using
5 channels, can also contain the
“Dolby Digital Karaoke” format
which is specialized for Karaoke. In
the “Dolby Digital Karaoke” format
discs, guide melody and guide vocal
tracks are recorded in addition to the
accompaniment. You can select guide
vocal when Karaoke mode is turned on.
DTS
Digital audio compression technology
developed by DTS, Inc. is technology
conforms to 2-channel surround. e
surround channel is stereo and there
is discrete subwoofer channel in this
format. DTS provides the same 2 discrete
channels of high quality digital audio.
e good channel separation is realized
because the all channel data is recorded
discrete and processed in digital.

Additional Information
DVD+RW
A DVD+RW (plus RW) is a recordable
and rewritable disc. DVD+RWs use a
recording format that is comparable to
the DVD VIDEO format.
File
Audio le (MP3/WMA/AAC le), JPEG
image le, DivX and MPEG4 video le
(MHC-GZR33Di only) recorded on a
DATA CD, DATA DVD or USB device.
(“File” is an exclusive denition for this
system.)
Film based software, Video based
software
DVD VIDEOs can be classied as Film
based or Video based soware. Film
based DVD VIDEOs contain the same
images (24 frames per second) that are
shown at movie theaters. Video based
DVD VIDEOs, such as television dramas
or sitcoms, display images at 30 frames
(or 60 elds) per second.
Folder
Section of a music or picture piece on a
DATA CD, DATA DVD or USB device
containing MP3 les, JPEG image les,
DivX and MPEG4 video les (MHC-
GZR33Di only).
DVD VIDEO
A disc that contains up to 8 hours of
moving pictures even though its diameter
is the same as an AUDIO CD. e data
capacity of a single-layer and single-
sided DVD VIDEO, at 4.7 GB (Giga
Byte), is 7 times that of an AUDIO CD.
Furthermore, the data capacity of a dual-
layer and single-sided DVD VIDEO is
8.5 GB, a single-layer and double-sided
DVD VIDEO 9.4 GB, and a dual-layer
and double-sided DVD VIDEO 17 GB.
e picture data uses the MPEG 2
format, one of the worldwide standards
for digital compression technology. e
picture data is compressed to about 1/40
of its original size. e DVD VIDEO
also uses variable rate coding technology
that changes the data to be allocated
according to the status of the picture.
e audio data is recorded in Dolby
Digital as well as in PCM, allowing you to
enjoy more realistic audio presence.
Furthermore, various advanced functions
such as the multi-angle, multilingual, and
Parental Control functions are provided
with the DVD VIDEO.
DVD-RW
A DVD-RW is a recordable and
rewritable disc that is the same size as
a DVD VIDEO. e DVD-RW has two
dierent modes: VR mode and Video
mode. DVD-RWs created in Video
mode have the same format as a DVD
VIDEO, while discs created in VR (Video
Recording) mode allow the contents to
be programmed or edited.

Interlace format (Interlaced scanning)
e Interlace format is the NTSC
standard method for displaying TV
images at 30 frames per second. Each
frame is scanned twice-alternately
between the even numbered scanning
lines and then odd numbered scanning
lines, at 60 times per second.
Menu Playback
Playback using the menu screens
recorded on VIDEO CDs with PBC
functions. You can enjoy simple
interactive soware using the menu
playback function.
Multi-angle function
Various angles, or viewpoints of the video
camera, for a scene are recorded on some
DVD VIDEOs.
Multilingual function
Several languages for the sound or
subtitles in a picture are recorded on
some DVD VIDEOs.
Multi Session
is is a recording method that enables
adding of data using the Track-At-Once
method. Conventional CDs begin at a
CD control area called the Lead-in and
end at an area called Lead-out. A Multi
Session disc is a disc having multiple
sessions, with each segment from Lead-in
to Lead-out regarded as a single session.
Parental Control
A function of the DVD VIDEO to limit
playback of the disc by the age of the
users according to the limitation level in
each country. e limitation varies from
disc to disc; when it is activated, playback
is completely prohibited, violent scenes
are skipped or replaced with other scenes
and so on.
Playback Control (PBC)
Signals encoded on VIDEO CDs (Version
2.0) to control playback. By using menu
screens recorded on VIDEO CDs with
PBC functions, you can enjoy playing
simple interactive programs, programs
with search functions, and so on.
Progressive format (sequential
scanning)
In contrast to the Interlace format, the
progressive format can reproduce 50
60 frames per second by reproducing all
scanning lines (525 lines for the NTSC
system, 625 lines for PAL system). e
overall picture quality increases and still
images, text and horizontal lines appear
sharper. is format is compatible with
the 525 or 625 progressive format.

Region Code
is system is used to protect copyrights.
A region code is allocated on each DVD
system or DVD VIDEO according to
the sales region. Each region code is
shown on the unit as well as on the disc
packaging. e system can play back
the discs that match its region code. e
system can also play back discs with the

VIDEO CD
A compact disc that contains moving
pictures.
e picture data uses the MPEG 1
format, one of the worldwide standards
for digital compression technology. e
picture data is compressed to about 1/140
of its original size. Consequently, a 12 cm
VIDEO CD can contain up to 74 minutes
of moving pictures.
VIDEO CDs also contain compact audio
data.
Sounds outside the range of human
hearing are compressed while the
sounds we can hear are not compressed.
VIDEO CDs can hold 6 times the audio
information of conventional AUDIO
CDs.
ere are 2 versions of VIDEO CDs.
Version 1.1: You can play back only
m
oving pictures and sounds.
