called "Half images". Thereby clearly visible line structures develop. Contrary
to this, Progressive Scan denotes the output of full images (with this DVD player,
at the output YPbPr) Progressive Scan signals can only be processed by play-
back devices equipped for this purpose (in particular large screen televisions
and projectors). The image quality as opposed to traditional image signals is
considerably higher.
DVDs
DVD is the short form for "Digital Versatile Disc". DVDs are a storage medium
for audio and video data; they are available in 8 cm and 12 cm (Diameter)
formats. Because of the much higher storage capacity as compared to CD-Rs/
CD-RWs DVDs can provide a playback duration of up to eight hours for the
audio and video data stored on them.
VCDs/S-VCDs
YUV (component video out)
"Video CD" (VCD) and "Super Video CD" (S-VCD) are designations for two
processes of compressed storage, thus space saving, of films on CDs. VCDs
and S-VCDs are available in 8 cm and 12 cm (Diameter) formats. Their storage
capacity is a great deal lower than that of DVDs. For this reason they only
offer a playback duration, for the saved audio and video data on them, of
20 minutes (8 cm format) and/or 74 minutes (12 cm format).
VCDs are available in two versions:
YUV indicates the component signal, which with this device is available at the
output YPbPr in the form of so called "Half images"; as a rule this is the best
signal for the control of large screen televisions and projectors, which can not
process Progressive Scan signals. As with the RGB image transmission, YUV is
comprised of three separated image signals:
•
•
the brightness signal "Y" and
the two colour diferential signals "U/Pb" and "V/Pr"
•
Only audio and video data can be played back on version 1.1
VCDs/S-VCDs.
Half images (Interlace)/Full images (Progressive Scan)
•
PBC (Playback control) functions are available on version 2.0 VCDs/
A standard television image is comprised of 576 visible lines; at first all odd
and then all even image lines are displayed alternatively, thus each displays
a half image. Thereby only 25 full images (50 Half images) can be displayed
per second. This technique is designated as "Interlace" format.
S-VCDs. In addition still images can be played back in a higher resolution.
Playback Control (PBC)
Version 2.0 VCDs/S-VCDs have Playback Control (in short "PBC") at their disposal.
Then on the VCD/S-VCD a main menu is available, by which various functions of
the VCD/S-VCD are allowed to be operated.
Contrary to this with the so called progressive or "Progressive Scan" format
all image lines are displayed every time, that is to say 50 full images per
second are displayed. Thereby increasing the total quality of the images, still
images and text for example appear sharper.
What are Title and Chapter?
Title is the name given to the largest units of image and sound units on DVDs;
on many DVDs the (Main) film has the title number 01. For bonus material
(i.e. Film trailer, background information etc.), that is available on many DVDs,
other possible title numbers can be used.
HDMI
HDMI is short for "High Definition Multimedia Interface" and refers to a 19
contact interface for complete digital transmission of audio and video data.
With its high bandwidth HDMI handles all known today home electronics
digital video and audio formats. HDMI transmits audio data up to frequencys
of 192 kHz with text widths of up to 24 Bit on up to 8 channels. Thus not
only all of today's image and sound formats introduced into home electronics
including HDTV (up to the highest present resolution of 1080i) are transmitted
without loss of quality but also future formats with yet higher resolutions.
Chapter is the name given to the next smaller image and sound units beneath
title. If the DVD/VCD/S-VCD or its title is divided into chapters, numbers are
assigned to you, through the input of which the chapter can be selected direct.
Bear in mind that not on all DVDs …
•
•
are the DVD or the title divided into (numbered) chapters
Chapters are also designated as "Scenes" (i.e. in the main menu of
DVDs)
Decoder
The sound on DVDs with home theatre sound is saved on the DVD in encrypted
(encoded) form. Different encryption formats exist for several purposes, for
example AC-3 for the playback of Dolby Digital Surround Sound.
In order to playback encrypted sound, the playback device (i.e. the DVD
player) and/or the audio component connected to it (for example Surround
system) must be equipped with a so called decoder, which converts the
encrypted signal back into music and/or sound.
What are Scart, S-Video, Composite-Video Progressive
Scan, YUV and HDMI?
Scart
Scart denotes a 21 pole standardized plug connection, via which the RGB
signal, video signal and S-Video signal as well as a number of control and
auxiliary signals are transmitted.
The Silvercrest KH 6524/KH 6525 DVD player is equipped with an AC-3
Decoder (for Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound signals).
S-video
Dolby Surround
When the DVD player is connected to a television via S-Video the brightness
and colour signals are transmitted seperately; in this way a greater image
sharpness and a reduced so called "Colour noise" is achieved.
Colour noise refers to the overlaying of the colours, mostly heavily saturated
parts of a video image, through an irregular, restive breakdown structure.
Dolby Surround is an analogue sound format, by which the two channels of
a stereo sound signal are used in order to accommodate room sound information
for further channels. Dolby Surround decoders convert the signals back into
sound or music and send the audio to two additional speakers that are situated
behind the listener.

Dolby Prologic
MPEG
In comparison to Dolby Surround sound format, with Dolby Prologic an additional
channel in the stereo signal is used; this is the so called "Centre" channel. The
corresponding centre loudspeaker is to be situated in the middle between the
stereo loudspeakers. The deepest sounds are fed to a bass loudspeaker, the
so called "Subwoofer". The subwoofer can be placed in any desired location
in the room; the logic for this is that the bass sounds that the subwoofer puts
out can scarcely be localized exactely by the human ear
MPEG ("Moving Picture Experts Group") refers to a video compression format.
USB memory sticks
The term USB memory stick refers to a plugable USB device, which is approximately
the size of a cigarette lighter. The expression is only colloquial and not a designation
for a type of product. For the most part with this expression is meant a USB
device that serves as an interchangeable storage media.
Dolby Digital (5.1)
What are folders?
Dolby Digital, also designated as AC3, is a digital sound format, by which up
to six seperate audio channels can be transported. With most of the current
DVDs, the sound is stored in the so called "Dolby Digital 5.1" format; the "5"
in the name "5.1" stands for the three front and two rear surround sound
channels, the "1" stands for the subwoofer channel.
As opposed to audio CDs the title on a CD-R/CD-RW with MP3, WMA or
JPEG files can be stored in folders, for example, in order to file titles from
different genres.
The structure of an MP3-CD can, for example, appear as follows, if the MP3
files are stored in folders:
DTS
FOLDER
MP3
MP3-CD
DTS is the abbreviation for "Digital Theatre System" and denotes one of the
most common surround sound formats for DVDs. As with Dolby Digital 5.1,
DTS uses three front and two rear surround sound channels as well as a bass
sound channel.
What are PAL and NTSC?
PAL
PAL is the abbreviation for "Phase Alternation Line". PAL is the mid and west
Europe (Exception: France = SECAM) customary and widest distributed colour
television standard.
NTSC
NTSC is the abbreviation for "National Television System Committee". NTSC
is a colour television standard that is primarily used in the USA and Japan.
