Bit ra t e (p a g e 41)
DVD (p a g e 4)
Value indicating the amount of video data compressed in
a DVD per second. The unit is Mbps (Mega bit per
second). 1 Mbps indicates that the data per second is
1,000,000 bits. The higher the bit rate is, the larger the
amount of data. However, this does not always mean that
you can get higher quality pictures.
A disc that contains up to 8 hours of moving pictures even
though its diameter is the same as a CD.
The data capacity of a single-layer and single-sided DVD,
at 4.7 GB (Giga Byte), is 7 times that of a CD.
Furthermore, the data capacity of a dual-layer and single-
sided DVD is 8.5 GB, a single-layer and double-sided
DVD 9.4 GB, and a dual-layer and double-sided DVD 17
GB.
Ch a p t e r (p a g e 5)
Sections of a picture or a music piece on a DVD that are
smaller than titles. A title is composed of several chapters.
Each chapter is assigned a chapter number enabling you
to locate the chapter you want.
The picture data uses the MPEG 2 format, one of the
worldwide standards of digital compression technology.
The picture data is compressed to about 1/ 40 of its
original size. The DVD also uses the variable rate coding
technology that changes the data to be allocated according
to the status of the picture.
Dig it a l Cin e m a So u n d (DCS) (p a g e 35)
The general name of technology that Sony developed to
enjoy the surround sound in a home. To enjoy the
surround sound of a movie theater in the comfort of your
own home, it simulates the sound not in a concert hall as
usual but in a movie editing studio. This player adopts
VES (Virtual Enhanced Surround) system from various
DCS programs. The VES system can create the sound
image of virtual rear speakers from the sound of the front
speakers (L, R) without using actual rear speakers.
The audio data is recorded in Dolby Digital as well as in
PCM, allowing you to enjoy more real audio presence.
Furthermore, various advanced functions such as the
multi-angle, multilingual, and Parental Control functions
are provided with the DVD.
MPEG AUDIO (p a g e s 35, 51)
International standard coding system to compress audio
digital signals authorized by ISO/ IEC. MPEG 1 conforms
to up to 2-channel stereo. MPEG 2 used on DVDs
conforms to up to 7.1-channel surround.
Do lb y Dig it a l (p a g e s 15, 32)
Digital audio compression technology that the Dolby
Laboratories Corporation developed. This technology
conforms to 5.1-channel surround sound. The rear
channel is stereo and there is discrete subwoofer channel
in this format. Dolby Digital provides the same 5.1
discrete channels of high quality digital audio found in
Dolby Digital Cinema audio systems. The good channel
separation is realized because the all channel data is
recorded discrete and processed in digital.
Mu lt i-a n g le fu n ct io n (p a g e 34)
Various angles, or viewpoints of the video camera, for a
scene are recorded on some DVDs.
Mu lt ilin g u a l fu n ct io n (p a g e s 17, 33, 45)
Several languages for the sound or subtitles in a picture
are recorded on some DVDs.
Pa re n t a l Co n t ro l (p a g e 47)
Do lb y Pro Lo g ic (p a g e 51)
A function of the DVD to limit playback of the disc by the
age of the users according to the limitation level in each
country. The 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.
Audio signal processing technology that Dolby
Laboratories Corporation developed for surround sound.
When the input signal has the surround component, the
Pro Logic process outputs the front, center and rear
signals. The rear channel is monaural.
DTS (p a g e 52)
Pla yb a ck Co n t ro l (PBC) (p a g e 23)
Digital audio compression technology that the Digital
Theater Systems, Inc. developed. This technology
conforms to 5.1-channel surround. The rear channel is
stereo and there is discrete subwoofer channel in this
format. DTS provides the same 5.1 discrete channels of
high quality digital audio. The good channel separation is
realized because the all channel data is recorded discrete
and processed in digital.
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.

Tit le (p a g e 5)
The longest sections of a picture or a music piece on a
DVD; a movie, etc., for a picture piece on video software;
or an album, etc., for a music piece on an audio software.
Each title is assigned a title number enabling you to locate
the title you want.
Tra ck (p a g e 5)
Sections of a picture or a music piece on a CD or VIDEO
CD. Each track is assigned a track number enabling you to
locate the track you want.
VIDEO CD (p a g e 4)
A compact disc that contains moving pictures.
The picture data uses the MPEG 1 format, one of the
worldwide standards of digital compression technology.
The 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.
There are 2 versions of VIDEO CDs.
• Version 1.1: You can play only moving pictures and
sounds.
• Version 2.0: You can play high-resolution still pictures
and enjoy PBC functions.
This player conforms to both versions.
