screens is 16:9.
AUDIO O UT Jacks: Jacks on the back of the DVD
System that send audio to another system (TV, Stereo,

Bit Rate: The amount of data used to hold a given
length of music; measured in kilobits per seconds, or
kbps. Or, the speed at which you record. Generally,
the higher the bit rate, or the higher the recording
speed, the better the sound quality. However, higher
bit rates use more space on a Disc.
Chapter : Sections of a picture or a music piece on a

later processing, with no data compression used in
conversion.
Playback control (PBC): Refers to the signal
recorded on video CDs or SVCDs for controlling
reproduction. By using menu screens recorded on a
Video CD or SVCD that supports PBC, you can enjoy
interactive-type software as well as software having a
search function.
Disc m enu: A screen display prepared for allowing
selection of images, sounds, subtitles, multi-angles, etc

multiple channels, instead of just two channels as
analog does.
DivX 3.11/4.x/5.x: The DivX codec is a patent-
