Glossary
Dolby Digital Also called Dolby 5.1 or AC-3. It is an audio coding
system containing up to 6 discrete channels of sound,
with 5 channels for normal-range speakers (20 Hz -
20,000 Hz) (Right front, Center, Left Front, Right Rear
and Left Rear) and one channel (20 Hz - 120 Hz) for
the LFE, or subwoofer.
Dolby E It is a professional coding system optimized for the
distribution of surround and multichannel audio
through two-channel postproduction and broadcasting
infrastructures, or for recording surround audio on two
audio tracks of conventional digital video tapes, video
servers, communication links, switchers, and routers.
Primary TC Timecode (LTC or user-defined timecode type) that is
displayed at the bottom the VGA and is used to work
with the video material stored on a given recorder. The
Primary TC is defined for each recorder on page 1 of
the setup configuration in Multicam.
LTC Longitudinal timecode (LTC) is a timing signal that is
part of an audio tape recording. It is recorded on a
track that runs lengthwise along the tape, which is why
it is called longitudinal. It can only be read if the tape
is playing.
VITC Vertical interval timecode (VITC) is a timing signal that
is part of a video recording. It is recorded in the
vertical blanking intervals between successive picture
frames, hence the "vertical interval."
