DivX
®
Digital video technology created by
DivX, Inc. Videos encoded with DivX
technology are among the highest quality
with a relatively small file size.
Dolby Digital
This 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. This format is
also called “5.1” because the subwoofer
channel is counted as 0.1 channel (since
it functions only when a deep bass effect
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)
The 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. This technology
conforms to 2-channel surround. The
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.
The good channel separation is realized
because the all channel data is recorded
discrete and processed in digital.
