■ CD-R (compact disc recordable): A type of CD that can
be recorded only once. Can be used to make Video-CDs, audio
CDs, or MP3/WMA/JPEG discs.
■ CD-RW (compact disc rewritable): A type of CD that can
be recorded many times. Can be used to make Video-CDs, audio
CDs, MP3/WMA/JPEG discs.
■ Chapter: Titles on DVD-Videos can be subdivided into

■ Component video: A video connection format that sepa-
rates the luminance (Y) and color difference signals (P R , P B ),
providing better picture quality than S-Video.
■ Composite video: A video connection format that mixes
the luminance and color signals together.
■ Dolby Digital: The multi-channel digital surround sound
format used on most DVD-Videos.
■ Dolby Pro Logic: The four-channel analog surround sound
format that can be encoded in normal stereo soundtracks and
used with VHS video cassettes, analog TV broadcasts, and other
analog stereo systems.
■ Downmixing: The process of mixing multiple audio chan-
nels into fewer channels. For example, a 5.1-channel surround
mix can be downmixed into two channels for reproduction on
stereo systems.
■ Downsampling: The process of reducing the sampling rate
of digital audio.
■ DTS (Digital Theater System): The 5.1-channel surround
format that uses less compression for faithful reproduction.
■ DVD-R (DVD recordable): A type of DVD disc that can be
recorded only once. Can be used to make DVD-Videos or to

■ DVD-RW (DVD rewritable): A type of DVD disc that can be
recorded many times. Can be used to make DVD-Videos or to
store computer data.
■ DVD-Video: The format for storing movies on DVD, with
interactive menus, multiple language soundtracks, subtitles,

■ Field: In interlaced scanning, a field is a single scan of the
screen. There are two fields per frame.
■ Frame: An individual TV picture is called a frame. With the
NTSC color system there are 30 frames per second.
■ Interlaced scanning: TV pictures are made by scanning
the screen in horizontal lines from top to bottom. With Interlaced
scanning, two scans (
fields ) are used to make each picture
( frame ). Contrast with Progressive scanning.
■ JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group): The com-
pressed file format used to store digital photos.
■ LFE (low-frequency effects): The surround-sound chan-
nel used for low-frequency effects.
■ Linear PCM: The uncompressed digital audio format used
for audio CDs. PCM stands for Pulse Code modulation.
■ MP3 (MPEG 1 Audio Layer 3): Popular compressed file
format for storing digital music.
■ MPEG1 (Moving Picture Experts Group 1): The com-
pressed digital video format used for Video CDs.
■ MPEG2 (Moving Picture Experts Group 2): The com-
pressed digital video format used for DVD-Videos, offering bet-
ter picture quality than MPEG1.
■ NTSC: The color TV system used in the United States,
Japan, Taiwan, and Korea.
■ PAL: The color TV system used in most of Europe, the
United Kingdom, Australia, Brazil, and China.
■ PBC (Playback Control): Version 2.0 of the Video CD
standard supports interactive menus and search functions.
■ Progressive scanning: TV pictures are made by scanning
the screen in horizontal lines from top to bottom. With progres-
sive scanning, each picture (
frame ) is made by scanning the
entire screen in one go, resulting is a clearer and stabler picture.
Contrast with Interlaced scanning.
■ S-Video: A video connection format that separates the lumi-
nance (Y) and color (C) signals, providing better picture quality
than composite video.
■ Title: Movies on DVD-Video are called titles.
■ Video CD: The format for storing movies on CD.
