Interlace format (page 18)

Interlace format shows every other line of an
image as a single “field” and is the standard
method for displaying images on television.
The even number field shows the even
numbered lines of an image, and the odd
numbered field shows the odd numbered lines
of an image.

Progressive format (page 18)

Compared to the Interlace format that
alternately shows every other line of an image
(field) to create one frame, the Progressive
format shows the entire image at once as a
single frame. This means that while the
Interlace format can show 30 frames/60 fields
in one second, the Progressive format can
show 60 frames in one second. The overall
picture quality increases and still images,
text, and horizontal lines appear sharper. This
player is compatible with the 480 progressive
format.

Scene (page 9)

On a VIDEO CD with PBC (playback
control) functions, the menu screens, moving
pictures and still pictures are divided into
sections called “scenes.”

feature on a DVD, movie, etc., in video
software, or the entire album in audio
software.

Track (page 9)

Sections of a picture or a music feature on a
