technology designed to prevent unauthorized copying by 
restricting playback, etc. of material on devices other the

it. For detailed information, please see the instruction 
manuals or help files that came with your PC (or other

DTS
DTS stands for Digital Theater System. DTS is a surround 
system different from Dolby Digital that has become a 
popular surround sound format for movies.
“DTS” and “DTS Digital Out” are registered trademarks of 
Digital Theater Systems, Inc.
Dynamic range
The difference between the quietest and loudest sounds 
possible in an audio signal (without distorting or getting 
lost in noise). Dolby Digital and DTS soundtracks are 
capable of a wide dynamic range, delivering dramatic 
cinema-like effects.
EXIF (Exchangeable Image File)
A file format developed by Fuji Photo Film for digital still 
cameras. Digital cameras from various manufacturers 
use this compressed file format which carries date, time 
and thumbnail information, as well as the picture data. 
File extension
A tag added to the end of a filename to indicate the type 
of file. For example, “.mp3” indicates an MP3 file.
ISO 9660 format
International standard for the volume and file structure of 
CD-ROM discs.
JPEG
A file format used for still images, such as photographs 
and illustrations. JPEG files are identified by the file 
extension “.jpg” or “.JPG”. Most digital cameras use this 
format.
MP3
MP3 (MPEG1 audio layer 3) is a compressed audio file 
format. Files are recognized by their file extension “.mp3” 
or “.MP3”.
MPEG audio
An audio format used on Video CDs and some DVD 
discs. This unit can convert MPEG audio to PCM format 
for wider compatibility with digital recorders and AV 
amp/receivers. See also 
PCM
.
MPEG video
The video format used for Video CDs and DVDs. Video CD 
uses the older MPEG-1 standard, while DVD uses the 
newer and much better quality MPEG-2 standard.
Optical digital output
A jack that outputs digital audio in the form of light 
pulses. Connect components with optical digital jacks 
using a special optical cord, available from specialist 
audio dealers.
PBC (PlayBack Control) (Video CD/Super VCD only)
A system of navigating a Video CD/Super VCD through 
on-screen menus recorded onto the disc. Especially good 
for discs that you would normally not watch from 
beginning to end all at once—karaoke discs, for example.
PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)
The most common system of encoding digital audio, 
found on CDs and DAT. Excellent quality, but requires a 
lot of data compared to formats such as Dolby Digital 
and MPEG audio. For compatibility with digital audio 
recorders (CD, MD and DAT) and AV amp/receivers with 
digital inputs, this unit can convert Dolby Digital and 
MPEG audio to PCM. See also 
Digital audio
.
PictBridge
PictBridge was developed by the Camera and Imaging 
Products Association (CIPA) to enable digital cameras to 
be connected directly to a compatible printer. PictBridge-
compatible devices may be connected to any compatible 
printer, regardless of maker, etc. Within the PictBridge 
standard are functions such as printing index sheets of 
thumbnail image files.
Progressive scan video
Also called non-interlaced video, this method of 
displaying a picture updates all the lines in one pass, 
resulting in a more stable, flicker-free image than 
interlaced video (for a given scanning rate).
