Linear PCM (LPCM)/Pulse code modulation
This stands for linear pulse code modulation, which is
the signal recording system used for music CDs and
DVDs. Generally, DVDs are recorded with higher

Playlists created using the “WINAMP” software have a
playlist file extension (.m3u).
Menu
A list of options shown on the display; choices are
selected touching the display.
MP3
MP3 is short for MPEG Audio Layer 3. It is an audio
compression standard set by a working group (MPEG) of
the ISO (International Standards Organisation). MP3 is
able to compress audio data to about 1/10th the level of
a conventional disc.
MPEG
This stands for Moving Pictures Experts Group, and is an
international video image compression standard. Some
DVDs feature digital audio compressed and recorded
using this system.

are used to simultaneously shoot scenes, only images
from one camera at a time are transmitted to your TV.
Some DVDs feature scenes shot from multiple angles,
letting you choose your viewing angle as desired.
Multi-audio (Multilingual dialogue)
Some DVDs feature dialogue recorded in multiple
languages. Dialogue in up to 8 languages can be
recorded on a single disc, letting you choose as desired.
Multi-session
Multi-session is a recording method that allows
additional data to be recorded later. When recording
data on a CD-ROM, CD-R or CD-RW, etc., all data from
beginning to end is treated as a single unit or session.
Multi-session is a method of recording more than 2
sessions in one disc.
Multi-subtitle
Subtitles in up to 32 languages can be recorded on a
single DVD, letting you choose as desired.

etc. at the time required for a file, just as is done with
files on floppy or hard discs.
Parental lock
Some DVD-Video discs with violent or adult-oriented
scenes feature parental lock which prevents children
from viewing such scenes. With this kind of disc, if you
set the unit’s parental lock level, playback of scenes
inappropriate for children will be disabled, or these
scenes will be skipped.
Point of Interest (POI)
Point Of Interest; any of a range of locations stored in
the data, such as railway stations, shops, restaurants,
and amusement parks.
