Glossary
AVCHD
AVCHD is a new format (standard) for high definition video cameras
that can be used to record and play high-resolution HD images.
BD-J
Some BD-Video discs contain Java applications, and these
applications are called BD-J. You can enjoy various interactive
features in addition to playing normal video.
BD-Live
This is a BD-Video (BD-ROM Profile 2) that supports the new functions
such as Internet connection, etc. in addition to the BONUSVIEW
function.
Bitstream
This is the digital form of multi-channel audio data (e.g., 5.1 channel)
before it is decoded into its various channels.
BONUSVIEW (Final Standard Profile)
This is a BD-Video (BD-ROM Profile 1 version 1.1) that supports the
new functions such as Picture-in-picture and Secondary Audio, etc.
Deep Colour
This unit incorporates HDMI
TM
(V.1.3a with Deep Colour) technology
that can reproduce greater colour gradation (4096 steps) when
connected to a compatible TV.
You can enjoy exceptionally rich, natural-looking colours, with smooth,
detailed gradation and minimal colour banding.
[A lower colour gradation (256 steps), without Deep Colour, will be
reproduced if connected to a TV which does not support Deep Colour.
The unit will automatically set appropriate output to suit the connected
TV.]
DivX
DivX is a popular media technology created by DivX, Inc. DivX media
files contain highly compressed video with high visual quality that
maintains a relatively small file size.
DNS Server
A server which acts like a telephone directory and translates Internet
domain names into IP addresses.
Dolby Digital
This is a method of coding digital signals developed by Dolby
Laboratories. Apart from stereo (2-channel) audio, these signals can
also be multi-channel audio.
Dolby Digital Plus
Multi-channel audio and higher audio quality is made possible using
Dolby Digital Plus. BD-Video supports up to 7.1 channel output.
Dolby Pro Logic II
Dolby Pro Logic II enables you to play stereo sources on 5.1-channel.
Dolby TrueHD
Dolby TrueHD is a very high quality audio format that reproduces the
studio master audio. BD-Video supports up to 7.1 channel output.
Down-mixing
This is the process of remixing the multi-channel audio found on some
discs into fewer channels.
DTS (Digital Theater Systems)
This surround system is used in many movie theaters. There is good
separation between the channels, so realistic sound effects are
possible.
DTS-HD
DTS-HD is a high-quality, sophisticated audio format used in movie
theaters. Previous DTS Digital Surround-compatible equipment can
play DTS-HD as DTS Digital Surround audio. BD-Video supports up to
7.1 channel output.
DTS-HD High Resolution Audio
This is a signal format achieved by improving the previous DTS,
DTS-ES and DTS 96/24 formats. It is compatible with sampling
frequency 96 kHz/48 kHz. BD-Video supports up to 7.1 channel
output.
DTS-HD Master Audio
This is a lossless audio format and compatible with 96 kHz/7.1ch or
less. In addition, faithful reproduction of the master audio is enabled
using lossless audio encoding technology. BD-Video supports up to
7.1 channel output.
Dynamic range
Dynamic range is the difference between the lowest level of sound that
can be heard above the noise of the equipment and the highest level
of sound before distortion occurs.
Dynamic range compression means reducing the gap between the
loudest and softest sounds. This means you can listen at low volumes
but still hear dialog clearly.
Film and video
DVD-Video are recorded using either film or video. This unit can
determine which type has been used, then uses the most suitable
method of progressive output.
Film: Recorded at 25 frames per second (PAL discs) or 24
frames per second (NTSC discs). (NTSC discs recorded at
30 frames per second as well.)
Generally appropriate for motion picture films.
Video: Recorded at 25 frames/50 fields per second (PAL discs) or
30 frames/60 fields per second (NTSC discs). Generally
appropriate for TV drama programs or animation.
Folder
This is a place on the disc, USB device or SD card where groups of
data are stored together. Additional folders can be created within
folders, and you can make detailed classifications depending on the
folder structure. (> 47)
Frames and fields
Frames refer to the single images that constitute the video you see on
your television. Each frame consists of two fields.
A frame still shows two fields, so there may be some blurring, but
picture quality is generally better.
A field still shows less picture information so it may be rougher, but
there is no blurring.
Gateway
IP address of the electronic device providing Internet access.
Usually called a router IP address. (e.g., 192.168.0.1)
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface)
HDMI is a digital interface for consumer electronic products. Unlike
conventional connections, it transmits uncompressed digital video and
audio signals on a single cable.
Hub
Used for connecting more than one device to the network.
IP address
A set of numbers which distinguish each device on the network when,
for example, connected to the Internet. When using a PC in a LAN to
access a PC or device that is not included in the LAN, the IP address
is called the local IP address. (e.g., 192.168.0.10)
