Glossary
Aspect Ratio The ratio of width to height of a film, image or display screen.
BBE A proprietary audio enhancement technology. BBE compensates for distortion
common to loudspeakers.
Broadcast TV Broadcasting video signals using high-frequency electromagnetic
waves to distribute television channels to viewers (standard TV broadcast).
CATV Community Antenna Television, the original name for cable TV. A television
distribution system that uses coaxial cable instead of the traditional radio broad­casting (over-the-air) method to deliver television, FM radio, and other services to consumers.
Color Temperature Adjusting the color temperature enables you to set the inten-
sity of white light. Color temperature is measured in Kelvin (K). Higher color tem­peratures result in a blue tint. Lower temperatures result in a red tint.
EALA 3D surround sound enhancement technology that provides a more immer-
sive and realistic soundscape.
Hue Colors in a color system are measured by hue, saturation and luminance.
Hue indicates the predominant color.
LCD Liquid Crystal Display. A display technology that uses rod-shaped molecules
(liquid crystals) that flow like liquid and bend light.
MTS Multi-channel Television Sound. Enables reception of audio other than the
primary (MAIN) audio signal. DUAL enables reception of a stereo audio signal, while SAP (Second Audio Program) enables reception of a separate channel that may be a different language or completely different information such as the news.
Saturation Chromatic purity indicating the amount of white contained in a color.
Fully saturated colors are pure colors; less saturated colors appear as pastel shades.
S-Video Super-video, a video cabling standard used to transmit video by keeping
brightness (Y) and color information (C) on separate channels. Most often used with camcorders, VCRs, and quality receivers and amplifiers to provide sharper pic­tures.
TruSurround 3D audio surround technology that delivers virtual surround sound
experience through any two speaker system, including internal television speakers and earphone.
VCD A compact disk format developed in 1993 by Sony and Philips to capture full-
motion video. A standard Video CD can hold 74 minutes of near VHS-quality video and CD-quality sound.
