D +/Dolby TrueHD” or “DTS/DTS-HD”). (> 9)≥The number of channels listed is the maximum possible number of output channels.
HDMI AV OUT/DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (Coaxial [BD80]/Optical)
≥Also, depending on the specifications or the settings of the amplifier/receiver, the results of the output may vary.
*1 When the connected equipment is not supported with these audio formats, the audio is output as Dolby Digital bitstream, DTS Digital Surround
bitstream or down-mixed 2ch PCM (e.g., TV).
*2 [BD-V]: When playing BD-Video without secondary audio or button click sound, the audio is output as the same format as if “BD-Video
Secondary Audio” was set to “Off”.
*3 When the connected equipment is not supported with multi channel surround, the audio is output as down-mixed 2ch PCM.
*4 [BD-V]: When the connected equipment is supported with 7.1 channel surround, the audio output is amplified from 5.1ch or 6.1ch to 7.1ch
depending on the DTS, Inc. specifications.
*5 With PCM output, Dolby Digital EX becomes PCM audio decoded as Dolby Digital, DTS-ES recorded to DVD-Video becomes PCM audio
decoded as DTS Digital Surround, and DTS-ES recorded to BD-Video becomes PCM audio decoded as DTS-ES.
*6 [BD-V]: When “BD-Video Secondary Audio” is set to “On”, Dolby Digital EX is output as Dolby Digital and DTS-ES is output as DTS Digital
Surround, however if playing BD-Video without secondary audio or button click sound, the audio is output as the original format.

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.

These are a kind of PCM format.
These are uncompressed digital signals, similar to those found on
CDs.
MPEG2 (Moving Picture Experts Group)
A standard for efficiently compressing and expanding color video.
MPEG2 is a compression standard used for DVD and satellite based
digital broadcasting.
MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3)
An audio compression method that compresses audio to
approximately one tenth of its size without any significant loss of
audio quality.

P4HD (Pixel Precision Progressive Processing for HD)
This is a processor which makes use of an exclusive Panasonic
algorithm. Various processing is supported, including a high-level
conversion of the TV scanning format from interlace to progressive
and a high-level conversion of standard resolution (480i or 576i)
video signal to a 1080 High Definition video signal.
Consequently, this unit is able to provide video of optimal resolution
to the connected TV.
Pan&Scan/Letterbox
In general, DVD-Video are produced with the intention that they be
viewed on a widescreen television (16:9 aspect ratio), so images
often don’t fit regular (4:3 aspect ratio) televisions. Two styles of
picture, “Pan & Scan” and “Letterbox”, deal with this problem.
Pan&Scan:The sides are cut off so the picture fills
the screen.
24p
This is a progressive image recorded at a rate of 24 frames per
second.
720p (750p)
In one high definition image, 720 (750) scan lines pass at the same
time to create a progressive image. Since progressive video does not
alternate scan lines like interlace, there is a minimal amount of
screen flicker.
Letterbox: Black bands appear at the top and bottom
of the picture so the picture itself appears
in an aspect ratio of 16:9.
PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)
This is one format for converting analog audio into digital audio,
enabling you to enjoy digital audio with no hassle.
Progressive/Interlace
The video signal standard of NTSC has 480 interlaced (i) scan lines,
whereas progressive (p) scanning uses twice the number of scan
lines, and this is referred to as 480p. Using progressive output, you
can enjoy watching high resolution video.
Router
Distinguishes the IP address assigned to each device, such as the
PC, and relays the flow of data within the network.
Sampling frequenc y
Sampling is the process of converting the heights of sound wave
(analog signal) samples taken at set periods into digits (digital
encoding). Sampling frequency is the number of samples taken per
second, so larger numbers mean more faithful reproduction of the
original sound.
Subnet mask
Enables efficient network use. A set of numbers which identify which
part of the IP address allocated to every device connected to the
router is the network portion.
USB (Universal Serial Bus)
An interface specification to connect peripherals. Playback of MP3,
JPEG or DivX recorded to a USB device by PC or other equipment,
or JPEG in the Panasonic digital camera or similar connected via
USB connection cable is possible with this unit.
VIERA CAST
An information service unique to Panasonic where specific Web sites
can be viewed on this unit by connecting to the Internet without using
a PC.
x.v.Color
TM
x.v.ColorTM is a name for devices that are compatible with the xvYCC
format, an international standard for expanded color in motion
pictures, and that follow the rules for signal transmission.
You can enjoy vivid colors of wider color ranges for a more realistic
picture when connected to a TV that supports the x.v.Color
TM
with
HDMI cable.
1080i (1125i)
In one high definition image, 1080 (1125) alternating scan lines pass
to create an interlaced image. Because 1080i (1125i) more than
doubles current television broadcasts of 480i, the detail is much
clearer and creates a more realistic and rich image.
1080p (1125p)
In one high definition image, 1080 (1125) scan lines pass at the same
time to create a progressive image. Since progressive video does not
alternate scan lines like interlace, there is a minimal amount of
screen flicker.
