Notes :

• To output the digital audio signals, you should set the SPDIF Output to “(SPDIF/) RAW” or “(SPDIF/) PCM” (Refer to “When selecting the SPDIF Output” on page 35.)

• When the DIGITAL OUT of the unit is connected to the DIGITAL IN of an amplifier which does not contain the Dolby Digital or DTS decoder, etc.(which processes the bitstream digital), you should set the SPDIF Output to “(SPDIF/)PCM”. If not, loud noise or no sound may be heard from the speakers, and it may be harmful to your ears and damage the speaker.

• Even when the DIGITAL OUT is connected to MD recorder or CD recorder, because digital recording cannot perform properly for the digital audio signals(such as Dolby Digital, DTS bitstream, etc.) other than PCM(2 channel) of 48 or 44.1 kHz, be sure to check the digital audio signal format before digital recording.(For details, refer to the operating instructions of the component connected.)

Audio output from the unit’s OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT

Note 1 : The type of audio output from the OPTICAL

DIGITAL OUT can be selected by the SPDIF output settings. (Refer to “When selecting the SPDIF Output” on page 35.)

DEFINITION OF TERMS

Component video

Video signals with three channels of separate information that makes up the picture. There are some types of component video, such as Y/CB(Pb)/CR(Pr) and R/G/B.

Bitstream

The digital signal form of multichannel audio data (e.g., 5.1 channel) before it is decoded into its various channels.

Linear PCM

PCM stands for Pulse Code Modulation. Linear PCM is the usual digital method without compression, used for audio playback of audio CDs, DVD Videos, etc.

Title, Title number (DVD Video)

The title is the largest unit of the video/audio recording in DVD Videos. Usually, the title corresponds to a movie of video software or an album (or a piece) of music software. Title numbers are sequential numbers assigned to titles.

Chapter, Chapter number (DVD Video)

Chapters are divisions, which are smaller than the titles, of the contents recorded on DVD Videos. Every title is composed of more than one chapter. Chapter numbers are the sequential numbers assigned to the chapters in a DVD Video.

Track number (CD)

Track numbers are used to designate the various sections of a disc.

Folder (MP3 disc)

Folder is the largest unit of the contents recorded on MP3 discs.

File (MP3 disc)

Each material (song) is recorded on a file. Files may be grouped into a folder by artist, album, category, etc.

• DVD Video structure

• CD structure

• MP3 disc structure On an MP3 disc, a folder can be a member of another folder, creating hierarchical folder layers. If you are familiar with a personal computer, you may easily understand the hierarchical file/folder construction.

DVD Video

This refers to a high-density optical disc on which highquality pictures and sound have been recorded by means of digital signals. Incorporating a new video compression technology (MPEG-2) and high-density recording technology. DVD Video enables esthetically pleasing fullmotion video to be recorded over long periods of time (for instance, a whole movie can be recorded). DVD Video has a structure consisting of two 0.6 mm thin discs which are adhered to each other. Since the thinner the disc, the higher the density at which the information can be recorded, a DVD Video has a greater capacity than a single

1.2 mm thick disc. Since the two thin discs are adhered to each other, there is the potential to achieve double-sided play sometime in the future for even longer duration play.

MPEG

MPEG stands for Moving Picture Expert Group. It is regarded as an international standard for compressing and restoring digital video and audio signal. “MPEG” standards include MPEG-1, MPEG-2 and MPEG-4. Video CD and MP3 are based on MPEG-1, while DVD Video is based on MPEG-2.

MP3

MP3 is an audio data reduction format, which stands for MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3. Using MP3, you can achieve a data reduction of about 1:10.

Aspect ratio (DVD Video)

The aspect ratio is the ratio between the vertical and horizontal size of the picture displayed on a TV screen. The aspect ratio of normal TV screen is 4:3 while that of the wide-screen TV and HDTV screen is 16:9.

Subtitle (DVD Video)

Some DVD Videos contain the recording of more than one subtitle languages. With these discs, this unit can select one of the subtitle languages as desired during playback.

Angle (DVD Video)

Some DVD Videos contains scenes which have shot simultaneously from multiple camera angles. With these discs, the same scene can be viewed from each of these different angles.

Interlaced scan

In the conventional video system, a picture is shown on the screen in two halves. The interlaced scanning system places lines of the second half of the picture in-between lines of the first half of the picture.

Progressive scan

Progressive scanning displays all the horizontal lines of a picture at one time, as a single frame.

Composite video

A single video signal commonly used in most consumer video products that contains all luminance, color, and synchronization information.

S-video

A video signal which improves picture quality over the standard composite video signal.
