Definition of terms

Angle

Recorded onto some DVD discs are scenes, which have been simultaneously shot from a number of different angles

(the same scene is shot from the front, from the left side, from the right side, etc.). With such discs, the ANGLE button can be used to view the scene from different angles.

Chapter Number

These numbers are recorded on DVD discs. A title is subdivided into many sections, each of which are numberd,and specific parts of video persentations can be searched quickly using these numbers.

Chapter Number

This refers to a high-density optical disc on which highquality pictures and sound have been recordedm by means of digital signals. Incorporating a new video compression technology (MPEG II) and high-density recording technology. DVD discs enables aesthetically pleasing fullmotion video to be recorded over long period of time (for instance, a whole movie can be recorded).

DVD discs have a structure consisting of two 0.6mm 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 disc has a greater capacity than a single 1.2mm thick disc. Since the two thin discs are adhered to each other, there is the potential to achieve doule-sided play sometime in the future for even longer duration play.

Subtitles

These are lines of text appearing at the bottom of the screen, which translate or transcribe the dialogue.

They are recorded on the DVD discs.

Time Number

This indicates the playtime, which has elapsed from the start of a disc or a titile. It can be used to find a specific feature to be used. Availability is determined by the disc’s manufacturer.)

Title Number

These numbers are recorded on DVD discs. When a disc contains two or more movies, these movies are numbered as title 1, title 2, etc.

Track Number

These numbers are assigned to the tracks, which are recorded on Audio CDs. They enable specific tracks to be located quickly.

LPCM

LPCM stands for Pulse Code Modulation and is digital audio.

MPEG

Short for Moving Picture Experts Group. This is an international standard for compression of moving images.

On some DVDs digital audio has been compressed and recorded in this format.
