Analo 9 Audio

signal that directly
represents
sound.
Compare this to digital
audio which can be an electrical
signal, but is an indirect
representation
of sound. See also
"Digital Audio".
Aspect
Ratio
The width
ofa TV screen relative
to its height.
Conventional
TVs are 4:3 (in other words, the TV screen
is almost
square); widescreen
models are 16:9 (the TV
screen is almost
twice as wide as it is high).
Chapter
Just as a book is split up into several chapters, a title on a
DVD is usually divided
into chapters. See also "Title".
Component
Video
Output
Each signal of luminance
(Y) and component
(PB/CB, PR/
CR)is independent
to output
so that you can experience
picture color as it is.
Also, due to compatibility
with progressive
video (480p),
you can experience
higher-density
picture than that in
interlace
(480i).
Di_lital
Audio
An indirect
representation
of sound by numbers.
During
recording,
the sound is measured
at discrete
intervals
(44,1 O0 times a second for CD audio)
by an analog-
to-digital
converter,
generating
a stream of numbers.
On playback,
a digital-to-analog
converter
generates
an analog signal based on these numbers.

this unit can convert
Dolby Digital and
MPEG audio to PCM. See also "Digital
