Down-mixing
This is a process of remixing the multi-channel audio (surround sound) on some discs into two
channels. When you want to listen to the audio on a DVD with a 5.1 channel digital surround track
through your television speakers, the down-mixed audio will be output.
Some DVD-Audio prevent down-mixing of all or part of their contents. When playing such discs, or
such parts of the disc, audio will not be output properly.
Film and video
DVD-Videos are recorded using either film or video. This unit can determine which type has been
used, then uses the most suitable method of video output for the LCD.
Film: Recorded at 24 or 30 frames per second.
Generally appropriate for motion picture films.
Video: Recorded at 30 frames/60 fields per second. Generally appropriate for TV drama programs or
animation.
MPEG4
A compression system for use on mobile devices or a network, that allows highly efficient recording
at a low bit rate.
Packet Writing
"Packet Writing" is one method of data recording used. Very small amounts of data referred to as
"Packets" are divided into very small units and written as "Packets". Music CDs cannot be created
with this method.
Sampling frequency
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.
