Playback control (PBC): Refers to the signal
recorded on video CDs or SVCDs for controlling
playback. By using menu screens recorded on a
Video CD or SVCD that supports PBC, you can
enjoy interactive playback and searching.

mode, the system will prompt the user to proceed
with the automatic installation of radio stations by

Progressive Scan: It displays all the horizontal
lines of a picture at one time, as a signal frame.
This system can convert the interlaced video from
DVD into progressive format for connection to a
progressive display. It dramatically increases the
vertical resolution.
Region code: A system allowing discs to be
played only in the region designated. This unit will
only play discs that have compatible region codes.
You can find the region code of your unit by
looking on the product label. Some discs are
compatible with more than one region (or ALL
regions).
S-Video: Produces a clear picture by sending
separate signals for the luminance and the colour.
You can use S-Video only if your TV has an S-Video
In jack.

based upon the current CD standards but includes
a greater amount of information that provides
higher quality sound. There are three types of
discs: single layer, double layer and hybrid discs.
The hybrid disc contains both standard audio CD
and Super Audio CD information.
Surround: A system for creating realistic three-
dimensional sound fields full of realism by
arranging multiple speakers around the listener.

feature on DVD. Each title is assigned a title
number, enabling you to locate the title you want.
