DNS
The abbreviation DNS stands for Domain Name Service and refers to a provider of
Internet services that registers domain names for customers.
Domain
A domain is the website's Internet address. It consists of the name of the Internet
protocol (usually http://), the computer or network name (such as www), the
second-level domain (such as magix), and the top level domain (like .com, .net).
Altogether we have: protocol://networkname.second-level-domain.top-level-domain
(such as "http://www.magix.com").
Domains are allocated by a country's so-called NIC (Network Information Center). In
Germany the DENIC is responsible for the release of domains.

Domain transfer

See CC. If you already have a domain, you can move it from your previous provider to
another provider.
Downmix
A method developed for audio technology to turn a Surround Sound recording into a
version with fewer channels. Most often (as is the case with MAGIX Fastcut) this will
be a stereo version.
Drag & drop
Enables files and objects to be moved freely between various applications (or within
an application) by dragging the object and letting it drop using the mouse cursor.
F
Fader
Used for visual input of values. Similar to volume control on a mixing board, you can
control various parameters by sliding the fader. A very common example for this is
the zoom slider that lets you see a picture in more detail.
Field
A half-image, two of which combine to produce a frame (see interlace).
