Glossary

AVCHD AVCHD is a new format (standard) for high definition video cameras that can be used to record and play high-resolution HD images. BD-J Some BD-Video discs contain Java applications, and these applications are called BD-J. You can enjoy various interactive features in addition to playing normal video. Bitstream This is the digital form of multi-channel audio data (e.g., 5.1 channel) before it is decoded into its various channels. Deep Colour This unit incorporates HDMI (V.1.4, Content Type) technology that can reproduce greater colour gradation (4096 steps) when connected to a compatible TV. You can enjoy exceptionally rich, natural-looking colours, with smooth, detailed gradation and minimal colour banding. [A lower colour gradation (256 steps), without Deep Colour, will be reproduced if connected to a TV which does not support Deep Colour. The unit will automatically set appropriate output to suit the connected TV.] DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) DLNA is a standard that makes DLNA Certified digital electronics easier and more convenient to use on a home network. Dolby Digital This is a method of coding digital signals developed by Dolby Laboratories. Apart from stereo (2-channel) audio, these signals can also be multi-channel audio. Dolby Digital Plus Multi-channel audio and higher audio quality is made possible using Dolby Digital Plus. BD-Video supports up to 7.1 channel output. Dolby Pro Logic II Dolby Pro Logic II enables you to play stereo sources on 5.1 channel. Dolby TrueHD Dolby TrueHD is a very high quality audio format that reproduces the studio master audio. BD-Video supports up to 7.1 channel output. Down-mixing This is the process of remixing the multi-channel audio found on some discs into fewer channels. DTS (Digital Theater Systems) This surround system is used in many movie theatres. There is good separation between the channels, so realistic sound effects are possible. DTS-HD DTS-HD is a high-quality, sophisticated audio format used in movie theatres. Previous DTS Digital Surround-compatible equipment can play DTS-HD as DTS Digital Surround audio. BD-Video supports up to 7.1 channel output. DTS-HD High Resolution Audio This is a signal format achieved by improving the previous DTS, DTS-ES and DTS 96/24 formats. It is compatible with sampling frequency 96 kHz/48 kHz. BD-Video supports up to 7.1 channel output. DTS-HD Master Audio | Essential This is a lossless audio format and compatible with 96 kHz/ 7.1 ch and 192 kHz/2 ch or less. In addition, faithful reproduction of the master audio is enabled using lossless audio encoding technology. BD-Video supports up to 7.1 channel output. Dynamic range Dynamic range is the difference between the lowest level of sound that can be heard above the noise of the equipment and the highest level of sound before distortion occurs. Dynamic range compression means reducing the gap between the loudest and softest sounds. This means you can listen at low volumes but still hear dialogue clearly. HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) HDMI is a digital interface for consumer electronic products. Unlike conventional connections, it transmits uncompressed digital video and audio signals on a single cable. Local storage This storage area is used as a destination for sub contents for playing BD-Live on BD-Video. LPCM (Linear PCM) These are a kind of PCM format. These are uncompressed digital signals, similar to those found on CDs. PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) This is one format for converting analogue audio into digital audio, enabling you to enjoy digital audio with no hassle. P4HD (Pixel Precision Progressive Processing for HD) This is a processor which makes use of an exclusive Panasonic algorithm. Various processing is supported, including a high-level conversion of the TV scanning format from interlace to progressive and a high-level conversion of standard resolution (480i or 576i) video signal to a 1080 High Definition video signal. Consequently, this unit is able to provide video of optimal resolution to the connected TV. x.v.ColourTM x.v.ColourTM is a name for devices that are compatible with the xvYCC format, an international standard for expanded colour in motion pictures, and that follow the rules for signal transmission. You can enjoy vivid colours of wider colour ranges for a more realistic picture when connected to a TV that supports the x.v.ColourTM with HDMI cable. 24p This is a progressive image recorded at a rate of 24 frames per second (motion-picture film). Many BD-Video movie contents are recorded in 24 frames/second in accordance with the film materials.
