specific numerical values. These jacks send audio
through two channels, the left and right.

image. The horizontal vs. vertical ratio of conventional
TVs is 4:3, and that of widescreens is 16:9.
■ Audio output jacks
Jacks on the back of the DVD player that send audio to
another system (TV, Stereo, etc.).
■ Bit rate
The amount of data used to hold a given length of
music, measured in kilobits per seconds, or kbps. Or,
the speed at which you record. Generally, the higher the
bit rate, or the higher the recording speed, the better the
sound quality. However, higher bit rates use more space
on a Disc.

smaller than titles. A title is composed of several
chapters. Each chapter is assigned a chapter number
enabling you to locate the chapter you want.

DTV), HDMI supports standard, enhanced or high-
definition video as well as multi-channel digital audio
using a single cable. HDMI transmits all ATSC HDTV
standards and supports 8-channel digital audio, with
bandwidth extra to accommodate future enhancements
and requirements.
When used in combination with HDCP (High-
bandwidth Digital Content Protection), HDMI provides
a secure audio/video interface that meets the security
requirements of content providers and system
operations. For further information on HDMI, visit the
HDMI website at "www.hdmi.org/".
