DVD is the short form for "Digital Versatile Disc". DVDs are a storage medium
for audio and video data; they are available in 8 cm and 12 cm (Diameter)
formats. Because of the much higher storage capacity as compared to CD-Rs/
CD-RWs DVDs can provide a playback duration of up to eight hours for the
audio and video data stored on them.

VCDs/S-VCDs
"Video CD" (VCD) and "Super Video CD" (S-VCD) are designations for two
processes of compressed storage, thus space saving, of films on CDs. VCDs
and S-VCDs are available in 8 cm and 12 cm (Diameter) formats. Their storage
capacity is a great deal lower than that of DVDs. For this reason they only
offer a playback duration, for the saved audio and video data on them, of
20 minutes (8 cm format) and/or 74 minutes (12 cm format).
VCDs are available in two versions:
No 4:3 or 16:9 image

PBC (Playback control) functions are available on version 2.0 VCDs/
S-VCDs. In addition still images can be played back in a higher resolution.
Playback Control (PBC)
Version 2.0 VCDs/S-VCDs have Playback Control (in short "PBC") at their dis-
posal. Then on the VCD/S-VCD a main menu is available, by which various
functions of the VCD/S-VCD are allowed to be operated.

Scart
For this see chapter 10.6. "Misc settings".
Scart denotes a 21 pole standardized plug connection, via which the RGB
signal, video signal and S-Video signal as well as a number of control and
auxiliary signals are transmitted.

S-video
For this see chapter 19. "Warranty and service".
When the DVD player is connected to a television via S-Video the brightness
and colour signals are transmitted seperately; in this way a greater image
sharpness and a reduced so called "Colour noise" is achieved.
Colour noise refers to the overlaying of the colours, mostly heavily saturated
parts of a video image, through an irregular, restive breakdown structure.

Composite video
Video signal or FBAS signal; thereby it involves an image signal, in which
colour and brightness information are included at the same time.
the stereo loudspeakers. The deepest sounds are fed to a bass loudspeaker,
the so called "Subwoofer". The subwoofer can be placed in any desired loca-
tion in the room; the logic for this is that the bass sounds that the subwoofer
puts out can scarcely be localized exactely by the human ear
Progressive scan
In the normal way TV appliances and Video projectors are controlled with so
called "Half images". Thereby clearly visible line structures develop. Contrary
to this, Progressive Scan denotes the output of full images (with this DVD player,
at the output YPbPr) Progressive Scan signals can only be processed by play-
back appliances equipped for this purpose (in particular large screen tele-
visions and projectors). The image quality as opposed to traditional image
signals is considerably higher.
Dolby Digital (5.1)
Dolby Digital, also designated as AC3, is a digital sound format, by which up
to six seperate audio channels can be transported. With most of the current
DVDs, the sound is stored in the so called "Dolby Digital 5.1" format; the "5"
in the name "5.1" stands for the three front and two rear surround sound
channels, the "1" stands for the subwoofer channel.
YUV (component video out)
DTS
YUV indicates the component signal, which with this appliance is available
at the output YPbPr in the form of so called "Half images"; as a rule this is the
best signal for the control of large screen televisions and projectors, which
can not process Progressive Scan signals. As with the RGB image transmis-
sion, YUV is comprised of three separated image signals:
DTS is the abbreviation for "Digital Theatre System" and denotes one of the
most common surround sound formats for DVDs. As with Dolby Digital 5.1,
DTS uses three front and two rear surround sound channels as well as a bass
sound channel.

the two colour difference signals "Pb/Cb" and "Pr/Cr"
What are PAL, NTSC and SECAM?
PAL
Half images (Interlace)/Full images (Progressive Scan)
PAL is the abbreviation for "Phase Alternation Line". PAL is the mid and west
Europe (Exception: France, see the heading "SECAM") customary and most
wide spread colour television standard.
A standard television image is comprised of 576 visible lines; at first all odd
and then all even image lines are displayed alternatively, thus each displays
a half image. Thereby only 25 full images (50 Half images) can be displayed
per second. This technique is designated as "Interlace" format.
NTSC
NTSC is the abbreviation for "National Television System Committee". NTSC
Contrary to this with the so called progressive or "Progressive Scan" format
all image lines are displayed every time, that is to say 60 full images per
second are displayed. Thereby increasing the total quality of the images, still
images and text for example appear sharper.
is a colour television standard that is primarily used in the USA and Japan.
SECAM
SECAM is the abbreviation for the french "système en couleur avec mémoire".
SECAM is the customary colour television norm in France and many east
European countries and at present still the most widely spread system in
those countries.
HDMI
HDMI is short for "High Definition Multimedia Interface" and refers to a 19
contact interface for complete digital transmission of audio and video data.
With its high bandwidth HDMI handles all known today home electronics
digital video and audio formats. HDMI transmits audio data up to frequencys
of 192 kHz with text widths of up to 24 Bit on up to 8 channels. Thus not
only all of today's image and sound formats introduced into home electronics
including HDTV (up to the highest present resolution of 1080i) are transmitted
without loss of quality but also future formats with yet higher resolutions.
Audio CDs
Audio CDs contain exclusively audio data; they are also available in 8 cm
and 12 cm (Diameter) formats. The playback duration for the audio data
stored on them amounts to 20 minutes (8 cm format) and/or 74 minutes
(12 cm format). Audio data is stored on audio CDs in CDA format.
MP3
Decoder
MP3 denotes a process and/or format developed by the Fraunhofer Institute
for the compression of audio data. In the MP3 format compressed music pieces
are only a fraction of their original size, which, for example, on CD-Rs/CD-RWs
allows for storage of a considerably greater volume of music than on com-
mercially available audio CDs, on which audio data is stored in the CDA
format.
The sound on DVDs with home theatre sound is saved on the DVD in encryp-
ted (encoded) form. Different encryption formats exist for several purposes,
for example AC-3 for the playback of Dolby Digital Surround Sound.
In order to playback encrypted sound, the playback appliance (i.e. the DVD
player) and/or the audio component connected to it (for example Surround
system) must be equipped with a so called decoder, which converts the en-
crypted signal back into music and/or sound.
WMA
The Silvercrest KH 6517/KH 6518 DVD player is equiped with an AC-3
Decoder (for Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound signals).
WMA ("Windows® Media Audio") is a data format developed by Microsoft®
for audio data.
Dolby Surround
JPEG
Dolby Surround is an analogue sound format, by which the two channels
of a stereo sound signal are used in order to accommodate room sound in-
formation for further channels. Dolby Surround decoders convert the signals
back into sound or music and send the audio to two additional speakers that
are situated behind the listener.
JPEG ("Joint Photographics Expert Group") denotes a wide spread graphic
format, developed by the organization with the same name, with which image
data of the colour and grey scales are compressed.
Dolby Prologic
In comparison to Dolby Surround sound format, with Dolby Prologic an addi-
tional channel in the stereo signal is used; this is the so called "Centre" channel.
The corresponding centre loudspeaker is to be situated in the middle between

What are files?
As opposed to audio CDs the title on a CD-R/CD-RW with MP3-, WMA- or
JPEG data can be stored in files, for example, in order to file titles from different
genres.
The structure of an MP3-CD can, for example, appear as follows, if the MP3
data is stored in files:
