DVD: Digital Video Disc.
Letterbox: A TV aspect ratio setting (4:3). Displays the
video in full-width, with black bars at the top and bottom of

AUDIO OUT Jacks: Jacks on the back of the DVD
Receiver that send audio to another system (TV, Stereo, etc.).

For example, an MP3 music file recorded at 32 kbps will

not prone to external electrical influences and has less noise,
which reduces adverse effects on external equipment. Be sure
to keep the protective cap on the jack when the jack is not in
use. This keeps dust out of the jack.
Coaxial jack: Sends digital audio to a Stereo, allowing you
to adjust the volume at the Stereo. The Stereo must have a
coaxial in jack. This connection provides the 5.1 channel sur-
round sound as heard in movie theaters.
Pan & Scan: A TV aspect ratio setting (4:3). Displays the
video with full-height picture, with one or both sides of the
picture trimmed. Some movie companies refer to this as
“reformatting the picture to fit your TV screen.”
Component Video Out Jacks: Jacks on the back of the
DVD Receiver that send high-quality video to a TV that has
Component Video In jacks.
PR PB Y: See Component Video Out Jacks.
S-Video: Produces a clear picture by sending separate sig-
nals for the luminance and the color. You can use S-Video
only if your TV has an S-Video In jack.
Digital: Sound that has been converted into numerical val-
ues. Digital sound is available when you use the DIGITAL
AUDIO OUT COAXIAL or OPTICAL jacks. These jacks
send audio through multiple channels, instead of just two
channels as analog does.
VIDEO OUT Jack: Jack on the back of the DVD Receiver
that sends video to a TV.
Widescreen: A TV aspect ratio setting (16:9). Displays the
video appropriately when you connect the DVD Receiver to
a widescreen TV.
Dolby Digital: A surround sound system that provides 5.1
channel sound as used in movie theaters.
