Glossary  
Local storage [BD65] [BD655]  
This storage area is used as a destination for sub contents for  
playing BD-Live on BD-Video.  
AVCHD  
AVCHD is a new format (standard) for high definition video  
cameras that can be used to record and play high-resolution  
HD images.  
LPCM (Linear PCM)  
These are a kind of PCM format.  
These are uncompressed digital signals, similar to those  
found on CDs.  
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.  
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.  
Deep Color  
Deep Color is a name for device that can reproduce greater  
color gradation (4096 steps) when connected to a TV that  
supports the Deep Color with HDMI cable. You can enjoy  
exceptionally rich, natural-looking colors, with smooth,  
detailed gradation and minimal color banding. [A lower color  
gradation (256 steps), without Deep Color, will be reproduced  
if connected to a TV which does not support Deep Color. The  
unit will automatically set appropriate output to suit the  
connected TV.]  
Consequently, this unit is able to provide video of optimal  
resolution to the connected TV.  
PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)  
This is one format for converting analog audio into digital  
audio, enabling you to enjoy digital audio with no hassle.  
x.v.ColorTM  
Dolby Digital  
x.v.ColorTM is a name for devices that are compatible with the  
xvYCC format, an international standard for expanded color in  
motion pictures, and that follow the rules for signal  
transmission.  
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.  
You can enjoy vivid colors of wider color ranges for a more  
realistic picture when connected to a TV that supports the  
x.v.ColorTM with HDMI cable.  
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.  
24p  
Dolby TrueHD  
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.  
Dolby TrueHD is a very high quality audio format that  
reproduces the studio master audio. BD-Video supports up to  
7.1 channel output.  
DTS (Digital Theater Systems)  
This surround system is used in many movie theaters. 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 theaters. 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 DTS96/24 formats. It is compatible with  
sampling frequency 96 kHz/48 kHz. BD-Video supports up to  
7.1 channel output.  
DTS-HD Master Audio  
This is a lossless audio format and compatible with 96 kHz/  
7.1ch 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.  
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.
