Coaxial jack:

Sends digital audio to a decoder or amplifier, allowing you to adjust

the volume at the decoder or amplifier. The decoder or amplifier must have a

coaxial in jack. This connection provides the 5.1 channel surround sound as heard

in movie theaters.

high-quality video to a TV that has Component Video In jacks.

Dolby Digital:

A surround sound system that provides 5.1 channel sound as used

in movie theaters.

DTS:

Digital Theater Systems. This is a surround sound system, but it is different

from Dolby Digital. The formats were developed by different companies.

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 the TV screen. This format is used often when

you see a movie in a theater. If the Disc does not include a letterbox format ,

selecting Letterbox may have no effect. (For example, some DVD discs are two-

sided, with one side playing in Letterbox and the other side playing in a normal for-

mat.)

Optical Jack:

Converts electrical signals into optical signals before sending the

audio to the amplifier. Optical audio is 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.

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.

Remote Control:

The small electronic unit that came with your DVD Player;

allows you to operate your DVD Player from a distance.

S-Video:

Produces a clearer picture by sending separate signals for the luminance

and the color. If you connect an optional S-Video cable, you will not need to use

the supplied yellow video cable. You can use S-Video only if your TV has an S-

Video In jack.

VIDEO OUT Jack:

Jack on the back of the DVD Player that sends video to a TV.

Wide:

A TV aspect ratio setting (16:9). Displays the video appropriately when you

connect the DVD Player to a widescreen TV.
