BD-RE (page 59) Glossary AACS “Advanced Access Content System” is a specification for managing digital entertainment contents stored on the next generation of prerecorded and recorded optical media. The specification enables consumers to enjoy digital entertainment content, including high-definition content. AVCHD (page 61) *1 A high definition specification that utilizes 1080 effective scanning lines and the interlace format.
DTS-HD Master Audio (page 63) 24p True Cinema (page 44) DTS-HD Master Audio has a maximum transmission rate of 24.5 Mbps, and uses lossless compression (Lossless), and DTSHD Master Audio corresponds to a maximum sampling frequency of 192 kHz, and maximum of 7.1ch. Movies shot with a film camera consist of 24 frames per second. Since conventional televisions (both CRT and flat panels) display frames either at 1/60 or 1/50 second intervals, the 24 frames do not appear at an even pace.
