adds black bars to the top and bottom of the screen.
lossless A compression scheme that doesnt affect signal quality, such as the transfer of DV via an IEEE 1394

sensitive to the human eye, and offer the highest compression rates available.
luminance The effect of the combined values for brightness and contrast.
Machinima A method for creating movies that combines traditional filmmaking, animation, and virtual 3D gaming
technology. Machinima is the combined form of “machine/cinema” or “machine/animation.

movement. See also MPEG .
motion menu A DVD menu that has a moving background image instead of a still image, animated buttons, or both.
MP3 MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3. Both a compression standard and a file format for digital audio.
MPEG Motion Pictures Expert Group. Also, a type of compression and a video format. Unlike JPEG, where individual
frames are compressed, MPEG compression calculates and encodes only the differences between one frame and its
preceding frame.
MPEG-1 Compression standard used to convert analog video for use in digital applications. It was designed to deliver
near-broadcast-quality video through a standard speed CD-ROM. The compression ratio is about 100:1.
MPEG-2 Extension of the MPEG-1 standard. It was designed to meet the requirements of TV broadcast studios.
MPEG-2 is the broadcast-quality video found on DVDs and requires a decoder for playback.
MPEG-3 Developed for HDTV but became obsolete when MPEG-2 was discovered to adequately meet HDTV
requirements. Often confused with MP3.
