In Dolby Pro-Logic, the center channel provides as much information as do the left and right channels. Our "Accurate Imaging System" sees to it that the same high power(70 watts per channel...) is available to each of three front channels(left, right and center). The advantages? For one, it makes the dialog more distinct and real. And the sense of left/right motion is greatly improved, making movie viewing all the more exciting and involving. 1, record 16, English, - accurate%20imaging%20system

Image instrumentale précise. Avec Dolby Pro-Logic, la voie centrale fournit autant d'informations musicales que les voies droite et gauche. Cette constatation nous a conduit à concevoir des récepteurs délivrant la même puissance (70 Watts sur 8 Ohms [...]) vers les trois voies avant. Le premier avantage réside dans le fait que les dialogues se comprennent plus aisément; le second tient à ce que les mouvements des sources sonores (de la droite vers la gauche, de l'avant vers l'arrière, et inversement) sont mieux perçus et plus réguliers. 1, record 16, French, - image%20instrumentale%20pr%C3%A9cise

The video-on-demand model takes advantage of some form of two-way communication between the home and the video source, which could be a low-bandwidth back channel on a CATV path or a phone line with sufficient bandwidth to carry a compressed video signal. The home may be furnished with a low-cost box, which accepts signals from a hand-held control and which transmits the appropriate status to the video control center. The viewer uses the hand-held control to navigate a selection menu and choose a program. Shortly after the selection is made, the program begins playing. During the course of the movie the viewer is able to pause, reposition, and use other VCR-like controls. 2, record 17, English, - video%2Don%2Ddemand%20channel
