Introduction

BEFORE USE

DISC-RELATED TERMS

DVD ±R / DVD ±RW

DVD -R and DVD +R are two different standards for recordable DVD drives and discs. This format allows information to be recorded onto the DVD disc only once. DVD +RW and DVD -RW are two standards for re-writable media, meaning the DVD content can be erased and re-recorded. Single-sided discs can hold 4.38 Gigabytes and doublesided discs hold twice as much. There are no dual layer single sided recordable discs.

VCD (VIDEO CD)

A VCD holds up to 74 minutes (650 MB disc) or 80 minutes (700 MB disc) of MPEG-1 full-motion video along with quality stereo sound.

MPEG

MPEG is an international standard for video and audio compression. MPEG-1 is used in encoding video for VCD and provides for multichannel surround sound coding such as PCM, Dolby Digital, DTS and MPEG audio.

MP3

MP3 is a popular compression format used for digital audio files that yields very high near-CD quality.

WMA

Windows media audio file. A type of coding / decoding developed by Microsoft Corp.

JPEG

Joint Pictures Expert Group. JPEG is a compressed file format that allows you to save images with no limit on the number of colors.

PBC: PLAYBACK CONTROL (VIDEO CD ONLY)

Playback control is available for Video CD (VCD) version 2.0 disc formats. PBC allows you to interact with the system via menus, search functions, or other typical computer-like operations. Moreover, still pictures of high resolution can be played if they are included in the disc. Video CDs not equipped with PBC (Version 1.1) operate in the same way as audio CDs.

TITLE (DVD VIDEO DISCS ONLY)

A title is generally a distinct section of a DVD disc. For example the main feature could be title 1, a documentary describing how the film was made could be title 2, and cast interviews could be title 3. Each title is assigned a reference number enabling you to locate it easily.

CHAPTER (DVD VIDEO DISCS ONLY)

A chapter is a segment of a title such as a scene in a film or one interview in a series. Each chapter is assigned a chapter number, enabling you to locate the chapter you want. Depending on the disc, chapters may not be recorded.

SCENE (VCD)

On a video CD with PBC (playback control) functions, moving pictures and still pictures are divided into sections called “scenes”. Each scene is displayed in the menu screen and assigned a scene number, enabling you to locate the scene you want. A scene is composed of one or several tracks.

TRACK

A distinct element of audiovisual information, such as the picture or sound track for a specific language (DVD), or a musical piece on a video or audio CD. Each track is assigned a track number, enabling you to locate the track you want. DVD discs allow one track of video (with multiple angles) and several tracks of audio.
