ENGLISH
DVD Video
This refers to a high-density optical disc on which high-
quality pictures and sound have been recorded by means
of digital signals. Incorporating a new video compression
technology (MPEG-2) and high-density recording
technology. DVD Video enables esthetically pleasing full-
motion video to be recorded over long periods of time (for
instance, a whole movie can be recorded).
DVD Video has a structure consisting of two 0.6 mm thin
discs which are adhered to each other. Since the thinner the
disc, the higher the density at which the information can be
recorded, a DVD Video has a greater capacity than a single
1.2 mm thick disc. Since the two thin discs are adhered to
each other, there is the potential to achieve double-sided
play sometime in the future for even longer duration play.
MPEG
MPEG stands for Moving Picture Expert Group. It is
regarded as an international standard for compressing and
restoring digital video and audio signal. MPEG standards
include MPEG-1, MPEG-2 and MPEG-4. Video CD and MP3
are based on MPEG-1, while DVD Video is based on
MPEG-2.
MP3
MP3 is an audio data reduction format, which stands for
MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3. Using MP3, you can achieve a data
reduction of about 1:10.
