sided DVD, at 4.7 GB (Giga Byte), is 7 times

The picture data uses the MPEG 2 format, one of
the worldwide standards of digital compression
technology. The picture data is compressed to

realistic audio presence.
Furthermore, various advanced functions such
as the multi-angle, multilingual, and Parental
Control functions are provided with the DVD.
