VIDEO CD
A compact disc that contains moving pictures.
The picture data uses the MPEG 1 format, one
of the worldwide standards of digital
compression technology. The picture data is
compressed to about 1/140 of its original size.
Consequently, a 12 cm VIDEO CD can contain
up to 74 minutes of moving pictures.
VIDEO CDs also contain compact audio data.
Sounds outside the range of human hearing are
compressed while the sounds we can hear are
not compressed. VIDEO CDs can hold 6 times
the audio information of conventional audio
CDs.
There are 2 versions of VIDEO CDs.
• Version 1.1: You can play only moving pictures
and sounds.
• Version 2.0: You can play high-resolution still
pictures and enjoy PBC functions.
This system conforms to both versions.
