DVD video discs
●
A DVD video disc is a Digital Versatile Disc that holds video. DVD video discs have
adopted "MPEG2", one of the world standards of digital compression technolo-
gies. The picture data is compressed by 1/40 on average and stored. Variable rate
encoded technology in which the volume of data assigned to the picture is changed
depending on the picture format has also been adopted. Audio data is stored using
PCM and Dolby Digital, which enables higher quality of sound. Furthermore, multi-
angle and multi-language features will also help you enjoy the more advanced
technology of DVD video.
