Angle

been simultaneously shot from a number of different angles
(the same scene is shot from the front, from the left side,
from the right side, etc.). With such discs, the ANGLE button

Chapter Number

searched quickly using these numbers.
Chapter Number
This refers to a high-density optical disc on which
highquality pictures and sound have been recordedm
by means of digital signals. Incorporating a new video
compression technology (MPEG II) and high-density
recording technology. DVD discs enables aesthetically
pleasing fullmotion video to be recorded over long period
of time (for instance, a whole movie can be recorded).
DVD discs have a structure consisting of two 0.6mm 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 disc has a greater capacity than a single
1.2mm thick disc. Since the two thin discs are adhered to
each other, there is the potential to achieve doule-sided
play sometime in the future for even longer duration play.
