About DVD VIDEO software types and
the conversion method
Th e DVD VIDEO soft ware can be
divided into 2 types:
 Film-based soft ware
Film-based soft ware is derived from
fi lm and displays the images at 24
frames per second.
 Video-based soft ware
Video-based soft ware is derived from
TV, such as dramas and sitcoms and
displays images at 30 frames or 60
fi elds per second.
Some DVD VIDEO contains both types
of soft ware. In order for these images to
appear in your TV naturally when the
video output is in progressive format, the
progressive signals need to be converted
to match your DVD VIDEO soft ware.
