VIDEO CD
A compact disc which contains moving
pictures.
VIDEO CDs contain compact picture
information using the MPEG 1 format, one of
the world wide standards of digital compact
technology. The picture information is
compressed about 120 times. Consequently, a
12 cm VIDEO CD can contain up to 74
minutes of moving pictures.
VIDEO CDs also contain compact audio
information. Sounds outside the range of
human hearing are compressed while the
sounds we can hear are not compressed.
VIDEO CDs can hold six times the audio
information of conventional audio CDs.
There are two versions for VIDEO CDs;
Version 1.1 (VIDEO CDs without PBC
functions):
You can play only moving pictures and
sounds.
Version 2.0 (VIDEO CDs with PBC functions):
You can play still pictures and enjoy PBC
functions.
This player can play to both versions.
