Bit rate refers to the amount of video/audio
data per second in a disc. When the bit rate
level is high, there is a large amount of data.
However, this does not always mean that
you can get higher quality pictures or
sounds.

has dual layers
Indicates the approximate point where the
disc is playing.
If it is a dual-layer DVD, the receiver
indicates which layer is being read ("Layer
