DVD video disc glossary
●DVD video discs: Digital Versatile Discs that hold world’s standard video.
DVD video discs have adopted “MPEG2”, one of the world standards of
digital compression technologies. The picture data is compressed by 1/
40 on average and stored. Variable rate encoded technology has been
adopted in which the volume of data assigned to the picture is changed
depending on the picture format. Audio data is stored using PCM and
Dolby digital, which enables higher sound. Furthermore, multi-angle and
multi-language features will also help you enjoy the more advanced tech-
nology of DVD video.
● Viewer restrictions: This feature limits what can be viewed in conformity
with the level of restrictions of the country. The level of restrictions varies
depending on the DVD video disc. Some DVD video discs cannot be
played at all, or violent scenes are skipped or replaced with other scenes.
• Level 1: DVD video discs for children can be played.
• Level 2 - 7: DVD video discs for children and G-rated movies can be
played.
• Level 8: All types of DVD video discs can be played.
● Multi-angle feature: Allows you to enjoy the same scene at different
angles.
● Multi-language feature: Allows you to select the language of the subtitles
and audio.
● Region codes: Region codes are provided on DVD players and DVD
discs. If the DVD video disc does not have the same region code as the
DVD player, you cannot play the disc on the DVD player.
● Audio: This DVD player can play linear PCM, Dolby digital, dts and
MPEG audio format DVD. Other decoded types cannot be played.
● Title and chapter: Video and audio programs stored on DVD video discs
are divided into sections by title and chapter.
● Title: The largest unit of the video and audio programs stored on DVD
video discs. Usually, one piece of a movie, one album, or one audio pro-
gram is assigned as a title.
● Chapter: A unit smaller than a title. A title comprises multiple chapters.
