Video CD (VCD)
VCD is probably the most common application for MPEG-1 video and
has been a popular format in Europe and Asia for many years for
movies. Before DVD players existed, VCD players were very popular
virtually everywhere except North America. VCD is the same video
bit rate and resolution as MPEG-1 but copied to a CD-R in a format
that will play in VCD players. The advantage of VCD is that you can
record approximately 70 minutes of audio and video on a CD-R. The
disadvantage is that the quality will be much lower than a DVD movie.
• Create Video CD’s - they play back in most late model DVD players.
Microsoft Windows Media Video 9
This is Microsoft’s proprietary video compression standard that is similar
to MPEG-4. Windows Media video 9 can be captured in a variety of
resolutions and video bit rates depending upon the target application.
With Instant VideoMPX we have included two ways to create Windows
Media Video 9 (WMV 9) content:
• VideoStudio 8 - you can easily select the Windows Media Capture
plug-in to capture video directly into a WMV 9 file.
• Windows Media Encoder - install the Windows Media Encoder to
capture WMV 9 files on your PC or broadcast video across your
home, office network or serve over the Internet.
