● DVD video discs: Digital Versatile Discs that hold the 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 encoding technology has been adopted in which the
volume of data assigned to the picture is changed depending on the picture for-
mat. 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 technology of DVD video.
