DVD VIDEO (page 8)
A disc that contains up to 8 hours of moving
pictures even though its diameter is the same
as a CD.
The data capacity of a single-layer and single-
sided DVD is 4.7 GB (Giga Byte), which is 7
times that of a CD. The data capacity of a
double-layer and single-sided DVD is 8.5
GB, a single-layer and double-sided DVD is
9.4 GB, and double-layer and double-sided
DVD is 17GB.
The picture data uses the MPEG 2 format, one
of the worldwide standards of digital
compression technology. The picture data is
compressed to about 1/40 (average) of its
original size. The DVD also uses a variable
rate coding technology that changes the data
to be allocated according to the status of the
picture. Audio information is recorded in a
multi-channel format, such as Dolby Digital,
allowing you to enjoy a more real audio
presence.
Furthermore, various advanced functions
such as the multi-angle, multilingual, and
Parental Control functions are provided with
the DVD.

Normal (Interlace) format (page 66)
Normal (Interlace) format shows every other

Progressive format (page 66)
Compared to the Normal (Interlace) format
that alternately shows every other line of an
image (field) to create one frame, the
Progressive format shows the entire image at
once as a single frame. This means that while
the Normal (Interlace) format can show 30
frames/60 fields in one second, the
Progressive format can show 60 frames in one
second. The overall picture quality increases
and still images, text, and horizontal lines
appear sharper. This player is compatible
with the 480 progressive format.

in that they “fade in” gradually instead of
being drawn from top to bottom when
displayed on a browser. This lets you view the
