Entertainment for the new millennium
Video was never like this before! Digital video discs provide perfect digital,
studio-quality pictures; three dimensional digital, multi-channel audio; story
sequences screened from your choice of camera angle; sound tracks in as
many as eight languages; and up to 32 subtitles (if available on disc). Whether
you watch DVD-Video on wide-screen or regular TV, you always see it the
way it was meant to be.
Digital video
DVD-Video uses state-of-the-art MPEG2 data compression technology to
register an entire movie on a single 5-inch disc. DVD’s variable bitrate
compression, running at up to 9.8 Mbits/second, captures even the most
complex pictures in their original quality.
The crystal-clear digital pictures have a horizontal resolution of over 500
lines, with 720 pixels (picture elements) to each line. This resolution is more
than double that of VHS, superior to Laser Disc, and entirely comparable with
digital masters made in recording studios.
DVD-Video discs conform to either the PAL or NTSC video standard. This
player can play both PAL and NTSC discs, presenting them in the best
possible way on your multi-standard TV screen.
As the universal video system of the future, DVD-Video offers optimal
pictures on any TV screen.
