JPEG information: Visualizing a JPEG photo on the screen of your TV does not require large resolutions.

Some JPEG files might not be capable of being displayed. If one or more of the JPEG files is too large for the DVD player to read, Incompatible picture size appears on the screen. Also, when a disc contains multiple files, a larger file can sometimes block the player from displaying all of the other JPEG files on the disc.

What’s MP3?

The main advantage of MP3 is that it enables storage of CD-quality music tracks on a home computer in manageable, compressed files.
