Navigating DVDs, CDs and Video CDs

All discs are divided up into smaller, more manageable sections so that you can find specific content more easily.

DVD and DVD-RW discs are divided into one or more titles. Each title may be further divided into several chapters. Occassionally, a chapter may contain index points, effectively dividing the chapter up into several parts, too.
