MPEG-2 file for DVD

MPEG-2 is used on DVDs and digital satellite television and yields highly compressed files of extremely high quality.

MPEG-2 files are captured at full broadcast resolution. NTSC MPEG-2 (DVD) is 704 x 480 pixels, while PAL MPEG-2 (DVD) is 704 x 576 pixels. Thus, MPEG-2 files results in bigger file sizes compared to MPEG-1.

MPEG-2 is excellent for any type of movie. USB Instant DVD and VideoStudio let you capture directly from your camcorder, VCR or DVD Player directly in the MPEG-2 format, perform frame-accurate editing, and create a final movie in the same format. You can further use the Ulead DVD Wizard to create a DVD that can be played directly on a home DVD player or your PC’s DVD-ROM.
