A Short Glossary of DVD

Terminology

Angles When making a DVD, the studio can incorporate various camera angles which you can select by using the ANGLE button on the remote. Note that not all DVDs contain multiple camera angles.

Author Menu The Author menu is the menu on a disc that allows you to change settings for that disc. We call it the “author” menu because its features are “authored” by the maker of the disc, and may vary from disc to disc.

Chapter Each Title on a DVD can be divided into chapters (similar to tracks on an audio CD).

Dolby Digital* If you have a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder, you will obtain the full benefit of Pro Logic from the same DVD movies that provide full 5.1-channel Dolby Digital soundtracks, as well as from titles with the Dolby Surround mark.

Title A DVD may contain several different titles, for example if a disc contains four different movies, each might be considered a title (and each may have several Chapters within it).

Subtitling Because so much information can be stored on a DVD, many discs may contain foreign language subtitles.
