Disc structure — DVD, Video CD (VCD) and Audio CD (CD)

A DVD disc consists of Titles, and each title may be divided into some Chapters. (See Example 1.)

For example, if a DVD disc contains some movies, each movie may have its own title number, and it may be further divided into some chapters.

On the other hand, a VCD or CD consists of Tracks. (See Example 2.)

In general, each song has its own track number. (On some discs, each track may also be divided by Indexes.)

When playing back a VCD with Playback Control (PBC) function, you can select what to view using the menu shown on the TV screen. (While operating a Video CD using the menu, some of the functions such as Repeat and Track Search may not work.)
