DVD-Video uses state-of-the-art MPEG2 data compression technology to register an entire movie on a single 5-inch disc. DVD’s variable bit-rate compression, running at up to 9.8 Mbits/second, captures even the most complex pictures in their original quality.

The crystal-clear digital pictures have a horizontal resolution of over 500 lines, with 720 pixels (picture elements) to each line. This resolution is more than double that of VHS, superior to Laser Disc, and entirely comparable to the digital masters made in recording studios.

DVD-Video discs conform to either the PAL or NTSC video standard. This dual-standard player can play both types and present them in the best possible way on your multistandard TV screen.

As the universal video system of the future, DVD-Video offers optimum viewing on any TV screen.
