Glossary/Index
What are DVDs, VCDs and S-VCDs?
DVDs
DVD is the abbreviation for Digital Versatile Disc. DVDs
serve to store audio and video data; they are available in 8
cm and 12 cm (diameter) formats. DVDs offer – thanks to
their storage capacity which is many timer higher than CD-
Rs/CD-RWs – a playback duration of the audio and video
data stored on them of up to eight hours.
VCDs/S-VCDs
Video-CD (VCD) and Super Video-CD (S-VCD) describe two
methods for compressed– i.e. to save space – storage of
films on CDs. VCDs and S-VCDs are available in 8 cm and
12 cm (diameter) formats. Their storage capacity is many
times lower than that of DVDs. Therefore they only offer a
playback duration of the audio and video data stored on
them of 20 minutes (8 cm format) and 74 minutes (12 cm
format) respectively
There are two versions of VCDs:
• Version 1.1 VCDs/S-VCDs can only play audio and video
data.
• Version 2.0 VCDs/S-VCDs have so-called PBC (Playback
Control) functions. In addition, fixed images with high-
er resolution can be played back
What are titles and chapters?
The largest units of picture and sound units on DVDs
are called titles; on many DVDs, the (main) film has title
number 01. For bonus material (e. g. film trailers, back-
ground information etc.), which is available on many DVDs,
other title numbers can possibly be used.
The next smallest picture and sound units below titles are
called chapters. If the title(s) of a DVD is(are) subdivided
into chapters, then numbers are allocated to them and if
these numbers are entered, then the chapters can be se-
lected directly.
Please note that not on all DVDs
• is(are) the title(s) subdivided in (numbered) chapters
• are the chapters also described as scenes (e. g. in the
main menu of DVDs)
What are Scart, S-Video, composite
video?
Scart
Scart describes a 21-pin standard plug-type connection
through which the RGB signals, video signals and S-Video
signals as well as quite a few control and additional signals
are transmitted.
S-Video
When connecting a DVD player to a television via S-Video,
brightness and colour signals are separated; this achieves
a higher focus and a lower so-called “coloured noise”. Col-
oured noise is what one calls the overlaying of the col-
oured, mostly strongly saturated parts of a video image
made by an irregular, turbulent structural disturbance.
Composite video
Video signal or FBAS signal; this is a picture signal in which
both colour and brightness information is contained si-
multaneously.
