DVD Disc Structure

A DVD disc is comprised of “titles,” while an
Audio CD, Video CD or SVCD is comprised
of “tracks.” Each title may be divided into some
“chapters.” For example, if a DVD disc con-
tains some movies, each movie may have its
own title number, and each movie may be
divided into some chapters. In a DVD karaoke
disc, each song usually has its own title number
and does not have chapters.
