On handling discs
Do not touch the playback side of the disc.
Do not stick paper or tape to discs.
On cleaning discs
Fingerprints and dust on the disc cause picture and
sound deterioration. Wipe the disc from the center
outwards with a soft cloth. Always keep the disc clean.
Do not use any type of solvent such as thinner,
benzine, commercially available cleaners or antistatic
spray for vinyl LPs. It may damage the disc.
On storing discs
Do not store discs in a place subject to direct sunlight
or near heat sources.
Do not store discs in places subject to moisture and
dust such as a bathroom or near a humidifier.
Store discs vertically in a case. Stacking or placing
objects on discs outside of their case may cause
warping.
Structure of disc contents
Normally, DVD video discs are divided into titles, and the
titles are subdivided into chapters.
VIDEO CDs/audio CDs are divided into tracks.
Title: Divided contents of a DVD video disc.
Roughly corresponds to a story title in short
stories.
Chapter: Divided contents of a title. This corresponds
to a chapter in a story.
Track: Divided contents of a VIDEO CD or an audio
CD.
Each title, chapter, or track is assigned a number, which
is called “title number”, “chapter number”, or “track
number” respectively.
Some discs may not have these numbers.
When you record on a DVD-RAM/R/RW disc, one
recording will always equal one title.
