About DVDs
Music CDs and DVDs have grooves (tracks) in which the
digital data is recorded. The data is represented as
microscopic pits recorded into the track – these pits are read
by a laser beam to play the disc. On DVDs, the density of the
tracks and pits is twice that of CDs, so DVDs can contain more
data in less space.
A 12 cm disc can contain one movie or about four hours of
music.
In addition, DVDs provide sharp picture quality with vivid colors
thanks to a horizontal resolution of over 500 lines (compared to less
than 300 for VHS tape). With the addition of an optional, digital audio
processor (PXA-H900/PXA-H510/PXA-H700), you can recreate the
power and presence of a movie theater with Dolby Digital 5.1-channel
Surround.
