VIDEO CD
A compact disc which contains moving
pictures.
VIDEO CDs contain compact picture data
using the MPEG 1 format, one of the world
wide standards of digital compressing
technology. The picture data is compressed
about 120 times. Consequently,
a 12 cm VIDEO CD can contain up to 74
minutes of moving pictures.
VIDEO CDs also contain compact audio data.
Sounds outside the range of human hearing are
compressed while the sounds we can hear are
not compressed. VIDEO CDs can hold six
times the audio data of conventional audio
CDs.
There are two versions for VIDEO CDs:
Version 1.1 (VIDEO CDs without PBC
functions):
You can play only moving pictures and sounds.
Version 2.0 (VIDEO CDs with PBC functions):
You can play still pictures and enjoy PBC
functions.
This system can play both versions.
