Video-CD
s
(VCD)
can
be
recognised by the logo shown
here. The VCD may contain one or
more tracks, and each track may
contain one or more chapters; this
depends on the type of material
the DVD contains (films, video
clips, TV series etc.). For historical reasons a title on the
VCD is known as a
track
and a chapter as an
index
.
In general terms video CDs are controlled in a similar
way to DVDs, but they do not offer a convenient disc
menu for selecting tracks and indexes.
This means that the only buttons you are offered are
those which control the drive mechanism, like a CD:

The pictures on a
Photo CD
are usually organised into
albums
. An album may consist of several
chapters
which are sub-divided into
pages
. Any one page may
contain individual
pictures
for you to select.
When a Photo CD is inserted, it starts automatically and
displays the album on the screen.
