digital video Video that consists of a binary signal, encoded as a series of zeroes and ones. All data that a computer
processes must be digital, so analog video must first be converted to digital video before it can be edited on a computer.

physical damage. They can cause random, flashing color pixels in affected frames. To avoid drop-outs, use a head-
cleaning tape regularly in your camcorder.

playback.
DVD formats DVD burners support one or more of the following disc formats: DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R,
DVD+RW, DVD+R DL, and DVD-R DL. (Note that -R and +R are different, as are -RW and +RW.) R discs let you
record once to the disc. RW discs let you rerecord repeatedly. DL discs are dual layer. Use R discs for broadest
compatibility; not all DVD players can read RW discs.
