Blu-ray Discs
Blu-ray discs (BD) are optical discs developed to enable burning and
playing High-Definition video (HD), or to store data. BDs are burned
using different technologies from CDs or DVDs, but can be made
compatible with the appropriate hardware. BDs can be single-layer (2
hours HD/25GB of data) or dual-layer (4 hours HD or 50GB of data).
PowerProducer supports burning to rewritable, single-layer Blu-ray
discs.
Video Recording Formats
Below is a description of the video recording formats that CyberLink
PowerProducer supports for burning discs:
DVD-Video
DVD-Video is the most widely supported DVD
movie format, which can be played on almost all
DVD players.
DVD-VR
A video format on DVD-RW or DVD-RAM discs.
DVD-VR discs can be played on a DVD player with
the RW Compatible logo.
DVD+VR
A video format on DVD+R/RW, DVD-R/RW discs.
DVD+VR discs can be played on a DVD-Video player.
SVCD
SVCD (Super Video Compact Disc) is a CD video
format that uses MPEG compression. SVCD offers
much higher video quality than VCD. It can hold 35
minutes of video, and can contain menus and
chapters like a DVD, as well as slide shows with
background audio. SVCDs can be played on a PC
with DVD playback software, and on some
standalone DVD players.
