Nero DigitalTM files can contain a video track, up to 8 audio tracks and up to 32 overlay tracks (e. g. To create Nero DigitalTM files you need the "Nero Recode" or "Nero Vision Express" software. You can find more information on Nero DigitalTM at www. nerodigital. com MP4 video CDs An MP4 video is an encoder/decoder, based on the MPEG-4 compression system, which is used to decrypt and display compressed video data. This enables the DVD player to play back videos compressed in the DivX© format. This results in playback quality with fewer artefacts and higher compression. MP4 video data is packed into the AVI file along with audio data which is compressed as MP3 data, this means: MP4 video and MP3 audio form the AVI file. MP3 CDs MP3 stands for MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3 and comes from the Motion Picture Expert Group (MPEG) standard, which was developed for compressing film data. The MP3 format enables audio files to be saved on a computer with a sound quality similar to that of a CD. This only requires about 10 % of the original data quantity. The standard encoding bit rate for MP3 files is 128 kbps. Generally, the higher the bit rate of an MP3 file, the better the sound quality. Most MP3 files on the Internet are encoded at 128 or 160 kbps. MP3 files can be downloaded from the Internet and then burned onto a CD-ROM. Your DVD player can read the ID3 tag from the file header, which contains information on the song and the artist, and displays this in the info menu/status display. 28 PLAYING AUDIO/VIDEO FILES _______________________ MP3 CDs contain sound recordings. They can be played in the normal manner on an audio system. The digital signals transmitted during MP3 playback are PCM encoded, regardless of the audio output setting. The signals are output with the same data rate as the music source (possibilities are: 32 kbps ­320 kbps, ideal: 128 kbps). MP3 files can be organised into folders and subfolders similar to files on a computer. JPEG CDs JPEG stands for Joint Picture Experts Group. This process was designed to compress picture files. JPEG files can be burned onto a CD along with other file types. These CDs are known as file CDs or mixed-mode CDs. For example, the CD could contain MP3 files (audio) and JPEG files (for example to display album covers).
