offers much higher video quality than VCD, but lower
than that of DVD. It can hold 35 minutes of video, and can
contain menus and chapters like a DVD, as well as
slideshows with background audio. SVCD can be played
on a PC with DVD playback software, and on some
standalone DVD players.

broadcasts use around the world. PowerProducer helps
you choose the right TV format by allowing you to select
the country where you plan to play the disc you create.

video of a quality about the same as that of VHS. VCD can
hold up to 74/80 minutes of video on a 650/700Mb disc,

as slideshows with background audio. VCD uses the
MPEG compression standard, and can be played on a PC

alone DVD players.
