DVD stands for Digital Versatile Disc. Due to wide spreading of this disk as a media for high-quality video distribution, DVD is often called Digital Video Disc. But most people just use the abbreviation - DVD without specifying what V is. A DVD disc and a CD disc look the same (both 120mm diameter). But that's the end of the "sameness". It's essentially a bigger (not in size, but capacity), faster CD that can hold cinema-like video, better-than-CD audio, and computer data. DVD aims to encompass home entertainment, computers, and business information with a single digital format, eventually replacing audio CD, videotape, laserdisc, CD-ROM, and perhaps even video game cartridges. DVD has widespread support from all major electronics companies, all major computer hardware companies, and all major movie and music studios. With this unprecedented support, DVD has become the most successful consumer electronics product of all time in less than three years of its introduction.

DVD glossary

3-2 Pulldown
The process of transferring 24 frames-per-second (fps) film to 30 fps video. Every other film frame is held for 3 video fields resulting in a sequence of 3 fields, 2 fields, 3 fields, 2 fields, etc.

4:2:2 Ratio
The sampling ratio used in the D1 (CCIR 601) digital video signal. For every 4 samples of luminance there are 2 samples each of R-Y (Red minus Luminance) and B-Y (Blue minus luminance).

5.1 Channel Surround Sound
Term used to describe a discrete six-channel surround sound, where the "5" corresponds to the five full-frequency (20Hz - 20kHz) channels (left, right, center, left surround, right surround) and the "1" refers to the Low-Frequency Effects (LFE) channel. Also 5.1 is a shorthand notation for a movie that has six-channel surround sound track. The number to the left of the dot is the number of full range channels and the number to the right of the dot signifies the presence of the dedicated subwoofer channel. A movie in 5.0 sound has five full range channels and no subwoofer track; a movie in 2.0 sound can be encoded in Dolby Surround or can just be stereo.

6.1 Channel Surround Sound
Dolby Digital & DTS Surround EX. Extension of 5.1 format. One more channel was added - Rear Center or Back Surround.

7.1 Channel Surround Sound
Dolby Digital & DTS THX Surround EX. Further extension of 5.1 surround sound format. Added in 6.1 Surround Rear Center channel was split into two channels - Back/Rear Left and Right to improve precision of surround sound.

There are 4 standard formats. D10 and D18 are not as common.

A DVD-5 (single sided) DVD-Video disc will hold nominally 133 minutes of high quality MPEG-2 encoded video, together with three surround-sound audio channels and four subtitle channels. (Without video compression one DVD-5 disc would hold only about 3 minutes of video).

A DVD-9 (dual layer) disc increases the playing time to 240 minutes of continuous video.

A DVD-10 (double sided) disc will hold a nominal 133 minutes on each side (ie 266 minutes in all), but the disc needs to be turned over to play the other side.

A DVD-18 (dual layer, doubled sided) disc can hold 240 minutes on each side and the disc also needs to be turned over to play the other side.

Most DVD is D9 or D5 format. DVD-Cloner can clone D9 to just ONE DVDr/rw disc (D5 format) without evident losing.
