Standard DVDs playable on standard dvd players, need mpeg-1 or mpeg-2 video.
It can be one of many different resolutions, but it must be mpeg-1 or
mpeg-2, so anything that is not must be converted for format and resolution
if necessary...
Audio cds, many times referred to as redbook CD audio is CBR(constant
bitrate) @ 1411 kb/s, so they are limited in how much music you can fit on a
CD. DVDs can and usually do use VBR, variable bitrate video, so you can fit
a large range of durations based on teh avg bitrate...most audio in DVD is
CBR, DD/DTS, LPCM, are both CBR. If you want to read about th valid audio
and video options, try the FAQ, specifically sections...
