DVD Quality, Compression and Capacity

DVD stands for Digital Versatile Disc. You need to understand different DVD media types before creating a DVD.

DVD+R and DVD-R are Recordable and write-once format. Once recorded they cannot be edited, erased or changed for the rest of its digital life. These disks are compatible with all DVD players, even older ones. DVD+RW and DVD-RW are Rewritable DVD formats. Data on these disks can be erased and recorded many times without damaging the medium.

DVDs have a fixed pre-defined dimension. If you play them on your PC, they may seem to be distorted or stretched. However, the video should look fine on your DVD player. If you intend to burn your videos to DVD disc, the dimensions should be compliant with the dimensions listed in the table below. This is usually handled by the DVD burning software's.
