Before you start 01 Chapter 1 Before you start Features BD-ROM playback Blu-ray Disc is a next-generation video disc format featuring far higher disc capacity than conventional DVD. The higher capacity makes a whole range of new and enhanced features possible, such as support for high-definition video up to 1920 x 1080 pixels, high quality, surround sound audio, greater interactivity and richer content. BD-ROM discs are commercially produced discs (Video Distribution format) that can contain movie and other video content, interactive content, enhanced menu features such as pop-up menus (press POPUP MENU/MENU during playback for these), full-colour, highdefinition animated buttons and animated menu transition effects, button sounds (sounds are played when menu buttons are selected or activated), high-definition bitmap subtitles supporting full-colour images with frame-accurate animation effects up to full video frame rate, and so on. While BD capacity is enough for most applications, the BD-ROM standard allows for content to be spread across several discs, removing the limit of one physical disc. Follow the on-screen instructions during playback when using these special kinds of discs.
