A compact disc that contains moving 

pictures.

The picture data uses the MPEG 1 

format, one of the worldwide standards 

for digital compression technology. The 

picture data is compressed to about 1/140 

of its original size. Consequently, a 12 cm 

VIDEO CD can contain up to 74 minutes 

of moving pictures.

VIDEO CDs also contain compact audio 

data.

Sounds outside the range of human 

hearing are compressed while the 

sounds we can hear are not compressed. 

VIDEO CDs can hold 6 times the audio 

information of conventional AUDIO 

CDs.

There are 2 versions of VIDEO CDs.

 Version 1.1: You can play back only 

moving pictures and sounds.

 Version 2.0: You can play back high-

resolution still pictures and enjoy PBC 

functions.

This system conforms to both versions.
