Description
The issue of DVD player compatibility with the DVD-R format, which is the short-run format most event videographers will use to deliver their productions, is, at times, a most challenging issue. However, it can be explained in terms both useful and productive. An explanation can be useful because knowledge about the different DVD formats leads to a greater awareness and productive because awareness can be the catalyst to positive action.
When DVD-R was introduced a few years ago, film and video producers, mainly from the motion picture industry, used the format primarily to view their productions in the DVD medium before committing to broad-market delivery of DVD Video. Writing to, or burning to a disc, as it is commonly called, creates a DVD-R (R as in recordable). That's a different kind of disc than DVD Video – which is the format we get every time we purchase a major motion picture on a DVD. The DVD-R's produced at that time were created and viewed with expensive technology. Each time a DVD-R produced met discriminating expectations, a DLT tape was made of the production, shipped to a replicator who then used the tape to create a glass master. The glass master was then used as a sort of die to press DVD Videos in the number required satisfying the demand. This process continues today.
As the years passed, the cost to produce a DVD-R came within easy reach of a much larger market. Smaller producers of video now began to use more affordable compression, authoring, and writing technologies. . As a result, the number of DVD-Rs, almost always produced in short runs, were being delivered to a growing consumer market. However, from the beginning, the manufacturers of DVD players had only to build their products to the spec required to play the DVD Video format. They had little or no reason to build their players to play other formats like DVD-R. As consumer demand for DVD-R compatibility grew, so too did the percentage of player manufacturers of DVD accommodating the DVD-R format. In 1999, less than 25% of the players sold could play DVD-R. In 2000, that number increased to over 50% and in 2001, to over 75%. Eventually, economics will drive all manufacturers of DVD players to accommodate DVD-R. Why? Because U.S. consumers will soon replace the 200 million VCRs in their homes with DVD players and the popularity of the DVD-R format will cause those same consumers to demand compatibility. Today, every DVD player manufacturer recognizes this trend and is making the necessary changes to bring all DVD players into compliance.
