The decision DVD

CD-ROM has triggered a revolution in the computer industry, but the only real change we have seen increases since arrival rate. And to speed things up if you're transferring large amounts of data.

If you listen to music, 4X unit will work as good as the others (except perhaps a little resampling digital or research tracks). In fact, the media High Speed can - because a change over time - even decrease the rate of transfer in the case of small files.

The only other interesting point of development Technology CD-ROM has a number of manufacturers have attempted to large disk, although most writers and most burning software does not support anyway. The result is that there is room for a new form of media, and is in the DVD. Is it not the intention of films DVD is coming and other things? Yes, but there are more movies on DVD.

To begin, there is the issue of capacity. A DVD can store 4.7 GB of data. But this is only a drop in the largest ocean. DVDs can also be dual layer and double sided, which means you can store more data on a single disc. In fact, can hold an impressive 17GB of data in a double-sided disc and dual layer, CD-ROM average from blowing out of the water.

Sure, you've already created huge music and data collections on CD-ROM and does not pull all the way to DVD. Fortunately - and this is one of the advantages of DVD technology - all DVD players are compatible, you can always listen to their CD and access their data on CD-ROM using a DVD-ROM. This is essential to the success of the DVD, and without it, the DVD would be any other medium. But it is not, and if you know that you could find yourself behind.

All this seems like a change that is interesting, but also DVD speeds seem to be much slower than the speed of the CD-ROM. If you can store data as probably have faster drives? The problem is that it a bit like comparing apples and oranges. Because DVD discs have a much greater capacity, the slopes located much closer to gather information so that more can be read in a short space around the disk.

In addition, DVD players money faster than CD-ROM, a DVD player runs at 1X the same speed as a 3X CD-ROM. With CD-ROM tracks are more remote, so DVD player can increase your reading speed ... often significantly. The result is that the speeds used in these two technologies are not fully comparable Although, obviously, is a relationship between the two.

For fans of the movie DVD, the speed is unlikely that a large difference. In fact, the only difference is probably the view of watching a movie on DVD DVD-Rom Drive is smoother faster by scanning through the film and faster searching.

There are a number of other factors that deserve examined, including the unit itself. Unlike DVD players or decoders independent, a DVD player can not, by itself, play DVD movies. For this you need a MPEG-2 decoder of some sort. Until recently, the most common form of this was done using a decoder card and software for DVD playback.

What changes, however, and many of the most high-end graphics cards are now compatible with DVDs and are capable of decoding MPEG-2 (with the help of specialized software). Thus, you can also find that the Graphics Card or DVD comes with a "soft DVD player." Anyway, "the flexible use of DVD players" of system resources, you must have a good amount of RAM and a reasonable processor.

More importantly, you need a good Sound Card and graphics card with a good amount of dedicated memory. At least 16 MB. You may find that you can use your DVD player without a decoder card, but the absence of certain characteristics of a decoder card good offer.

So what is a decoder card? Well, if you have a compatible graphics card decoder DVD is essential. In addition, if you do not have a graphics card that can provide high resolution graphics, a decoder card will ensure that you have still can watch movies in high resolution 32-bit color.

With a good DAC (digital / analog) cards as you would expect from an image clear and sharp high refresh rates. The dedicated hardware also frees resources, the management of your CPU, RAM and graphics card.
