Description | Released in 1995, DVD is a removable storage device. They quickly overtook VHS to become the most popular format for the distribution of video due to their durability (approximately 100 years) and the superior quality of the image. DVD is slowly being overtaken by Blu-Ray which provides a further improvement in terms of quality. Another threat to the sales of DVDs are the rise of online streaming services such as Netflix which allow a user instant access to video with similar or superior picture quality. At its peak several hundred million DVDs were sold yearly. |

Technical Details | DVD uses a MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 compression, however MPEG-2 supports higher resolution, up to 720x576 pixels. The DVD format also supports several types of audio including MP2 and Dolby Digital. A DVD may also include subtitles which are stored as bitmap images meaning that any language can be stored as subtitles. DVDs may also contain chapters which allow the user to easily navigate to a specific point in the video. Although not part of the official DVD Video specification, a number of distributors have added copy protection to limit the ease with which a DVD may be ripped and copied. |

Technical Details | Flash Video FLV files contain video bit streams which are a proprietary variant of the H.263 video standard, under the name of Sorenson Spark (FourCC FLV1). Sorenson Spark is an older codec for FLV files but it is also a widely available and compatible one, because it was the first video codec supported in Flash Player. The Flash Video FLV file format supports two versions of a so called 'screenshare' (Screen video) codec which is an encoding format designed for screencasts. Both these formats are bitmap tile based, can be lossy by reducing color depths and are compressed using zlib. The second version is only playable in Flash Player 8 and newer - Audio in Flash Video files is usually encoded as MP3. However, audio in Flash Video FLV files recorded from the user's microphone use the proprietary Nellymoser Asao Codec. FLV files also support uncompressed audio or ADPCM format audio. |
