DVD Studio Overview

DVD Studio is a Unix-based CD/DVD recording solution (download PDF - 66KB). DVD Studio uses Young Minds' independent controller architecture to manage the recording process. The independent controller offloads recording tasks from your host computer and as a result, recording consumes only minimal host resources.

Key applications include:

• Archiving and distributing large data sets
• Developing and testing DVD-ROM and/or CD-ROM applications prior to replication
• Developing and testing multimedia content
• Archiving video and audio files
• Applications that require both CD and DVD recording capabilities

DVD-R Capacity and Compatibility

With 4.7 GB capacity per single-sided disc, DVD-R holds more data than any other non-proprietary optical disc format - up to seven times more than CD-R. DVD-R is the only storage technology that was designed with true DVD-ROM compatibility in mind. You can use any DVD-ROM drive to read back the discs you record with DVD Studio.

DVD-R is also the only DVD storage technology that matches the capacity of a standard DVD-ROM disc on a single side. DVD-R is both durable and non-erasable, making it the only high capacity optical disc technology that can be relied on for archiving applications in legal, medical, and mission-critical applications. DVD Studio provides unmatched file-system compatibility features - including ISO 9660, Rock Ridge, and Joliet. In addition, DVD Studio allows you to preserve native file system attributes (for example, POSIX).
