What about blank DVD discs?

DVD Photo Slideshow - Convert Photo or picture to DVD, Flash...
Blank DVDs can be found in most consumer electronics and computer stores, usually in the computer department. Since prices vary, I will not quote any here. The main thing to remember is to get discs that are of the same format as your recorder. For example, if you have a DVD recorder that records in the DVD+R/+RW format make sure you buy discs that have that label on the packaging. You cannot use a +R disc in a -R recorder or vice versa.

Will CD-i play DVD discs?

The New International CD-i Association
No. A DVD is a different kind of disc, based on a high density format. It requires a new physical laser unit to read the discs. A CD-i player can only read discs based on the normal infra-red laser technique: compact discs or CDs. It is unlikely that a combination playback device for CD-i and DVD will ever become available, nor will it be possible to upgrade a CD-i player to play DVD discs since this should require the replacement of the entire disc read-out mechanism.

Can labels be printed on DVD discs?

Frequently Asked Questions | CD | Digital Disc Manufacturing...
It depends on the type of disc. If it is single-sided, a label may be printed on the top side. But because DVDs are more susceptible to heat than CDs are, silk-screening - which uses ultraviolet heat - may not be the best choice. Ink also affects the flatness of DVDs more than CDs. Pit art was developed to avoid these problems. In it, the pits are recorded only in some parts of a disc side, in a graphic pattern that gives the appearance of a design or a label.

All DVD recordable discs are extremely sensitive to heat, UV light and humidity. You should avoid exposing them to any extremely hot environment such as automobile interiors in the sun, or inside near radiators or heaters, or near an outside window, and so on. It's best to keep all DVD-R discs stored in a cool, dry place, closed up in a blank plastic DVD movie case. This will ensure that they last the longest. Avoid any abrasive, scratching or etching treatment of the disc's top or bottom.

Are DVD discs PAL or NTSC?

Codefree DVD Player Guide
DVD discs are still either PAL or NTSC standard. Also, similar to multisystem VCRs, DVD players will not convert video standards. When you're playing an NTSC-standard DVD, it will output an NTSC signal. When you're playing a PAL-standard DVD, it will output a PAL signal. There are two ways to watch both PAL and NTSC DVDs. You can either view your DVDs on a multisystem TV, or purchase a Tenlab video converter to convert your DVD player's output signal.
