DVD-R does include chapters. A DVD-R is duplicated and a DVD is replicated. There is no difference in quality. Creating the glass master is expensive and only makes sense for larger quantities.

If the producer is starting with a high quality digital file, the DVD R will be the same quality as a standard DVD. Producers/distributors use DVD R's for low sales volume titles because they can make a single copy on a DVD R. The minimum production run of a standard DVD is typically 1,000 units or more. The downside is DVD R's do not play properly in all DVD players, especially older players. Also there is no protective coating on the recorded side of a DVD R so the disc scratches easier. Robert A.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
