Video Editing Tips

Just as DVD recording equipment has rock bottomed, out comes Blu-ray. Blu-ray is a newer disk technology that uses blue lasers to read and write disks. It has more than double the capacity of DVD’s (which stands at about 4 gigabytes). Double-layered disks can store 8 times that capacity. The commercial versions of the burners are also out on the market and are hailed as the successor of the DVD disk. Another standard that competes for the same market is HD-DVD which was ousted or rather thrown out when retail stores selling video re-stocked their shelves with Blu-ray disks ending the competition silently. The high data density feature of the technology is its biggest strength and they are slowly getting into homes slowly (they are still quite expensive).
