DVD+R - a write-once optical recording system for video and data applications

This paper discusses the Digital Versatile Disc plus Recordable (DVD+R) system, which can create non-erasable DVD discs perfectly compatible with the installed based of players and computer drives. The physical and logical formats of DVD+R media are very similar to those of the Digital Versatile Disc plus ReWritable (DVD+RW). It is for this reason that the users of DVD+RW data drives and video recorders can easily upgrade their equipment by software means. The DVD+R systems operate with an increased accuracy of linking data in multisession mode, which makes them suitable for appending video files when building large archives.
