DVD-Video Player
Most DVD-audio discs are compatible with DVD-Video players. To provide compatibility, most DVD-Audio discs are including Dolby
Digital (some also include DTS) audio tracks that satisfy the DVD-Video specification. These tracks are playable on DVD-Video
players. A DVD album, which includes these features, will carry the DVD-Audio and DVD-Video logo.
However, a DVD-Video player will not recognize and play the ultra-high fidelity PCM and MLP encoded audio tracks on a
DVD-Audio disk. To play these tracks, a DVD player is required that meets the DVD-Audio specification. These players can be
identified by the DVD-Audio logo.
CD Player
Unfortunately, a DVD-Audio disc is NOT playable on a CD player.
PC
At present PC's do not support the DVD-Audio standard. Therefore, a PC player will not recognize and play the ultra-high fidelity
PCM and MLP encoded audio tracks on a DVD-Audio disk. However, most PC's can recognize and play DVD-Video compatible
material on a DVD-Audio disc.
