Kurzbeschreibung
Explains basic and detailed DVD technology, now updated to include recordable DVDs.
Synopsis
U.S DVD sales will top $8.1 billion in 2002, an increase of over 50 per cent, according to Adams Media Research. DVD sales this year surpassed video, even though only 30 per cent of households have DVD players (compared to 90 per cent for VCRs). In August 2002, the "New York Times" dubbed DVD "the most successful home entertainment device in history! a true pop-culture phenomenon." "DVD Demystified" has served as DVD's bible since the format first shipped in 1997. Demystifying not only basic technology issues but detailing production and authoring processes, making sense out of the plethora of battling video, audio, and data formats, and clearly explaining how DVD standards and specs dovetail or clash with related digital media standards, this book has not only become DVD's standard reference, but also required reading for DVD enthusiasts who wanting to peer behind the scenes and figure out how to get the most from their technology.Since then, Jim Taylor has become DVD's most visible guru, now President of the DVD Association, author of the internet DVD FAQ, and profiled by "E!Online" and "DVD Report".This third edition will be almost completely rewritten to cover the major technology, format, and standard changes of the past three years, and will once again include a DVD designed to show the extreme limits of performance of this dynamic technology.

Der Klassiker schlecht hin. Auch wenn ich hier Beispiele und gestalterische Anregungen schmerzlich vermisse bleibt es das erste und wirklich einzige Begleitbuch zum Thema. Auch wenn es nicht immer Freude bereitet, sich durch die Bleiwüste an Text durchzuarbeitet. Ohne dieses Buch wäre mir Vieles nicht geglückt.

Definitive guide for DVD authors
7. April 2006
Format:Taschenbuch
I needed to learn about creating a DVD, and most of the recommendations that I got steered me towards DVD Demystified by Jim Taylor. The book, and accompanying DVD, do exactly that - it demystifies the DVD media.
I enjoyed the review of the history of DVD, including the interesting machinations that moved the standard along and continues to scare the entertainment producers. The section gave valuable information without diving into the technical details too quickly.
After that, the author gets technical enough so that a novice can learn about the requirements. Everything from information for the home set-top box buyer to material preparation, standards (such as they are), file formats and clear explanations of the terms used in DVD and the programs with which you create them are all there. While the book doesn't give hardware or software recommendations, I actually think this is a plus. The field is changing so rapidly that such a book would be useless in short order.
To me, two of the best chapters of the book are those on DVD myths and the accompanying chapter "What is Wrong with DVD?". It both gives you an idea of what improvements could be coming to this technology in the future, plus if you need to convince your boss to transition to this technology, it breaks down the misconceptions about DVD in easy to understand language that can be easily converted into a presentation that even Dilbert's boss could understand.
The DVD has some program demos and some odds and ends that I couldn't get very excited about. There is also a website associated with the book that is updated monthly and is a terrific resource. Since Amazon throws out reviews with web addresses in them, suffice it to say that you need to type "dvddemystified" into Google and look at the first address listed.
The only real disappointment I had with DVD Demystified is that the scripting language of the media is not explored. Anything that I have learned about scripting has come from the authoring program I am working with, but I would like to have another reference to fall back on.
Thus, if you need to move towards delivery of DVD products, I do recommend you read this book.

Works for me!

Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Taylor's been the man for DVD sooo many years now and this latest revision is the first I've purchased. The depth of detail and fullness of the technical specification information is fantastic and what one would hope from a classic-staying-fresh.
I was only after a relatively narrow batch of information, and this certainly worked for me on that. Beyond that, it certainly tempts me to learn more about DVD authoring and what the formats are capable of (inc. Blu-Ray/HD DVD).
From a money point of view, "DVD Demystified" has always been a good value and still is.

An extraordinary book
16. Januar 2007
Format:Taschenbuch
The 5-stars rating is probably reductive for the third Dvd Demystified edition. It is the most complete work about the amazing dvd technology,
its history, the production processes and its future (or should i say: actual?) developments. For video technicians, dvd authors, graphics designers and for those who love to get a deeper knowledge about dvd world DVD demystified is like the Bible, a must-have opera which the included dvd (with examples of all the contents allowed by dvd specs) has an enormous value by itself. Purchase it with no fear: it really keeps the promises it makes.
