DVD-R Last modified: Thursday, February 27, 2003
Short for Short for DVD-Recordable, a recordable DVD format similar to CD-R. A DVD-R can only record data once and then the data becomes permanent on the disc. The disc can not be recorded onto a second time. There also are two additional standards for DVD-R disks: DVD-RG for general use, and DVD-RA for authoring, which is used for mastering DVD video or data and is not typically available to the general public. DVD-R, DVD-RW and DVD-RAM are supported by Panasonic, Toshiba, Apple Computer, Hitachi, NEC, Pioneer, Samsung and Sharp. These formats are also supported by the DVD Forum. For comparison and contrast, see DVD, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW, and DVD-RAM. Also see DVD Formats Explained in the Did You Know . . . ? section of Webopedia.
