I'll have to check out those links...

In other news, I just ordered my NEC ND-3520A from NewEgg. I'm looking forward to burning more DVDs much faster (and DLs as well. )

Multiple language subtitling

DVD-Video discs store subtitles as separately recorded sub pictures and can contain up to 32 separate channels of subtitles. These can be different language versions of the dialogue or other information, such as song lyrics. The user can select which, if any, subtitles are to he displayed. Subtitles are normally selected by the user when watching foreign language movies. However the disc can also 'force' subtitling on. For example in a scene with a French speaker in an English dialogue movie, English subtitles can be automatically displayed even if the subtitle option has not been selected by the user.

Because each character is stored on the DVD-Video disc as a small picture, subtitle characters can include any form of lettering or be used to display small logos or other non-text pictures.
