Chapter 1205: HD DVD

Today, when I saw this digital camera, Feng Yu suddenly thought that this digital camera of the past life has become a digital video camera, that is, it can take photos and shoot video clips.
Now, there is already a digital video camera. Even in 1998, Muni launched the first true digital video camera, but the storage device at that time was still a 3.5-inch floppy disk.
In other words, the digital video camera can only shoot short films. If it is longer, the capacity will not be enough. Later, there was a digital camera with a vcd disc as a storage device, and now dvd is used as a storage device, after several generations of development.
However, Feng Yu is very clear that in the future, either using flash memory as a storage device or using a hard disk as a storage device, such a DVD will be quickly eliminated.
In the past life, it seems that companies such as Muni and Dong have jointly developed the dv standard and the hdv standard, that is, the high-definition digital video standard. Then they earned a large sum of money by relying on patent authorization and technical authorization.
At that time, the domestic dvs were flooded with domestic prices, and the prices were not too expensive, and the use of them was the technology of Muni. In this way, it has blocked the pace of domestic manufacturers' technology research and development, so that they can only continue to purchase new technologies of companies such as Muni, thus monopolizing upstream resources by companies such as Muni.
Feng Yu held his chin, and now only the dv standard, then do you want to get the hdv standard first?
If this is the case, can it stop the development of the island enterprises for a long time? Taking a step back, you can also let them start confronting themselves and thus abandon their monopoly position.
This should be discussed with Fei Lipu, Jiang Wanmeng, Xu Lihua, etc. Even if the investment is very high, it must be done. This future profit is not a small amount.
Besides, this technology can be applied to mobile phones. In the future, mainstream mobile phones can shoot video. If the wind and rain mobile phone is the first to launch a mobile phone that shoots video, then the words of the stormy mobile phone leading the trend will no longer be shaken!
However, the immediate priority is to upgrade the dvd format.
Wind and rain electronically dominated the dvd forum, developing hddvd, which is a high-definition dvd format. Of course, this is also the product of the high-definition TV.
At the beginning, the TV was not so clear, and the dvd that you developed HD was also a no-brainer.
But now that the TV has HD, the gap between the HD dvd and the normal dvd can be seen with the naked eye. If possible, who does not like watching movies is more clear?
As for what you said HD DVD discs will be more expensive? That is not a problem at all. Those who bought a high-definition TV set are not bad for themselves!
And Feng Yu also learned that the dvd alliance that Muni and others joined, also began to lead the development of Blu-ray dvd, also high-definition dvd, but the standards of both sides are different again.
The island companies that were originally in the dvd forum, such as His Majesty, JVC, Hitachi, and Mitsubishi, have quit the dvd forum and turned into the dvd alliance because they have been plagued with other factors.
They believe that their treatment in the dvd forum is unfair, mainly because the remaining representative seats of the company have expired. Other companies in the island country have not approved the representative once again. Instead, they are small companies in China, successfully elected, and the shady is too tm. Serious!
And they have completely forgotten that the technology they acquired in the dvd forum turned around and hooked up with companies such as Muni, to help the dvd alliance in exchange for other interests.
Otherwise, the dvd forum has more powerful strength, no matter in technology, capital or number of members, it is far ahead, and the dvd alliance has long since conceded.
This Blu-ray dvd alliance will dominate the development and promotion of the Blu-ray dvd standard format, and the company will join the company without hesitation.
This kind of behavior behind the knife, Feng Yu has long expected. Fortunately, the hddvd forum, the main companies are still in, such as Philips, Thomson, Tata, four stars, Mingji and other companies.
In this case, in addition to some second- and third-line consumer electronics companies in the island countries and Europe and the United States, other companies are still on the dvd forum.
However, the island countries have always been one of the best in the world of electronic consumer goods, and their energy should not be underestimated.
Blu-ray dvd and hddvd still have a lot in common, such as the original 120-mm diameter optical disc as the storage medium, and both use 405 nm blue laser beam for reading and writing operations (dvd is 650 nm wavelength Red light read and write operations, cd is 780 nm wavelength), just like the standard dispute between dvd forum and dvd alliance, we have developed different format standards.
Feng Yu promoted the hddvd, this product has a great advantage, that is, its manufacturing process, the same as the traditional dvd, that is, the manufacturer does not need to replace the equipment, just need to debug it.
As for the capacity, the single-layer data of hddvd is 15g, and the single-layer data of the Blu-ray dvd that they promote can reach 25g. It seems that their Blu-ray dvd storage is larger and should be more popular.
It is a pity that they do not understand that this high-definition dvd is destined to be a transitional product, because the development of flash memory applications is getting faster and faster.
That's right, in theory, dvd can burn sixteen layers, then Feng Yu's hddvd peak capacity is only 180g, and that their blue light dvd peak capacity can reach 400g.
Let's not say that this is just the theoretical capacity. At present, the mainstream equipment, that is, the ability to burn double layers, can burn three layers less. More than four floors, no at all!
Muni's Blu-ray dvd format itself is different from the traditional way of burning. If you want to update the product line, then naturally, they will increase their manufacturing costs.
And hddvd can win at a low price in the early stage. After all, a two-hour HD movie will not exceed 15g. Even with the Titanic, double-layer data is enough, and the device does not need to be upgraded.
And Muni believes that their Blu-ray dvd can also be used as a commercial data storage device to provide server data backup. Let's not say that most people use mobile hard disk to store, and mobile hard disk is the most criticized, that is, vulnerable. But is the Blu-ray dvd disc not easy to damage?
In the future, most of these commercial data storage devices use flash memory!
After the development of this Blu-ray dvd, the capacity of the flash memory should exceed 128g. When there is a more stable and compact flash drive, what do you say people will choose?
Feng Yu promoted this hddvd on the one hand for profit, on the other hand, it dragged the island enterprises into the technical competition of high-definition discs, so that they had no energy and focused on the development of flash technology.
After two years, it is the time they regret it!
