The disc can store both HD and SD video has a one-side readout, triple layer structure of an outer 25 GB Blu-ray disc (BD) and an inner 8.5 GB DVD dual layer.
A disc can be reproduced in high-definition BD video quality on a large home theatre system or play back the disc at SD DVD video on a smaller TV set or computer.
