Can You Play a Cd on a Dvd Player
Simply to add a bear on of sanity to this thread.....
The reason you cannot play a DVD in a CD player is downwardly to the difference in data capacity betwixt the two. A CD can store effectually 700MB and a DVD 4.7GB, give or take a bit.
Both disks apply very like construction in that the ones and zeros in the digital data are stored as pits in the reflective layer of the disk. Because both disks are the same size y'all tin encounter that to store so much more data on a DVD the pits will be very much smaller than on a CD. They are besides stored in a ring formation spanning out from the center of the deejay. For the aforementioned reason a DVD has the ring blueprint more than tightly packed than a CD.
Then in a DVD the light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation has to focus into a much smaller dot on the surface of the disk. Also the motor that drives the laser across the deejay as it plays has to step in smaller increments than a CD.
So if you put a DVD in a CD thespian the light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation will focus on a number of pits rather than just 1. Besides it cannot step beyond the surface of the disk correctly to track the pits accurately. So all it sees is a complete mush that makes no sense to it.
And that is without talking nigh the different way the audio is stored on a DVD. Fifty-fifty if a CD player could make sense of the data stream it most likely would not be able to extract the sound data nor turn information technology into a recognisable sound.
Oh and cooking toast with Blu-Ray gives a whole new twist to that famous Tomorrows World demo of this new fangled CD technology. You lot know the one where the presenter spread jam on the deejay to prove the CD could yet play it.
