About Track Limits in a DVD
A DVD can have a combination of up to 99 tracks, stories, and slideshows. Each track can
contain up to:
• 9 video streams, used as angles or alternate video
• 8 audio streams for different soundtracks
• 32 subtitle streams for alternate text, alternate languages, or buttons over video
• 99 chapter markers used primarily to define points in the track that can be jumped to
• 255 cell markers used for a variety of purposes, such as button highlights and
DVD@CCESS (this includes chapter markers, which are also cell markers)
• 98 stories (assuming there are no other tracks or slideshows), each defining an alternate
track playback by treating each chapter marker as a clip that can be moved or skipped
as needed
