High quality images on the disc label side:
Labelflash utilizes the existing recording laser in DVD-writers to burn high contrast and high resolution images by changing the blue dye color to colorless. Optimal image data processing is carried out in accordance with the burning time, and pictures of high-resolution and high contrast can be burned.  Labelflash utilizes a newly developed, pick up and rotation control, and high-speed signal processing system of image data. The special Labelflash disc structure realizes the optimal focusing setting. Stable burning of pictures can be completed in as little as 5 minutes.

Long-lasting, titles and pictures:
The picture-burning layer is located 0.6mm deep into the media and protected by a polycarbonate layer. Images last longer since they cannot be touched directly.

Labelflash disc features:

• High-quality images can be burned on the entire labeling surface.
• With a Labelflash-compliant DVD drive, you can burn a high contrast and resolution image by changing the blue dye color to colorless and shading it using the same laser used for data recording.
• The dye used has high durability and light-resistance, making it ideal for long-term storage.
• Unrivaled compatibility with the drive: The writing laser utilizes our independently developed “OXOLIFE” dye coating.
• Labelflash DVD discs utilize both photo and organic synthesis technology thorough our independently developed organic dye, “OXOLIFE.” This unique dye offers superb temperature/moisture protection and light-resistance, making it ideal for highly-sensitive, high-precision writing and long-term storage.

How can I identify which HDMI products support a specific feature, such as DVD Audio or Deep Color?
The key for consumers to remember is that HDMI has consistently enabled a variety of the most innovative new technologies (whether they are DVD Audio, SACD, 1080p/60, etc.). However, in many cases, it is up to each manufacturer to choose which features to implement in any given product. The manufacturer can choose the mix of features that makes sense for its customers and products. So, customers must choose devices that have the features that they want (instead of focusing on which version of HDMI is implemented by the device.). Consumers interested in confirming whether a particular consumer electronics product supports DVD-Audio or any other feature over HDMI are urged to review users’ manuals and product reviews, or check with manufacturers directly.

What Is Firmware Upgradeable?
Many of today's electronics product are designed for today's standards.  Yet like personal computers, they have advanced capabilities that will let them be upgraded for use with new technologies and standards.  The ability to upgrade the firmware of an electronics product allows you to extend the useful lifespan of the device you purchase, and be able to expect support for many (if not all) of the emerging new standards.

What is the difference between Active HDMI and Passive HDMI?
There is no active or passive HDMI in the HDMI specification. These terms apply to cables. Active cables have built-in electronics to enable long cable runs, and typically these cables require a power supply. These cables use active electronics to help push the signal farther than typical passive cables.
