11.0 Application on Authoring Grade DVD-R Media

The Buffer Zone 1 within Lead-in of the Authoring Grade DVD-R disc will contain the DDVID.DAT. Buffer Zone 1 ranges from Physical Block Address 02F020 (hex) to 02F1FF (hex). The contents of the Buffer Zone 1 will be broken up as indicated in Figure 10.1

An example of the contents of the DDVID.DAT file would be as follows:
