What is a R1 Hybrid DVD? Are there any differences btw regular dvd and the hybrid?

MY ANIME
hybrid dvd is what they call an anime dvd that has both english and japanese audio tracks... in other words, nothing special
OHHHhhhh.....thanks JJ.
Initially I thought that there're some sort of differences between regular dvd and hybrid. Heheh...just like you get hybrid cars. Big Grin
In more general terms a hybrid DVD is any disc that contains two sets of information.

So if you have a DVD with a movie that also has DVD-ROM content then that is, basically, a hybrid DVD. Those DVD-Audio albums that can be played in both standalones and dedicated DVD-Audio players can be called hybrid. A CD-ROM containing both PC and Mac software...you get the idea. Smile

As JJ said, nothing special, but technically there is a difference.
thanks for the information. I got couple of R1 box sets and they were labelled as (Hyb) under the description. That's why I was kind of unsure. Big Grin
nice one i wondered why the used hybrid but never bothered to find out why!
