The 8cm mini DVD is an evolutionary new product. The DVD (Digital Versatile Disc) is the latest generation of optical media and now it is available in a miniature version. The technology behind the 8cm mini DVD is exactly the same as that of the standard 12cm DVD, the two key differences being size and capacity. At nearly half the physical size of a standard CD these mini DVD’s have over twice the data capacity, and operating exactly like its 12cm DVD counterpart, the mini DVD is still open to the same variety of applications. These 8cm DVD discs make a striking alternative for marketing promotions, DVD video showreels, giveaways or any means of promotion that would benefit from a high visual impact and novelty factor - especially when being used for mailouts where both weight and size also become a factor. These mini DVDs will work in any horizontal DVD tray drive as they have a inner section moulded into the caddy to hold these smaller discs. For a comprehensive guide to our DVD replication and DVD duplication process see the DVD technical overview section. Mini DVD Duplication is the process of burning data onto recordable mini DVD-R media and is typically used for smaller runs of up to 1000 units. Disc Factory offer a mini DVD duplication service for the single sided single layer 1.4GB mini DVD-R. Disc Factory can save you time and effort with our professional in-house mini DVD-R duplication equipment. Capable of duplicating 1000’s of discs day and night to ensure that you’ll never miss your deadline. Using premium A-grade mini DVD discs, pre-scanning all master discs, performing 100% bit for bit data verification and offering full face colour disc printing Disc Factory is proud to guarantee the highest compatibility and most professionally finished discs possible. 8cm Mini DVD Replication differs to that of Duplicated mini DVD-Rs. It involves the process of stamping data into an injection moulded disc using a glass master. This is a more durable and professional finish than the mini DVD duplication process and is best suited to quantities of 1000 upwards. Replicated 80mm mini DVDs come in 2 data sizes… single sided, single layer mini DVD (1.4GB) single sided, dual layer mini DVD (2.9GB) Disc Factory works with all DVD formats including DVD-Video, DVD-Audio and DVD-ROM. All of these DVD formats are also available for the mini DVD and we can also implement the same DVD copy protection technologies we offer for our standard sized DVD. Disc Factory offers both silkscreen and offset / litho printing for replicated mini DVD discs. For more information see the DVD Printing section. Disc Factory also offers a vast quantity of mini DVD packaging options from simple PVC wallets and custom printed card wallets to completely bespoke packaging solutions.
