Disc Description Protocol
Disc Description Protocol (DDP) is a format for specifying the content of optical discs, including CDs and DVDs.
DDP is commonly used for delivery of disc premasters for duplication. DDP is a proprietary format and is the property of DCA. The file format specification is not freely available.
The DDP must contain 4 parts:[1]
- Audio image(s) (.DAT file(s))
- DDP Identifier (DDPID)
- DDP Stream descriptor (DDPMS)
- Subcode descriptor (PQDESCR)
An optional text file can also be included, this will contain the track titles and timings.
