About discs
This system has been designed to play back the following discs:
DVD VIDEO, Video CD (VCD), Super Video CD (SVCD), Audio
CD (CD), CD-R and CD-RW.
• This system accommodates the NTSC system, and also can play
discs recorded with PAL system.
• This system can also play finalized DVD-R/-RWs recorded in
DVD VIDEO format. However, some discs may not be played
because of their disc characteristics or recording conditions.
Discs you can play:
• The following discs cannot be played back:
CD-I (CD-I Ready), Photo CD, SACD, etc.
Playing back these discs will generate noise and damage the
speakers.
• The Non-DVD side of a “DualDisc” does not comply with the
“Compact Disc Digital Audio” standard. Therefore, the use of
Non-DVD side of a DualDisc on this product may not be
recommended.
• On some DVD VIDEOs, VCDs or SVCDs, their actual
operation may be different from what is explained in this
manual. This is due to the disc programming and disc
structure, not a malfunction of this system.

Region code of DVD VIDEO
DVD VIDEO players and DVD VIDEO discs have their own
Region Code numbers. This system can play back DVD VIDEO
discs whose Region Code numbers include “1.”
• Example of playable DVD:
If a DVD with an improper Region Code number is loaded,
“REGION CODE ERROR!” appears on the TV screen and
playback cannot start.
Notes on DVD-R, DVD-RW and DVD-RAM
• This system can also play finalized DVD-Rs or DVD-RWs
recorded in DVD VIDEO format and DVD-RWs or DVD-RAMs
recorded in DVD VR format.
• This system can also play DVD-Rs or DVD-RWs if MP3 and
JPEG files are recorded on them with UDF Bridge format.
This system does not support “multi-border” disc.
Notes on CD-R and CD-RW
• This system can also play CD-Rs or CD-RWs if MP3 and JPEG
files are recorded on them with ISO 9660 format.
• This system supports “multi-session” discs (up to 20 sessions).
• This system cannot play “packet write” discs.
Some discs may not be played back because of their disc
characteristics, recording conditions, or damage or stain on them.
For all playable files
• The system can only recognize and play files with one of the
following extensions, which can be in any combination of upper
and lower case;
MP3: “.MP3”, “.mp3”
JPEG: “.JPG”, “.JPEG”, “.jpg”, “.jpeg”
• The system recognizes up to 150 tracks (files) per group, 99
groups per disc, and the total number of the tracks (files) that the
system can play is 4 000.
• Some files may not be played back normally because of their disc
characteristics or recording conditions.
• MP3/JPEG discs require a longer readout time. (It differs due to
the complexity of the directory/file configuration.)
• If different kinds of the file are mixed on a disc, set the FILE
TYPE setting in the PICTURE menu to the appropriate setting
for the data to be read (“AUDIO” or “STILL PICTURE”). (See
page 29.)
Notes on MP3 files
• Tag information (album name, artist name, and track name) can
be shown on the TV. (See page 21.)
• The system can play back the MP3 files recorded at 32 kbps to
320 kbps as a bit rate, and at 16 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 24 kHz, 32 kHz,
44.1 kHz and 48 kHz as a sampling frequency.
• We recommend to record each piece of material (song) at a
sample rate of 44.1 kHz and at a data transfer rate of 128 kbps.
Notes on JPEG files
• We recommend to record a file at 640 x 480 resolution. (If a file
has been recorded at a resolution of more than 640 x 480, it will
take a longer time to be displayed.)
• This system can only play baseline JPEG files.
