DivX

A DATA CD or DATA DVD that the
system can play
Playback of a DATA CD (CD-ROM/CD-R/CD-
RW) or DATA DVD (DVD-ROM/DVD-R/
DVD-RW/DVD+R/DVD+RW) on this system
is subject to certain conditions:
With a DATA CD/DATA DVD that contains
DivX video files in addition to MP3 audio
tracks or JPEG image files, the system plays
only the DivX video files.
However, this system only plays a DATA CD of
format ISO 9660 Level 1/Level 2 or Joliet, and a
DATA DVD of Universal Disk Format (UDF).
Refer to the operating instructions supplied with
the disc drives and the recording software (not
supplied) for details on the recording format.
About playback order of data on a
DATA CD or DATA DVD
Note that the playback order may not be
applicable, depending on the software used for
creating the DivX video file, or if there are more
than 200 folders and 150 DivX video files in
each folder.
Note
• The system may not be able to play some DATA
CDs/DATA DVDs created in the Packet Write
format.
DivX video files that the system
can play
The system can play data that is recorded in
DivX format, and which has the extension
“.AVI,” or “.DIVX.” The system will not play
files with the extension “.AVI” or “.DIVX” if
they do not contain a DivX video.

• For details about playable MP3 audio tracks or JPEG
image files on a DATA CD or DATA DVD, see
“Playable Discs” (page 5).
Note
• The system may not play a DivX video file when the
file has been combined from two or more DivX video
files.
The system cannot play a DivX video file of size
more than 720 (width) × 576 (height) or 2GB.
• Depending on the DivX video file, sound may skip or
not match the pictures on the TV screen.
The system cannot play some DivX video files that
are longer than 3 hours.
Depending on the DivX video file, the picture may
pause or be unclear. In which case, it is recommended
that you create the file at a lower bit rate. If the sound
is still noisy, MP3 is the recommended audio format.
Note, however, this system does not conform to
WMA (Windows Media Audio) format for playing
DivX files.
Because of the compression technology used for
DivX video files, it may take some time after you
