Playback of HD DVD video discs

HD DVD video discs are high-density, high-capacity discs.

7The HD DVD disc standard has been approved by the DVD forum.

7HD DVD (single layer): 15 GB

HD DVD (dual layer): Maximum capacity of 30 GB A single layer single sided disc (15 GB) has capacity of about 8 hours in 1125 line high definition picture; about 48 hours in 525 line standard definition picture (depending on bitrate of pre-recorded contents).

*1GB means 1,000,000,000 bytes.

7HD DVD Twin Format Discs have both HD DVD and DVD layers on one side. HD DVD Combination DVD Discs have HD DVD material on one side and standard DVD material on the other side. Because both disc types are new, such discs may not operate properly in this player.

7To view high-definition picture in HD DVD discs, a 60 Hz compatible HDTV display (720p, 1080i, 1080p) is required.

7Connect an HDTV set to the COMPONENT OUTPUT jacks or the HDMI OUTPUT jack on this player.

7Some discs may require use of HDMI OUTPUT for viewing of high resolution material.

7Playback of CD-RW and CD-R (Audio CD of CD-DA format only; playback of MP3, WMA and other non-CD-DA audio formats are not supported.)

Because HD DVD is a new format, disc compatibility issues with new and existing format discs are possible. Not all discs are compatible. If you experience compatibility problems, please contact Toshiba customer service.

HD DVD discs containing high definition content at a field rate of 50Hz or a frame rate of 25Hz can not be played on this player without a firmware update. Firmware update is expected in the future.
