*1. The North American model will only play Region 1, NTSC DVD-Video discs. The Australian model will only play Region 4, PAL DVD-Video discs, although it can be set to AUTO, in which case it will also play Region 4 NTSC DVD-Video discs (see page 39).

*2. Some audio CDs feature copy protection that doesn’t conform to the official CD standard. Since these are nonstandard discs, they may not play properly in the DV-CP701.

*3. The DV-CP701 supports CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded in Video CD format, audio CD format, or ISO9660 Level 2 format with MP3, WMA, and JPEG files. It also supports DVD-R and DVD-RW discs recorded in DVD-Video format. However, some CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, and DVD-RW discs may not work properly for any of the following reasons: incomplete disc finalization, disc burner characteristics, disc character- istics, the disc is damaged or dirty. See the manual supplied with your disc burner for more information. Condensation or dirt on the optical pickup lens can also affect playback.

If you attempt to play a disc intended for another region, the message “Cannot play discs with this region code” appears onscreen.

Function Support

The following icons are used throughout this manual to indicate which functions can be used with the various disc formats and file types.

Unsupported DVD Features

The DVD standard offers many special features,

including multiple soundtracks, subtitles, camera angles, and so on. However, not all discs employ all of

these features. When you attempt to use a feature that is not used by the current disc, for example, you press the remote control- ler’s [AUDIO] button while playing a disc with only one soundtrack, this icon will appear onscreen, indicating that the feature is not supported by the current disc.

Similarly, if a disc uses features that are not supported by the DV-CP701, for example, special interactive menu functions, this icon will appear onscreen, indicat- ing that the feature is not supported by the DV-CP701.
