In addition to the above discs, this unit can play back audio data recorded on CD Text, CD-G (CD Graphic), CD Extra and Mix- Mode CD.

The following discs cannot be played back:

DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, CD-ROM, CD-I (CD-I Ready), Photo CD, SACD, VR format DVD-RW, etc.

Playing back these discs will generate noise and damage the speakers.

This unit can also play back MP3 and JPEG (still picture) files recorded on CD-R and CD-RW. For details about MP3 and JPEG disc operations, see “MP3/JPEG Disc Playback” on pages 35 and 36.

On some DVD VIDEO, DVD AUDIO, SVCD or VCD, their actual operations may be different from what is explained in this manual. This is due to the disc programming and disc structure, but not a malfunction of this unit.

You can play back DVD-R or DVD-RW recorded with the DVD VIDEO format, but some may not be played back because of the disc characteristics or recording conditions.

About Region Code

DVD players and DVD VIDEO have their own Region Code numbers. This unit can play back only DVD VIDEO recorded with the color system of NTSC/PAL whose Region Code is “3.”

On CD-R and CD-RW

User-edited CD-R (Recordable) and CD-RW (ReWritable) can be played back only if they are already “finalized.

The unit can play back CD-R or CD-RW recorded on a personal computer if they have been recorded in the CD format or in ISO 9660 format.

Before playing back CD-R or CD-RW, read their instructions or cautions carefully.

CD-RW may require a longer readout time. It is caused by the fact that the reflectance of CD-RW is lower than for regular CD.

The unit can also play back CD-R or CD-RW if MP3 files or JPEG files are recorded on them. However, they may not be played back because of their disc characteristics, recording conditions, or damage or stain on them. Especially, the configuration and characteristics of an MP3 disc or a JPEG disc is determined by the writing (encoding) software and hardware used for recording. Therefore, due to the software and hardware used, the following symptoms may occur:

Some discs may not be played back.

Some tracks on an MP3 or JPEG disc are skipped and may not be played back normally.

Some files on a JPEG disc may be played back distortedly.
