A “prohibited icon” may appear at the top-right corner on the TV screen during operation, warning that a prohibited operation has been encountered by the DVD player or the disc.

With DVDs that use some titles for playback program signals, playback may start from the second title, or it may skip these titles.

During the playback of two layered disc, pictures may stop for a moment. This happens when the 1st layer switches to the 2nd layer. This is not a malfunction.

The operation may vary when you play back DVDs with disc menu. Refer to the manual accompanying the disc for details.
