If you cannot play back a disc which bears one of the marks above, check the following notes.

*1: This unit conforms to the NTSC color system. Discs recorded in other color systems such as PAL cannot be played back.

*2: Certain DVD discs do not operate as described in this manual due to the intentions of the disc’s producers.

*3: Scratched or stained discs may not be played back.

*4: Some discs cannot be played back because of incompatible recording conditions, characteristics of the recorder or special properties of discs.

*5: You can play back discs which bear the marks above. If you use nonstandardized discs, this unit may not play them back. Even if they are played back, the sound or video quality will be compromised.

*6: Only the discs recorded in the video format and finalized can be played back.

Unfinalized discs cannot be played back. Depending on the recording status of a disc, the disc may not be played back at all or normally (the picture or sound may be distorted, etc.).

*7: If there is too much recordable space left on a disc (the used portion is less than 2 3/16 inches (55mm) across), it may not be played back properly.

*8: Do not glue paper or put stickers on to the disc. These may damage the disc, and the unit may not read it correctly.

*9: This unit conforms to ver.1.1 and ver.2.0 of Video CD standard, with PBC function. Ver.1.1 (without PBC function): You can enjoy playback picture as well as music CD.

Ver.2.0 (with PBC function): While using a Video CD with PBC function, “Pbc” appears on the screen and the display.

NOTE: When playing back Video CDs with PBC function, some operations (e.g., track search and repeat tracks) cannot be performed. Cancel PBC function temporarily to perform those operations (refer to page 17).

*10: This player cannot play back the disc contents protected by Windows Media Digital Rights Management (DRM).

What is PBC? “PBC” stands for Playback Control.

You can play back interactive software using menu screens. Refer to instructions in the Video CD.
