Regional code | Using progressive scan |
Your recorder has a regional code printed on the back of the case. Your recorder can play only DVDs labeled with the same regional code or ALL.
Note | • Most DVDs have a globe with one or |
| more numbers in it clearly visible on |
| the cover. This number must match |
| your recorder’s regional code or the |
| DVD cannot play. |
•If you try to play a DVD with a different regional code from the recorder, the message “Check Regional Code” appears on the TV screen.
Consumers should note that not all high definition televisions are fully compatible with this recorder and may cause artifacts to be displayed in the picture.
In case of progressive scan picture problems, we recommend that you switch the connection to the standard definition output. If there are questions regarding your television’s compatibility with this DVD recorder, contact our customer service center.
