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 characteristics, the disc is damaged or dirty, the disc contains only a small amount of data. Discs that contain different types of files, JPEG, MP3, WMA, DivX, and so on, are not supported. See the manual sup- plied with your disc burner for more information. Condensa- tion or dirt on the optical pickup lens can also affect playback.

*3 North American model does not support DivX format.

About this Manual

This manual explains how to use all of the DV-SP506’s functions. Although the DVD standard offers many spe- cial features, not all discs use them all, so depending on the disc being played, the DV-SP506 may not respond to certain functions. See your disc’s sleeve notes for sup- ported features.

When you attempt to use a DVD feature that is not available, this logo may appear onscreen, indicating that the feature is not supported by the current disc or by the DV-SP506.
