The producer of the disc can control how discs are played. So you may not always be able to control play as described in these operating instructions. Read the disc’s instructions carefully.

Operation and sound quality of CDs that do not conform to CD-DA specifications (copy control CDs, etc.) cannot be guaranteed.

* Close the session after recording. Play may be impossible on some discs due to the condition of the recording.

Regarding DVD-Audio

Some multi-channel DVD-Audio will prevent down-mixing (Ô page 45) of all or part of their contents if this is the manufacturer’s intention. Tracks that are prevented from being down-mixed will not play properly on this unit (e.g. audio is played from the front two channels only). Refer to the disc’s jacket for more information.

Note about using a DualDisc

The digital audio content side of a DualDisc does not meet the technical specifications of the Compact Disc Digital Audio (CD-DA) format so play may not be possible.
