Types of Discs Your HD DVD player will Play

HD DVD video discs – because this is a new format, disc compatibility issues are possible. If you experi- ence a disc compatibility problem, contact RCA Customer Support.

Note: Some content providers may use an Image Constraint Token (ICT) for HD DVD movie titles played through an analog connection. An ICT constrains the picture to half the resolution of a full HD picture. If an ICT is used, the content provider is required to put a warning label on the disc to let consumers know of the limitation.
