\\

The player may not play certain CD-RW/-R and DVD-R because of the disc type or recording conditions.

\\

If a DVD-RW/-R has not been recorded properly in DVD video format, it will not be playable.

\\

Your player will not play content that has been recorded on a DVD-R at a bit-rate that exceeds 10 Mbps.

\\

Your player will not play content that has been recorded on a BD-R or USB device at a bitrate that exceeds 25

 

Mbps.

 

 

\\

Playback may not work for some types of discs, or when you use specific functions, such as angle change and

 

aspect ratio adjustment. Information about the discs is written in detail on the disc box. Please refer to this if

 

necessary.

 

 

\\

When you play a BD-J title, loading may take longer than a normal title or some functions may perform slowly.

\\ This player may not respond to all operating commands because some Blu-ray Discs, DVDs, and CDs allow specific or limited operation and provide only certain features during playback.

Please note that this is not a defect in the player.

\\ Samsung cannot guarantee that this player will play every disc bearing the Blu-ray Disc, DVD or CD logo because disc formats evolve, and problems and errors may occur during the creation of Blu-ray Disc, DVD, and CD software and/or the manufacture of discs.

\\ Please contact the SAMSUNG Customer Care Center at 1-800-726-7864 if you have questions or encounter difficulty when playing Blu-ray Disc, DVD, or CD in this player. Also, refer to rest of this user manual for additional information on playback restrictions.

\\ Some commercial discs and DVDs purchased outside your region may not play on this player.
