Dual layer DVD video discs

When you play a dual layer disc, time lag may occur between the end of the 1st layer and the beginning of the 2nd layer, and the picture may freeze and the sound may stop for a few seconds. This symptom is common to the dual layer discs and it is not the sign of unit trouble.

Region number (Regional restriction number)

DVD players and DVD video discs each have an assigned region number, and if these numbers do not match, a disc cannot be played. This unit cannot play discs other than those with a region number of “2” or “ALL”.

Notes:

¡Discs with a region number of “ALL” are not regionally restricted and can be played in DVD players of all region numbers.

¡Discs with no displayed region number correspond one of the following.

1.Discs bearing a non-displayed region number but playable only on DVD players with the same region number

2.Discs not regionally restricted and playable on DVD players of all region numbers.

¡This unit cannot play discs recorded in TV signal formats other than PAL or NTSC, even if their region number is “2” or “ALL”.

PBC (Playback Control)-Compatible Video CDs

This unit is compatible with PBC-compatible video CDs.

In addition to typical audio and motion picture play, PBC-compatible video CDs use PBC menus recorded on the disc to allow dialog-based play.

This manual refers to play using PBC menus as “PBC playback”. zSee page 13, “Using the PBC (Playback Control) Function”.

TV signal format switch (NTSC/PAL)

This unit has a TV signal format switch on its bottom. The switch is set to “PAL” when you purchase the unit. If you want to play a disc recorded in NTSC format, change the position of the switch to “NTSC”.

* Use a ballpoint pen or similar fine-tipped implement

to change the position of the switch.
