Hint

•DivX® is a codec (compression/decompression) that can compress images to a very small amount of data. The software can compress video data from almost any sources to the size that can be sent on the Internet without compromising visual quality of the images.

•A file with an extension of “.avi” and “.divx” is called an DivX® file. All files with the “.avi” extension are recognised as MPEG4.

•Files whose extension other than “.avi” and “.divx” will not be listed on the DivX® menu. However, unplayable groups or tracks may be displayed, depending on the recording conditions.

•Even if the file has an extension of either “.avi” and “.divx”, this unit cannot play it back if it is recorded in the format other than DivX®.

•Folders are known as Groups; files are known as tracks.

•A symbol of is shown on the top of the file name.

•A maximum of 255 folders or 999 files may be recognised in one disc.

•Up to 8 hierarchies can be recognised in one folder. Files in the 9th or deeper hierarchies cannot be played back.

•If the track extends beyond the scope of screen, a down arrow “L” appears, indicating that the user can view another part on the previous page. The current page number and the number of total pages are shown on the right of the down arrow “L”.

•The name of group and track can be displayed up to 29 characters. Unrecognisable characters will be replaced with asterisks.

•You can play back the disc recorded in multi- session.

•Playback will be paused if the File List is displayed during the playback.

•It may take a while for audio and images to be output after you inserted a disc and pressed [PLAY B].

•When playing back the files recorded in high bit rates, the images can be interrupted in some occasions.

•Although DivX® logo has been obtained for this unit, it may not be able to play back some data, depending on the characteristics, bit rates, or audio format settings, etc.

•Use the software recognised by the DivX, Inc. when you make DivX® files.

•A DivX® file whose file size exceeds 2GB cannot be played back.

•When using tools or utilities to make up DivX® files, read their instruction manual beforehand.

•Never use the MPEG4 tools when you make DivX® files. Otherwise, noise or disturbance of the picture and sound may be generated.

•If a large-sized DivX® file is selected, it may take a while to start the playback (over 20 seconds sometimes).
