To avoid inconveniences, please check the playback compatibility of your self-recorded disc before you purchase this BD-unit.

You may not be able to play some still images you have processed (rotated or saved by overwriting other images you have imported from the Internet or e-mail).

You may experience one or more of the following symptoms when playing files.

It may take some time to play files depending on the number of folders, number of files and volume of data involved.

EXIF information will not be displayed. EXIF stands for Exchangeable Image File Format, and is a standard for storing interchange information in image files, especially those using JPEG compression. (Refer to http://exif.org for more information.)

*3 About the MP3 file format

MP3 files are audio data compressed in the MPEG1/2 Audio layer-3 file format. “MP3 files” have “.mp3” as extensions. (Some files that have “.mp3” extensions or files that have not been recorded in MP3 format will produce noise or cannot be played.)

Playing the MP3 file format

The MP3 files are not played in the order they were recorded.

It is recommended to record data at a lower speed as data recorded at a fast speed can produce noise and may not be able to be played.

The more folders there are, the longer the reading time.

Depending on the folder tree, reading MP3 files can take time.

The playing time may not be correctly displayed during MP3 file playback.

The following files cannot be played on this unit.

When both Audio CD [CD-DA] format and JPEG/MP3 file formats are recorded on a disc. (The disc is recognised to be an Audio CD [CD-DA] only tracks in Audio CD [CD-DA] format are played back.)

Multi-session discs cannot be played.

About the DivX+HD (H.264/MKV) file format

DivX playback may not be available depending on the DivX content and file.
