Region code of DVDs this player can play

This player has a region code printed on the bottom of the player and will only play DVDs that are labeled with identical region codes. DVDs labeled will also be played on this player.

Depending on the DVD, the region code indication may not appear even if the DVD is prohibited by area restrictions.

Note on the picture skipping

If a DVD has a crack, dirt, etc., it may be unable to be read or a picture skipping may occur.

Very rarely, playback sound could be skipped due to compatibility with the player.

In this case, take the disc and the player to your nearest Sony dealer.

On the discs recorded with digital surround sound

To make the most of Dolby Digital or DTS recorded discs, an audio component with built-in external surround decoder system must be connected to the digital output of this player. See “Listening from an Audio Component” for more information (page 49).

Note on CPRM compatible discs

This player cannot play “one-time recordable” content recorded on DVD-R/DVD-RW discs compatible with CPRM (Content Protection for Recordable Media) protection technology. CPRM is a copyright protection technology developed for content that allows recording only once.

Note on DualDiscs

A DualDisc is a two sided disc product which mates DVD recorded material on one side with digital audio material on the other side. However, since the audio material side does not conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard, playback on this product is not guaranteed.
