Notes

While playing a Super VCD on which the audio track 2 is not recorded, no sound will come out when you select “2:STEREO,” “2:1/L,” or “2:2/R.”

When playing in DVD-VR mode: If you connect to an audio component using the DIGITAL OUT (COAXIAL or OPTICAL)/HDMI OUT jack and want to switch between the sound tracks, set “DOLBY DIGITAL” to “D-PCM” in “AUDIO SETUP” (page 59).

If “MODE (MP3, JPEG)” is set to “AUTO” or “AUTO (BGM)” (page 50), you can hear the player’s internal background sound when MP3 is not played.
