Note:

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 a DivX® file. All files with the “.avi” extension are recognized as MPEG 4.

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 player cannot play it back if it is recorded in the format other than DivX®.

Folders are known as groups; files are known as tracks.

DivX® files are accompanied by DX icon.

Folders are accompanied by icon.

Maximum of 255 folders can be recognized.

Maximum of 999 files can be recognized.

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 left of the down arrow “L”.

The name of folder and file can be displayed up to 25 characters. Unrecognizable characters will be replaced with “* asterisks”.

Up to 8 hierarchies can be recognized.

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 disc characteristics, bit rates, or audio format settings, etc.

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

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

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

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

If DivX® files wrote on CD cannot be played back, rewrite them on a DVD and try to play back.
