Only discs whose region number includes "2" or "ALL" can be played back such as shown below. Examples of DVD VIDEO labels which can be played back using this unit. CD-RW CD-DA/JPEG/ MP3 files Playback may not be performed depending on the characteristics and condition of the disc used. DTS Audio CDs can also be played back (An optional DTS decoder is required). MP3 and JPEG discs can be played back on this unit only when they have been recorded in the ISO9660 or Joliet format and finalised. JPEG files that can be played back on this unit must conform to JFIF/ Baseline process, and the maximum resolution of a JPEG file is 3,840 x 2,160 pixels. CD-R/RW discs recorded in music CD format need to be finalised to play back on this unit. Operation and audio quality of this unit are not guaranteed for discs that do not conform to the Compact Disc specification (CD-DA). Before you play back a CD, check for the CD logo and read the notes on the package to confirm that it conforms to the Compact Disc specification. Depending on the intentions of the author of the software, recording conditions of DVD discs and Video CD/SVCD discs may be restricted. Since this unit plays back discs according to the intentions of the author of the software as indicated on the disc, some functions may not operate as commanded.

Editing can be performed after recording, such as deleting unwanted parts. While recording, it is possible not only to start playback of a programme currently being recorded, but also to watch another programme previously recorded. Audio CD/Video CD/SVCD Typically, Audio CD discs are divided into separate tracks each containing one song. Each track is assigned a number. For example, the third track is Track 3. The same is true for Video CD/ SVCD discs. However, some discs are not divided into tracks. S Audio CD or Video CD/SVCD Track 1 Track 2 Track 3 Track 4 DVD-RW (VR mode) Recording and erasing can be performed as many times as possible on a disc. Editing can be performed after recording, such as deleting unwanted parts. JPEG/MP3 Disc (CD-R/RW/ROM) MP3/JPEG files put in directories nested in several levels on a disc will be organized as if they were put in single level directories (groups) by the MP3/JPEG Navigation of this unit. ( pg. 55) File structure of a disc before starting the MP3/JPEG Navigation DVD-RW (Video mode) Can be played back on other DVD players. New recording can be performed by erasing all the data on a disc once played back. DVD-R Can be played back on other DVD players. Suitable when keeping a recorded disc for a long time. File Structure Of Discs DVD VIDEO Typically, DVD VIDEO discs are made up of larger units called "titles". Each title has a number (title number) that can be used to select desired titles. Titles are further divided into units called "chapters". Each chapter has a number (chapter number) that can also be used to select desired chapters. Note that some discs are not divided into titles and chapters. When you record a programme on a DVD-RAM/RW (VR mode) disc A single recording session results in a single title (a single chapter). However, chapter marks are automatically inserted when recording is paused, or audio changes from monaural to stereo due to commercial breaks, etc. It is also possible to insert chapter marks at desired locations during playback. ( pg. 27) When you record a programme on a DVD-R/RW (Video mode) disc A single recording session results in a single title (a single chapter). However, chapter marks are automatically inserted when recording is paused, or audio changes due to commercial breaks, etc. It is also possible to insert chapter marks at desired locations during either recording or playback. Once the disc has been finalised, these chapter marks are deleted and new chapter marks are assigned automatically approximately every 5 minutes. DVD-RAM, DVD-RW, DVD-R or DVD VIDEO disc Title 1 Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 1 Title 2 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Directory MP3 file JPEG file File structure of the disc after starting the MP3/JPEG Navigation Files are automatically grouped as follows and displayed on the MP3/JPEG Navigation screen. Data is displayed in the alphabetical order of file name. Files are grouped based on roots. In Video mode, even before finalising, it is impossible to perform editing operations other than changing the disc name and/or title names and deleting programmes and/or titles. After finalising, it is impossible to perform editing operations. This unit can recognise up to 9 hierarchies including directories and files. Also, it can recognise up to 250 files in each group, and up to 99 groups on a disc. NOTES: Video CD/SVCD discs that support Playback Control (PBC) The contents of a disc are recorded into several hierarchies, and played back according to the instructions on the screen while navigating through the hierarchies. It is also possible to playback recorded tracks consecutively without activating the PBC function even when playing a PBC-compatible disc. ( pg. 29) Regarding the contents recorded on discs Some files may not be played back depending on the file types and other factors. 8 EN DISC INFORMATION DVD VIDEO Marks Sometimes marks are printed on a DVD disc and/or on its packaging to indicate information regarding the contents and functions of the disc. Check the marks indicating the contents and functions of the disc. Note, however, that in some cases a disc may not include a mark even for a function it supports.

If you insert the disc with "Side A" facing down, programmes are recorded on the side A. Single-sided discs: Remove the disc from the cartridge. Align the disc with the grooves on the disc tray as shown in the illustration and insert with the label side facing up. DISC INFORMATION EN 9 Care And Handling Of Discs How to handle discs When handling a disc, do not touch the surface of the disc. Since discs are made of plastic, they are easily damaged. If a disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped, the images and sound will not be picked up correctly, and such a disc may cause the unit to malfunction. Label side Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesives on its surface. Recording side Make sure that discs are not scratched and dirty on the recording side before use. Scratches and dirt on the recording side of a disc may hinder proper playback and recording. Also be careful that a DVD-RAM disc may get scratched or dirt when removed from cartridge then put back in after use. Storage Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled on top of one another without their protective cases, they can be damaged. Do not put discs in a location where they may be exposed to direct sunlight, or in a place where the humidity or temperature is high. Avoid leaving discs in your car! Maintenance of discs If there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering to a disc, wipe with a soft dry cloth, moving from the centre outwards. If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a cloth moistened with water. Never use record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any anti-static agents. CAUTION: Sometimes during playback, noise may appear or images may be garbled. This is sometimes due to the disc. (It may not be up to industry standards.) These symptoms are caused by the discs, not by the malfunction of the unit. 10 EN INDEX Front View A B C D EFGH I J HDD DVD VIDEO 1 STANDBY ON F1 S-VIDEO VIDEO L(MONO)-AUDIO-R DV DV IN K A B C D E F G H I J Infrared Beam Receiving Window Front Display Panel pg. 12 Disc Tray Open/Close Button (x) pg. 8 Stop Button (8) pg. 25, 40 Play Button (4) pg. 25, 40 Pause Button (9) pg. 25, 40 Record Button (7) pg. 35, 38 HDD Button pg. 38 DVD Button pg. 25 L M N OP K Standby/On Button (1) L Video Lamp (VIDEO) pg. 36, 39 M S-Video/Video/Audio Input Connectors (S-VIDEO/ VIDEO/AUDIO (L/R)) pg. 59 N DV Input connector (DV IN (i*)) pg. 58 * i (i.Link) refers to the IEEE1394-1995 industry specification and extensions thereof.
