• On some DVD or VCD/SVCD discs, their actual operations
may be different from what is explained in this manual. This is
due to the disc programming and disc structure, but not a
malfunction of this system.
• DVD-R/RW discs recorded with the DVD VIDEO format can be
played back. However, some discs may not be played back
because of the disc characteristics or recording conditions.
Note that unfinalized disc cannot be played back.
• The following discs cannot be played back:
– DVD-Audio, DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, CD-ROM, CD-I, (CD-I
Ready), Photo CD, SACD, etc.
Playing back these discs will generate noise and damage the
speakers.
* Note on Region Code
DVD players and DVD have their own Region Code numbers. This
system only can play back DVD whose Region Code numbers
include "4."
Examples:
If a DVD with the inadequate Region Code numbers is loaded,
"REGION ERR" appears on the display and playback cannot
start.
IMPORTANT: Before performing any operations, make sure of
the following....
• Check the connection with the TV.
• Turn on the TV and select the correct input on the TV to view the
pictures or on-screen indications on the TV screen.
• For DVD playback, you can change the Setup menu setting to
your preference. (See pages 38 to 40.)

If " " appears on the TV screen when pressing a button, the
disc cannot accept an operation you have tried to do, or
information required for that operation is not recorded in the disc.
NOTICE : In some cases, without showing " ," operations will
not be accepted.
Disc structure—DVD, Video CD (VCD/SVCD) and Audio CD (CD)
A DVD consists of Titles, and each title may be divided into some
Chapters. (See Example 1.)
For example, if a DVD contains some movies, each movie may have
its own title number, and it may be further divided into some
chapters.
On the other hand, a VCD/SVCD/CD consists of Tracks. (See
Example 2.)
In general, each song has its own track number. (On some discs,
each track may also be divided by Indexes.)
When playing back a VCD/SVCD with Playback Control (PBC)
function, you can select what to view using the menu shown on the
TV screen. (While operating a VCD/SVCD using the menu, some of
the functions such as Repeat and Track Search may not work.)
Example 1: DVD
Example 2: VCD/SVCD/CD
Notes on CD-R and CD-RW
User-edited CD-Rs (Recordable) and CD-RWs (Rewritable) can be
played back only if they are already "finalized."
• The system can play back CD-Rs or CD-RWs recorded on a
personal computer if they have been recorded in the VCD/SVCD
format, audio CD format, MP3 format, and JPEG format (see page
30).
However, they may not be played back depending on their
characteristics or recording conditions.
• Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their instructions or
cautions carefully.
• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this system
because of their disc characteristics, damage or stain on them, or if
the built-in lens is dirty.
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time. This is caused by the
fact that the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than for regular CDs.
