51 Reference • Even though listed above, some types may be unplayable. * 1 Discs should be finalized before being played back. * 2 A DVD-R recorded in multi-border format is also playable (except for dual layer discs). * 3 For files recorded on a DVD-R/DVD-RW, the disc should be formatted with UDF Bridge. * 4 This sysytem may not recognize some USB mass storage class devices. This system can- not play back a file whose data volume is more than 2 gigabytes and a file whose data transfer rate is more than 2 Mbps. It is possible to play back finalized +R/+RW (DVD Video Format only) discs. “DVD” lights on the front display panel when a +R/+RW disc is loaded. Some discs may not be played back because of their disc characteristics, recording conditions, or damage or stains on them. Only sounds can be played back from the following discs: MIX-MODE CD CD-G CD-EXTRA CD TEXT Region code of DVD VIDEO DVD VIDEO players and DVD VIDEO discs have their own Region Code numbers. This system can play back a DVD VIDEO whose Region Code number includes the system ’s Region Code, which is indicated on the rear panel. If a DVD VIDEO with an improper region code number is loaded, “REGION CODE ERROR!” appears on the TV screen and playback cannot start. • On some DVD VIDEOs, VCDs, SVCDs or DivX files, their actual operation may be different from what is explained in this manual. This is due to the disc/file pr ogramming and disc/file structure, not a malfunction of this system. This system is compatible with the PAL standard only. Playable disc/file types Playable discs *1DVD VIDEO, VCD, SVCD, CD, CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R *2, DVD-RW, +R, +RW Playable files recorded on a disc *1, *3MP3, WMA, WAV, JPEG, ASF, DivX, MPEG1, MPEG2 Playable files recorded on a USB mass storage class device *4 Playable files stored on a computer (Only for DD-8 and DD-3) Refer to the separate volume of the operation manual for the network function.

Before playback, confirm that the disc complies with this CD specificati on by checking the marks and reading notes printed on the package. • CDs recorded in the ISO 9660 format are play- able (except CDs recorded in the “packet write” format (UDF format)). • CDs recorded in the multi-session format are also playable. • Files with an extension of “.mp3”, “.wma”, “.wav”, “.jpg”, “.jpeg”, “.asf”, “.di vx”, “.div”, “.avi”, “.mpg” or “.mpeg” (extensions with uppercase and low- ercase letters mixed are also acceptable) are playable. • This system cannot play back DVDs recorded in multi-session or multi-border format. • A disc may not be played back, or reading it may take a long time depending on its recording con- ditions or properties. • The time needed for reading varies with the number of groups or tracks (files) recorded on the disc. • If a character other than single byte English characters is used in the file name of an MP3/ WMA/JPEG/ASF file, the tr ack/file name will not be displayed correctly. • The order of tracks/groups displayed on the MP3/WMA menu screen, and the order of files/ groups displayed on the JPEG menu screen may be different from that of files/folders dis- played on a computer monitor screen. • In the case of MP3/WMA discs, since groups/ tracks are played back in alphabetical order, a commercially available MP3/WMA disc may be played back in an order different from that indi- cated on the label attached to the disc. • Playing back an MP3/WMA file including a still image may take a long time. The elapsed time is not displayed until playing back starts. If playing back starts, the elapsed time may not be dis- played correctly. • For an MP3/WMA file, a disc with a sampling fre- quency of 44.1 kHz and transmission rate of 128 kbps is recommended. • This system is not compatible with MP3i or MP3PRO. • This system can play back a baseline JPEG file, excluding monochromatic JPEG files. • This system can play back JPEG data taken with a digital camera conforming to the DCF (Design Rule for Camera File System) standard (when a function is applied such as the automatic rotation function of a digital camera, data goes beyond the DCF standard, so the image may not be dis- played). • If data has been processed, edited and restored with computer image editing software, the data may not be displayed. • This system cannot play back animations such as MOTION JPEG, still pictures (TIFF etc.) other than JPEG, or image data with sound. • The resolution of 640 x 480 pixels is recom- mended for JPEG files. If a file has been recorded at a resolution of more than 640 x 480 pixels, display may take a long time. An image with a resolution of more than 8 192 x 7 680 pix- els cannot be displayed. • The system supports ASF files recorded with the maximum bit rate of 384 kbps and an audio coder decoder of G.726. • For a WAV file, a disc with a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz and a transmission rate of 16 bits is recommended.

54 Reference DVD VIDEO A DVD VIDEO consists of “titles” and each title may be divided into “chapters”. VCD/SVCD/CD A VCD/SVCD/CD consists of “tracks”. In general, each track has its own track number. (On some discs, each track may also be further divided by indexes.) MP3/WMA/WAV/JPEG/ASF/DivX/MPEG1/ MPEG2 files Audio, still pictures and video are recorded as tracks/files on a disc or a USB mass storage class device. Tracks/files are usually grouped into a folder. Folders can also include other folders, cre- ating hierarchical folder layers. This system simplifies the hierarchical construction of files and manages folders by “groups”. . This system can recognize up to 4 000 tracks/files on a disc. Also, the system can recognize up to 150 tracks/files per group and up to 99 groups on a disc. Since the system igno res the tracks/files with numbers exceeding 150 and the groups with num- bers exceeding 99, these cannot be played back. If there are any type of files other than MP3/WMA/ WAV/JPEG/ASF/DivX/M PEG1/MPEG2 files on a disc, those files are also counted in the total file number. • Do not use any non-standard shape disc (like a heart, flower or credit card, etc.) available on the market, because it may damage the system. • Do not use a disc with tape, stickers, or paste on it, because it may damage the system. • Do not bend the disc. • Be sure not to use thinners, benzenes, cleaners for analog records, or other chemical agents.
