Note for DivX®
•  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 devices 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 an 
DivX® file. All files with the “.avi” extension are 
recognized as MPEG4.
•  Files whose extension other than “.avi” and “.divx” will 
not be listed on the DivX® menu. However, unplayable 
folders and files may be displayed, depending on the 
recording conditions.
•  Even if the file has an extension of either “.avi” and 
“.divx”, this unit cannot play it back if it is recorded in 
the format other than DivX®.
•  A symbol of 
 is shown on the top of the file name.
•  A maximum of 255 folders or 999 files may be 
recognized in a disc.
•  Up to 8 hierarchies can be recognized in a folder. Files 
in the 9th or deeper hierarchies cannot be played back.
•  If there are more than 9 files, a down arrow “
” 
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 bottom of 
the screen.

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 characteristics, bit rates, or audio format 
settings, etc.
•  A DivX® file whose file size exceeds 2 GB cannot be 
played back.
•  If a large-sized DivX® file is selected, it may take awhile 
to start the playback (over 20 seconds sometimes).
• 
If you try to playback the DivX® file that has the screen 
resolution which this unit does not support, the 
playback will be stopped and error message will appear.
•  If DivX® files written on a CD-RW/-R cannot be played 
back, rewrite them on a DVD-RW/-R or DVD+RW/+R 
and try to play back.
•  For more information for 
DivX®, please visit
