About discs
Playable disc types
Playable and non-playable disc types are as follows:
Playable discs
DVD VIDEO
SVCD
Video CD
Audio CD
The DVD VIDEO Logo is a trademark.
• CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded with SVCD, Video CD, Audio CD or MP3 format can be played back, though
some may not be played back because of the disc characteristics or recording condition. Note that the CD-R
and CD-RW that are not finalized cannot be played back.
• DVD VIDEO players and DVD discs have their own Region Code numbers. This unit only can play back DVD
VIDEO discs whose Region Code numbers include “2.”
Examples of playable DVD VIDEO discs:
1 2
3 4

Non-playable discs
DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, DVD AUDIO, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+RW, CD-ROM, PHOTO CD, CD-EXTRA, CD-G,
CD-TEXT, SACD
• Playing back discs listed as “Non-playable discs” above may generate noise and damage speakers.
• This unit can play back audio recorded in CD-G, CD-EXTRA and CD-TEXT discs.
Disc structure
A DVD VIDEO disc is comprised of “titles,” while an Audio CD, Video CD or SVCD is comprised of “tracks.”
Each title may be divided into some “chapters.” For example, if a DVD VIDEO disc contains some movies,
each movie may have its own title number, and each movie may be divided into some chapters. In a DVD
VIDEO karaoke disc, each song usually has its own title number and does not have chapters. In general, each
title has independent content, while each chapter in the same title has continuity.
For the MP3 disc structure, see page 40.

Connect the unit to a TV equipped with stereo audio input and video input jacks using the supplied audio/video
cables.
• If your TV has a monaural audio input instead of stereo, you need to use an optional audio cable which
converts stereo audio output to monaural.
• If your TV has an S-video input, you should connect it with the S-VIDEO output of the unit using the S-video
cable (optional) in addition to the (standard) video connection to get better picture quality.

MP3 disc playback
This unit can playback CD discs recorded by the MP3
format (we refer to those discs as MP3 discs in this
manual).
Unavailable functions
Operations for MP3 discs are similar to those for
Audio CD discs, though there are some restrictions
and differences.
As described earlier, there are some restriction for
playback of MP3 discs. Following functions are not
available with MP3 discs.
What is MP3?
Unavailable functions for MP3 discs
MP3 is the abbreviation of “MPEG1 Audio Layer
3.” MPEG Audio is a compression specification
that compresses the audio portion only. This
image compression method is used in DVD or
Video CD, etc. The audio data has been
compressed into about 1/10.

Track 2
• You cannot playback Tracks in the desired
(programmed) or random order, nor playback a
Track repeatedly.
• The screen saver function is not active with an
MP3 disc, as with an Audio CD.
This unit can recognize up to 99 Groups and up to
254 Tracks per Group, however, the number of
Tracks to be played back on a disc is limited to 1023.
If a disc includes more than 1023 Tracks, the unit stops
detecting Tracks when the number of detected Tracks
reaches 1023 and ignores the subsequent Tracks. The
unit also ignores any non-MP3 file in the disc.
NOTES for making a private MP3 disc
using a CD-R/CD-RW disc:
• Select “ISO 9660” as the disc format.
• Do not select the “multi-session” recording.
• Finalize the disc.
NOTES
• Because of the disc characteristics or recording
condition, some discs may not be played back
or it takes time to start playback.
•
The unit does not support “packet writing” discs.
• If there are any Tracks (files) which are stored
on a disc directly and do not belong to any
Group (directory), the unit recognized them as
belonging to an independent Group.
• The unit does not output a digital audio signal
from DIGITAL OUT when playing back an MP3
disc.
• The unit plays back Groups/Tracks on an MP3
disc in the alphabetical order.
For example, if there are three title Groups
[one], [two] and [three] on a disc, the playback
order is [one], [three] then [two]. Tracks in a
Group are played back in the same way.
Therefore, an MP3 disc on the market may be
played back in the different order from the
order printed on its sleeve.

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 player to malfunction.
Label side
Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesive on its surface.
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 center
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 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.
