CD-RWs
Some DVD+RWs/DVD+Rs, DVD-RWs/DVD-Rs, or CD-Rs/
CD-RWs cannot be played on this player due to the recording
quality or physical condition of the disc, or the characteristics
of the recording device and authoring software.
The DVD disc will not play if it has not been correctly
finalized. For more information, refer to the operating
instructions for the recording device. Note that some playback
functions may not work with some DVD+RWs/DVD+Rs, even
if they have been correctly finalized. In this case, view the disc

• Music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies
This product is designed to playback discs that conform to the
Compact Disc (CD) standard. Recently, various music discs
encoded with copyright protection technologies are being
marketed by some record companies. Please be aware that
among those discs, there are some that do not conform to the
CD standard and may not be playable by this product.
• Note on DualDiscs
A DualDisc is a two sided disc product which mates DVD
recorded material on one side with digital audio material on the
other side.
However, since the audio material side does not conform to the
Compact Disc (CD) standard, playback on this product is not
guaranteed.
• Note about double-layer DVDs
The playback pictures and sound may be momentarily
interrupted when the layers switch.
About playback of discs recorded in
AVCHD format
This player can play AVCHD format discs.
What is the AVCHD format?
The AVCHD format is a high definition digital video camera
format used to record SD (standard definition) or HD (high
definition) signals of either the 1080i specification*
1
or the 720p
specification*
2
on DVDs, using efficient data compression
coding technology. The MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format is adopted
to compress video data, and the Dolby Digital or Linear PCM
system is used to compress audio data. The MPEG-4 AVC/
H.264 format is capable of compressing images at higher
efficiency than that of the conventional image compressing
format. The MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format enables a high
definition (HD) video signal shot on a digital video camera
recorder to be recorded on DVD discs, in the same way as it
would be for a standard definition (SD) television signal.
“AVCHD” and the AVCHD logo are trademarks of Matsushita Electric
Industrial Co., Ltd. and Sony Corporation.
*
1
A high definition specification which utilizes 1080 effective scanning
lines and the interlace system.
*
2
A high definition specification which utilizes 720 effective scanning
lines and the progressive system.
Notes
• Some AVCHD format discs may not play, depending on the recording
condition.
• The AVCHD format disc will not play if it has not been correctly
finalized.
