from a CD disc (usually a CD-R, CD-RW) or a DVD disc
(usually a DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-RW or DVD+RW).
• The Blu-Ray™ Player always uses the file extension to
determine the video format, so DivX files must always
end with the extension “.div”, “divx” or “.avi”. To
prevent incorrect playback, do not use these extensions
for any other types of files.

The DVD player/Blu-ray™ Player and many DVD/Blu-
ray Discs™ are coded by geographic region. These region
codes must match in order for the disc to play. If the
region code for the DVD/Blu-ray Disc™ does not match
the region code for the player, the disc will stop playing
and a warning will be displayed.
DVD Audio Support
When a DVD-Audio disc is inserted in the DVD player,
the DVD-Audio title on the disc is played by default
(most DVD-Audio discs also have a Video title, but the
Video title is ignored). All multi - channel program
material is automatically mixed down to two channels,
which may result in a lowered apparent volume level. If
you increase the volume level to account for this change
in level, remember to lower the volume before changing
the disc or to another mode.

Recorded Discs
The DVD player will play CD-R and CD-RW discs
recorded in CD-Audio or Video-CD format, or as a
CD-ROM containing MP3, WMA or AAC (Blu-ray Disc™
Player only) files. The player will also play DVD-Video
content recorded to a DVD-R or DVD-RW disc. DVD-
ROM discs (either pressed or recorded) are not supported.
If you record a disc using a personal computer, there may
be cases where the DVD player may not be able to play
some or the entire disc, even if it is recorded in a
compatible format and is playable on other players. To
help avoid playback problems, use the following guide-
lines when recording discs.
•Open sessions are ignored. Only sessions that are
closed are playable.
• For multi-session CDs that contain only multiple CD-
Audio sessions, the player will renumber the tracks so
each track number is unique. •

ISO-9660 (Level 1 or Level 2), Joliet, or Romeo format.
Other formats (such as HFS, or others) are not sup-
ported.

folders.
• The player recognizes a maximum of 512 files and 99
folders per CD-R and CD-RW disc.

the Video_TS portion of the disc.
• Mixed disc which contains DivXwill be priority
played on Blu-ray Disc™ Player .

playable in the DVD player, check with the disc recording
software publisher for more information about burning
playable discs.

The recommended method for labeling recordable discs
(CD-R, CD-RW, and DVD-R) is with a permanent marker.
Do not use adhesive labels as they may separate from the
disc, become stuck, and cause permanent damage to the
DVD player.
Compressed Audio Files (MP3 / WMA and ACC)
The DVD / Blu-ray™ Player (if equipped) is capable of
playing MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3) and WMA (Win-
dows Media Audio) files from a CD Data disc (usually a
CD-R or CD-RW).
•The DVD player always uses the file extension to
determine the audio format, so MP3 files must always
end with the extension .mp3or.MP3 and WMA
files must always end with the extension .wmaor
.WMA. AAC files must always end with the exten-
sion aac orAAC. To prevent incorrect playback, do
not use these extensions for any other types of files. •
For MP3 files, only version 1 ID3 tag data (such as
artist name, track title, album, etc.) are supported.
• For Blu-ray™ files, only version 1.0 / 1.1 / 2.2 / 2.3
and 2.4 ID3 tag data (such as artist name, track title,
album, etc.) are supported.
• Any file that is copy protected (such as those down-
loaded from many online music stores) will not play.
The DVD player will automatically skip the file and
begin playing the next available file.
• Other compression formats such as AAC, MP3 Pro,
Ogg Vorbis, and ATRAC3 will not play. The DVD
player will automatically skip the file and begin play-
ing the next available file.
• If you are creating your own files, the recommended
fixed bit rate for MP3 files is between 96 and 192 Kbps
and the recommended fixed bit rate for WMA files is
between 64 and 192 Kbps. Variable bit rates are also
4

supported. For both formats, the recommended
sample rate is either 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.
• To change the current file, use the DVD player ’s
button to advance to the next file, or the button to
return to the start of the current or previous file.

trol’s PROG UP and Down buttons or Rewind/skip

Disc Errors
If the DVD player is unable to read the disc, a Disc Error
message is displayed on the Radio display and the disc is
automatically ejected. A dirty, damaged, or incompatible
disc format are all potential causes for a Disc Error
message.
If a disc has a damaged track which results in audible or
visible errors that persists for 2.0 seconds, the DVD
player will attempt to continue playing the disc by skipping forward 1.0 to 3.0 seconds at a time. If the end
of the disc is reached, the DVD player will return to the
beginning of the disc and attempt to play the start of the
first track.
The DVD player may shut down during extremely hot
conditions, such as when the vehicle’s interior tempera-
ture is above 120° F (49° C). The Blu-ray™ Player may
shut down when the vehicle’s interior temperature ex-
ceeds 140° F (60° C). When this occurs, the DVD /
Blu-ray™ Player will display
High Tempand will shut
off the display until a safe temperature is reached. This
shutdown is necessary to protect the optics of the DVD /
Blu-ray™ Player.
The Blu-ray™ player may require additional reading
time during extremely cold weather conditions. When
this occurs, allow the vehicles interior temperature to
warm, then insert disc into player.
