DVD/Blu-ray/BD Region Codes
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 sup-
ported.
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.
