SYSTEM INFORMATION
Shared Modes

This allows the VES to output radio sources to the
headphones and the radio to output VES sources
to the vehicle speakers. When the radio and VES
channel 1 or 2 are in the same (shared) mode, a
VES icon will be visible on the radio’s display for
that channel, and the shared icon will be visible
on the VES screen. When in shared mode, the
same audio source is heard in the shared
headphone channel 1 or channel 2.
If the radio functions (FM, AM, or SAT) are in the
sh

ared mode with the VES, only the radio is able
to control the radio functions. In this case, VES
can share the radio mode, but not change
stations until the radio mode is changed to a
mode that is different from the VES selected
radio mode. When shared, the radio has priority
for all radio modes (FM, AM). The VES has the
ability to switch tuner (AM/FM), SEEK, TUNE,
and recall presets in radio modes as long as it is
not in shared mode.
When in shared disc, both the radio and the VES
h a

ve control of the video functions. The VES has
the ability to control the following video modes:
NOTE:
CD: Ability to Fast Forward, Rewind, and
Track Up/Down.
The VES can even control radio modes or video
m o

des while the radio is turned off. The VES can
access the radio modes or disc modes by
navigating to those modes on the VES and
activating a radio mode or disc mode.

following types of discs 3
in (8 cm) or 4 in
(12 cm) diameter:
DVD-Video discs (MPEG-2 video compres -
sion) (see notes about DVD Region Codes)
Audio Compact Discs (CDs)
CD Data discs with MP3 and WMA
compressed audio format files
Video CDs (MPEG-1 video compression)
DVD Region Codes
The DVD player and many DVD discs are coded
b y

geographic region. These region codes must
match in order for the disc to play. If the region
code for the DVD disc does not match the region
code for the player, the disc will stop playing
and a warning will be displayed.

MULTIMEDIA 375
DVD Audio Support
When a DVD-Audio disc is inserted in the DVD
pl

ayer, 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
r e

corded in CD-Audio or Video-CD format, or as a
CD-ROM containing MP3 or WMA files. The player
will also play DVD-Video content recorded to a
DVD-R, DVD-RW and DVD-ROM discs.

If you record a disc using a personal computer,
th
ere 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 guidelines
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.
For CD Data (or CD-ROM) discs, always use
the ISO-9660 (Level 1 or Level 2), Joliet, or
UDF format. CD-DA may also be used for PCM
Audio contained on CD-Based Data.
The player recognizes a maximum of 512
files and 99 folders per CD-R and CD-RW
disc.
Mixed media recordable DVD formats will
only play the Video_TS portion of the disc.
If you are still having trouble writing a disc that
i s

playable in the DVD player, check with the
disc recording software publisher for more
information about burning playable discs.
The recommended method for labeling
r e

cordable discs (CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R and
DVD-RW) 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 player is capable of playing MP3
(
M

PEG-1 Audio Layer 3 with data bitrates from
32 to 320 kbit/s, including variable bit rates),
WMA (All Standard 8.x, 9.x Windows Media
Audio) and ACC (MPEG-4 audio; sampling
frequencies 8 to 48 kHz; mono and stereo)
audio files with the from 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 ".mp3" or
".MP3", WMA files must always end with the
extension ".wma" or "WMA", and ACC files must
end with the extensions “.acc” or “.m4a”. To
prevent incorrect playback, do not use these
extensions for any other types of files.

For MP3 files, ID3 tag data v1, v1.1, v2 and
v2.4 (such as artist name, track title, album,
etc.) are supported.
Any file that is copy protected (such as those
downloaded from many online music stores)
will not play. The DVD player will automati -
cally skip the file and begin playing the next
a v

ailable file.
9

376 MULTIMEDIA
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 playing the next available
file.

If you are creating your own files, the recom -
mended fixed bit rate for MP3 files is between 96
a n

d 192Kbps and the recommended fixed bit
rate for WMA files is between 64 and 192Kbps.
Variable bit rates are also supported. For both
formats, the recommended sample rate is either
44.1kHz or 48kHz.

To change the current file, use the remote
control’s or DVD player’s Play button to
advance to the next file, or the Menu button
to return to the start of the current or
previous file.
To change the current directory, use the
remote control’s PROG UP and Down buttons
or Rewind/skip back and fast fwd/skip
forward.
Disc Errors
If the DVD player is unable to read the disc, a
" D

isc Error" message is displayed on the Radio
display and the disc is automatically ejected. A dirty, damaged, or incompatible disc format
a
r

e all potential causes for a "Disc Error"
message.

If a disc has a damaged track which results in
a u

dible or visible errors that persists for 2
seconds, the DVD player will attempt to continue
playing the disc by skipping forward 1 to 3
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
h o

t conditions, such as when the vehicle’s
interior temperature is above 120°F (49°C).
When this occurs, the DVD player will display
"High Temp" and will shut off the display until a
safe temperature is reached. This shutdown is
necessary to protect the optics of the DVD player.

VOICE COMMAND (UCONNECT 3/3 NAV)
UCONNECT 3/3 NAV
The Uconnect Voice Command
system allows you to control your AM,
FM

radio, satellite radio, disc player,
SD Card, USB/iPod® and SiriusXM®
Travel Link.
NOTE:
Take care to speak into the Voice Command
s y

stem as calmly and normally as possible.
The ability of the Voice Command system to
r e

cognize user voice commands may be nega-
tively affected by rapid speaking or a raised
v o

ice level. When you push the Uconnect Voice Command
button, you hear a beep. The beep is your
signal to give a command.
If no command is spoken the system says one
o f

two responses:
I didn't understand
I didn't get that
If a command is not spoken a second time, the
s y

stem will respond with an error and give some
direction as what can be said based on the
context you are in. After three consecutive
failures of a spoken command the VR session
will end. Pushing the Uconnect Voice Command

button while the system is speaking is known as
“ b

arging in.” The system will be interrupted, and
after the beep, you can say a command. This
becomes helpful once you start to learn the
options.
NOTE:
At any time, you can say the words “Cancel” or
“ H

elp.”
These commands are universal and can be
u s

ed from any menu. All other commands can
be used depending upon the active application.
When using this system, you should speak
c le

arly and at a normal speaking volume.
The system best recognizes your speech if
the windows are closed, and the heater/air
c o

nditioning fan is set to low.
At any point, if the system does not recognize
o n

e of your commands, you will be prompted to
repeat it.
To hear available commands, push the
U c

onnect Voice Command button and say
“Help.” You hear available commands for the
s c

reen displayed.
