■DVD video disc information
●DVD video discs
A DVD video disc is a Digital Versatile Disc that holds video. DVD video discs have
adopted “MPEG2”, one of the world standards of digital compression technolo-
gies. The picture data is compressed by 1 /40 on average and stored. Variable rate
encoded technology in which the volume of data assigned to the picture is changed
depending on the picture format has also been adopted. Audio data is stored using
PCM and Dolby Digital, which enables higher quality of sound. Furthermore, multi-
angle and multi-language features will also help you enjoy the more advanced
technology of DVD video.
●Viewer restrictions
This feature limits what can be viewed in conformity with the level of restrictions of
the country. The level of restrictions varies depending on the DVD video disc.
Some DVD video discs cannot be played at all, or violent scenes are skipped or
replaced with other scenes.
Level 1: DVD video discs for children can be played.
Level 2-7: DVD video discs for children and G-rated movies can be played.
Level 8: All types of DVD video discs can be played.
●Multi-angle option
You can enjoy the same scene from different angles.
●Multi-language option
You can select the subtitle and audio languages.
●Region codes
The region codes are provided on DVD players and DVD discs. If the DVD video
disc does not have the same region code as the DVD player, you cannot play the
disc on the DVD player. ( →P. 4 5 4 )
●Audio
This DVD player can play linear PCM, Dolby Digital and MPEG audio format
DVDs. Other decoded types cannot be played.
●Title and chapter
Video and audio programs stored in DVD video discs are divided into parts by title
and chapter.
Title: The largest unit of the video and audio programs stored on DVD video discs.
Usually, one movie, one album, or one audio program is assigned as a title.
Chapter: A title is comprised of one or more chapters.

CAUTION
■DVD video precaution
Conversational speech on some DVDs is recorded at a low volume to emphasize
the impact of sound effects. If you adjust the volume assuming that the conversa-
tions represent the maximum volume level that the DVD will play, you may be star-
tled by louder sound effects or startled when you change to a different audio
source.
Loud sounds may have a significant impact on the human body or pose a driving
hazard. Keep this in mind when you adjust the volume.

●MP3 and WMA playback
• When a device containing MP3 or WMA files is connected, all files in the USBmemory device are checked. Once the file check is finished, the first MP3 or
WMA file is played. To make the file check finish more quickly, we recommend
that you do not include any files other than MP3 or WMA files or create any
unnecessary folders.
• When the USB device is connected and the audio source is changed to USB memory mode, the USB device will start playing the first file in the first folder. If
the same device is removed and reinserted (and the contents have not been
changed), the USB device will resume play from the same point in which it was
last used.
●Extensions
If the file extensions .mp3 and .wma are used for files other than MP3 and WMA
files, they will be skipped (not played).
●Playback
• To play MP3 files with steady sound quality, we recommend a fixed bit rate of atleast 128 kbps and a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz.
• There is a wide variety of freeware and other encoding software for MP3 and WMA files on the market, and depending on the status of the encoding and the
file format, poor sound quality or noise at the start of playback may result. In
some cases, playback may not be possible at all.
