About discs

Playable disc types

Playable and non-playable disc types are as follows:

Playable discs

DVD VIDEO SVCD Video CD Audio CD

The DVD VIDEO Logo is a trademark.

• CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded with SVCD, Video CD, Audio CD or MP3 format can be played back, though some may not be played back because of the disc characteristics or recording condition.

• DVD VIDEO players and DVD discs have their own Region Code numbers. This unit only can play back DVD VIDEO discs whose Region Code numbers include “1.”

Examples of playable DVD VIDEO discs:

ALL 1 1 5

This unit accommodates the NTSC television system and can playback discs recorded with the NTSC system. Note that the unit cannot playback the disc recorded with the PAL system.

Non-playable discs

DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, DVD AUDIO, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+RW, CD-ROM, PHOTO CD, CD-EXTRA, CD-G, CD-TEXT,

SACD

• Playing back discs listed as “Non-playable discs” above may generate noise and damage speakers.

• This unit can play back audio recorded in CD-G, CD-EXTRA and CD-TEXT discs.

Disc structure

A DVD VIDEO disc is comprised of “titles,” while an Audio CD, Video CD or SVCD is comprised of “tracks”. Each title may be divided into some “chapters”. For example, if a DVD VIDEO disc contains some movies, each movie may have its own title number, and each movie may be divided into some chapters. In a DVD VIDEO karaoke disc, each song usually has its own title number and does not have chapters. In general, each title has independent content, while each chapter in the same title has continuity.

For the MP3 CD disc structure, see page 41.

(Example: DVD VIDEO disc)

)

When you play a DVD VIDEO disc recorded in Dolby

Digital which contains more than 3 channels, ACTION does not appear.

NOTES

• The 3D Phonic display will automatically disappear if you do not change the 3D PHONIC for 5 seconds.

• To turn off the 3D PHONIC display manually, press

ENTER.

• With a Video CD disc, if the Audio setting is set to L or

R, you cannot activate the 3D PHONIC function (i.e the

3D PHONIC mode is fixed to OFF).

Conversly, when the 3D PHONIC function is active, changing the AUDIO setting to L or R from STEREO cancels the 3D PHONIC function.

• The 3D PHONIC function works correctly when playing back discs recorded in the Dolby Surround or Dolby

Digital 5.1-CH format.

It also works when playing back discs other than those above, but does not provide the correct effect.

• The 3D PHONIC function does not affect the DTS or

Dolby Digital bitstream signal from the DIGITAL OUT jack.

• The sound effect will not be set or operate, even if 3D

PHONIC is pressed, for the sound of DVD VIDEO discs recorded in Linear PCM.

• When you set the 3D PHONIC function to on, the DOWN

MIX and COMPRESSION settings in the AUDIO page of the preference display are disabled.

MP3 CD playback

This unit can palyback CD discs recorded by the MP3 format

(we refer to those discs as MP3 CD discs in this manual).

Operations for MP3 CD discs are similar to those for

Audio CD discs, though there are some restrictions and differences.

What is MP3?

MP3 is the abbreviation of “MPEG1 Audio Layer 3”.

MPEG Audio is a compression specification that compresses the audio portion only. This image compression method is used in DVD or Video CD, etc.

The audio data has been compressed into about 1/10.

About MP3 CD disc

On an MP3 CD disc, each material (song) is recorded on each Track (file), which usually belongs to a Group

(folder).

Group 1 Group 2

Track 1 Track 2 Track 3 Track 1 Track 2

This unit can recognize up to 99 Groups and up to 254

Tracks per Group, however, the number of Tracks to be played back on a disc is limited to 1023.

If a disc includes more than 1023 Tracks, the unit stops detecting Tracks when the number of detected Tracks reaches 1023 and ignores the subsequent Tracks. The unit also ignores any non-MP3 file in the disc.

NOTES for making a private MP3 CD using a CD-R/CD-RW disc:

• Select “ISO 9660” as the disc format.

• Do not select the “multi-session” recording.

• Finalize the disc.

NOTES

• The unit does not support “packet write” discs.

• If there are any Tracks (files) which are stored on a disc directly and do not belong to any Group (directory), the unit recognized them as belonging to an independent

Group.

• The unit does not output a digital audio signal from

DIGITAL OUT when playing back an MP3 CD disc.

• The unit plays back Groups/Tracks on an MP3 CD disc in the alphabetical order.

For example, if there are three title Groups [one], [two] and [three] on a disc, the playback order is [one], [three] then [two]. Tracks in a Group are played back in the same way.

Therefore, an MP3 CD disc on the market may be played back in the different order from the order printed on its sleeve.

Unavailable functions

As described earlier, there are some restriction for playback of MP3 CD discs. Following functions are not available with MP3 CD discs.

Care and handling of discs

How to handle discs

When handling a disc, do not touch the surface of the disc. Since discs are made of plastic, they are easily damaged. If a disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped, the images and sound will not be picked up correctly, and such a disc may cause the player to malfunction.

Label side

Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesive on its surface.

Storage

Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled on top of one another without their protective cases, they can be damaged. Do not put discs in a location where they may be exposed to direct sunlight, or in a place where the humidity or temperature is high. Avoid leaving discs in your car!

Maintenance of discs

If there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering to a disc, wipe with a soft dry cloth, moving from the center outwards.

If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a cloth moistened with water. Never use record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any anti-static agents.

CAUTION

Sometimes during play noise or images may be garbled. This is sometimes due to the disc. (It may not be up to industry standards.)

These symptoms are caused by the discs, not by the malfunction of the unit.

About discs

Playable disc types

Playable and non-playable disc types are as follows:

Playable discs

DVD VIDEO SVCD Video CD Audio CD

The DVD VIDEO Logo is a trademark.

• CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded with SVCD, Video CD, Audio CD or MP3 format can be played back, though some may not be played back because of the disc characteristics or recording condition.

• DVD VIDEO players and DVD discs have their own Region Code numbers. This unit only can play back DVD VIDEO discs whose Region Code numbers include “1.”

Examples of playable DVD VIDEO discs:

This unit accommodates the NTSC television system and can playback discs recorded with the NTSC system. Note that the unit cannot playback the disc recorded with the PAL system.

Non-playable discs

DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, DVD AUDIO, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+RW, CD-ROM, PHOTO CD, CD-EXTRA, CD-G, CD-TEXT,

SACD

• Playing back discs listed as “Non-playable discs” above may generate noise and damage speakers.

• This unit can play back audio recorded in CD-G, CD-EXTRA and CD-TEXT discs.

Disc structure

A DVD VIDEO disc is comprised of “titles,” while an Audio CD, Video CD or SVCD is comprised of “tracks”. Each title may be divided into some “chapters”. For example, if a DVD VIDEO disc contains some movies, each movie may have its own title number, and each movie may be divided into some chapters. In a DVD VIDEO karaoke disc, each song usually has its own title number and does not have chapters. In general, each title has independent content, while each chapter in the same title has continuity.

For the MP3 CD disc structure, see page 35.

(Example: DVD VIDEO disc)

MP3 CD playback

This unit can palyback CD discs recorded by the MP3 format

(we refer to those discs as MP3 CD discs in this manual).

Operations for MP3 CD discs are similar to those for

Audio CD discs, though there are some restrictions and differences.

What is MP3?

MP3 is the abbreviation of “MPEG1 Audio Layer 3”.

MPEG Audio is a compression specification that compresses the audio portion only. This image compression method is used in DVD or Video CD, etc.

The audio data has been compressed into about 1/10.

About MP3 CD disc

On an MP3 CD disc, each material (song) is recorded on each Track (file), which usually belongs to a Group

(folder).

Group 1 Group 2

Track 1 Track 2 Track 3 Track 1 Track 2

This unit can recognize up to 99 Groups and up to 254

Tracks per Group, however, the number of Tracks to be played back on a disc is limited to 1023.

If a disc includes more than 1023 Tracks, the unit stops detecting Tracks when the number of detected Tracks reaches 1023 and ignores the subsequent Tracks. The unit also ignores any non-MP3 file in the disc.

NOTES for making a private MP3 CD using a CD-R/CD-RW disc:

• Select “ISO 9660” as the disc format.

• Do not select the “multi-session” recording.

• Finalize the disc.

NOTES

• The unit does not support “packet write” discs.

• If there are any Tracks (files) which are stored on a disc directly and do not belong to any Group (directory), the unit recognized them as belonging to an independent

Group.

• The unit does not output a digital audio signal from

DIGITAL OUT when playing back an MP3 CD disc.

• The unit plays back Groups/Tracks on an MP3 CD disc in the alphabetical order.

For example, if there are three title Groups [one], [two] and [three] on a disc, the playback order is [one], [three] then [two]. Tracks in a Group are played back in the same way.

Therefore, an MP3 CD disc on the market may be played back in the different order from the order printed on its sleeve.

Unavailable functions

As described earlier, there are some restriction for playback of MP3 CD discs. Following functions are not available with MP3 CD discs.

Care and handling of discs

How to handle discs

When handling a disc, do not touch the surface of the disc. Since discs are made of plastic, they are easily damaged. If a disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped, the images and sound will not be picked up correctly, and such a disc may cause the player to malfunction.

Label side

Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesive on its surface.

Storage

Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled on top of one another without their protective cases, they can be damaged. Do not put discs in a location where they may be exposed to direct sunlight, or in a place where the humidity or temperature is high. Avoid leaving discs in your car!

Maintenance of discs

If there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering to a disc, wipe with a soft dry cloth, moving from the center outwards.

If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a cloth moistened with water. Never use record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any anti-static agents.

CAUTION

Sometimes during play noise or images may be garbled. This is sometimes due to the disc. (It may not be up to industry standards.)

These symptoms are caused by the discs, not by the malfunction of the unit.
