• The DVD 22 is compatible with most discs recorded
with files encoded using MP3 or Windows Media 9,
as well as JPEG still images. However, note that
variations in the encoder or codec used and the bit
rate of the encoding may affect the capability of the
DVD 22 to play back a specific disc. As a result, we
cannot guarantee complete compatibility with all
encoders and versions of the codecs.
• Although the DVD 22 is not compatible with DVD-
Audio discs, most DVD-A discs also contain a copy
of the program material recorded in the standard
Dolby Digital format. The DVD will play back those
portions of the disc, regardless of the format of the
rest of the disc.
NOTE:
Playback of CD-R or CD-RW discs created on
a computer requires proper formatting and finalization
of the disc for audio playback. Some computers
and/or software programs may not be capable of cre-
ating compatible discs.
The DVD 22 will NOT play the following:
•
DVD discs with a Region Code other than 1
•
DVD discs with PAL format video
•
DVD-ROM data discs
•
DVD-RAM discs
• SACD discs
•
CD-I discs
•
CD-G discs
•
SVCD discs
•
Photo CD discs
• Discs intended for use in video game consoles
NOTE:
Due to differences in the formatting of certain
discs, it is possible that some discs may include
features that are not compatible with the DVD 22.
Similarly, although the DVD 22 is capable of a wide
range of features, not all discs include every capability
of the DVD system. For example, although the DVD 22
is compatible with multi-angle discs, that feature is only
possible when the disc is specially encoded for multi-
ple-angle play. In addition, the DVD 22 is capable of
playing back both Dolby Digital and DTS soundtracks,
but the number and types of tracks available will vary
from disc to disc. To make certain that a specific fea-
ture or soundtrack option is available, please check the
options noted on the disc jacket.
• Playback of DTS audio discs requires connection to
a processor or receiver with a DTS decoder.
• Playback capability for CD- or DVD-recordable discs
may vary due to variations in the quality of the disc
and the recorder used to create the disc.
