This player is compatible with DVD, Video CD, and CD
disc formats. Users already familiar with Video CD or CD
will already be familiar with some of the functions the
player is capable of performing. With DVD, an even
greater number of possibilities and functions are
available.
Note
DVDs differ in content and do not all contain the same
information. Therefore some functions in this section may
not work or have no effect on some DVDs.

capable discs, you can block access to material you feel
is inappropriate for your children. Refer to the DVD disc
jacket and the accompanying documentation to see if a
particular disc contains a parental lock level.
