DualDiscs
DualDiscs are two-sided discs that have a record-
able CD for audio on one side and a recordable
DVD for video on the other.
Playback of the DVD side is possible with this unit.
However, since the CD side of DualDiscs is not
physically compatible with the general CD stand-
ard, it may not be possible to play the CD side with
this unit.
Frequent loading and ejecting of a DualDisc may
result in scratches on the disc. Serious scratches
can lead to playback problems on this unit. In
some cases, a DualDisc may become stuck in the
disc loading slot and will not eject. To prevent this,
we recommend you refrain from using DualDisc
with this unit.
