COPY PROTECTION

• Many DVD discs are encoded with copy protection. Because of this, you should only connect your DVD player

directly to your TV, not to a VCR. Connecting to a VCR results in a distorted picture from copy-protected DVD

discs.

• This product incorporates copyright protection technology that is protected by methods claims of certain U.S.

patents and other intellectual property rights owned by Macrovision Corporation and other rights owners. Use of
this copyright protection technology must be authorized by Macrovision Corporation, and is intended for home

or disassembly is prohibited.

* To ensure proper playback of discs burned from MP3 

files, make sure the files have been recorded at a bit rate

of at least 128kbps.

* If there are any gaps (blank data) on multi-session discs, 

you may experience playback problems.

* On discs that are recorded with a Variable Bit Rate(VBR),

e.g. from 32 to 320kbps, the sound may cut in and out.
