Video Mode Setting

With certain discs, the playback picture may be flick-
ering or Dot Crawl is shown on straight lines. That
means Vertical interpolation or De-interlace is not 
perfectly matched with the disc. In this case, the 
picture quality may be improved by changing the
video mode. 

To change the video mode, press and hold DISPLAY
about 3 seconds during disc playback. The new video
mode number selected is displayed on the TV screen.
Check whether the video quality has improved. If not,
repeat the above procedure until picture quality is
improved.

Video mode change sequence: 

MODE1 

→ 

MODE2 

MODE3 

MODE4 

→ 

MODE5 

→ 

MODE1

If you turn off the power, the video mode will be back
to initial state (MODE1).

Notes on MP3 Discs

About MP3

An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using
MPEG1, the audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call
files that have the .mp3 file extension MP3 files.

The DVD+VCR cannot read an MP3 file that has a
file extension other than .mp3.

The DVD+VCR cannot read a fake MP3 file that has
a file extension .mp3.

MP3 disc compatibility with this DVD+VCR is
limited as follows:

1. Sampling Frequency/only at 44.1kHz
2. Bit rate/within 32 - 320kbps
3. CD-R physical format should be ISO 9660
4. If you record MP3 files using the software which

cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example Direct-
CD etc., it is impossible to playback MP3 files. We
therefore recommend that you use Easy-CD
Creator, which creates an ISO9660 file system.

5. A single session disc requires MP3 files in the first

track. If there is no MP3 file in the 1st track, it can-
not playback MP3 files. If you wish to playback MP3
files, format all the data in the disc or use a new
one.
This player can play the CD-DA Multi-session disc.
But, we cannot guarantee for all other Multi-session
discs.

6. File names should be named using 8 letters or less

and must incorporate the .mp3 extension 
e.g. “********.MP3”.

7. Do not use special characters such as

“_?!><+*}{`[@ ]:;\/.,” etc.

8. Total number of files on the disc should be 200 or

less.
If a disc contains more than 200 files, the files with
the numbers 201 or more can not be displayed and
played back.

9. Use 74 minute CD-R discs (650M), do not use 80

minute CD-R (700M) software.

This DVD+VCR requires discs/recordings to meet 
certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal
playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically
set to these standards. There are many different types
of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing
MP3 files).

Customers should also note that permission is required
in order to download MP3 files and music from the
Internet. Our company has no right to grant such per-
mission. Permission should always be sought from the
copyright owner.
