Region Code (page 7)
This system is used to protect copyrights. A
region number is allocated on each DVD
player or DVD disc according to the sales
region. Each region code is shown on the
player as well as on the disc packaging. The
player can play the discs that match its region
code. The player can also play discs with the
mark. Even when the region code is not
shown on the DVD, the region limit may still
be activated.

TV Virtual Surround (TVS) (page 53)
Technology from Sony developed to produce
surround sound for home use using just a
stereo TV. Designed to work with the sound
characteristics of your TV, this technology
brings the excitement of surround sound to
your home using nothing more than your
stereo TV’s internal speakers. Furthermore,
various TVS modes are available. For
example, “TVS WIDE” uses just two
speakers to create a virtual sound
environment that makes you feel like you are
surrounded by multiple speakers.
