Playable discs
This player can play the following discs.
• You cannot play discs other than those listed above.
• You cannot play discs of DVD-RAM or non-standardized discs, etc., even if they may be labeled as above.
• This player uses the NTSC color system.
• Depending on the data recording method or the disc status, playback on this player may not be possible, even if the
disc is labeled as above. Toshiba cannot assure that all discs bearing the DVD or CD logos will operate as expected.
Because of problems and errors that can occur during the creation of DVD and CD software and/or the manufacture of
DVD and CD discs, Toshiba cannot guarantee that this DVD player will play every feature of every DVD bearing the
DVD logo and/or every CD bearing the CD logo. As one of the creators of DVD technology, Toshiba DVD players are
manufactured using the highest standards of quality, and as a result, such incompatibilities are rare. If you happen to
experience any difficulty playing a DVD or a CD on this DVD player, please feel free to contact us via the methods listed
in the “How to Obtain Warranty Services” sections on pages
