Introduction
DIGITAL VIDEO
Playable discs
This DVD video player can play the following discs.
• You cannot play discs other than those listed above.
• You cannot play DVD-RAM discs or non-standardized discs,
etc., even if they may be labeled as above.
• This DVD video player uses the NTSC/PAL colour system,
and cannot play DVD video discs recorded in any other

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 assure that this DVD video
player will successfully play every disc bearing the DVD and
CD logos. 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.
