PLAYBACK BASICS  

Loading Discs

To load discs in the DVD 37, first turn the DVD 37 
on by pressing in the 

Power On/Off Switch

1

or

Power On Button

0

. Note that the 

Power

Indicator

0

will turn amber when the unit is con-

nected to an AC power source. It will turn blue when
the 

Power On Button

0

is pressed.

Next, press the 

Open/Close Button 

1

A

until the

disc tray opens.

Hold the disc by the edge, and gently place it into the
disc drawer, making certain that the disc is properly
seated in the tray’s insert. If the disc is not correctly
centered, you may damage both the disc and the 
player when the drawer closes. When loading discs,
please note the following:

• The DVD 37 will play discs with the following logos

as well as most DVD-RW or DVD+RW discs and
most WMA and JPEG discs, including Kodak Picture
CDs, but not Kodak Photo CDs. DO NOT attempt to
play another type of disc.

• The DVD 37 will only display video in the NTSC for-

mat. Although the PAL format is generally used in
Europe and other regions of the world outside North
America, some music or other DVDs are available in
PAL with a Region Code of “0,” which means they
may be played on any DVD player around the world.
The DVD 37 will automatically detect the PAL for-
mat, and make the necessary conversions so that
the video may be displayed on an NTSC TV. PAL
discs bearing a Region Code other than “0” or “1”
may not be played on the DVD 37.

• Playback capability for CD-RW, DVD-RW, DVD-R,

DVD+RW or DVD+R discs will vary according to the
quality of the disc. On some occasions it is possible
that these discs may not play on the DVD 37. This
does not indicate any problem with the DVD 37.

• The DVD 37 will only play discs that are coded for

Region 1 or discs that are open to being played 
in all regions (Region Code “0”). Discs that contain 
a Region Code of 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 (as noted by a
number inside a world map logo on the disc’s
cover jacket or case) will not play.

• Both 5-inch (12cm) and 3-inch (8cm) discs 

may be used.

• When loading CDs or DVD-Audio discs, load the

discs with the label side up.

• When loading DVD-Video discs with printed labels,

load them label side up. If the disc contains both
standard and high-definition versions of the pro-
gram, make sure the “Standard DVD” label faces up.

• Some DVD-Video discs are double-sided. The title

information for these will be printed on the inner ring
of the disc, very close to the center hole. The title for
the side you wish to play should be facing up.

After a disc is properly loaded, press the 

Open/Close

Button 

1

A

to close the disc drawer. After the

drawer closes, you will see a brief indication of

LOADING

in both the 

Main Information

Display 

B

and in the on-screen display to alert you

to the fact that the unit is determining the type of disc
(DVD-Video, DVD-Audio, CD, VCD, JPEG, WMA or MP3)
and is reading the data for track, chapter, title and other
information about the disc.

Once the disc’s data has been read, the type of disc
will be displayed by the 

Disc-Type Indicator

A

and

its type will be identified in the upper right corner of
the screen. If the disc is a DVD, CD or VCD2.0 disc, it
will automatically begin playing. The disc’s track timing
information and other relevant data will appear in the

Main Information Display 

B

.

Any time a control button is pressed, an icon will
appear in the upper right corner of the screen to 
indicate the player’s action. These icons include the
standard transport modes (play, stop, pause, forward
and reverse fast and slow search, track skip), the
open/close disc drawer symbol, the repeat and ran-
dom modes, and the prohibit icon (Ø) if the command
action is not available at that time or for that disc. As
explained in more detail in other sections of this 
manual, pressing the 

Status Button

R

displays 

the Status Banner for DVDs, and pressing the 

Info

Button

i

displays the Player Information menu.

• When a DVD is detected, playback will automatically

begin and the screen will show the program or the
disc’s menu, depending on how the disc was created.

• If a CD is detected, playback will begin automatically.

• If the disc contains MP3, WMA or JPEG files, or 

if it is a VCD without playback control, the Player
Information display will appear (see Figure 11). To
play one of these files, you may need to use the

Figure 11

If a disc is already in the drawer when the unit is
turned on, it will begin playing. If the disc was stopped
using the Resume function, playback will begin from
the point where it was stopped. If the disc was
stopped by pressing the
