*1: This unit conforms to the NTSC color system. Discs recorded in other color systems such as PAL cannot be played back.
*2: Certain DVD-Video discs do not operate as described in this manual due to the intentions of the disc’s producers.
*3: Discs recorded in the VR (Video Recording) format cannot be played back.

played back, the sound or video quality will be compromised.
*7: You may play back the unfinalized DVD-R/RW disc recorded in the video format on our brand’s DVD recorder. However, depending on the
recording status of a disc, the disc may not be played back at all or normally (the picture or sound may not be smooth, etc.). In this case,
you need to finalize the disc with the DVD recorder. Refer to the manual accompanying the DVD recorder.
*8: Only the discs recorded in the video format and finalized can be played back.
Unfinalized discs cannot be played back. Depending on the recording status of a disc, the disc may not be played back at all or normally
(the picture or sound may not be smooth, etc.).
