Discs and formats you can play
In spite of the progress made to ensure playability of
all disc types , it is not possible to guarantee playback
of discs which do not comply with DVD, CD,VCD or
SVCD standards.This unit may not play some
recordings or files on CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD-RW,
DVD+R, DVD+RW due to differences in recording
formats, software used and disc types.
DVD-Video
Digital video discs - 12 cm and 8 cm, single- or
double-sided, single or dual layer. DVDs are high-
density optical discs on which high-quality images and
audio are recorded by means of digital signals.
DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R,
DVD+RW
Most DVD-R and DVD+R (one recording only),
DVD-RW and DVD+RW discs (rewritable).
Depending on the DVD writer and discs used.
Recordings using DVD-R and DVD-RW discs must be
made in Video DVD mode. Recordings using
DVD+RW discs must be made in accordance with
the specifications for DVD+RW discs with a 4.7 GB
capacity.
VCD - Video Compact Disc
CD on which you can record up to 74 min. of
VHS-quality video associated with still images, audio
tracks and interactive menus.
SVCD - Super Video Compact Disc
Most SVCDs comply with the IEC62107 standard.
SVCDs can be used to record up to 70 minutes of
digital sound and images in accordance with MPEG-2
standards for video and MPEG-1 standards for audio.
Audio CDs
Audio CDs (8 and 12 cm).
CD-R, CD-RW
Most CD-R (one recording only) and CD-RW discs
(rewritable).
This player can play most CD-R discs. CD-Rs written
during a multisession recording can also be played,
provided that the session has ended before the disc is
played (depending on the write software). However,
depending on the condition of the CD-writer,
computer and the disc used, you may find that not all
discs will play successfully.When playing a CD-R disc,
it is completely normal for the unit to take up to 20
seconds to recognise the disc before starting to play.
If the disc is not recognised after a period of 20
seconds, remove the disc, and then insert it again.
• Irrespective of the actual recording capacity of the
CD-R, do not use its full capacity. • CD-Rs should be
preferably used instead of CD-RWs (rewritable CDs)
as, in certain cases, CD-RW playback may be faulty. •
Use reliable, good-quality CD write software. • Close
all other applications on the computer to ensure
reliable CD-R disc recording.
