Pc Created Disc Compatibility; Titles, Chapters, Groups And Tracks; Dvd-Video Regions - Pioneer VRD1160-A Operating Instructions Manual

Before You Start
• This player is compatible with multi-
session discs, but only plays sessions that
are closed.
• Use CD-R or CD-RW media for recording
your MP3 files.
• This player can recognize a combined total
of up to 250 tracks and folders. If a disc
containing over 250 tracks/folders is
loaded, only the first 250 tracks/folders
recorded on the disc will be playable.
• Folder and track names (excluding the
".mp3" extension) are displayed.
• There are many different recording bit-
rates available to encode your MP3 files.
This unit was designed to be compatible
with all of them. Audio encoded at
128Kbps should sound close to regular CD
Audio quality. This player will play lower
bit-rate MP3 tracks, but please note that
the sound quality becomes noticeably
worse at lower bit-rates.

PC Created Disc Compatibility

• If you record a disc using a personal
computer, even if it is recorded in a
"compatible format" as listed above, there
will be cases in which the disc may not be
playable in this machine due to the setting
of the application software used to create
the disc. In these particular instances,
check with the software publisher for more
detailed information.
• Check the DVD-R/RW or CD-R/RW
software disc boxes for additional
compatibility information.

Titles, chapters, groups and tracks

DVD-Video discs are generally divided into
one or more titles. Titles may be further
subdivided into chapters.

contain further subfolders.

DVD-Video regions

All DVD-Video discs carry a region mark on
the case somewhere that indicates which
region(s) of the world the disc is compatible
with. Your DVD player also has a region
mark, which you can find on the rear panel.
Discs from incompatible regions will not play
in this player. Discs marked ALL will play in
any player.
