About DualDisc playback
A DualDisc is a new two -sided disc, one side of which contains DVD
content video, audio, etc. while the other side contains non-DVD
content such as digital audio material.
The non-DVD, audio side of the disc is not compliant with the CD
audio specification and therefore may not play.
