≥ When there are more than 8 groups, the eighth group onwards will be displayed on one vertical line in the menu screen.
≥ There may be differences in the display order on the menu screen and computer screen.
≥ This unit cannot play files recorded using packet write.
Naming folders and files
(Files are treated as contents and
folders are treated as groups on this
unit.)
At the time of recording, prefix folder and
file names. This should be with numbers
that have an equal number of digits, and
should be done in the order you want to
play them (this may not work at times).
Regarding DVD-Audio
Some 5.1 channel DVD-Audio will prevent down-mixing (➜ page 39, Glossary) of all or part of their contents if this is the manufacturer's intention.
When playing such discs, or such parts of the disc, unless the number of connected speakers is the same as the disc's channel specification, audio
will not be output properly (e.g., part of the audio is missing, 5.1 channel sound cannot be selected and audio is played in two channels). Refer to the
disc's jacket for more information.
