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. It is possible that when loading or
ejecting a DualDisc, the opposite side to that being played will be scratched. Scratched
discs may not be playable. The DVD side of a DualDisc plays in this product. DVD-
Audio content will not play. For more detailed information on the DualDisc specification,
please refer to the disc manufacturer or disc retailer.
