Unfinalized DVD-R/-RW discs which have been re-
corded in the Video format (video mode) cannot be
played back.
Playback of DVD-R/DVD-RW discs may not be possi-
ble, due to disc characteristics, scratches or dirt on
the disc, or dirt, condensation, etc. on the lens of this
unit.
Depending on the application settings and the envir-
onment, playback of discs recorded on a personal
computer may not be possible. (For details, contact
the manufacturer of the application.)
CD-R/CD-RW discs
When CD-R/CD-RW discs are used, playback is possi-
ble only for discs which have been finalized.

DualDiscs
DualDiscs are two-sided discs that have a recordable
CD for audio on one side and a recordable DVD for
video on the other.
Playback of the DVD side is possible with this unit.
However, since the CD side of DualDiscs is not physi-
cally compatible with the general CD standard, it may
not be possible to play the CD side with this unit.
Frequent loading and ejecting of a DualDisc may re-
sult in scratches on the disc. Serious scratches can
lead to playback problems on this unit. In some
cases, a DualDisc may become stuck in the disc load-
ing slot and will not eject. To prevent this, we recom-
mend you refrain from using DualDisc with this unit.
Please refer to the information from the disc manu-
facturer for more detailed information about
DualDiscs.

eras.)
Playback of EXIF format files that were processed by a
personal computer may not be possible.
There is no progressive JPEG compatibility.
DivX video files

such as the number of audio streams or file size,
