(Region Coding Enhancement) discs. The Ayre
DX-7 can also play these, although you may need to
set the region manually.
When the player queries these RCE discs, they tell
the player that they are from all regions. The player
then cannot adjust itself automatically to the correct
region. The disc then queries the player to see if the
player’s region matches the disc’s actual region.
Playback is only allowed if the regions match.
To ensure proper playback of RCE discs, you may
need to manually change the region of the player to
match the RCE disc. This is accomplished via a
hidden function in the On-Screen Setup Menus
(page 63).
Since most RCE discs are Region 1, it is usually
convenient to leave the player set to Region 1
also. Most RCE discs will then play automatically,
and the player will automatically adjust to play the
region of non-RCE discs.
Multiple Video Displays
As all of the video outputs on the DX-7 are active
simultaneously, it is possible to connect more than
one video display at a time. This may be especially
useful in whole-house distribution systems.
Please note however that this practice may result in
a slight decrease in your system’s performance. This
is not due to any limitations of the DX-7; rather it
is because modern video displays use switching
power supplies that inject a level of noise into the
