About discs

Playable discs
The DVD VIDEO Logo is a trademark.
• CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded with SVCD, Video CD, Audio CD or MP3 format can be played back, though some may
not be played back because of the disc characteristics or recording condition.
• DVD VIDEO players and DVD discs have their own Region Code numbers. This unit only can play back DVD VIDEO
discs whose Region Code numbers include “1.”
Examples of playable DVD VIDEO discs:

• Playing back discs listed as “Non-playable discs” above may generate noise and damage speakers.
• This unit can play back audio recorded in CD-G, CD-EXTRA and CD-TEXT discs.
A DVD VIDEO disc is comprised of “titles,” while an Audio CD, Video CD or SVCD is comprised of “tracks”. Each title may
be divided into some “chapters”. For example, if a DVD VIDEO disc contains some movies, each movie may have its own
title number, and each movie may be divided into some chapters. In a DVD VIDEO karaoke disc, each song usually has its
own title number and does not have chapters. In general, each title has independent content, while each chapter in the
same title has continuity.
For the MP3 CD disc structure, see page 35.
