Hint for the purchased or rental Official DivX®

•  When you purchased or rental a DivX® file 

through the DivX® Video-On-Demand (VOD) 
services, a registration code is required every time 
you get the new file from the DivX® VOD services. 
Refer to “DivX® VOD” on page 59.

•  Some DivX® VOD files are restricted with the 

limited playable times (you cannot play them 
back beyond the limit). If your DivX® VOD file has 
such limit, the playback confirmation screen will 
appear. 

 Use 

[Cursor { / B] to select “YES” if you want 

to play back the file, or to select “NO” if you do 
not wish to play it back. Then, press [ENTER] to 
confirm the selection.

•  You cannot play back the DivX® VOD files, of 

which rental period has been expired. In such 
case, press [TOP MENU] and select other files 
that can be played back.

•  DivX® is a codec (compression/decompression) 

that can compress images to a very small amount 
of data. The software can compress video data 
from almost any sources to the size that can be 
sent on the Internet without compromising visual 
quality of the images.

•  A file with an extension of “.avi” and “.divx” 

is called an DivX® file. All files with the “.avi” 
extension are recognised as MPEG4.

•  Files whose extension other than “.avi” and “.divx” 

will not be listed on the DivX® menu. However, 
unplayable groups or tracks may be displayed, 
depending on the recording conditions.

•  Even if the file has an extension of either “.avi” 

and “.divx”, this unit cannot play it back if it is 
recorded in the format other than DivX®.

•  Folders are known as Groups; files are known as tracks.
•  A symbol of 

 is shown on the top of the file name.

•  A maximum of 255 folders or 999 files may be 

recognised in one disc.

•  Up to 8 hierarchies can be recognised in one 

folder. Files in the 9th or deeper hierarchies 
cannot be played back.

•  If the track extends beyond the scope of screen, a 

down arrow “L” appears, indicating that the user 
can view another part on the previous page. The 
current page number and the number of total pages 
are shown on the right of the down arrow “L”.

•  The name of group and track can be displayed up 

to 29 characters. Unrecognisable characters will 
be replaced with asterisks.

•  You can play back the disc recorded in multi-

session.

•  Playback will be paused if the File List is displayed 

during the playback.

•  It may take a while for audio and images to be 

output after you inserted a disc and pressed 
[PLAY B].

•  When playing back the files recorded in high bit 

rates, the images can be interrupted in some 
occasions.

•  Although DivX® logo has been obtained for this 

unit, it may not be able to play back some data, 
depending on the characteristics, bit rates, or 
audio format settings, etc.

•  Use the software recognised by the DivX, Inc. 

when you make DivX® files.

•  A DivX® file whose file size exceeds 2GB cannot 

be played back.

•  When using tools or utilities to make up DivX® 

files, read their instruction manual beforehand.

•  Never use the MPEG4 tools when you make 

DivX® files. Otherwise, noise or disturbance of the 
picture and sound may be generated.

•  If a large-sized DivX® file is selected, it may take 

a while to start the playback (over 20 seconds 
sometimes).
