Note
Some DVD-Rs, DVD-RWs, CD-Rs, or CD-RWs 
cannot be played on this player due to the recording 
quality or physical condition of the disc, or the 
characteristics of the recording device. DVD-RWs in 
VR mode may also take time to playback due to the 
recording condition.
Furthermore, the disc will not play if it has not been 
correctly finalized. For more information, see the 
operating instructions for the recording device.
Some playback operations of DVDs and 
VIDEO CDs may be intentionally set by 
software producers. Since this player plays 
DVDs and VIDEO CDs according to the disc 
contents the software producers designed, 
some playback features may not be available. 
Also, refer to the instructions supplied with 
the DVDs or VIDEO CDs.
