About the DVD-Player
With this DVD-Player you can play a vast variety of DVD-formats
➯ Page 38, „Technical data“.
However, you must be aware that in many cases DVDs are encrypted
with a so-called “Regional Code”. This species for which region in the
world the DVD is intended. As an example, the DVDs marked with regi-
onal code “1” are intended for the USA and Canada. DVDs with regional
code “2” are for use in Europe.
NOTE:
With your DVD-Player you can only play DVDs with regional code “2”.
There are both lots of burning and compressing methods as well as
high quality dierences in (burned) CDs/DVDs. Moreover, the music
industry has not yet agreed on a xed standard for copy protection.
This may, in very isolated cases, result in problems when relaying CDs,
DVDs and MP3 CDs. This is no malfunction of the player.
Furthermore, there may be isolated problems when playing CDs or DVDs
which were created on a PC (e.g. holiday photographs). In case of pro-
blems check the settings of the DVD writing program on your computer.
You should in particular make sure that the DVD has been nalized. For
further information on this matter please refer to the operating manual
of your recorder.
Input Not Possible
If an input or function selected by you is not possible, the words
„INVALID KEY“ appear on the screen.
Track: ”Track” is the designation for sections on an Audio-CD. This
may be a song, the set of a symphony, etc.
Title/Chapter: Video-DVDs are divided into “Title” and „Chapters“. A
„Title“ may be e.g. a particular lm, the „Chapters“ may be subsec-
tions of this lm.
MPEG4:Your DVD player is also suitable for playing back les that
have been compressed using the MPEG-4 system (short for Moving
Picture Experts Group-4). MPEG-4 is a compression method by
means of which large quantities of data can be reduced without any
noticeable loss of picture and sound quality.
NOTE:
It is not possible to guarantee full compatibility with all of the com-
pression methods used worldwide, particularly when more than one
soundtrack or subtitles are involved. Also MPEG 4 les with integrated
special functions such as a menu, subtitles etc. are not always sup-
ported. This is no malfunction of the player.
