• 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 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.

About SCAN MODE
To display video on the monitor (television) screen, the conventional scanning method is called "Interlaced scan':
With this method, only half of the horizontal lines are displayed at a time. So two fields complete a single picture
(frame); i.e., the first field, containing all the odd-numbered lines, is displayed followed by the second field, containing
all the even-numbered lines.
On the other hand, the Progressive scan system scans all horizontal lines at a time, so you can double the number of
pictures compared with the interlaced scan, resulting flicker-free, high-density picture.
To enjoy the progressive scanned video, a monitor (or TV or projector) to be connected to the unit must have the
Progressive inputs.
Depending on the material source format, DVD VIDEO discs can be classified into two types; film source and video
source (Note that some DVD VIDEO discs contain both film source and video source). Film sources are recorded as 24-
frame-per-second information, while (NTSC) video sources are recorded as 30-frame-per-second (60-field-per-second
interlaced) information.
When the unit plays back a film source material, uninterlaced progressive output signals are created using the original
information. When a video source material is played back, the unit interleaves lines between the interlaced lines on
each to create the pseudo uninterlaced picture and outputs as the progressive signal.
You can enjoy high-quality audio by connecting the unit's audio output to your amplifier or receiver.
