NOTE

Depending on the conditions of the recording equipment or the CD-R/RW (or DVD±R/RW ) disc itself, some CD-R/RW (or DVD±R/RW) discs cannot be played on the unit.

Depending on the recording software & the  nalization, some recorded discs (CD-R/RW, DVD±R/RW, BD-R/RE) may not be playable.

If you record a disc using a personal computer, even if it is recorded in a compatible format, there are cases in which it may not play because of the settings of the application software used to create the disc. (Check with the software publisher for more detailed information.)

This player requires discs and recordings to meet certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal playback quality.

Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically set to these standards. There are many di erent types of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing MP3 or WMA  les) and these require certain pre-existing conditions to ensure compatible playback.

Customers should note that permission is required in order to download MP3 / WMA  les and music from the Internet. Our company has no right to grant such permission. Permission should always be sought from the copyright owner.

You have to set the disc format option to [Mastered] in order to make the discs compatible with the LG players when formatting rewritable discs. When setting the option to Live System, you cannot use it on LG player. (Mastered/Live File System : Disc format system for windows Vista)
