yDepending 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.

yDepending on the recording software & the

nalization, some recorded discs (CD-R/RW,
DVD±R/RW, BD-R/RE) may not be playable.

yBD-R/RE, DVD±R/RW and CD-R/RW discs

recorded using a personal computer or a
DVD or CD Recorder may not play if the
disc is damaged or dirty, or if there is dirt or
condensation on the player’s lens.

yIf 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.)

yThis player requires discs and recordings to

meet certain technical standards in order to
achieve optimal playback quality.

yPre-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.

yCustomers should note that permission

is required in order to download MP3 /

Our company has no right to grant such
permission. Permission should always be
sought from the copyright owner.

yYou 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 :

network (LAN) via the LAN port on the rear panel.
By connecting the unit to a broadband home
network, you have access to services such as
software updates and BD-Live interactivity.

Using a wired network provides the best
performance, because the attached devices
connect directly to the network and are not subject
to radio frequency interference.

port on your Modem or Router using a
commercially available LAN or Ethernet cable.
