320(e) Operating a DVD video disc
NOTE: The playback condition of some DVD video discs
may be determined by a DVD video software producer.
This DVD player plays a disc as the software producer
intended. So some functions may not work properly. Be
sure to
read the instruction manual for the DVD video disc
separately provided. For the detailed information about
DVD video discs, see “(h) DVD player and DVD video disc

Precautions on DVD video disc
When recording with a DVD video or video CD, audio tracks
may not record in some cases while the menu is displayed. As
audio will not play in this case, verify that the video tracks are
playing and then activate playback.
When playback of a disc is completed:
If an audio CD is playing, the next CD will be selected and
playback will begin automatically.
If a DVD video or video CD is playing, playback will stop or
the menu screen will be displayed. The next disc will not
play back automatically. (Audio tracks cannot be heard
while the disc is stopped)
The title/chapter number and playback time display may not
appear while playing back certain DVD video discs.
CAUTION
Conversational speech on some DVDs is recorded at a
low volume to emphasize the impact of sound effects.
If you adjust the volume assuming that the
conversations represent the maximum volume level
that the DVD will play, you may be startled by louder
sound effects or when you change to a different audio
source. The louder sounds may have a significant
impact on the human body or pose a driving hazard.
Keep this in mind when you adjust the volume.
