System Information
Shared Modes
This allows the VES™ to output radio
sources to the headphones and the
radio to output VES™ sources to the
vehicle speakers. When the radio and
VES™ channel 1 or 2 are in the same
(shared) mode, a VES™ icon will be
visible on the radio’s display for that
channel, and the shared icon will be
visible on the VES™ screen. When in
shared mode, the same audio source is
heard in the shared headphone chan-
nel 1 or channel 2.
206
Page 213 of 360

If the radio functions (FM, AM, or
SAT) are in the shared mode with the
VES™, only the radio is able to con-
trol the radio functions. In this case,
VES™ can share the radio mode, but
not change stations until the radio
mode is changed to a mode that is
different from the VES™ selected ra-
dio mode. When shared, the radio has
priority over the VES™ or all radio
modes (FM, AM, and SAT). The
VES™ has the ability to switch tuner
(AM/FM), SEEK, SCAN, TUNE, and
recall presets in radio modes as long
as it is not in shared mode.
When in shared disc mode both the
radio and the VES™ have control of
the video functions. The VES™ has
the ability to control the following
video modes:
1. CD: Ability to Fast Forward, Re-
wind, Scan, and Track Up/Down.
2. CD Changer (in radio): Ability to
Disk Up/Down and program all listed
CD controls (Fast Forward, Rewind,
Scan, and Track Up/Down).The VES™ can even control radio
modes or video modes while the radio
is turned off. The VES™ can access
the radio modes or disc modes by
navigating to those modes on the
VES™ and activating a radio mode or
disc mode.

trol’s SETUP button activates the
Display Settings menu. These settings

these settings under normal circum-
stances.
To change the settings, press the re-
mote control’s navigation buttons (▲,

If the screen is closed and there is no
audio heard, verify that the head-
phones are turned on (the ON indica-
tor is illuminated) and the headphone
selector switch is on the desired chan-
nel. If the headphones are turned on,
press the remote control’s power but-
ton to turn audio on. If audio is still
not heard, check that fully charged
batteries are installed in the head-
phones.
Disc Formats
The VES™ DVD player is capable of
playing the following types of discs
(120 mm or 80 mm diameter):
DVD-Video discs (MPEG-2 videocompression) (see notes about DVD
Region Codes)
DVD-Audio discs (2 channel audio output only)
Audio Compact Discs (CDs)
CD Data discs with MP3 and WMA compressed audio format files
Video CDs (MPEG-1 video com- pression) DVD Region Codes
The VES™ DVD player and many
DVD discs are coded by geographic
region. These region codes must
match in order for the disc to play. If
the region code for the DVD disc does
not match the region code for the
player, the disc will not play and will
be ejected.
DVD Audio Support
When a DVD-Audio disc is inserted in
the VES™ DVD player, the DVD-
Audio title on the disc is played by
default (most DVD-Audio discs also
have a Video title, but the Video title is
ignored). All multi-channel program
material is automatically mixed down
to two channels, which may result in a
lowered apparent volume level. If you
increase the volume level to account
for this change in level, remember to
lower the volume before changing the
disc or to another mode.
Recorded Discs
The VES™ DVD player will play
CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded in
CD-Audio or Video-CD format, or as a CD-ROM containing MP3 or WMA
files. The player will also play DVD-
Video content recorded to a DVD-R or
DVD-RW disc. DVD-ROM discs (ei-
ther pressed or recorded) are not sup-
ported.
If you record a disc using a personal
computer, there may be cases where
the VES™ DVD player may not be
able to play some or the entire disc,
even if it is recorded in a compatible
format and is playable on other play-
ers. To help avoid playback problems,
use the following guidelines when re-
cording discs.
Open sessions are ignored. Only
sessions that are closed are play-
able.
For multi-session CDs that contain only multiple CD-Audio sessions,
the player will renumber the tracks
so each track number is unique.
For CD Data (or CD-ROM) discs, always use the ISO-9660 (Level 1
or Level 2), Joliet, or Romeo for-
mat. Other formats (such as UDF,
HFS, or others) are not supported.
209
Page 216 of 360

The player recognizes a maximumof 512 files and 99 folders per
CD-R and CD-RW disc.
Mixed media recordable DVD for- mats will only play the Video_TS
portion of the disc.
If you are still having trouble writing a
disc that is playable in the VES™
DVD player, check with the disc re-
cording software publisher for more
information about burning playable
discs.
The recommended method for label-
ing recordable discs (CD-R, CD-RW,
and DVD-R) is with a permanent
marker. Do not use adhesive labels as
they may separate from the disc, be-
come stuck, and cause permanent
damage to the DVD player.
Compressed Audio Files (MP3 and
WMA)
The DVD player is capable of playing
MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3) and
WMA (Windows Media Audio) files
from a CD Data disc (usually a CD-R
or CD-RW). The DVD player always uses the
file extension to determine the au-
dio format, so MP3 files must al-
ways end with the extension
".mp3" or ".MP3" and WMA files
must always end with the extension
".wma" or ".WMA". To prevent in-
correct playback, do not use these
extensions for any other types of
files.
For MP3 files, only version 1 ID3 tag data (such as artist name, track
title, album, etc.) are supported.
Any file that is copy protected (such as those downloaded from many
online music stores) will not play.
The DVD player will automatically
skip the file and begin playing the
next available file.
Other compression formats such as AAC, MP3 Pro, Ogg Vorbis, and
ATRAC3 will not play. The DVD
player will automatically skip the
file and begin playing the next
available file. If you are creating your own files,
the recommended fixed bit rate for
MP3 files is between 96 and
192Kbps and the recommended
fixed bit rate for WMA files is be-
tween 64 and 192Kbps. Variable
bit rates are also supported. For
both formats, the recommended
sample rate is either 44.1kHz or
48kHz.
To change the current file, use the remote control’s or DVD player’s ▲
button to advance to the next file,
or the ▼button to return to the
start of the current or previous file.
To change the current directory, use the remote control’s PROG Up and
Down buttons.
Disc Errors
If the DVD player is unable to read the
disc, a "Disc Error" message is dis-
played on the VES™ and Radio dis-
plays and the disc is automatically
ejected. A dirty, damaged, or incom-
patible disc format are all potential
causes for a "Disc Error" message.
