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

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.

lite channel, or track number. To en-

tion buttons (▲,
▼,►,◄) to navi-
gate to the desired digit.

Information Mode Video Screen Display
207

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.
210

If a disc has a damaged track which
results in audible or visible errors that
persists for 2.0 seconds, the DVD
player will attempt to continue play-
ing the disc by skipping forward 1.0
to 3.0 seconds at a time. If the end of
the disc is reached, the DVD player
will return to the beginning of the disc
and attempt to play the start of the
first track.
The DVD player may shut down dur-
ing extremely hot conditions, such as
when the vehicle’s interior tempera-
ture is above 48°C . When this occurs,
the DVD player will display "VES
High Temp" and will shut off the
VES™ displays until a safe tempera-
ture is reached. This shutdown is nec-
essary to protect the optics of the DVD
player.Display
Other Language Setup
All of the Language settings have a
special "Other" setting to accommo-
date languages other than Japanese or
English. These languages are selected
using a special four-digit code.
To enter a new language code, acti-
vate the DVD Setup Menu. To enter
DVD Setup Menu stop the DVD, enter
radio disc mode, then DVD setup and
follow these additional instructions:
Using the remote control Up and
Down cursor buttons, highlight the Language item you want to edit,
and then press the remote control
ENTER button.
Using the remote control Down cur- sor button, select the "Other" set-
ting, then press the remote control’s
Right cursor button to begin editing
the setting.
Using the remote control Up and Down cursor buttons, select a digit
for the current position. After se-
lecting the digit, press the remote
control’s Right cursor button to se-
lect the next digit. Repeat this digit
selection sequence for all four
digits.
When the entire four-digit code is entered, press the remote control’s
ENTER button. If the language
code is not valid, the numbers all
change back to "*". If the digits are
visible after this step, then the lan-
guage code is valid.
