OPERATING A DVD DISC
The playback condition of some DVD
discs may be determined by the DVD
software producer. This DVD player
plays a disc as the software producer
intended. As such some functions may
not work properly. Be sure to read the
instruction manual that comes with the
individual DVD disc. For detailed infor-
mation about DVD video discs, see
“DVD PLAYER AND DVD VIDEO
DISC INFORMATION” on page 234.
PRECAUTIONS ON DVD VIDEO
DISC
When recording with a DVD video, au-
dio tracks may not record in some cas-
es 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 or MP3/WMA disc is
playing, the first track or file starts.
If a DVD video is playing, playback will
stop or the menu screen will be dis-
played.
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 empha-
size 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.
