Displaying Video
The video screen has two different operating modes, a
video mode (when displaying video such as DVD video,
Aux video, etc.) and an information mode as shown in
Figure 116. Because the VES™ is a dual channel system,
Information Mode is displayed in a split screen format.
When in Information Mode, the left side of the screen
is referred to as Channel 1 and the right side of the
screen is referred to as Channel 2. Only Channel 1 displays video images. When in video
mode the image is displayed on the full screen, however
Channel 2’s functionality is still available. A popup
banner at the bottom of the screen is displayed mo-
mentarily over the video image. While in video mode
and Channel 2 is selected on the remote control
selector switch, the first remote control key press will
activate the popup banner indicating Channel 2’s sta-
tus. While the banner is still visible, any subsequent
remote control key press for Channel 2 shall initiate
the requested remote control command.

• Close the video screen.
• To change the current audio mode, press the remotecontrol’s MODE button. This will automatically se-
lect the next available audio mode without using the

charged batteries are installed in the headphones.
Disc Formats
The DVD player is capable of playing the following
types of discs (12 cm or 8 cm diameter):
• DVD-Video discs (MPEG-2 video compression) (see notes about DVD Region Codes)
• Audio Compact Discs (CDs)
• CD Data discs with MP3 and WMA compressed audio format files
• Video CDs (MPEG-1 video compression) DVD Region Codes
The 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 stop playing and a warning will be
displayed.
DVD Audio Support
When a DVD-Audio disc is inserted in the 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 ma-
terial 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 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, DVD-RW and DVD-ROM discs.
If you record a disc using a personal computer, there
may be cases where the DVD player may not be able to
play some or the entire disc, even if it is recorded in a

• If you are creating your own files, the recommendedfixed bit rate for MP3 files is between 96 and
192Kbps and the recommended fixed bit rate for
WMA files is between 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 or Rewind/
skip back and fast fwd/skip forward. Disc Errors
If the DVD player is unable to read the disc, a "Disc
Error" message is displayed on the Radio display and
the disc is automatically ejected. A dirty, damaged, or
incompatible disc format are all potential causes for a
"Disc Error" message.
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 playing 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 during extremely hot
conditions, such as when the vehicle’s interior tem-
perature is above 120°F. When this occurs, the DVD
player will display "High Temp" and will shut off the
display until a safe temperature is reached. This shut-
down is necessary to protect the optics of the DVD
player.
