icon will be visible on the VES screen. When in shared
mode, the same audio source is heard in the shared
headphone channel 1 or channel 2.
If the radio functions (FM, AM, or SAT) are in the shared
mode with the VES, only the radio is able to control 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
radio 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, Rewind, 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.

a CD disc (usually a CD-R, CD-RW) or a DVD disc
(usually a DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-RW or DVD+RW).

prevent incorrect playback, do not use these extensions
for any other types of files.
• For DivX files, only DivX Home Theater Profile Ver.3.0
is supported.

Blu-Ray Player will automatically skip the file and
begin playing the next available file.

will not play. The Blu-Ray Player will automatically
skip the file and begin playing the next available file.

“Fast Forward” and “Fast Rewind” cannot be sup-
ported.

DVD/Blu-ray/BD Region Codes
The DVD player/Blu-ray Player and many DVD/Blu-ray
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/Blu-ray 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
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 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, WMA or AAC (Blu-ray Disc
Player only) files. The player will also play DVD-Video

content recorded to a DVD-R or DVD-RW disc. DVD-
ROM discs (either pressed or recorded) are not sup-
ported.
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
compatible format and is playable on other players. To
help avoid playback problems, use the following guide-
lines when recording discs.
•Open sessions are ignored. Only sessions that are
closed are playable.
• 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 format.
Other formats (such as HFS, or others) are not sup-
ported.
• Blu-ray Disc Player can extend 2,000 files and 255
folders.
• The player recognizes a maximum of 512 files and 99
folders per CD-R and CD-RW disc.
• Mixed media recordable DVD formats will only play
the Video_TS portion of the disc.
• Mixed disc which contains DivXwill be priority
played on Blu-ray Disc Player.
If you are still having trouble writing a disc that is
playable in the DVD player, check with the disc recording
software publisher for more information about burning
playable discs.
