DVD Region Codes
The Blu-ray Disc 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. DVD Audio Support
When a DVD-Audio disc is inserted in the Blu-ray Disc
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 Blu-ray Disc 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 (either pressed or re-
corded) are not supported.

If you record a disc using a personal computer, there may
be cases where the Blu-ray Disc 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 UDF, HFS, or others) are not
supported.
• 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.
If you are still having trouble writing a disc that is
playable in the Blu-ray Disc player, check with the disc
recording software publisher for more information about
burning playable discs.
The recommended method for labeling 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, become stuck, and cause permanent damage to the
DVD player.
Compressed Audio Files (MP3 and WMA)
The Blu-ray Disc 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).

UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 419

•The Blu-ray Disc player always uses the file extension
to determine the audio format, so MP3 files must
always end with the extension .mp3or.MP3 and
WMA files must always end with the extension .wma
or .WMA. To prevent incorrect 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 down-
loaded from many online music stores) will not play.
The Blu-ray 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 Blu-ray
player will automatically skip the file and begin play-
ing 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
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
Blu-ray Disc player ’s button to advance to the next
file, or the button to return to the start of the current
or previous file.
Disc Errors
If the Blu-ray Disc player is unable to read the disc, a
Disc Error message is displayed on the rear screen and
Radio displays. A dirty, damaged, or incompatible disc
format are all potential causes for a Disc Errormessage.
If a disc has a damaged track which results in audible or
visible errors that persists for two seconds, the Blu-ray
420 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL

Disc player will attempt to continue playing the disc by
skipping forward one to three seconds at a time. If the
end of the disc is reached, the Blu-ray Disc player will
return to the beginning of the disc and attempt to play
the start of the first track.
The Blu-ray Disc player may shut down during ex-
tremely hot conditions, such as when the vehicle’s inte-
rior temperature is above 120° F (48.9° C). When this
occurs, the player will displayHigh Tempand will shut
off the Rear Seat displays until a safe temperature is
reached. This shutdown is necessary to protect the optics
of the Blu-ray Disc player.
