This is a CD with recorded moving images. By compressing the video information to 1/120 and the audio information to
1/6, recording of up to 74 min is possible on discs with the same 12 cm diameter as general audio CDs.
Two types of discs are being marketed (without PBC) for simple playback and (with PBC) with menus and special play-
back (playback control). This unit can be used for playback of VIDEO CDs of both types.

This unit can play CD-DA (8cm, 12cm), VCD, finalized CD-R, disc media of MP3 files on which have been
finalized or containing a closed session, and the audio part of CD-G/CD-EG (CD graphics) discs and CDV

MP3 files
÷ This unit cannot play back a CD-R which has not been finalized.
÷ This unit cannot play other data than audio signal data, such as data signal in a CD-ROM. When a disc containing
various data, for example a CD Graphic or CD-TEXT is loaded in the unit, the unit cannot play other data than the
audio signal data.
CD-R
The CD-R records digital data of music CD or other source without compression so it can be played back
at equivalent high quality to commercially marketed CDs.
In addition to the above, this unit may also be incapable of playing certain CD-R discs depending on the recording
characteristics of recording equipment (including the pickup), properties of the CD-R in use, its recording condition
and so on.
÷ Check to ascertain that MP3 files can be played back correctly on the personal computer in use prior to saving them
onto the media.
÷ Check to ensure that the saved file can be played back normally.
÷ MP3 files on which the session has not be closed or finalized can not be played back with this unit.
÷ There are cases where playback is not possible when MP3 files and music CD information (CD-DA) are saved on
the same media.
