Supported Discs

The DPC-8.5 supports the following discs.

• The DPC-8.5 will play only Region 1 NTSC

DVD-Video discs.

• Some audio CDs feature copy protection that doesn’t

conform to the official CD standard. Since these are
nonstandard discs, they may not play properly on the
DPC-8.5.

• The DPC-8.5 supports CD-R and CD-RW discs

recorded in Video CD format, audio CD format, or
ISO9660 Level 2 format with MP3 and JPEG files. It
also supports DVD-R and DVD-RW discs recorded in
DVD-Video or DVD-Audio format. However, some
CD-R/RW and DVD-R/RW discs may not work prop-
erly for any of the following reasons: incomplete disc
finalization, disc burner characteristics, disc charac-
teristics, the disc is damaged or dirty. See the manual
supplied with your disc burner for more information.
Condensation or dirt on the optical pickup lens can
also affect playback.

• The DPC-8.5 cannot play DVD-VR discs recorded

with

Copy Once

permission.

• The DPC-8.5 does not support disc types not listed.
• The DPC-8.5 supports 8 cm and 12 cm discs.
• Don’t use discs with an unusual shape, such as those

shown below, because you may damage the DPC-8.5.

• Don’t use discs that have residue from adhesive tape,

rental discs with peeling labels, or discs with custom-
made labels or stickers. Doing so may damage the
DPC-8.5 and you may not be able to remove the disc
properly.

DVD Region Numbers

The DPC-8.5 supports only Region 1 DVD-Video
discs bearing this logo.

If you attempt to play a disc intended for another region,
a message saying that the disc cannot be played appears.

Function Support

The following icons are used throughout this manual to
indicate which discs can be used with each function.

Unsupported DVD Features

The DVD standard offers many special fea-
tures, including multiple soundtracks, subti-
tles, camera angles, and so on. However, not all
discs use all of these features. When you
attempt to use a feature that is not used by the current
disc, for example, you press the remote controller’s
[Audio] button while playing a disc with only one
soundtrack, this icon will appear onscreen, indicating
that the feature is not supported by the current disc.

Similarly, if a disc uses features that are not
supported by the DPC-8.5, for example, spe-
cial interactive menu functions, this icon will
appear onscreen, indicating that the feature is
not supported by the DPC-8.5.

Video CDs

The DPC-8.5 supports Version 1.1 and Version 2.0 of the
Video CD standard. Version 2.0 supports PBC (Playback
Control).

Video CD (Version 1.1)

On the DPC-8.5, the contents of Video CDs that con-
form to Version 1.1 of the Video CD standard are han-
dled as tracks.

Video CD with PBC (Version 2.0)

In addition to the functions supported by Version 1.1,
Version 2.0 offers playback control via interactive
menus and search functions. Note that the DPC-8.5
doesn’t support all PBC functions.
