You can play MP3 and still pictures (JPEG) on this unit by making folders as shown below. However depending on how you create the
disc (writing software), play may not be in the order you numbered the folders.
Regarding BD-Video
≥When BD-J application ( ➡ 29, Glossary) is executed, operations may take a little more time than usual. Please wait, there is nothing wrong with
this unit.
≥When playing a set of two BD-Video discs, once the first disc finishes playing, video may continue to display even if playback has been
stopped.
≥If the audio track of the disc was recorded with DTS-HD Master Audio, it will be output as DTS Digital Surround audio.
≥When playing discs recorded with Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD,
–audio will not be output properly (e.g. audio from some speakers cannot be heard) unless the number of connected speakers is the same as
audio channel specification of the disc.
– even if you select “Small” in the speaker settings, audio output will have an effect similar to when “Large” is selected (➡ 23).
Regarding DVD-Audio
Some multi-channel DVD-Audio will prevent down-mixing (➡ 29, Glossary) of all or part of their contents if this is the manufacturer’s intention.
When playing such discs, or such parts of the disc, unless the number of connected speakers is the same as audio channel specification of the
disc, audio will not be output properly (e.g. part of the audio is missing, multi-channel audio cannot be selected and audio is played in two
channels). Refer to the disc’s jacket for more information.
Note about using a DualDisc
The digital audio content side of a DualDisc does not meet the technical specifications of the Compact Disc Digital Audio (CD-DA) format so
play may not be possible.
