ence a disc compatibility problem, contact RCA Customer Support.

Note: Some content providers may use an Image Constraint Token (ICT) for HD DVD movie titles played

through an analog connection. An ICT constrains the picture to half the resolution of a full HD picture. If

an ICT is used, the content provider is required to put a warning label on the disc to let consumers know of

the limitation.
