MEDIA COMPATIBILITY

Disc Formats Supported by This Player

The DMC 1000 can play the following types of prerecorded discs:

The DMC 1000 will also play most recordable discs, but we cannot

guarantee complete playback compatibility, due to the wide variation

in recorders and blank discs.

Round 3" (8cm) or 5" (12cm) discs may be used. Do not use

odd-shaped, noncircular discs.

DVD-Video Disc Compatibility:

• Single-sided or double-sided discs

• Single-layer or dual-layer discs

• Dolby

Digital, DTS

, MPEG or Linear PCM digital audio tracks

• MPEG-2 digital video

• Discs are generally divided into one or more titles, which may be

further subdivided into chapters.

Audio CD Compatibility

• Linear PCM digital audio

• Audio CDs are divided into tracks

CD-R/RW Compatibility

• Linear PCM or MP3 (32kbps – 320kbps) digital audio

• May contain JPEG still images (up to 5 megapixels, file size up to

5MB, limit of approximately 250 files per disc).

• Linear PCM discs are generally divided into tracks like an audio CD.

MP3 and JPEG discs (or discs that contain more than one of these

formats) are divided into files, which may be organized into folders,

depending on how the disc was created.

VCD Compatibility

• Linear PCM, MP1 (MPEG-1, Layer 1) or MP3 (MPEG-1, Layer 3)

digital audio

• MPEG-1 digital video

• May contain JPEG still images (Video CD Version 2.0).

• Some discs may contain menus and chapters, while other discs

simply contain tracks. Version 2.0 discs may offer interactive playback

control (PBC).

• Some SVCD discs may play, depending on how they were recorded.

• CDs containing raw MPEG video files are not part of the VCD format,

and cannot be played on the DMC 1000.

• DVD discs with a Region Code other than 1 or 0

• DVD-ROM data discs

• DVD-RAM discs

NOTES:

• Due to differences in the authoring of DVDs, it is possible that

some discs may include features that are not compatible with

the DMC 1000, and not all discs include every capability of the

DVD system. Example: although the DMC 1000 is compatible

with multiangle discs, that feature is available only with specially

encoded discs. Check the disc jacket to make certain that a

specific feature or soundtrack option is available.

• Playback of CD-R/RW and DVD±R/RW discs created on a

computer requires proper formatting and finalization of the disc.

• The DMC 1000 is compatible with most files encoded using

MP3. However, variations in the encoder or codec used and the

bit rate of the encoding may affect the DMC 1000’s ability to

play a specific file. As a result, we cannot guarantee complete

compatibility with all encoders and versions of the codecs. For

best results, we recommend that MP3 files be encoded at bit

rates ranging between 32kbps and 320kbps.

• JPEG files

should contain no more than 5 mega

pixels, and

the file size should be no larger than 5MB.
