DVD Region Protection Coding (RPC):

The RPC feature is supported on DVD players and is used with DVD-video
discs (such as movies). Currently, the motion picture industry has divided
the world into different regions or zones that correspond to the regional
markets into which the motion picture industry releases movies. Simply put,
RPC codes are placed on movies marketed throughout the world, based on
the region of the world in which they are being sold. These RPC codes help
control and prevent pirating of new movies into other motion picture regions
prior to their true release dates within those markets.

The SM-308 COMBO drive supports RPC phase II. In the RPC-2 mode,
the local code can be changed by users. RPC-2 is selected by default
for the SM-308 COMBO drive. You can change the region code up to
five times via an MPEG application.

Please contact your dealer or local SAMSUNG representative if you
wish to change the local code more than five times.

Clean the source CD, if necessary.

Create an image file and then copy the image file to the COMBO drive.

Check the CD-ROM drive record speed.

There are two recording methods :

Low-speed (file by file)

High-speed (transfer of an image file from the hard disc)

If the transfer speed of the CD-ROM drive is slower than the record speed,
reduce the record speed.

1

Before starting to record, determine the audio and transfer speeds by using
the [Tool/System Test] option in Easy CD Creator. Then, choose an
appropriate record speed. If the audio speed is less than 2X, first create an
image file on the hard disc.

2

To perform a record test before copying to a CD, select the [Test/Copy]
option.

3

If the test fails, try recording on another disc.

The COMBO drive does not support high-speed recording to CD-RW discs
above 8X. Discs above CD-RW 8X use different rewriting methods and can
only be read via the COMBO drive.
