players can be played.

system. Note that PAL video signal on a disc is converted to 
the NTSC signal and output. 
For Europe: This unit is compatible with PAL DVDs, and it 
can also play discs recorded with NTSC data. Note that the 
NTSC video signal on the disc is converted to a PAL signal 
for final output.
The Non-DVD side of a “DualDisc” does not comply with the 
“Compact Disc Digital Audio” standard. Therefore, the use 
of Non-DVD side of a DualDisc on this product may not be 
recommended.
On some DVD VIDEOs, VCDs or SVCDs, their actual 
operation may be different from what is explained in this 
manual. This is due to the disc programming and disc 
structure, not a malfunction of this unit.
