The disc menu language is not the correct one.
The disc menu language has not been set up. The language of your choice is not available on the disc.
Audio CDs Audio CDs (8 and 12 cm). CD-R, CD-RW Most CD-R (one recording only) and CD-RW discs (rewritable). This player can play most CD-R discs. CD-Rs written during a multisession recording can also be played, provided that the session has ended before the disc is played (depending on the write software). However, depending on the condition of the CD-writer, computer and the disc used, you may find that not all discs will play successfully.When playing a CD-R disc, it is completely normal for the unit to take up to 20 seconds to recognise the disc before starting to play. If the disc is not recognised after a period of 20 seconds, remove the disc, and then insert it again. Irrespective of the actual recording capacity of the CD-R, do not use its full capacity. CD-Rs should be preferably used instead of CD-RWs (rewritable CDs) as, in certain cases, CD-RW playback may be faulty. Use reliable, good-quality CD write software. Close all other applications on the computer to ensure reliable CD-R disc recording. DivX files DivX is the name of a revolutionary new video codec which is based on the new MPEG-4 compression standard for video.Whether DivX files play correctly on your player or not depends on the preparation and production of the audio and video files,the codecs and the type of recording equipment used,as well as on your computers parameters.It is therefore possible that you cannot play a DivX file or that part or all of it is defective.It also sometimes happens that you can play the images (video) but not the sound (audio). DivX disc compatibility with this player is limited as follows:The maximum resolution of the DivX file is below 720x576 (W x H) pixels. DivX filenames should not exceed 56 characters. If the video and audio structure of the recorded file is not interleaved,either video or audio is outputted. If the file is recorded with GMC,the unit supports only 1-point GMC.GMC is the acronym for Global Motion Compensation.It is an encoding tool specified in the MPEG4 standard.Some MPEG4 encoders,like DivX or XviD,have this option.There are different levels of GMC encoding,usually called 1-point,2-point,or 3-point GMC. DivX files with subtitles in.SRT,.SUB and.SMI formats can be played.Correct playback of all languages may not be possible as some characters may be missing. mp3 files CD-R and CD-RW discs containing audio files in mp3 format.With regard to CD-R mp3 discs, please follow all the recommendations for CD-R above, along with the comments below: Your mp3 files should be ISO 9660 or JOLIET format. ISO 9660 format and Joliet mp3 files are compatible with Microsoft DOS and Windows, as well as with Apple Mac.These two formats are the most widely used. mp3 filenames should not exceed 8 characters and should end with the.mp3 extension. General name format:Title.mp3.When composing your title ensure that you use 8 characters or less, have no spaces in the name, and avoid the use of special characters including (. , / , \ , = ,+). The total number of files on a disc should be less than 999.The total number of folders should be less than 499. Use a decompression transfer rate of at least 128 kB/sec (kilobytes/second) when recording mp3 files. Sound quality with mp3 files basically depends on the rate of compression/ decompression you choose. Obtaining audio CD quality sound requires an analogue/digital sampling rate, that is conversion to mp3 format, of at least 128 kB/sec and up to 160 kB/sec. Choosing higher rates, such as 192 kB/sec or more, only rarely produces even better sound quality. Conversely, files with sampling rates below 128 kB/sec will not play properly. Do not try recording copyright-protected mp3 files.Securized files are encrypted and code-protected to prevent illegal copying.You must not copy such files. WMA (Windows Media Audio) files CD-R with WMA files. WMA filenames should not exceed 8 characters,and should end with the.wma extension.General name format:Title.wma.When composing your title ensure that you use 8 characters or less,have no spaces in the name,and avoid the use of special characters including (.,/,\,=,+). The total number of files on a disc should be less than 999.

Windows Media and the Windows logo are trademarks or registered trademarks of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and/or other countries. Important:The above recommendations cannot be taken as a guarantee that the DVD player will play mp3 or WMA recordings, or as an assurance of sound quality.You should note that certain technologies and methods for mp3 file recording on CD-Rs prevent optimal playback of these files on your DVD player (i.e. degraded sound quality and even, in some cases, inability of the player to read the file).
You have forgotten your password (Parental control).

Inserting batteries in the remote control Insert two LR06 or AA batteries in the remote control.
Do not mix different types of batteries or new and old batteries. Do not use rechargeable batteries. In order to avoid any risk of explosion, observe the polarities indicated inside the battery compartment. Replace only with the type of batteries specified above. Do not dispose of them in a fire or recharge them. If you are not using the remote control for a long period of time, remove the batteries. Please respect the environment and prevailing regulations. Before you dispose of batteries or accumulators, ask your dealer whether they are subject to special recycling and if they will accept them for disposal.
Optical and coaxial Out sockets The digital sound from a Video DVD in playback is permanently available at the optical and coaxial sockets on your player. Use one of these sockets by connecting it to a decoder or a DTS or Dolby Digital amplifier. Some of these appliances are equipped with a coaxial In socket (COAXIAL) or an optical In socket (OPTICAL), while others are equipped with both sockets. Choose one of the two connections. 1
Note: In most cases these two types of connection give similar results; the only difference lies in the type of cable used and the cost of these cables, the coaxial cable being the least expensive one to buy. However it sometimes happens that some coaxial cables are parasitised by high frequency interference caused by household electrical appliances, high voltage electric cables or radio transmitters. Note : when connecting the optical audio digital cable: 1. Remove the protection cap from the connector and connect it firmly as shown on the drawing. 2. Keep the protection cap and always reattach the cap when the connector is not in use, to keep it dustfree.
