About DRC (Dynamic Range Compression)  
With the DVD format you have the opportunity to hear a  
program’s soundtrack in the most accurate and realistic  
presentation possible, thanks to the use of digital audio  
technology. However, in certain instances you may wish to  
slightly compress the dynamic range of the audio output  
(the difference between the loudest sounds and the  
quietest ones) so that you may listen to a movie at a lower  
volume without losing dialogue intelligibility.  
Notes  
❏
❏
❏
The DRC function works only during playback of  
Dolby Digital recorded discs.  
The level of Dynamic Range Compression may differ  
depending on the DVD disc.  
When playing karaoke, connect appropriate audio  
equipment (such as an amplifier) to the DVD video  
player.

If you record mp3 files using the software which cannot

track. If there is no mp3 file in the 1st track, it cannot  
playback mp3 files. If you wish to playback mp3 files,  
format all the data in the disc or use a new one.  
❏ If there are already data files which are not mp3 files on  
the CD-R disc, please, do not use that disc; use a new  
one instead. However, if the disc is a CD-RW disc, this  
does not apply.
