CD-RWs may require some time before they begin to play.
This is because they have a lower reflection index than other

supplied with the CD-R/RW drive.

This product is designed to playback discs that conform to the
Compact Disc (CD) standard. Recently, various music discs encoded
with copyright protection technologies are marketed by some record
companies. Please be aware that among those discs, there are some
that do not conform to the CD standard and may not be playable by
this product.

A DualDisc is a two sided disc product which mates DVD recorded
material on one side with digital audio material on the other side.
However, since the audio material side does not conform to the
Compact Disc (CD) standard, playback on this product is not
guaranteed.
