About audio signals
Audio signals recorded in a disc contain the 
sound elements (channels) shown below. 
Each channel is output from a separate 
speaker.
• Front (L)
• Front (R)
• Centre
• Rear  (L)
• Rear  (R)
• Rear (Monaural): This signal can be either 

the Dolby Surround Sound processed 
signals or the Dolby Digital sound’s 
monaural rear audio signals.

• LFE (Low Frequency Effect) signal

• If “DTS” in “AUDIO SETUP” is set to “OFF,” 

the DTS track selection option will not appear on 
the screen even if the disc contains DTS tracks 
(page 54).

• MPEG audio signals with more than two channels 

will appear as shown above (3/2.1, 2/1), but only 
the Front (L) and Front (R) signals will be output 
from your two front speakers.

When you connect a stereo TV or 2 front 
speakers, TVS (TV Virtual Surround) lets 
you enjoy surround sound effects by using 
sound imaging to create virtual rear speakers 
from the sound of the front speakers (L: left, 
R: right) without using actual rear speakers. 
TVS was developed by Sony to produce 
surround sound for home use using just a 
stereo TV.
If the player is set up to output the signal from 
the DIGITAL OUT (COAXIAL) jack, the 
surround effect will only be heard when 
“DOLBY DIGITAL” is set to “D-PCM” and 
“MPEG” is set to “PCM” in “AUDIO 
SETUP” (page 54).

The following display appears.

See the explanations given for each item 
in the following section.
• TVS DYNAMIC THEATER
• TVS DYNAMIC
• TVS WIDE
• TVS NIGHT
• TVS STANDARD

To cancel the setting
Select “OFF” in step 2.

◆ TVS DYNAMIC THEATER, TVS DYNAMIC, 
TVS WIDE
This mode is effective when the distance 
between the front L and R speakers is short, 
such as with built-in speakers on a stereo TV.
◆ TVS NIGHT
This feature is useful when you want to hear 
the dialogue and enjoy the surround sound 
effects of “TVS WIDE” at low volume.
◆ TVS STANDARD
Use this setting when you want to use TVS 
with 2 separate speakers.

• When the playing signal does not contain a signal 

for the rear speakers, you cannot hear the 
surround effects.

• When you select one of the TVS modes, turn off 

the surround setting of the connected TV or audio 
component.

• Make sure that your listening position is between 

and at an equal distance from your speakers, and 
that the speakers are located in similar 
surroundings.

• Not all discs will respond to the “TVS NIGHT” 

function in the same way.

• The TVS effects do not work when using the Fast 

Play or Slow Play functions, even though you can 
change the TVS modes.

TVS DYNAMIC THEATER

MP3 is audio compression technology that 
satisfies the ISO/IEC MPEG regulations. 
JPEG is image compression technology.
You can play DATA CDs/DATA DVDs that 
contain MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image 
files.

You can play back DATA CDs or DATA 
DVDs recorded in MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio 
Layer III) and JPEG format. 
However, this player only plays DATA CDs 
whose logical format is ISO 9660 Level 1/
Level 2 or Joliet, and DATA DVDs of 
Universal Disk Format (UDF).
Refer to the instructions supplied with the 
disc drives and the recording software (not 
supplied) for details on the recording format.

The player may not be able to play some DATA 
CDs/DATA DVDs created in the Packet Write 
format.

The player can play the following tracks and 
files:
– MP3 audio tracks with the extension 

“.MP3.”

– JPEG image files with the extension 

“.JPEG” or “.JPG.”

– JPEG image files that conform to the DCF* 

image file format.

* “Design rule for Camera File system”: Image 

standards for digital cameras regulated by JEITA 
(Japan Electronics and Information Technology 
Industries Association).

• The player will play any data with the extension 

“.MP3,” “.JPG,” or “.JPEG,” even if they are not 
in MP3 or JPEG format. Playing these data may 
generate a loud noise which could damage your 
speaker system.

• The player does not conform to audio tracks in 

mp3PRO format.

• Some JPEG files cannot be played.
• You cannot play MP3 audio tracks/JPEG image 

files in DATA CDs/DATA DVDs that contain 
DivX video files.

and press 

H, the numbered tracks (or files) 

are played sequentially, from 

1 through 7.

Any sub-albums/tracks (or files) contained 
within a currently selected album take 
priority over the next album in the same tree. 
(Example: 

C contains D so 4 is played 

before

5.)

When you press MENU and the list of album 
names appears (page 43), the album names 
are arranged in the following order:
A t B t C t D t F t G. Albums 
that do not contain tracks (or files) (such as 
album

E) do not appear in the list.

z Hints
• If you add numbers (01, 02, 03, etc.) to the front 

of the track/file names when you store the tracks 
(or files) in a disc, the tracks and files will be 
played in that order.

• Since a disc with many trees takes longer to start 

playback, it is recommended that you create 
albums with no more than two trees.

• Depending on the software you use to create the 

DATA CD/DATA DVD, the playback order may 
differ from the above illustration.

• The playback order above may not be applicable 

if there are more than 200 albums and 300 tracks/
files in each album.

• The player can recognize up to 200 albums (the 

player will count just albums, including albums 
that do not contain MP3 audio tracks and JPEG 
image files). The player will not play any albums 
beyond the 200th album.

• Proceeding to the next or another album may take 

some time.

You can play MP3 audio tracks and JPEG 
image files on DATA CDs or DATA DVDs.

z Hint
You can view the disc information while playing 
MP3 audio tracks (page 23).

• DATA CDs recorded in KODAK Picture CD 

format automatically start playing when inserted.

• If no MP3 audio track or JPEG image file is 

recorded on the DATA CD/DATA DVD, “No

on this player is subject to certain conditions:
– With DATA CDs/DATA DVDs that

whose logical format is ISO 9660 Level 1/
Level 2 or Joliet, and DATA DVDs of 
Universal Disk Format (UDF).
Refer to the instructions supplied with the 
disc drives and the recording software (not 
supplied) for details on the recording format.

About playback order of data on DATA CDs 
or DATA DVDs
See “About playback order of albums, tracks, 
and files” (page 41). Note that the playback 
order may not be applicable, depending on 
the software used for creating the DivX video 
file, or if there are more than 200 albums and 
600 DivX video files in each album.

The player may not be able to play some DATA 
CDs/DATA DVDs created in the Packet Write 
format.

The player can play data that is recorded in 
DivX format, and which has the extension 
“.AVI” or “.DIVX.” The player will not play 
files with the extension “.AVI” or “.DIVX”  if 
they do not contain a DivX video.
