This DVD player requires discs/recordings to meet

certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal

playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically

set to these standards. There are many different types

of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing

MP3 or WMA files). That require certain pre-existing

conditions (see above) to insure compatible playback.
