Disc Accessories
There are various accessories available on the market for protecting
the disc surface and improving sound quality. However, most of
them will influence the thickness and/or diameter of the disc. Using
such accessories can cause operational problems. We recommend
not using these accessories on discs played in Alpine DVD players.

Flawed discs, discs with fingerprints, discs exposed to extreme

failed or a re-recording was attempted, copy-protected CDs
which do not conform to the audio CD industry standard.

compliant with this unit. For details, see pages 100 and 101.
To customers using CD-R/CD-RW
• If a CD-R/CD-RW cannot be played back, make sure the last
recording session was closed (finalized).
• Finalize the CD-R/CD-RW if necessary, and attempt playback
again.
Tips for making your own discs
The unit plays DVD Video, Video CD, Audio CD and has a built in
MP3/WMA/AAC decoder.
The following information is designed to help you create your own
music CDs (either Audio CD or MP3/WMA/AAC encoded CD-R/
RW files).
What is the difference between an Audio and MP3/WMA/AAC
CD?
An Audio CD is the same format as the commercial CDs you buy in
the store (also known as CD-DA). MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3)/
WMA (Windows Media Audio)/AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) is
a data file that uses a compression scheme to reduce the size of the
music file
*
.
*
If the first session on a disc containing both CD-DA data and
MP3/WMA/AAC data is a CD-DA file, only CD-DA files will be
played.
Multisession CD-R/RW:
Once a recording has been stopped, this is considered one session.
If the disc is not closed (finalized), additional data may be added.
Once this additional data has been recorded, this becomes a
“multisession” CD.
Properly formatted MP3/WMA/AAC Discs:
Use ISO9660 formatting to insure proper playback. You may use
standard ISO naming Level 1 (8.3 DOS standard), Level 2
(32 characters) or Joliet (Windows or Macintosh long filenames) file
naming conventions
