About playback of discs recorded in AVCHD format This player can play AVCHD format discs. TM What is the AVCHD format? The AVCHD format is a high-definition digital video camera format used to record SD (standard definition) or HD (high definition) signals of either the 1080i specification*1 or the 720p specification*2 on DVDs, using efficient data compression coding technology. The MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format is adopted to compress video data, and the Dolby Digital or Linear PCM system is used to compress audio data. The MPEG-4 AVC/ H.264 format is capable of compressing images at higher efficiency than that of the conventional image compressing format. The MPEG-4 AVC/ H.264 format enables a high definition (HD) video signal shot on a digital video camera recorder to be recorded on DVD discs, in the same way as it would be for a standard definition (SD) television signal. *1 A high-definition specification which utilizes 1080 effective scanning lines and the interlace system. *2 A high-definition specification which utilizes 720 effective scanning lines and the progressive system. b • Some AVCHD format discs may not play, depending on the recording condition. • The AVCHD format disc will not play if it has not been correctly finalized. 60
