compatibility
For a
DVD
disc
to
be compatible with a player, their respective region numbers must match.
These numbers are assigned by the geographic region where the player and disc are sold.
You
can find the region number for your system on the bottom
of
the media center.
If you have trouble playing a
DVD
disc, check to see if the region number marked
~.
on the disc label
or
packaging matches the region number
of
your system. A
DVD
and media center marked for use
in
Region 1 should display the symbol at right.
