Disc Accessories Video CDs 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. This DVD unit is compatible with playback control (PBC) compatible video CDs (version 2.0).
On handling compact discs (CD/CD-R/CD-RW) • • • • • • Do not touch the surface. Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight. Do not affix stickers or labels. Clean the disc when it is dusty. Make sure that the disc is smooth and flat. Do not use commercially available disc accessories. Do not leave the disc in the car or the unit for a long time. Never expose the disc to direct sunlight.

About DVDs Music CDs and DVDs have grooves (tracks) in which the digital data is recorded. The data is represented as microscopic pits recorded into the track – these pits are read by a laser beam to play the disc. On DVDs, the density of the tracks and pits is twice that of CDs, so DVDs can contain more data in less space. CDs Minimum pit length 0.9 μm 1.2 mm Track pitch 1.6 μm DVDs Minimum pit length 0.9 μm 0.6 mm 0.6 mm Track pitch 0.
