Sony DAV-DX355 Manual

Some Super Audio CDs consist of an HD layer 
and a CD layer. You can select the playback 
layer you want to listen to.

Each time you press the button, an HD layer or a 
CD layer is alternately selected. When playing a 
CD layer, “CD” lights up in the front panel 
display.

• Each play mode function works only within the 

selected layer or playback area.

• When you select a CD layer, you cannot change a 

playback area.

• Super Audio CD audio signals are not output from the 

HDMI OUT (high-definition multimedia interface 
out) jack.

MP3 is audio compression technology that 
satisfies the ISO/MPEG regulations. JPEG is 
image compression technology.

You can play back DATA CDs (CD-ROMs/CD-
Rs/CD-RWs) or DATA DVDs (DVD-Rs/DVD-
RWs/DVD+Rs/DVD+RWs/DVD-ROMs) 
recorded in MP3 (MPEG1 Audio Layer 3) or 
JPEG format. However, the DATA CDs must be 
recorded according to ISO 9660 Level 1, Level 
2 or Joliet format and DATA DVDs of Universal 
Disk Format (UDF) for the system to recognize 
the tracks (or files). You can also play discs 
recorded in Multi Session.
See the instructions supplied with the CD-R/
CD-RW or DVD-R/DVD-RW drives and the 
recording software (not supplied) for details on 
the recording format.

If MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image files are 
recorded in the first session, the system will also 
play MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image files in 
other sessions. If audio tracks and images in 
audio CD format or video CD format are 
recorded in the first session, only the first 
session will be played back.

• The system may not be able to play some DATA 

CDs/DATA DVDs created in the Packet Write 
format.

The system can play the MP3 audio tracks or 
JPEG image files:
