Currently, the motion picture industry has divided the world intodifferent regions or zones that correspond to the regional markets into which themotion picture industry releases movies. Simply put, RPC codes are placed on moviesmarketed throughout the world, based on the region of the world in which they arebeing sold. These RPC codes help control and prevent pirating of new movies intoother motion picture regions prior to their true release dates within those markets.The SM-332 COMBO drive supports RPC phase II. In the RPC-2 mode, the localcode can be changed by users.RPC-2 is selected by default for the SM-332 COMBO drive.You can change the region code up to five times via an MPEG application.Please contact your dealer or local SAMSUNG representative if you wish to changethe local code more than five times.

However, if the buffer becomes empty temporarily,this may cause errors in recording data.What is Auto-Run?If inserting a CD into a drive, the operating system executes the Autorun.inf fileof the CD automatically.Term DescriptionImportant!Please read the entire DMA installation guide before installing your COMBO drive.About DMA InstallationFor stable writing performance at high speeds, Installation of DMA transfer mode forE-IDE/ATAPI interface is strongly recommended. We recommend DMA mode for fast writing.DMA SettingBefore you install your COMBO drive, we recommend to set DMA to enabled on yourPC system. See the following procedure to set DMA transfer mode in windowsoprerating system. (Windows 95 OSR2/98/ME)14Caution with errorsEvery CD-R or CD-RW drive records data by applying recording laser onto a CD.If the CD is damaged or recording data is not possible, you need to remove thefollowing causes of the error before using the CD.It is recommended to set a CD-R or CD-RW drive as follows.1Do not work on a multi-tasking environment and remove screen savers.If you work on a multi-tasking environment while the CD-RW driveis recording/deleting data, Buffer Under-Run may occur.2Do not allow any external access to the Host PC while recording data.If another user accesses your printer through a network while you arerecording data, errors may occur.5Use an E-IDE cable, which has the specified length (46cm).Using E-IDE cables longer than 46cm may cause errors during data transaction.3Remove the Auto-Run function of the CD.If you insert a CD that has the Auto-Run function to a drive connected to aPC while recording/deleting data, this may cause errors.How to cancel (select) the Auto-Run functionCancel (Select) the Auto-Run function in [Start > Setting > Control Panel >System > Device Manager > CD-ROM Setting]6Use only one recording software program.To install a software program for recording, uninstall any other types or versionsof recording software programs first and then reboot the computer.Make sure you use the recording software CD (Nero Burning Rom /Roxio Easy CD Creator) provided by us. Using our software program withothers may cause errors in recording.4Use image files when you record many small files.If you use a lot of small size files for recording, this may reduce the transactionrate of the PC. Although Justlink function is often run, the recording qualitymay become low.If you copy a CD from another, you do not require making available space in thehard disk. However, when you use image files, you need to copy them on the harddisk first and then copy to a CD. In this case, you need to ensure maximum 700MBof available space in the hard disk for reliable recording process.Not compatible with Windows 95 in case of Roxio Software.
