Slide Shows

The DVD280 offers the capability of viewing a “slide show” of images while playing audio simultaneously. You may have noticed that if you insert a disc containing JPEG files, the DVD280 will automatically display the images in order, each image remaining on-screen for about 15 seconds. If you insert a disc that contains both JPEG images and MP3 audio files, the DVD280 will play the audio files while displaying the images. However, if the disc contains WMA and JPEG files, you will only be able to access either the audio or the image files at any one time, using the method described below.

You may control this function using the Player Menu. Press the Setup

Button and select the Player Menu. You will observe two icons on the lower left, Audio and Picture, both active (see Figure 61).

	To play the audio files without view-
	ing the images, stop play and move
	the cursor to the Picture icon and
	deactivate it (see Figure 62). To view
34	the images without hearing the audio

files, move the cursor to the Audio icon and deactivate it (see Figure 63). One icon will always be active.

You may change the amount of time each image remains on-screen at the Picture line in the upper portion of the screen. The Picture line is only visible when the Picture icon has been activated. You may select an on-screen time of 15, 30 or 45 sec- onds, or you may have the image remain on-screen for the duration the audio track is playing (see Figure 64).

The setting will remain in effect until you stop play of the disc. You may also scroll forward and backward through the image files on the disc using the Pic+ y and Pic– x buttons on the remote.

NOTE: When creating discs contain- ing MP3, WMA and/or JPEG files, it is important to create the disc in one session. You may be able to accom- plish this either by adding all desired files to the disc at one sitting, or by making sure not to finalize the disc before adding additional files. If you don’t finalize the disc, the DVD280 will

not be able to recognize or play any of the files until the disc is finalized; but if you do finalize the disc and add additional files later, although the files may be recognized by your PC, the DVD280 may not recognize the files added in the later session.

Using the Status Bar Display

The Status Bar provides an abbreviated snapshot of the status of the disc cur- rently playing. It appears across the top of the screen, unlike the Player Menu, which takes up the entire screen. The Status Bar displays the current title, the chapter or track, the play mode and the time elapsed or remaining. To see the Status Bar Display, press the Status

Button on the remote while a disc is playing. Use the Navigation

⁄/¤/‹/› Buttons 57 to move through the different features (see Figure 65).

Figure 65

NOTE: When a CD, WMA or MP3 disc is playing, the Status Bar will not be available. Instead, the Player Menu of the on-screen menu system will appear on-screen. (See page 31 for more information on using the Player Menu.)

For DVD-Video discs, the current Title and Chapter numbers will appear (see Figure 66).

Figure 66

Move the cursor to highlight any of these numbers and press the Enter Button 8 to select a different track, title or chapter (see Figure 67).

Figure 67

For JPEG discs, the File Index number and File Name will be displayed; how- ever, you will not be able to change them (see Figure 68).
