BOOKMARKS

SETTING BOOKMARKS

It is possible to ‘bookmark’ up to three points on a DVD title, so you can jump quickly to those parts of the title in the future. Bookmarks for up to 100 discs can be stored: when this limit is exceeded, new bookmarks will overwrite those set earlier. Note that double-sided discs are treated as two separate discs for the purposes of setting and clearing bookmarks.

To set a bookmark, wait until the film has played nearly to the point you wish to mark, and press MEM. The bookmark menu is superimposed on the picture:

M a r k e r s :				0 : 0 1 : 2 2
M a r k 1		:	- :- -	: - -
M a r k	2	:	- :- -	: - -
M a r k	3	:	- :- -	: - -

The time field for ‘Mark 1’ is highlighted. At the exact moment you wish to mark, press OK. Bookmark 1 has now been set.

M a r k e r s : 0 : 1 5 : 2 0

M a r k 1 : 0 : 1 5 : 2 0

M a r k 2 : - :- - :- -

M a r k 3 : - :- - :- -

To close the bookmark menu, press MEM again.

Alternatively you may set bookmarks 2 and 3 on the same disc by highlighting the appropriate time field and marking the position(s) by pressing OK.To close the bookmark menu, press MEM as before.

JUMPING TO BOOKMARK POSITIONS

If a disc has bookmarks set, you can jump quickly to those points using the ‘Bookmark’ menu. Press MEM to open the menu:

M a r k e r s : 0 : 3 5 : 1 2

M a r k 1 : 0 : 1 5 : 2 0

M a r k 2 : - :- - :- -

M a r k 3 : - :- - :- -

Highlight the bookmark using the cursor pad, and press OK.The menu closes and the player jumps straight to the bookmark position.

CLEARING BOOKMARKS

It may be necessary to clear bookmarks if you have used the three markers on a particular disc and now wish to mark different points on the DVD, or if you have set bookmarks for 100 discs and wish to set new bookmarks without overwriting others.You will need to clear all the markers from a disc in order to release any space.

To clear a bookmark, open the bookmark menu by pressing MEM. Highlight the bookmark you wish to clear using the cursor pad and press CLEAR on the remote control.
