Playing discs

•Some DVD discs restrict the use of some functions (random or repeat, for example). This is not a malfunction.

•When playing Video CDs, some of the functions are not available during PBC playback. If you want to use them, start the disc playing using a number button to select a track.

•Many features are not available when using unfinalized CD-R/RW discs.

Playing only CDs and WMA/ MP3 discs (CD mode)

Using this feature you can play only the CDs and WMA/MP3 discs loaded in the disc tray— automatically skipping over any DVDs and Video CDs loaded. This may be useful if you have a mixture of discs loaded but only want to play music: you don't have to keep track of what kind of disc is where in the disc tray.

1Press CD MODE (SHIFT + DISC SKIP) to switch CD mode on.

•The indicator on the front panel lights when CD mode is on.

2 Press (play) to start playback.

The first CD loaded automatically starts to play.

Once all the CD/WMA/MP3 discs loaded have played, playback automatically stops.

•To cancel the CD mode, press CD MODE (SHIFT + DISC SKIP) again.

•If you open the disc tray and load a DVD, Video CD or JPEG disc in the front-most

position then press (play) (on the front panel), CD mode is canceled.

•You can't switch on CD mode while playing a DVD or Video CD. Stop playback first.

•Although program play is not possible in CD mode, it is possible to program a playlist. When you start program play-back, however, CD mode is canceled.

•Repeat and random play is possible in CD mode (see Using repeat play on page 45 and Using random play on page 46).

Scanning discs

You can fast-scan discs forward or backward at various different speeds.

1 During playback, press	or	to
start scanning.

•There is no sound while scanning DVDs and Video CDs, and no subtitles while scanning DVDs.

2Press repeatedly to increase the scanning speed.

•The scanning speed is shown on-screen.

3 To resume playback, press (play).

•When scanning a Video CD or a WMA/MP3 track, playback automatically resumes at the end or beginning of the track.

•Depending on the disc, normal playback may automatically resume when a new chapter is reached on a DVD disc.

Playing in slow motion

You can play DVDs and Video CDs at four different forward slow motion speeds. DVD discs can also be played at two reverse speeds.
