Using the Player Information Menu

The DVD 28’s Player Information menu displays disc information and enables you to program playback modes. Press the Info Button 6 to display the Player Information menu.

The Player Information menu has two submenus which may be accessed by using the KL

Navigation Buttons to highlight the sub- menu’s icon, and pressing the OK Button A to select it. These submenus are different from the Setup menus in that many items are for dis- play only and cannot be changed using the menu system.

PLAYBACK INFO Submenu: This submenu displays basic disc and playback mode informa- tion. You may not make any changes to the items shown in this submenu, except for the Repeat mode.

Disc: This line displays the disc type, such as DVD-Video.

Disc ID: If the disc is encoded with an identifi- cation label, such as a movie title, it will appear here.

Playlist: For DVDs, this line will reflect that playback will occur in the disc’s order. Programmable playlists are not available when a DVD is loaded.

Repeat: This line displays the current repeat mode, or Off if Repeat mode is not active.

PROGRAM submenu: The PROGRAM sub- menu is not accessible for DVDs.

DISC INFO Submenu: This submenu dis- plays detailed information about the disc content. You will not be able to make any changes to the items on this submenu. However, you may use the SETUP menu system as described on page 39 to change the DVD 28 player settings for video aspect ratio or scan type.

Disc: This line displays the disc type.

Disc ID: If the disc is encoded with an identification label, it will appear here.

Aspect Ratio: This line displays the aspect ratio of the video content on the disc, and the format in which it is being played back according to the setting established in the VIDEO SETUP submenu as shown on page 39. Some discs may contain two versions of the same program with a widescreen aspect ratio on one side of the disc, and a standard aspect ratio on the other.

Video Standard: The disc’s format is shown here. For Region 2 players, this will normally be PAL, although some DVDs that are open region (playable in all regions) may be in the NTSC format.

Scan Type: This line displays whether the video program on the DVD was recorded with a progressive or interlaced scan rate. It also displays how the program is being played back, based on the setting established in the VIDEO SETUP submenu as shown on page 39.

Audio Resolution: This line displays the sample rate and bit rate for the current audio format.

Audio Format: This line displays the current audio track, such as Dolby Digital 5.1 or linear PCM.

Video Bit Rate: This line displays the video bit rate up to the limit of 10 Mbps. This indica- tion will vary as a disc is played in response to changes in the amount of compression that was applied to the video signal when the disc was created. Thus, when the disc is stopped or paused, this line will remain blank.

When you have finished viewing the Player menus, press the Info Button 6 to remove the displays from the screen and return to normal play.

Using the On-Screen Status Display

When a DVD is playing, you may press the Status Button B at any time to view a quick summary of the disc’s playback status. The Status Bar not only gives you a snapshot of the unit’s current state; it also provides an easy way to select a different title, chapter or track, or use the time search feature.

Title: This displays the current title on the left, and the total number of titles on the disc on the right.

Chapter: This displays the current chapter on the left, and the total number of chapters on the disc on the right.

Play Mode Icon: This displays the current

play mode icon: e.g. Play B, Pause 1, Stop 0.

Time Display: This section of the display shows the time corresponding to the type of display indicated in the Time Display Type. The Time Search function enables you to start playback at any point in the program. Use the

M N Navigation Buttons to highlight

this display, and the numbers will change to dashes. You may then use the Numeric Keys to enter the numbers corresponding to the time on the disc at which you wish play to commence. Press the OK Button A, and play will immediately begin at the selected time position.

Time Bar: This display is a graphic representa- tion of the time elapsed for the title being played. As the disc plays, the number of bars will increase to reflect approximately what percentage of the title has been played thus far.

Time Display Type: This section identifies the type of information in the Time Display

section of the display. Use the KLM N

Navigation Buttons to select this setting, and each subsequent press of the OK Button A will change the time display from Title Elapsed, to Title Remaining, to Chapter Elapsed to Chapter Remaining, and cycle back to Title Elapsed. The time displayed on screen and in the front-panelInformation Display

will change accordingly.
