Because of differences in the many MP3 and WMA encoders available, we recommend that you conduct a test recording before transferring large numbers of MP3 files to CD-R or CD-RW for subsequent playback on the DV89.

13Track(s) on this disc.

Enter title number.

Press PROG on the remote control to open the ‘Programme’ menu. Playback must be stopped first.

The bottom of the screen shows the number of tracks present on the disc. Below this is an information line, giving relevant information for the cursor position.

You can enter a sequence of up to 20 tracks for programmed playback. If you enter data that is invalid for the current disc, the field will be erased automatically.

To program the player, highlight the first entry (using the cursor pad on the remote control), then press the number of the track you want to play first. To enter a second track, move down, then type the number of the second track to play, etc. To enter a track number greater than 9, press the two digits sequentially (e.g., for track 10, first press 1, then press 0).

To play the programme you have entered, highlight the PLAY button on the screen and press OK. The ‘PROG’ indicator shows on the front panel display and the programmed sequence begins.

If you make a mistake while programming, you can clear a single field by highlighting it and pressing CLEAR. To clear all the fields at once, highlight the ‘CLEAR ALL’ button on the screen and press OK.

To stop the programmed sequence and return to normal playback, select the ‘PLAY’ button in the programme menu with no programme specified. This clears programme mode and causes normal playback order to be resumed.

Note that in programmed playback mode, skipping track forward or back skips forward or back through the programmed sequence.

The player returns to ‘Browse’ mode if no programme has been entered when PROG is pressed for a second time.

Programmed playback (CD-ROM)

Pressing the PROG button on the remote control stops playback (if active) and changes the player mode to ‘Programme’ mode (as indicated at point (2)).

Navigating the directory tree is the same as described earlier for ‘Browse’ mode. Files from any location on the disc may be added to the playlist by moving the cursor to the file, then pressing OK on the remote control. Files that are present in the playlist are shown with a light blue highlight.

To remove a file from the playlist, move the cursor to the file and press OK. The blue highlight disappears from the file, indicating that the file is no longer in the playlist. To remove all files from the playlist, press CLEAR on the remote control.

When you have entered the programme to your satisfaction, press the PROG button again. This changes the display to show the programmed list (‘Playlist’ mode) and playback starts automatically.

Playback can be stopped and started using the STOP and PLAY keys, as normal. To stop the programmed sequence and return to normal playback, press the PROG button for a third time; this stops playback and changes the player to ‘Browse’ mode.

Shuffle and Repeat

Note that this section is valid for audio-CDs only.

Repeat

Press the RPT button on the remote control to cycle throught the repeat options. ‘Track’ or ‘Disc’ (i.e. all) repeat are available.

When a track repeat is selected, the loop symbol on the front panel display is illuminated and the current track is repeated. If a disc repeat is selected, the loop symbol and ‘ALL’ are illuminated and the entire disc is repeated.

To cancel repeat, press the RPT button until the Repeat symbols on the front panel display are no longer illuminated.

Shuffle

Press the P MODE button on the remote control to activate shuffle play.

The ‘RAND’ (random play) indicator shows on the display, and the tracks are played in random order.

To cancel random play, press the P MODE button for a second time.

Note that Repeat and Shuffle cannot be set at the same time.

NOTE: If a programmed sequence is shuffled using the P MODE button on the remote control, pressing P MODE again will not ‘unshuffle’ the programme.
