Playing a Video DVDBefore you play your first DVD

This section tells you how to use the DVD player in your system to play video DVDs. Before you play your first DVD, make note of the following:

•Make sure that you are familiar with the functions of the remote control buttons (see “The remote control” on page 7). Although some remote control buttons look the same as those found on a VCR or CD player remote, their functions are different.

•In order for some system features to work, the DVDs that you play must be encoded with the information for that feature. For example, in order to display subtitles while watching a movie, the disc must contain subtitle information.

•Both the DVD player in your system and the discs you play are coded by region. In order for a disc to play, these region codes must match. Check the label on the media center or on the shipping carton for your player’s region code.
