Digest Display (for movie DVDs)

This feature allows you to view the opening frame of each Title or Chapter on the disc and then use the ￿￿ / ￿￿ /￿ ￿￿ /￿ ￿ Navigation buttons, or the number buttons, on the remote control to begin playback on any Title or Chapter.

(A word about "Titles". When you buy or rent a DVD movie disc you may think that because there is only one movie on the disc, the disc contains only one title. However most DVD movie discs contain multiple "Titles" even though they contain only one movie. The opening credits may be Title 1, any Coming Attractions or Previews on the disc are also considered "Titles", any Special Features or Bonus Materials included on the disc are also considered as "Titles". And of course, the movie itself is a separate "Title". Some "Titles" contain only one chapter. Longer "Titles" such as the movie itself contain multiple chapters.)

After you have loaded a movie disc and started playback you can press the DIGEST button on the remote control to view the different digest display options. The following window will appear on the TV screen:

Use the ￿￿ /￿ ￿ Navigation buttons to 'highlight' one of the digest display options and then press the ENTER button to select it.

Another window will open and show you the opening frame of the individual Titles or Chapters on the disc. Use the

￿￿/ ￿￿ /￿ ￿￿ /￿ ￿ Navigation buttons to 'highlight' the desired Title or Chapter, or use the number buttons to input the desired Title or Chapter number and the press the ENTER button to begin playback at the selected point.

Note: Only 6 Titles or Chapters can be displayed on the TV screen at one time. If the disc contains more than 6 Titles or Chapters use the ￿ Navigation button to 'highlight' NEXT, and then press the ENTER button to display the additional Titles or Chapters on the TV screen.

To exit the Digest Menu screen at any time select the Exit command on the screen, or press the DIGEST button on the remote control again

To return at any time to the main digest menu screen shown above, select the Menu command on the TV screen.

Digest/Intro-Scan Function (for Audio CDs)

When playing a normal audio CD the DIGEST button performs the same function as an INTRO SCAN button on a CD player. This feature is useful when you are trying to locate a specific song but you cannot remember the title or track number.

Load your CD in the tray and as soon as playback begins press the DIGEST button. The word "SCAN" will appear on your TV screen. The player will back up to the beginning of Track 1 and will play the first 6 seconds of each track on the disc. When you hear the desired song, press the PLAY button to cancel the SCAN function and begin normal playback from that point.
