Using a DVD’s Menu
One of the unique features of the DVD system is that it offers a producer the opportunity to include a wide range of features on a disc, including multiple- language tracks; subtitles in a variety of languages; special information such as movie trailers and cast information; as well as other customized information. In addition, producers may divide a movie or program into chapters that allow for quick access to specific parts of the program. These chapters may be accompanied by thumbnail pictures of a scene from the specific chapter to help you select the desired spot on the disc.
When a disc is playing, press the Disc Menu Button
Oto pause the playback and display the disc’s menu. As there are no hard rules about style and contents for DVD menus, the way they appear on the screen and the information they contain will vary from one disc to another. However, the following general rules apply to most menus:
•You may move through the options on a menu with the M NKLNavigation Buttons 4, as the disc’s programming allows. The option selected will typically be highlighted in a certain color or inside an outline box.
•To select a highlighted option, which may either play a portion of the disc or move to a submenu, press the Enter Button y or the Play Button 27.
•On some discs, when you select the DVD menu during the playback of a movie, the disc will return to the point in the program where the menu was selected by offering a “Play Movie” option. Press the Enter Button y or Play Button 27 to resume play. However, not all discs offer this feature, and selecting the menu while playing a movie may mean that you will either have to go back to the beginning of the program or the start of a chapter. This feature is out of the control of the DVD 22, as it is set by the disc’s internal programming.
Important Notes on DVD Playback
The DVD 22 is capable of all the features and options covered by the DVD standards. However, it is up to the producer of a DVD disc to decide which of those features and functions are available on any given disc. For that reason, not all discs will function identically, and some discs will not have many of the features of the DVD system. For example, most current DVD discs do not take advantage of the

In addition, it is common for the producers of DVD discs to block the use of certain functions during only some parts of a disc. For example, many discs prohibit the use of

or the inability of certain features to operate when the disc itself has prohibited them, does not indicate a problem with the DVD 22, as these features are outside of the unit’s control.
