Operating the DVD600II DVD Changer

•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

or Play/Pause Button 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 DVD600II, as it is set by the disc’s internal programming.

•Some DVD discs also feature a Chapter Selection menu. Press the Title Button x to proceed directly to the disc’s Chapter Selection option.

IMPORTANT NOTES

ON DVD PLAYBACK

Due to the nature of this product category, DVD players, while being operated at elevated tem- peratures, may exhibit certain anomalies such as picture freeze-ups. If this occurs, the DVD600II needs to be “reset” by powering it down and up again, using its master On/Off switch. Should this occur with your DVD600II, first check your discs for any damage, scratches and fingerprints. If discs are OK, then ventilation around the DVD600II needs to be increased to ensure proper operation.

The DVD600II 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 avail- able 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 multiple-angle fea- ture. When the player displays the “Feature Prohibited” icon “ ”, this indicates that the disc has not been programmed for that feature.

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 fast-play buttons or prohibit access to the Chapter Menu display during the playback of copyright notices, studio logos, movie credits or trailers. The appearance of the “Feature Prohibited” icon “ ”, or the inability of certain features to operate when the disc itself has prohibited them, does not indi- cate a problem with the DVD600II, as these fea- tures are outside of the unit’s control.

Using the Menu Bar

The DVD600II is equipped with a powerful on-

58

Selecting Titles and Chapters

Some discs contain more than one title. Remember that a disc may contain one title or two separate program titles, or the disc may use the Title function to separate the special feature sections or audio tracks on the disc. The use of titles is optional with the producer of each DVD disc, as is the way in which he/she may choose to implement the feature. You may directly access any chapter while the disc is playing or in Pause mode simply by entering its number using the remote.

To change the title on those discs using the Menu Status Bar, follow these steps:

1.During disc playback, press the Status Button e.

2.If needed, press the ‹/ › Buttons ` until the disc icon for the current title, with the letter “T” underneath it, is highlighted in white between yellow brackets.

3.Press the Enter Button .

4.Note that the number to the right of the “T” will be replaced with two dashes (– –).

5.Use the Numeric Keys – to enter the number of the title to be accessed.

6.The desired title will automatically be started.

Titles may also be selected during the playback of a DVD by pressing the Title Button x. However, the action of the disc when pressing this button will vary from disc to disc. On occa- sion, pressing this button will take you to the disc’s main menu while, in other cases, pressing this button will result in no action at all.

The movies or programs on most discs are divided into individual chapters, as selected by the disc’s producer. Using the on-screen Menu Bar, you may view the number of the current chapter and move to any chapter on the disc.

To change the chapter using the Menu Status Bar, follow these steps:

1.During disc playback, press the Status Button e.

2.Press the ‹/› Buttons ` until the icon showing a disc and a file folder (second from left), with the letter “C” beneath it, is highlighted in white between yellow brackets.
