Basic Operation
Skipping indexes in DVD AUDIO
DVD AUDIO tracks contain the recording of indexes. The
following operation makes it possible to skip the
currently played track index and restart playback from
the next index.
Press the INDEX or INDEX 5 button during play-
back. The same number of indexes as the number of
times the button is pressed can be skipped.
Indexes in the direction corresponding to the
pressed button are skipped and the destination
index is played back from the beginning.
The display shows the index number.
Switching still pictures of DVD AUDIO
When a DVD AUDIO (AOTT: Audio Only Title) disc
containing the recording of still pictures is played, the
still pictures can be displayed. (The operation may be
restricted with certain discs.)
To switch the still pictures, press the PAGE or PAGE
5 button on the remote during playback.
Press the RETURN button to switch to the home
still picture.
Switching the sequential play mode
The player is capable of sequential playback using the 5-
disc carousel disc changer. If a DVD and/or VCD is mixed
in the discs to be played sequentially, the sequential
playback may stall in the middle while the menu remains
displayed. In such a case, switch the sequential play mode
of the player.
Set the sequential play mode of the player to "SEQ.2"
using the remote as described below. The DVD VIDEO
playback will be skipped in order not to interrupt the
sequential playback.
When playing a VCD with menu playback or playing a
DVD VIDEO, set the sequential play mode of the player
to "SEQ.1".
1. Set the player to normal play mode
If the player is in the program or random play
mode, the sequential play mode cannot be
switched.
2. Each press of the SEQUENCE MODE (SEQ. MODE)
button switches the sequential play mode of the
player alternately.
[Sequential play mode 1 ("SEQ.1" lit)]
All discs can be played including DVD VIDEO discs.
When there is a P.B.C.-compatible VCD or a DVD
VIDEO on the tray, sequential playback may
sometimes be interrupted and the menu displayed.
In this case, perform menu playback.
[Sequential play mode 2 ("SEQ.2" lit)]
Playback of DVD VIDEO discs is skipped in order
not to interrupt sequential playback. (The display
shows "SKIP DVD-V" to indicate this.)
With a DVD AUDIO disc containing the recording
of menu, menu playback is not available.
With a P.B.C.-compatible VCD, playback is
performed by switching P.B.C. automatically to off.
When the sequential play mode is changed,
"SEQ 1" or "SEQ 2" is displayed on the TV screen
and the "SEQ.1" or "SEQ.2" indicator light in the
display to indicate the current sequential play
mode.
