Playing discs

The basic playback controls for playing DVD, CD, SACD, Video CD and MP3 discs are covered here. Further functions are detailed in the next chapter. Throughout this manual, the term ‘DVD’ means DVD-Video, DVD-Audio and DVD-R/RW. If a function is specific to a particular kind of DVD disc, it is specified.

1 If the player isn’t already on, press STANDBY/ON on the remote to switch it on. If you’re playing a DVD or Video CD, also turn on your TV and make sure that it is set to the correct video input.

2 Press OPEN/CLOSE to open the disc tray.

3 Load a disc. Load a disc with the label side facing up, using the disc tray guide to align the disc. Never load more than one disc at a time.

4 Press (play) to start playback. If you’re playing a DVD or Video CD/Super VCD, a menu may appear. If you’re playing an MP3 disc, it may take a few seconds before playback starts, depending on the complexity of the file structure on the disc.

Basic playback controls

The list below shows the basic controls on the remote for playing discs. The following chapter covers more playback features in more detail.

(Play)

Starts playback. DVD and Video CD; if the display shows RESUME, playback starts from the resume point.

(pause)

Pauses a disc that’s playing or restarts a paused disc.

(Stop)

Stops playback. DVD-Video and DVD-RW and Video CD: Display shows RESUME. Press (stop) again to cancel the

resume function (The resume function is also cancelled when you eject the disc tray.)

Numbers

Use to enter a title/group/track number. Press ENTER to select (or wait a few seconds.) If the disc is stopped, playback

starts from the selected title/group (for DVD) or track number (for CD/SACD/Video CD/Super VCD/MP3). If the disc is playing, playback jumps to the start of the selected chapter or track (within the current group for DVD-Audio).

Front panel and small remote controls

The (play), (stop), and (pause) buttons on the front panel and small remote work in exactly the same way as their remote control equivalents. The combined scan/skip buttons on the front panel and small remote work slightly differently from the remote buttons (<< and >>). Press and hold for fast scan; press for track/chapter skip. You may find with some DVD discs that some playback controls don’t work in certain parts of the disc. This is not a malfunction.

DVD disc menus

Many DVD-Video and DVD-Audio discs contain menus from which you can select what you want to watch or listen to. They may give access to additional features, such as subtitle and audio language selection, or special features such as slideshows. See the disc packaging for details. Sometimes menus are displayed automatically when you start playback; others only appear when you press MENU or TOP MENU. Some DVD-Audio discs feature a ‘bonus group’. To access this group you have to input a password, which you can find on the disc’s packaging. See page 67 for more information.

TOP MENU
