Getting Started—Continued
The basic playback controls for playing DVD, CD,
Video CD, DivX Video/WMV and MP3/WMA/MPEG-
4 AAC discs are covered here. Further functions are
detailed in the next chapter.
For details on playing JPEG picture discs, see “Viewing
a JPEG slideshow” on page 32.
Notes:
• You may find with some DVD discs that some play-
back controls don’t work in certain parts of the disc.
This is not a malfunction.
• If a disc contains a mixture of movie (DivX video/
WMV) and other media file types (MP3, for example),
first select whether to play the movie files (DivX/
WMV) or the other media file types (MP3/WMA/
MPEG-4 AAC/JPEG) from the on-screen display.
