Playing discs

Introduction

Most of the features described in this chapter make use of on-screen displays. For an explanation of how to nav- igate these, see “Using the on-screen displays” on page 24.

Many of the functions covered in this chapter apply to DVD discs, Video CDs, CDs and WMA/MP3/JPEG discs, although the exact operation of some varies slightly with the kind of disc loaded.

Some DVD discs restrict the use of some functions (ran- dom or repeat, for example). This is not a malfunction. When playing Video CDs, some of the functions are not available during PBC playback. If you want to use them, start the disc playing using a number button to select a track.

Using the Disc Navigator to browse the contents of a disc

Use the Disc Navigator to browse through the contents of a disc to find the part you want to play. You can use the Disc Navigator when a disc is playing or stopped.

Tips:

The Disc Navigator is not available unless there is a disc loaded.

It’s not possible to use the Disc Navigator when play- ing a Video CD in PBC mode, or an unfinalized CD- R/RW disc.

Another way to find a particular place on a disc is to use one of the search modes. See “Searching a disc” on page 36.
