Playing discs
Notes:
Many of the functions covered in this chapter apply to
DVD and SACD discs, Video CDs, CDs and WMA/
MP3 JPEG discs, although the exact operation of
some varies slightly with the kind of disc loaded.
Some DVDs restrict the use of some functions (ran-
dom or repeat, for example) in some or all parts of the
disc. This is not a malfunction.
When playing Video CD, 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.
You can fast-scan discs forward or backward at four dif-
ferent speeds.
Playing in slow motion You can play DVD-Videos and
DVD-R/RW at four different slow motion speeds, for-
wards and backwards. Video CD/Super VCDs can be
played at four different forward slow motion speeds.
Note:
Backward slow-motion playback does not work with
Video CD.
