Playing discs

Notes:

•Many of the functions covered in this chapter apply to
DVD discs, Video CDs, CDs, DivX Video and MP3/
JPEG discs, although the exact operation of some var-
ies 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 (DivX video only one speed).
You can play DVDs at four different slow motion speeds,
forwards and backwards. Video CD and DivX Video can
be played at four different forward slow motion speeds.
Note:
• Backward slow-motion playback does not work with
Video CD and DivX Video.
