For your reference:

You can fast-forward, rewind, pause and slow-motion while playing scenes just as you can during normal play.

One disc can have a maximum of 99 play lists and 999 scenes. These numbers may be reduced under some conditions.

You cannot use the [STOP ] button while finding start and end points.

You cannot specify an end point before a start point or a start point after an end point.

If you specify an end point but not a start point, the unit determines the beginning of the program as the start point. Similarly, if you specify a start point but not an end point, the unit determines the end of the program as the end point.

You may not be able to specify start and end points if the material is still pictures recorded on other equipment.

The unit pauses play when the end of the last program on the disc is reached during this procedure.

You can also display the “CREATE PLAY LIST” screen by selecting “– –” at the bottom of the play list.
