Note
• Many of the functions covered in this
chapter apply to DVD and SACD discs,
Video CDs/Super VCDs, CDs, DivX video
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 (random or repeat, for example)
in some or all parts of the disc. This is not a
malfunction.

of the functions are not available during
