3 Load a disc.

Load a disc with the label side facing up, using the disc tray guide to align the disc (if you’re loading a double-sided DVD disc, load it with the side you want to play face down).

4 Press (play) to start playback.

If you’re playing a DVD or Video CD/Super VCD, an on-screen menu may appear. See DVD disc menus on page 20 and Video CD/Super VCD PBC menus on page 20 for more on how to navigate these.

If you’re playing a containing DivX video files or MP3/WMA audio files, it may take a few seconds before playback starts, etc. This is normal.

Note

You may find with some DVD discs that some playback controls don’t work in certain parts of the disc. This is not a malfunction.

If a disc contains a mixture of DivX video and other media file types (MP3, for example), first select whether to play the DivX video files (DivX)or the other media file types (MP3 / WMA / JPEG) from the on-screen display.
