Playing discs

Introduction

Most of the features described in this chapter make use of on-screen displays. For an expla- nation of how to navigate these, see Using the on-screen displays on page 32.

Many of the functions covered in this chapter apply to DVD and SACD discs, Video CDs, CDs and MP3 discs, although the exact oper- ation of some varies slightly with the kind of disc loaded.

Some DVD discs restrict the use of some functions (random or repeat, for example). This is not a malfunction.

When playing Video CDs, some of the func- tions are not available during PBC playback. If you want to use them, start the disc playing using a number button to select a track.

Using the Disc Navigator to browse the contents of a disc

Use the Disc Navigator to browse through the contents of a disc to find the part you want to play. You can use the Disc Navigator when a disc is playing or stopped.

1Press HOME MENU and select ‘Disc Navigator’ from the on-screen display. Alternatively, if a DVD-RW, CD, Video CD or MP3 disc is loaded, you can press MENU, which takes you straight to the Disc Navigator screen.
