Note

PAL displays 25 frames per second, numbered 0-24. NTSC displays 30 frames per second, numbered 0-29. The Frame Search option in the Video menu must be On to use this.

Press DISPLAY while a still picture is displayed to see the frame number.

Depending on the disc, it may not be possible to search for a specific frame. Also, when using frame advance, forward step or reverse step.

Each frame may not be appear in exact order when stepping through them. The number assigned to a specific frame may be different when stepping through the frames in forward or reverse mode.

Using the Multi Dial

You can use the Multi Dial to control fast and slow motion scanning and frame advance of DVD-Video, DVD-R/RW and Video CDs.

When scanning, no audio is output, even when the scanning speed is 1/1 (normal playback speed).

To start scanning playback at 1/16 speed, turn the MULTI DIAL (clockwise for forward; anticlockwise for reverse) during playback.

Turn the MULTI DIAL in the same direction to increase the scan speed—the speed is indicated at the top left of the screen.

Turn in the opposite direction to slow the scan speed/reverse direction.

• To start high-speed scanning, turn the MULTI DIAL quickly (clockwise for forward; anticlockwise for reverse) during playback.

• Change the speed/direction in the same way as above.

• To resume normal playback, press 3.

• To start manual scanning, press JOG MODE, then use the MULTI DIAL to advance frames in either direction.

To switch off jog mode, press JOG MODE again. The picture remains paused until you restart playback.

• To resume normal playback, press 3.

Note

You can scan Video CDs in the same way as DVD-Video discs (see above). However, reverse slow-motion scanning is not possible, and there are just two fast scanning speeds.
