This section shows you how to use your recorder for playback of discs (DVD, CD, etc.), and for playback of video from the HDD.

Important

•Throughout this manual, the term ‘DVD’ means any kind of playable or recordable DVD. If a function is specific to a particular kind of DVD disc, it is specified.

•Some DVD-Video, DVD+R and DVD+RW discs don’t allow certain playback controls to operate at certain points in the disc. This is not a malfunction.

	OPEN/CLOSE
2	Load a disc.
