command and an error message (E04) is returned. In addition, if the disc

program blocks the Pause command, the player ignores the command.

The DVD-V8000 does not accept other commands during the execution of a

Search command, returning an E04 error message. After issuing a Search

command, wait until the Return (R) status appears before issuing another

command. An exception to this rule is the Mark Frame Play command (i.e.

FR1200PL), when it is unnecessary to wait for the R status before sending

additional commands.

5.17 Search & Play

Function : Searches to specified address and starts to play immediately

Format : Address SL

Explanation : The specified address is written into an appropriate register

according to the Address. The player then compares the address with the

current address. The pick-up moves so that the difference becomes 0.

The player plays a disc immediately after reaching the specific address. In

case the player misses or fails to locate the address, it returns an error code

(E06 or E12). If Frame is selected in Address Mode, the player ignores the

command.
