With many films on DVDs there is a main menu on the disc which, apart from the option of playing back the main film, allows you to select from the following contents:

the subtitle and film dialogue languages

direct chapter selection

to playback the films bonus material (Background information, "Making

of" etc.)

If such a menu is present on the DVD inserted in the DVD player you can ac- cess it during playback by pressing the MENU button on the remote control. You can select particular menu items by pressing the control buttons on the remote control.

To confirm the selected menu item press the PLAY/PAUSE￿￿ button or the OK button on the remote control.

To return to playback press the MENU button on the remote control again.

Note:

If you cancel playback by pressing the STOP￿ button twice (Playback stop wi- thout resume function) access to the disc's main menu is no longer possible.

Playback Control (PBC) with VCDs/S-VCDs

Many VCDs/S-VCDs have Playback Control (in short "PBC"). Playback Control indicates a main menu that allows operation of several functions of the VCD/S-VCD.

If PCB is available on a VCD/S-VCD inserted in the DVD player you must first activate it in order to be able to superimpose the menu.

To do this press the MODE button on the remote control during playback or when playback has been stopped. The Play mode menu will be superimpo- sed on the television screen.

The MODE menu item is automatically selected first. By pressing the

OK button on the remote control you can select between the options Normal, Random and PBC. Set to PBC and press the MODE button again. The Play mode menu fades out and PBC is now switched on.

Note:

If you switch on PBC during playback it is possible that playback will be cancel- led and starts again from the beginning.

To superimpose the PBC main menu press the button MENU on the remote control during playback.

Note:

This function may not be available on all DVDs! If you attempt to carry out a

function that is not available the symbol will be displayed on the televi- sion screen.

With the SKIP FORWARDS (+) and SKIP BACKWARDS (-)buttons, within the film on the

inserted DVD/VCD/S-VCD you can, during playback...

skip forward to the beginning of the next chapter or

skip backward to the preceeding chapter

The respectively selected chapter will playback immediately without having to press the PLAY/PAUSE￿￿ button. The number of the respectively selected chapter will be displayed on the front panel of the DVD player to the left of the played back so far time.

Title number input via the number buttons

Note:

This function may not be available on all DVDs! If you attempt to carry out a

function that is not available the symbol will be displayed on the televi- sion screen.

Instead of using the Skip function you can also access a title from within the film of an inserted DVD/VCD/S-VCD directly by entering the title number via the number buttons 0 to 9 on the remote control.

To do this, during playback or when playback is cancelled, press the num- ber buttons on the remote control that correspond to the title number that you want i.e. press the "3" button for the third title or the buttons "1" follo- wed by "0" for the tenth title. The entered numbers will be briefly superim- posed on the television screen.

Then press the OK button on the remote control. Playback of the entered num- ber title will now start automatically.
