Advanced DVD and VCD features
This section explains the more sophisticated DVD and VCD
features, such as special playback modes. The operations
described here are not exactly the same for DVDs and VCDs,
but are similar enough to make it appropriate to group them
together.
Note that many VCDs have a single track, so some operations
involving tracks will not be relevant.
Jumping to a particular point
Press the SRCH button on the remote control to open the
‘Search’ menu:
Search
Time:
Title/Chapter:
01 27
-;--:--
00:56:10 00:56:12
If the disc is playing, then the elapsed and total times on the
disc are shown in the top right of the page.
A jump can be performed using different speciers: jump to a
particular time or to a specied chapter/track on the disc.
Time
Highlight the ‘Time’ eld and enter the time in hours, minutes
and seconds, then press OK. The Search menu is removed
from the screen and playback starts from the time specied.
Invalid time entries are ignored.
Title/Chapter
(Applies to DVDs only) To jump to a title or chapter, highlight the
title/chapter position and enter the number of the title/chapter
to jump to, before pressing OK. It is possible to jump to a
chapter within a different title to the current one by entering
a value into both elds. Note that specifying a title without a
chapter will jump to the rst chapter in the title.
Track
(VCDs only) To jump to a specied track on a VCD, enter the
track number in the ‘Track’ eld, then press OK. Note that many
VCDs have only one track.
Closing the Search menu
When displayed, this menu screen can be closed again
by pressing the SRCH button (which also has the effect of
cancelling the search).
Special playback modes
Playback modes are available that allow repeat, shufe and
programmed playback.
Repeat
Press the RPT button on the remote control to cycle through
the repeat options. For DVDs, a chapter or title repeat may
be selected (i.e. play continuously the current chapter or the
current title). For VCDs, a track or disc repeat is available.
When a chapter/track repeat is selected, the loop symbol on
the front panel display is illuminated and the current chapter/
track is repeated. If a title/disc repeat is selected, the loop
symbol and ‘ALL’ are illuminated and the current title/disc is
repeated.
To cancel repeat, press the RPT button until ‘Repeat: Off’ is
displayed.
Shufe
Press the P MODE button on the remote control to to switch
shufe play on.
The ‘RAND’ (random play) indicator shows on the display, and
the chapters/tracks are played in random order.
To cancel random play, press the P MODE button for a second
time.
Peforming an A-B repeat
The DV88PLUS can repeat a specic section of a DVD or VCD;
this is called an A-B repeat.
To perform an A-B repeat, wait until the disc is at the point
where you want the repeat to start, then press A-B. The TV
display shows a repeat symbol, followed by ‘A–’, and the front
panel shows ‘A–’.
Press A-B again at the point you want the repeat to end. The
repeat symbol, followed by ‘A-B’ is shown on the TV monitor, and
the front panel shows ‘A-B’. The selected section is repeated in
a loop.
To cancel the A-B repeat, press A-B again. An ‘Off’ message is
displayed on the TV monitor.
