Chapters and Titles
DVDs contain one or more features organized as titles. We recommend
selecting titles using the disc’s menu system, where they are identified
by name.
Because titles can run for several hours, they are generally divided into
chapters, each of which is typically no more than a few minutes long,
encompassing one or more scenes. Chapter selection allows you to go
straight to your favorite section of the movie, or to easily skip past sec-
tions you’ve already viewed. Most discs offer a chapter selection menu
that includes thumbnail images for easy identification.
To select a chapter or title by number, press the Find Button on the
remote to display the Find Menu. See Figure 26. Pressing any Numeric
Key will also display the Find Menu, with the number shown in the
Chapter cell. Press the Enter Button to jump directly to that chapter.
Figure 26 – Find Menu
To select a title by number, navigate to the Title cell, enter the title number
and press the Enter Button.
To begin play from a specific time location within the title, also known as
“Time Search,” navigate to the Time cell and enter the desired starting
point. Press the Enter Button, and play will immediately begin at the
selected time.
You may also select a title or chapter, using the Status Display.
Status Display
Press the Status Button to view the Status Display (see Figure 27).
Figure 27 – Status Display
A temperature bar graphic appears at the top of the Status Display to
indicate the percentage of the selection that has been viewed.
Highlight either the Title or Chapter cell and press the Enter Button (

to view a list of the titles and chapters available. Use the
F
/
G
/
D
/
E
Navigation Buttons to select the desired title or chapter number, and press
the Enter Button to begin play at that point.
Highlight the Time Display cell at the bottom of the Status Display, and
each press of the Enter Button changes the time display both on screen
and on the DMC 1000’s front panel as follows: Title Elapsed, Title
Remaining, Chapter Elapsed and Chapter Remaining. The Time Search
function is not available in this display menu.
Press the Status Button or the Clear Button to remove the Status Display
from view without making a selection.
Repeat Play
You may repeat the current chapter or title, or select a passage to repeat
(A-B Repeat), and it will repeat until play is stopped or the repeat function
is turned off.
During playback, press the Play Mode Button to display the Play Mode
menu (Figure 28).
