To check the playback status
You can see the current disc number, the current selection
number (the title/chapter number for DVD VIDEO or track number
for SVCD/Video CD/Audio CD), time information (the track or
chapter time while stopped, or elapsed track or chapter time
during playback) and the transport status (stop, playback, pause,
etc.) on the TV screen.
Press ON SCREEN.
Example: for DVD VIDEO
Note that pressing ON SCREEN again brings up the menu bar
under the status bar, from which you can access various
functions. See page 20 for details about the menu bar.
To turn off the status bar
Press ON SCREEN repeatedly until the status bar goes off.
To stop playback completely
Press 7.
Hint
If you press one of the 0 buttons during playback, the unit stops
playback and the corresponding disc tray opens.
To stop playback temporarily
Press 8.
To resume playback, press 3. (See the following item.)
Resuming playback
The unit can memorize the position on a disc where you interrupt
playback, and resume playback from that position later.
There are three resume modes; ON, OFF and DISC RESUME.
The mode is initially set to ON when you purchased the unit.
• You can select the mode using the preference display (see
page 28).
When the resume mode is “ON”
When you press 7, the unit stops playback and memorizes the
interrupted position. The TV screen shows [RESUME STOP] and
the [RESUME] indicator lights up in the display window.
The memory of the interrupted position is not cleared if you turn
off the unit.
When you turn off the unit after setting the resume function,
simply press 3. The unit is turned on, and playback starts from
the interrupted position. If you turn on the unit by pressing
STANDBY/ON then press 3, playback starts from the beginning
of the disc.
Note that the memory is cleared if you open the disc tray.
When the resume mode is “DISC RESUME”
When you press 7, the unit stops playback and memorizes the
interrupted position. The TV screen shows [RESUME STOP] and
the [RESUME] indicator lights up in the display window.
The memory of the interrupted position is not cleared if you open
the disc tray or turn off the unit.
Hint
The unit memorizes interrupted positions for the last 30 discs
played. Storing a new interrupted position will erase the
interrupted position stored for the first disc.
To clear the memory
Press 7 while the disc is stopped.
