Playing discs
Notes:
• Many of the functions covered in this chapter apply to
DVD discs, Video CDs, CDs, DivX Video/WMV and
MP3/WMA/MPEG-4 AAC/JPEG discs, although the
exact operation of some varies slightly with the kind
of disc loaded.
• Some DVDs restrict the use of some functions (ran-
dom or repeat, for example) in some or all parts of the
disc. This is not a malfunction.
• When playing Video CD, some of the functions are
not available during PBC playback. If you want to use
them, start the disc playing using a number button to
select a track.
You can fast-scan discs forward or backward at four dif-
ferent speeds (DivX video/WMV only one speed).
You can play DVDs at four different slow motion speeds,
forwards and backwards. Video CD can be played at four
different forward slow motion speeds.
Note:
• Backward slow-motion playback does not work with
Video CD.
