Displays of each item
By pressing DISPLAY repeatedly, you can display either
“BIT RATE” or “LAYER,” whichever was selected in
“ADVANCED.”
BIT RATE
Bit rate refers to the amount of video/audio data per
second in a disc. The higher the bit rate, the larger the
amount of data. When the bit rate level is high, there is a
large amount of data. However, this does not always
mean that you can get higher quality pictures or sounds.
LAYER
Indicates the approximate point where the disc is playing.
If it is a dual-layer DVD, the player indicates which layer
is being read (“Layer 0” or “Layer 1”).
For details on the layers, see page 66 (DVD).
