Note
• Many of the functions covered in this
chapter apply to DVD discs, Video CDs/
Super VCDs, CDs, DivX video and WMA/
MP3 JPEG discs, although the exact
operation of some varies slightly with the

functions (random or repeat, for example)
in some or all parts of the disc. This is not a
malfunction.
