from beginning to end.
•
Repeat 1 Disc: Plays the current disc from

Programmed Playlists
Programmed play allows you to select any track,
title or chapter from any disc in the DVD600
II
for
playback in a specific order. This type of
programming is particularly useful for parties
or other situations where you want continual
playback of specific selections for a long period
of time. To program the discs in the DVD600
II
for playback, follow these steps:
1. Press the Program Button on the
remote. Note that the Program Edit Screen
(Figures 29a and 29b) will appear on the video
display.
Figure 29a. CD Selected
Figure 29b. DVD Selected
2. Select the disc position for the first playback
selection by pressing the
⁄
/
¤
Buttons
y . When the desired disc number
appears in the disc’s box, press the
Enter
Button
or › Button to move to the
next selection.
3. The second box will now be highlighted to
indicate that a selection for track or title is to be
made. As the DVD600
II
already knows the disc
type for the position selected, the heading over
the box will indicate “Track” for CD discs and
“Title” for DVD discs. The number in parenthe-
ses under the box shows the maximum
number of tracks or titles on the disc. If “99”
appears, it indicates that the disc selected has
not yet been played and the unit does not yet
know the type of disc and how many titles or
tracks are available.
4. Press the
⁄
/
¤
Buttons y to scroll
through the list of available tracks or titles.
Press the
Enter Button or › Button
to move to the next selection.
Note that most DVD movie discs use “Title 1”
for movies, while “Title 2” is used for the open-
ing logos and piracy warnings. Before selecting
a DVD title number, you may wish to preview
the disc while the on-screen Menu Bar is active
to see which title numbers refer to each portion
of the disc. This is particularly important in discs
with large amounts of special feature material.
