Playing Video CDs with PBC
Function
The System provides a Playback Control (PBC) function
which utilizes a procedure (menu selection) programmed in
a video CD.
What is the Playback Control (PBC) function?
The PBC function allows you to enjoy the following fea-
tures.
• Menu-driven playback
You can interact with the TV screen using a menu dis-
play to select and play an entry.
• High-resolution still image display
You can display high-quality images four times clearer
than video pictures.
❏ For operation, refer to the instructions supplied for the
video CD.
❏ You can play video CDs with PBC function using the
menu screen (Menu-Driven Play) or without using the
menu screen (Continuous Play).
• The playback operation procedure may differ depending
on the video CD you use.
• Sometimes due to improper manufacturing, video CDs will
function differently.
