DVD players and DVD discs have their own Region Code
numbers. This unit only can play back DVD discs whose
Region Code numbers include “4”.

Disc structure
A DVD disc is comprised of “titles”, while an Audio CD, Video
CD or SVCD is comprised of “tracks”. Each title may be divided
into some “chapters”. For example, if a DVD disc contains some
movies, each movie may have its own title number, and each mov-
ie may be divided into some chapters. In a DVD karaoke disc, each
song usually has its own title number and does not have chapters.
In general, each title has independent content, while each chapter
in the same title has continuity.

Video CDs/SVCDs with Playback Control function
What is Playback Control function?
The Playback Control function, allows you to enjoy menu-driven operation and high-resolution still images which have a resolution four
times greater than moving pictures.
• Menu-driven playback
You can interact with the screen using a menu display to select and play an entry.
• High-resolution still image display
You can display high-quality images four times clearer than moving pictures.
A selection menu is displayed when you start playing a Video CD or SVCD with the Playback Control feature. The selection menu shows
a list of numbers for selection. Some discs may show moving pictures or a divided screen.
1. When a list of numbers is displayed, selecting a number shows its contents.
2. When “3
33
3” or “SELECT” is displayed on the television screen, pressing this button jumps to the specific picture.
3. When the selection menu is re-displayed after you have played your selection, selecting a number again replays its contents.
(Some discs may show the menu screen several times.)
When ¢ and 4 are shown, pressing “NEXT” or “PREV” can change the selection menu.
4. After playback, press RETURN to go back to the previous screen.
To stop playback, press STOP.
Note:
When a menu is displayed for a long time (about ten minutes), the screen background automatically gets dark to prevent
screen burn-in while the setting is suspended.
