RANDOM PLAYBACK MODES
GROUP
Activates playback of the loaded disc in a random order of groups,
beginning with the currently playing group.
TRACK
Activates playback of the loaded disc in a random order of tracks,
beginning with the currently playing track. When a DVD-A is
loaded, random track playback includes tracks in the currently play-
ing group. When the currently playing group includes just one
track, activating random track playback repeats playback of that
track. When another disc format is loaded, random track playback
includes all tracks on the loaded disc.
Note:
Random playback is not available for DVD-Vs, DVD-R/RWs, Video CDs
and SVCDs that include PBC menus.
To activate random playback:
1. Press the remote control RANDOM button when the disc is in
stop mode.
The Random Track bar opens at the top of the on-screen dis-
play. (Press the RANDOM button again to toggle to RANDOM
OFF.)
If the Random bar does not open, random playback may not
be available for the loaded disc. The “Playback Modes Table”
on page 4-10 indicates the random playback modes available
for each disc format.
2. Press the PLAY button to activate the selected random playback
mode.
3. When random playback is in progress:
• Press the remote control PREV button to return to the
beginning of the currently playing title, chapter, group, or
track.
• Press the remote control NEXT button to skip to the begin-
ning of the next randomly selected chapter, group, or track.
For instance, when random chapter playback is activated,
pressing the NEXT button skips to the beginning of the next
randomly selected chapter.
• When playing a DVD-A disc, press the remote control
SEARCH button and enter the group number of the track
you wish to play using the number buttons. Then press the
PLAY button to activate random playback within the desig-
nated group.
To deactivate random playback:
Press the STOP button to activate stop or resume mode. Then press
the RANDOM button.
