Introduction
Most of the features described in this chapter make use
of on-screen displays. Navigate these using the cursor
buttons and
ENTER. To go back one level from any
screen, use the RETURN/EXIT button.
Remember also that the button guide at the bottom of
every screen shows which buttons do what.
Many of the functions covered in this chapter apply to the
HDD, DVD discs, Video CDs, Super VCDs, WMA/MP3/
DivX discs and CDs, although the exact operation of
some varies slightly with the kind of disc loaded.
• Many functions are not available when a Video CD is
playing in PBC mode. Start playback from the Disc
Navigator screen for non-PBC playback (see Using
the Disc Navigator with playback-only discs on
page 92).
• For discs that contain JPEG picture files, see The
PhotoViewer on page 118.
Basic playback
This section shows you how to use your recorder for
playback of discs (DVD, CD, etc.), and for playback of
video from the HDD.
Important
• Throughout this manual, the term ‘DVD’ means any
kind of playable or recordable DVD. If a function is
specific to a particular kind of DVD disc, it is specified.
• Some DVD-Video, DVD+R and DVD+RW discs don’t
allow certain playback controls to operate at certain
points in the disc. This is not a malfunction.
1 Select the HDD or DVD for playback.
• If playing video from the HDD, skip to step 3 below.
• Select DVD for any kind of disc playback.
2 [Front panel] Load a disc.
Load a disc with the label side facing up, using the disc
tray guide to align the disc (if you’re loading a double-sided
DVD-Video disc, load it with the side you want to play face
down).
• If you want to play a DTS audio CD, please first read
the note on page 90.
3 Start playback.
• If you’re playing a DVD-Video or Video CD, a disc
menu may appear when you start playback. Use the
/ / / buttons and ENTER to navigate DVD disc
menus, and the number buttons and ENTER for
Video CD menus.
• When playing video from the HDD, playback will
automatically stop after the end of a title is reached.
• There may be a slight pause when playback switches
from the first to the second layer of a dual-layer disc.
• See the following sections for more details on playing
specific kinds of discs.
