OPERATION
Subtitles
Many discs contain one or more subtitle languages. The default subtitles
language is set in the Disc Setup menu, but you may also turn the
subtitles on or off, or change the language during playback.
To change the subtitle language or turn the subtitles on or off, press the
Subtitle Button while the disc is playing. The current Subtitle will appear
at the top of the screen. Each press of the Subtitle Button will change
the current language, or turn subtitling off. When your desired selection
appears, wait 5 seconds for the display to clear on its own.
Angles
Some discs contain multiple-camera angle views, which allow the disc’s
creators to provide different views of the same scene. The disc will alert
you to the presence of multiple angles, or the Angle message will
appear on screen.
When multiple-angle views are available, press the Angle Button to change
the view. The current angle number and total available angles will be
displayed. Additional presses change the view.
Repeat Play
To repeat the current title or chapter, press the Repeat Button while the
disc is playing. Each additional press changes the Repeat mode, or turns
it off. See the Basic Playback section for more information.
A-B Repeat Play
The Repeat A-B function allows you to repeat a selected portion of a
DVD-Video disc or compatible BD disc continuously.
The first press of the Repeat A-B Button selects the beginning of the
passage. Press it again to select the end of the passage. The third press
turns off the Repeat mode.
Audio CD Playback
When a CD is loaded, it will automatically begin playing after about a
minute. The track number will appear on screen, and the track number
and elapsed track time will appear in the front-panel Message Display.
Tracks
To select a track, press the Find Button, and select a new track using
the Numeric Keys. The new track number will appear in the upper left
corner of the screen. Press the Enter Button to begin play.
Repeat Play
To repeat the current track or disc, press the Repeat Button while the
disc is playing. Each additional press changes the Repeat mode, or
turns it off. See the Playback Basics section for more information.
A-B Repeat Play
The Repeat A-B function allows you to repeat a selected portion of
a CD continuously.
The first press of the Repeat A-B Button selects the beginning of the
passage. Press it again to select the end of the passage. The third
press turns off the Repeat mode.
MP3, Windows Media ® and JPEG Playback
The BDP 1 will recognize data on CD-ROM discs and USB drives
recorded in the MP3, Windows Media 9 (WMA) or JPEG formats.
Media containing MP3, WMA or JPEG files are navigated and controlled
differently than standard video discs and audio CDs. When a disc or
USB drive containing one or more of these types of files is loaded,
the Media Launcher menu will appear on screen.
For USB drives, first select between the USB drive and the optical disc,
if one is loaded. Then select whether to play the drive’s content or to
use the drive as virtual memory for the BD-Live feature (see page 20).
For both USB drives and data CDs, a navigation menu will offer a choice
of content types. Options may appear, even if that type of content is not
present on the media. To view photos or listen to audio, select either
“Pictures” or “Music”. Use the
⁄ / ¤ Buttons to highlight your choice
and press the OK Button to select it.
The BDP 1 will display icons for the folders and files on the storage
device. Since still images may be viewed while audio is playing when
both types of files are stored on the same media, both types of files
appear on screen together.
NOTE: To view and play the data files correctly, make sure they
are stored on the disc or drive with the proper file extensions:
“.mp3” for MP3 audio files, “.wma” for WMA audio files and
“.jpg” for JPEG image files.
• To expand a folder, highlight the folder, then press the OK Button.
• To collapse a folder or return to the previous menu, press the
Return Button.
• To select a track, highlight the track name, then press the OK Button.
The Transport Controls function the same as for BD and DVD video
discs and audio CDs. See the Playback Basics section for details. You
may also begin audio playback by pressing the Disc Menu Button and
selecting the “Play” option at the file level, or the “Play Audio Files”
function at the folder level.
IMPORTANT NOTE ON USING THE POPUP MENUS: Use
the
⁄ / ¤ Buttons to highlight an option. If a “ › ” symbol
appears next to the option, then you must press the › Button
to continue, and a new list of options will appear. If the “ › ”
symbol is not shown, press the OK Button to select the option.
To return to the previous menu level or to clear the popup
menu from the screen, press the
‹ Button.
To access the Repeat and Random play modes, you must first create
a playlist.
