PERFORMING AN A-B REPEAT
The DV27 can repeat a specific section of a movie: this is called an A-B
repeat.
To perform an A-B repeat, wait until the movie is at the point where
you want the repeat to start, and press
A-B . The TV display will say
‘Repeat A-’, and the front panel display will say ‘A-’. Press A-B again at
the point you want the repeat to end. ‘Repeat A-B’ is displayed on the
TV monitor, and the front panel display says ‘A-B’. The selected section
is repeated in a loop.
To cancel the A-B repeat, press A-B again. The TV display confirms
‘Repeat A-B cancelled’.
BOOKMARKS
SETTING BOOKMARKS
It is possible to ‘bookmark’ up to three points on a DVD title, so you
can jump quickly to those parts of the title in the future. Bookmarks
for up to 100 discs can be stored: when this limit is exceeded, new
bookmarks will overwrite those set earlier. Note that double-sided
discs are treated as two separate discs for the purposes of setting and
clearing bookmarks.
To set a bookmark, wait until the film has played nearly to the
point you wish to mark, and press
MEM . The bookmark menu is
superimposed on the picture:
M a r k e r s : 0 : 0 1 : 2 2
M a r k 1 :
M a r k 2 :
M a r k 3 :
- : - - : - -
- : - - : - -

The time field for ‘Mark 1’ is highlighted. At the exact moment you
wish to mark, press
OK . Bookmark 1 has now been set.
M a r k e r s : 0 : 1 5 : 2 0
M a r k 1 :
M a r k 2 :
M a r k 3 : 0 : 1 5 : 2 0

To close the bookmark menu, press MEM again.
Alternatively you may set bookmarks 2 and 3 on the same disc by
highlighting the appropriate time field and marking the position(s) by
pressing
OK . To close the bookmark menu, press MEM as before.
JUMPING TO BOOKMARK POSITIONS
If a disc has bookmarks set, you can jump quickly to those points using
the ‘Bookmark’ menu. Press
MEM to open the menu:
M a r k e r s :
M a r k 1 :
M a r k 2 :
M a r k 3 :
0 : 1 5 : 2 0
- : - - : - -

0 : 3 5 : 1 2
Highlight the bookmark using the cursor pad, and press OK . The menu
closes and the player jumps straight to the bookmark position.
CLEARING BOOKMARKS
It may be necessary to clear bookmarks if you have used the three
markers on a particular disc and now wish to mark different points on
the DVD, or if you have set bookmarks for 100 discs and wish to set
new bookmarks without overwriting others. You will need to clear all
the markers from a disc in order to release any space.
To clear a bookmark, open the bookmark menu by pressing MEM .
Highlight the bookmark you wish to clear using the cursor pad and
press
CLEAR on the remote control.
