You can enter a sequence of up to 20 title/chapter combinations for
programmed playback. If you enter data that is invalid for the current
disc, the field is erased automatically.
A number of aids have been built in to the programme menu to make
it easier to use. These are best illustrated by an example. Let’s assume
that you want to play chapters 5, 7, 9, 4, 8, 3, and 1 (in that order) of
title 1, then all of title 2.

First, highlight the title position for the first programmed item (as
shown in the screen above). Then press the number
1
on the remote
control: ‘1’ is shown in the position. Using the remote control, press to
highlight the chapter position. The message at the bottom of the screen
changes accordingly, prompting you for the required information. Press
5
on the remote handset.
Since we have a number of chapters all from the same title, it would
be a lot of work to have to enter the title number each time. Press
on the remote handset. Notice that the player assumes that the title
number remains the same for this entry as for the previous one. Enter
the remaining chapter numbers, pressing after each one. (Note that
pressing at the bottom of a column places the cursor at the top of
the next column.)
Next, we want to specify all of title 2. For this, highlight the title position
of the next entry (entry 8) and enter the number
2
, indicating title 2.
Highlight the chapter position and, without entering any number, press
. The player fills in the text ‘All’ to indicate that all the chapters in title
2 will be played.
VCD
The bottom of the screen shows the number of tracks present on the
disc. Below this is an information line, giving relevant information for the
cursor position.
You can enter a sequence of up to 20 tracks for programmed playback.
If you enter data that is invalid for the current disc, the field is erased
automatically.
To program the player, highlight the first entry (using the cursor pad on
the remote control), then press the number of the track you want to
play first. To enter a second track, move down, then type the number
of the second track to play, etc. To enter a track number greater than
9, press the two digits sequentially (e.g., for track 10, first press
1
, then
press
0
).
To play the programme you have entered, highlight the
PLAY
button on
the screen and press
OK
. The ‘PROG’ indicator shows on the front panel
display and the programmed sequence begins.
If you make a mistake while programming, you can clear a single field by
highlighting it and pressing
CLEAR
. To clear all the fields at once, highlight
the ‘CLEAR ALL’ button on the screen and press
OK
.
To stop the programmed sequence and return to normal playback,
select the ‘PLAY’ button in the programme menu with no programme
specified. This clears programme mode and causes normal playback
order to be resumed.
Note that in programmed playback mode, skipping track forward or
back skips forward or back through the programmed sequence.
