Disc structure
A DVD disc is comprised of “titles”, while an Audio CD or Video
CD is comprised of “tracks”. Each title may be divided into some
“chapters”. For example, if a DVD disc contains some movies, each
movie, each movie may have its own title number, and each movie
may be divided into some chapters. In a DVD karaoke disc, each
song usually has its own title number and does not have chapters. In
general, each title has independent content, while each chapter in the
same title has continuity.

The Playback Control function, allows you to enjoy menu-driven operation and high-resolution still images which have a resolution four
times greater than moving pictures.

• High-resolution still image display
You can display high-quality images four times clearer than moving pictures.
A selection menu is displayed when you
start playing a Video CD disc with the
Playback Control feature. The selection
menu shows a list of numbers for selection.

divided screen.

selecting a number shows its contents.

while the setting is suspended.
