DVD/VIDEO CD PLAYBACK

DVD and video CD features
You can recognise DVDs and video CDs by their label.
Depending on the contents of the DVD or video CD (films, music videos etc.),
they may carry one or more titles.
Each title may contain one or more chapters. Titles and chapters can be selected
easily and conveniently.
Playback of a DVD or video CD can be controlled and directed via the menu of
the DVD player on the television screen.
Special features of DVDs
DVDs may contain titles and passages which have been arranged in fixed order
by the manufacturer. You can also select the individual titles and passages of
your choice and then play them back.
DVDs have a title menu which provides an overview of the contained titles
and/or passages of titles.
Some DVD player functions, such as slow motion, freeze-frame and auto-play,
can also be controlled by the DVD itself. It is thus possible that the freeze-frame
function, for example, cannot be selected in certain scenes.
Many DVDs have audio tracks recorded in up to eight languages.
You may select the language you prefer.
Many DVDs are recorded by the manufacturer with subtitles in several different
languages. You can select subtitle superimposition from up to 32 different
languages.
Since films are released in different parts of the world at different times, all DVD
players world-wide are provided with a regional code. Your DVD player is
designed for region code 2.
DVDs can also be provided with a supplementary regional code. When you
insert a DVD with a non-corresponding regional code in the DVD player, a
reference to the regional code appears on the TV screen. The DVD player will
not be able to play back such a DVD.
