PLAYBACK OF A DVD/VIDEO CD
____________
DVD and video CD features
DVDs and video CDs can be recognised by their labels.
DVDs and video CDs may have one or more titles, depending on their contents
(films, music videos etc.).
Each title may contain one or more chapters. Titles and chapters can be selected
easily and comfortably.
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 sections which have been arranged in a fixed
order by the manufacturer. However, you can also select individual titles and
passages according to your preference and then play them back.
DVDs have a title menu which provide an overview of the titles and/or sections
of titles they contain.
Some DVD player functions, such as slow motion, freeze-frame and auto-play,
can also be controlled by the DVD. This may have the result that, for example,
the freeze-frame function cannot be selected in particular 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 sub-titles in several different
languages. You may display sub-titles in 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 aut-
horisedfor region code 2.
DVDs can also be provided with a supplementary regional code. When you ins-
ert a DVD with a regional code that does not correspond to that of the DVD
player, a message about the regional code appears on the TV screen. This DVD
cannot be played back.
