(For DVD AUDIO)
A DVD AUDIO disc is comprised of "groups," and each
group is comprised of "tracks." Some DVD AUDIO discs
also contain a "bonus group" that can be played back by
entering the "key number" (a kind of password). Usually
the contents of a "bonus group" are not opened to the
public. Note that most DVD AUDIO discs include other
information in addition to audio, such as still pictures,
movies and text.
(For DVD VIDEO)
A DVD VIDEO disc is comprised of "titles" and each title
may be divided into "chapters." For example, if a DVD
VIDEO disc contains some movies, each movie may have
its own title number, and each movie may be divided
into some chapters. In a DVD VIDEO KARAOKE disc,
each song usually has its own title number and does not
have chapters.
(For SVCD/Video CD/Audio CD)
An SVCD, Video CD or Audio CD is simply comprised of
"tracks."
What is Playback Control (PBC) function?
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.
• Menu-driven playback
A selection menu is displayed when you start playing a
SVCD or Video CD disc with the Playback Control
feature. The selection menu shows a list of numbers
for selection. Some discs may show moving pictures
or a divided screen.
You can interact with the screen using the menu
display to select and play an entry.
See illustration below about basic feature of menu-
driven playback (See page 27 for more information
about PBC (Playback Control).).
How to handle discs
When handling a disc, do not touch the surface of the
disc. Since discs are made of plastic, they are easily
damaged. If a disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped,
the images and sound will not be picked up correctly,
and such a disc may cause the player to malfunction.
Label side
Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any
adhesive on its surface.
Storage
Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are
piled on top of one another without their protective
cases, they can be damaged. Do not put discs in a
location where they may be exposed to direct sunlight,
or in a place where the humidity or temperature is high.
Avoid leaving discs in your car!
Maintenance of discs
If there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering to a disc,
wipe with a soft dry cloth, moving from the center
outwards.
If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a cloth moistened
with water. Never use record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or
any anti-static agents.
