Explanation:
1) If this command is sent when the player is in
Random Access
Mode
, video and audio are played at normal speed.
Play Mode
is
the only mode in which sound is automatically reproduced with
video on LaserDiscs.
2) If an address is specified, the player will play to that address
and stop automatically. The specified address is written in the
Mark Frame/Time/Block, or Mark Chapter/Track Register and
compared with the current address. When both values are equal,
Still Mode
(CAV) or
Pause Mode
(CLV, CDs) occurs; then the
completion status is returned. Command completion also occurs
when lead-out is found before the specified address is reached.
3) If this command is sent when the player is in
Open, Park
or
Spin-
Up Mode,
it is executed and the disc plays from the beginning of the
program area. Once playback begins, the completion status is
returned. Playback continues until another motion command is
received.

IMPORTANT NOTE
When using the PLAY command with an address, the auto stop function will be released if
any other command, including a status request, is sent to the player before the specified
address is reached.
Use the Stop Marker command to achieve an auto stop PLAY function that will allow for
status requests and maintain the end address marker.
