Playing discs
The basic playback controls for playing DVD,
CD, Video CD/Super VCD and MP3 discs are
covered here. Further functions are detailed
in the next chapter.
• Throughout this manual, the term ‘DVD’
means DVD-Video, and DVD-R/RW. If a
function is specific to a particular kind of
DVD disc, it is specified.
1
If the player isn’t already on, press
STANDBY/ON to switch it on.
If you’re playing a DVD or Video CD/Super
VCD, also turn on your TV and make sure that
it is set to the correct video input.
2
Press
OPEN/CLOSE to open the disc
tray.
3
Load a disc.
Load a disc with the label side facing up,
using the disc tray guide to align the disc (if
you’re loading a double-sided DVD disc, load
it with the side you want to play face down).
4
Press
(play) to start playback.
If you’re playing a DVD or Video CD/Super
VCD, a menu may appear. See
DVD disc
menus
on
page 29
and
Video CD/Super VCD
PBC menus
on
page 30
for more on how to
navigate these.
If you’re playing an MP3 disc, it may take a
few seconds before playback starts,
depending on the complexity of the file struc-
ture on the disc.
If you loaded a CD/CD-R/RW containing
JPEGs, a slideshow will start. See
Viewing
JPEG discs
on
page 45
for more on playing
these discs.
• See also
PhotoViewer
on
page 60
if the
disc contains both MP3 audio files and
JPEG picture files (by default, you will not
be able to play the MP3 files).
