DVD features
You can recognise a DVD by the logo on the label.
Depending on the content of the DVD, the discs contain one or more
titles.
Each title may contain one or more chapters. Titles and chapters
can be selected easily and conveniently.
You can control and direct playback of a DVD using the menu of the
DVD player on the television screen.
Special DVD features
DVDs have a title menu which provides an overview of the available
titles and the passages they contain.
Some of the DVD player’s functions, such as slow motion, freeze-
frame and auto-play, can also be controlled by the DVD itself. It is
therefore possible that the freeze-frame function, for example, can-
not be selected during certain scenes.
Many DVDs have audio tracks recorded in up to eight languages.
This enables you to select the language you prefer.
Many DVDs are recorded by the manufacturer with subtitles in
several languages. You can select subtitles 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 given a regional code. The
regional code for your DVD player is 2.
DVDs may also be given a supplementary regional code. If you
insert a DVD with a code different to that of the DVD player, a
reference to the regional code appears on the television screen.
The DVD player will not be able to play back the DVD.
S-VCD/VCD features
You can recognise S-VCD/VCDs (video CDs) by the logo on the
label.
Depending on the contents of the S-VCD/VCD (films, music videos
etc.), the discs may carry one or more tracks.
Like audio CDs, S-VCDs/VCDs have a track structure.
S-VCDs/VCDs can be created using the PBC (playback control) sys-
tem for track navigation. This depends on the processing and burn-
ing software used.
You can control and direct playback of the S-VCD/VCD using the
menu on the television screen.
You cannot select some of the functions (slow motion, camera angle,
marking scenes) when you are playing an S-VCD/VCD. This
depends on how the S-VCD/VCD was created.
Depending on how they were created, S-VCDs can have various
subtitles and dubbed languages.
