PLAYING A VIDEO CD

You will recognize Video CDs by the logo. Depending on the
material on the disc (a movie, video clips, a drama series, etc.)
these discs may have one or more Tracks, and tracks may have
one or more Indexes, as indicated on the disc case. To make
access easy and convenient, your player lets you move between
Tracks, and between Indexes.
Some Video CDs have Play Back Control (PBC), which is a
predefined playback sequence stored on the disc.
– During play, various icons will appear on the TV screen for
about 2 seconds to confirm that a function has been selected.
You can get rid of the icon by pressing OSD.
– At any time during play, you can press OSD to call up the
Play Banner, which shows you which functions are active, for
about 2 seconds. To keep the Play Banner on the screen, hold
down OSD for a couple of seconds. To get rid of the Play
Banner, press OSD again.
