S-VCD/VCD PLAYBACK
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-VCDs/VCDs (films, music videos etc.),
the discs may carry one or more tracks.
Like audio CDs, VCDs/S-VCDs also have a track structure.
You can create S-VCDs/VCDs using the PBC (playback control) system for
track navigation. This depends on the editing and burning software used.
You can control and direct playback of the S-VCD/VCD using the menu of
the DVD player on the television screen.
You cannot select some of the functions on the DVD player (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.
PBC (playback control)
PBC is a navigation option for S-VCD/VCDs. PBC information is burned
onto the disc when it is manufactured. PBC switches between the playlist
structure (the menu on the S-VCD/VCD) and manual selection by the user.
PBC is activated when it is ready for delivery. PBC and program informa-
tion on the S-VCD/VCD specify the navigation options. If the disc has PBC,
»PBC« appears in the display.
If PBC is switched off, the S-VCD/VCD is just like an audio CD (with tracks)
with regard to navigation. You can select a track by using
