Operating the DVD600
MP3 Disc Playback
When the DVD600
reads a disc and recognizes
II
it as an MP3 disc, no Disc Type Indicator
will light; however, a listing of all the directories
and tracks on the disc will appear on the video
screen. (Figure 23). Note that the right side of
the screen will initially be blank, as that is used
for programming playlists for MP3 playback. The
black box in the upper left corner of the screen
will show the Play symbol while a track is play-
ing, or the Play/Pause symbol when a track has
been paused, or no symbol when the unit is in
Stop mode. The box in the top center of the dis-
play will contain the file name of the currently
selected track.
The second row of boxes will display, from left
to right, an indication of whether the current
mode is Standard Play, Random Play or Repeat
Play; the track number currently playing, and the
elapsed time of the current track.

until the desired track name

will fit on the screen, a
or
indicator will

appear at the top or bottom of the track list to
remind you that you may scroll through the list
to see additional titles.
To begin playback, press the Play/Pause
Button
or the Enter Button
During MP3 playback most of the standard
CD/DVD playback controls operate in their
normal fashion:
• You may skip forward to the next track on the
disc by pressing the Next Button
• You may skip back to the previous track on the
disc by pressing the Previous Button
• Press the Pause Button
to momentarily
stop playback. Press it again to resume play.
• Press the Enter Button
to begin play, or
to restart play of the current track from the
beginning.
NOTES ON MP3 PLAYBACK
• The Fast Forward and Reverse Search modes
are not available during MP3 playback.
• During MP3 playback the Program Time
Indicators
will show the elapsed time of
the track being played. Other time display
options are not available with MP3 playback.
• The DVD600
is only compatible with stan-
II
dard MP3-encoded discs. Other compressed
audio formats used for Internet audio down-
loads will not play on the DVD600
• Due to the differences in various versions of
the MP3 format, and the many differences
between the CD-R machines used to record
MP3 discs on a computer, it is possible that
some MP3 discs may not play on the
DVD600
even though they will work on a
II
computer. This is normal and does not
indicate a fault with the unit.
• When a multisession disc with both standard
CD audio and MP3 content is in use, the
DVD600
will play only the CD audio sections
II
of the disc.
• When an MP3 disc with multiple directories
is playing, the DVD600
MP3 files on the disc and list them in the on-
screen display in the order in which the direc-
tories are structured on the disc. Note that if
the same title is used for tracks in different
directories, this may result in the same
title appearing more than once in the track
listings.
