Title, chapter and track
DVDs are divided into “titles” and “chapters”. If the disc has more than one movie on it,
each movie would be a separate “title”. “Chapters” are subdivisions of titles.
Example: DVD
Audio CDs are divided into “tracks”. You can think of a “track” as one tune on an audio CD.
Example: Audio CD

Numbers identify each title, chapter, and track on a disc. Most discs have these num-
bers recorded on them.

Discs that cannot be played
1. You cannot play illegally produced discs.
2. You cannot play scratched discs.
3. You cannot play discs that are dusty, soiled or marked with fingerprints.
If the playing surface of a disc is soiled or scratched, the system may display
indicator
on the screen and fail to play the disc correctly.
(Refer to the instructions on page 5 and clean discs before attempting to play
them.)
Whilst a disc is playing, soiling or scratches on the disc may disrupt the image
(appearing as blocks on the screen). When the image is disrupted, the system
automatically restores the correct image after 2 or 3 seconds.
Note 2:
The specific playback functionality for some DVD discs is determined by the disc manu-
facturer. Because this system plays disc data in accordance with the disc manufacturer’s
guidelines, some functions may not be available on some discs. Be sure to read the
instructions provided with the disc.
The “Prohibited” indicator
or
displayed during operation indicates that
such manufacturer-imposed restrictions apply.
