Advanced DVD and VCD features
This section explains the more sophisticated DVD and VCD
features, such as special playback modes. The operations
described here are not exactly the same for DVDs and VCDs,
but are similar enough to make it appropriate to group them
together.
Note that many VCDs have a single track, so some operations
involving tracks will not be relevant.
Jumping to a particular point
Press the
'Search' menu:
If the disc is playing, then the elapsed and total times on the
disc are shown in the top right of the page.
A jump can be performed using different specifiers: jump to a
particular time or to a specified chapter/track on the disc.
Time
Highlight the 'Time' field and enter the time in hours, minutes
and seconds, then press
the screen and playback starts from the time specified. Invalid
time entries are ignored.
Title/Chapter
(Applies to DVDs only) To jump to a title or chapter, highlight the
title/chapter position and enter the number of the title/chapter
to jump to, before pressing
chapter within a different title to the current one by entering
a value into both fields. Note that specifying a title without a
chapter will jump to the first chapter in the title.
Track
(VCDs only) To jump to a specified track on a VCD, enter the
track number in the 'Track' field, then press
VCDs have only one track.
Closing the Search menu
When displayed, this menu screen can be closed again
by pressing the
