Playing media
This section explains basic operations, including playback, pausing and
stopping.
This explanation assumes that you have already made necessary connec-
tions, turned the unit on, loaded a video or audio disc or other medium
that contains video or audio files or connected to a network drive.
Automatic playback overview
p With this unit, when Auto Playback (Home Screen >
Settings > System) is set to On (Repeat On) or On (Repeat
Off), disc playback will start automatically in the following
cases.
o When a disc is loaded (and the disc tray closes)
o When the unit is turned on (power-on-play function)
p When Auto Playback is Off or playback does not start,
select Disc on the Home Screen, and press the ENTER or 7
button.
ATTENTION
o When the automatic playback function is on, playback will
start automatically when a disc is loaded. For this reason,
be careful during the following operations.
i Making settings on the HOME screen
i Playing files on an SD card, USB flash drive or network
drive
o Automatic playback is not supported for SD cards, USB
flash drives or network drives. This function can only be
used with discs that support it.
Playing video discs
p If a disc that has never been played before is loaded, it will
start playing from the beginning.
p If Last Memory (Home Screen > Settings > System) is set
to On (the default is On), when a disc that has been played
before is loaded, a screen will appear to confirm whether or
not to resume playing it from the position where it was last
stopped. Press ENTER button to play from the last position
where stopped, or press RETURN button to play from the
beginning. If no action is taken for five seconds while the
confirmation screen is open, playback will resume from the
last position where stopped.
* This only works with purchased or rental video discs.
Moreover, the unit can save positions for five discs maximum
with this function. When the total number of discs would
exceed five, the record for the disc played least recently will
be replaced by a record for the most recent disc.
Operating from disc top menus and pop-up
menus
When video discs have menus or pop-up menus, they can be
shown and used for a variety of operations.
( The contents of menus and pop-up menus depend on the
programming of the discs.)
p Press the TOP MENU button to show the title menu. If this is
done when playing or paused, playback will stop.
Press the TITLE/POP UP button when media is playing or
paused to open the title menu without stopping.
Use the cursor buttons to move among items in the title
menu, and use the ENTER button to confirm selections.
