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-VCD/VCD (films, music videos
etc.), the discs may carry one or more tracks.
Like audio CDs, S-VCDs/VCDs have a track structure.
S-VCDs/VCDs can be created using the PBC (playback control)
system for track navigation. This depends on the processing 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 made. PBC switches between the
playlist structure (the menu on the S-VCD/VCD) and manual selec-
tion by the user.
The default setting upon delivery is PBC activated. PBC and the pro-
gram info on the S-VCD/VCD predetermine the navigation options.
If the disc has PBC, »PBC« appears in the display.
If PBC is deactivated, the S-VCD/VCD behaves like a normal CD
as regards navigation (with a track structure). The user selects
tracks or titles using »
