DISC INFORMATION (cont.)

File Structure of Discs

DVD VIDEO

Typically, DVD VIDEO discs are made up of larger units called
“titles.” Each title has a number (title number) that can be used to
select desired titles. Titles are further divided into units called
“chapters.” Each chapter has a number (chapter number) that
can also be used to select desired chapters. Note that some discs
are not divided into titles and chapters.

Audio CD/Video CD

Typically, Audio CD discs are divided into separate tracks each
containing one song. Each track is assigned a number. For
example, the third track is Track 3. The same is true for Video
CD discs.

NOTE:

Video CD discs that support Playback Control (PBC)
The still image or motion image which follows a menu screen is
called a “scene.” Each scene has a scene number.
For more details, refer to “Locating a Desired Scene Using the
Menu of a Video CD/SVCD with Playback Control (PBC)
Function” (

pg. 31).

Placing a Disc

1

Open the disc tray.

Press x on the DVD deck to open the disc tray.

● The unit’s power comes on

automatically.

● Do not block the disc tray with

your hand while it is opening or
closing as this may result in
hardware failure.

● Do not place unplayable discs or

any object other than a disc in
the disc tray.

● Do not press down strongly on the disc tray or place any heavy

objects on it.

2

Place the disc.

Place the disc in the disc tray with
the label side facing up.

● Since disc size changes depending on

the disc to be played back, be sure to
correctly align the disc with the
grooves for its size. If the disc is not in
its groove, it may be scratched or
otherwise damaged.

● To insert an 8 cm disc, place it according to the inner groove.

3

Press x on the DVD deck to close the disc tray.

● Pressing 4 also closes the disc tray.

● Playback begins automatically if an auto-playback DVD disc is

loaded. Although the VHS deck is selected, the DVD deck is
selected automatically (except when the VHS deck is in the
timer mode or the Automatic Satellite Programme Recording
mode.)

Care and Handling of Discs

How to handle discs

When handling a disc, do not
touch the surface of the disc.
Since discs are made of
plastic, they are easily
damaged. If a disc gets dirty,
dusty, scratched or warped,
the images and sound will not
be picked up correctly, and such a disc may cause the unit to
malfunction.

Label side

Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesive
on its surface.

Storage

Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled on
top of one another without their protective cases, they can be
damaged. Do not put discs in a location where they may be
exposed to direct sunlight, or in a place where the humidity or
temperature is high. Avoid leaving discs in your car!

Maintenance of discs

If there are fingerprints or other dirt
adhering to a disc, wipe with a soft dry
cloth, moving from the center outwards.
If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a
cloth moistened with water. Never use
record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any
anti-static agents.

CAUTION

Sometimes during playback, noise or images may be garbled.
This is sometimes due to the disc. (It may not be up to
industry standards.)
These symptoms are caused by the discs, not by the
malfunction of the unit.
