GLOSSARY
With the DVD 38, however, you have two options when playing most
discs. Pressing the Stop Button once will stop the playback, but it actually
puts the unit in the Resume mode. This means that you can turn the
machine off and, when you press the Play Button the next time, the disc
will resume playback from the point on the disc where the Stop Button
was pressed. This is helpful if you are watching a movie and must
interrupt your viewing session but wish to pick up where you left off.
Pressing the Stop Button twice will stop the machine in a traditional
manner and, when the disc is played again, it will start from the begin-
ning. In Resume mode, the Harman Kardon screen will appear, and the
RESUME message will appear in the Information Display.
The resume function is not available for WMA files. For DVDs, CDs, MP3
files, JPEG files, and VCDs with PBC (Playback Control) only, the resume
function will be retained even after the DVD 38 has been placed in
Standby mode by pressing the Standby/On Switch, but not after the unit
has been unplugged from AC power.
Title: For a DVD, a title is defined as an entire movie or program. There
may be as many chapters within a title as the producers decide to
include. Most discs include only one title, but some may have more than
one, to give you a “Double Feature” presentation or to include other
special features. Press the Title Button to see a listing of the titles on a
disc. When a disc has only one title, pressing the Title Button may show
a list of the chapters.
WMA Files: WMA (Windows Media ® Audio) is an audio compression
format that was developed by the Microsoft ® Corporation for use with its
Windows Media Player and other devices. WMA files can be even smaller
in size than MP3 files, while maintaining similar quality. The DVD 38 is
capable of playing WMA files stored on a disc. Although Windows Media
Player uses other file formats, the DVD 38 is only capable of playing
WMA files that end in the “.wma” extension.
