SACD AND CD PLAYBACK
SACD AND CD PLAYBACK 31
Many functions of the DVD 47 operate the same way
for SACD and CD playback as for DVD play; however,
there are some important differences. When an SACD
or CD is loaded, the DVD 47 will automatically display
the Player Information menu. Status banners are not
available during SACD/CD play. A greater variety of
playback options are available during play, including
programmed playlists (CD only). These and other fea-
tures unique to CD play are described in this section.
Using the Player Information Menu
The DVD 47’s Player Information menu displays disc
information and enables you to program playback
modes. Press the Info Button
i to display the
Player Information menu (Figure 14).

which may be easily accessed by using the

icon, and pressing the Enter Button t to select it.
These submenus are different from the Setup menus
in that many items are for display only and cannot be
changed using the menu system.

■ Disc: This line displays the disc type, such as
CD-DA (Compact Disc Digital Audio).
■ Audio: This line displays the type of audio recorded
on the disc, usually Stereo.
■ Playlist: For CDs only, you may choose to play
the tracks in order as they appear on the disc,
or you may program a playlist containing some
or all of the tracks in the order in which you wish
to hear them. This line indicates which of these
two modes has been selected. In order to
change this setting, you will need to access the
PROGRAM submenu as described below.
■ Repeat: With this line highlighted, press the
Enter Button
t or the Repeat Button 5 to
activate Repeat mode. Each press will change the
repeat mode from Repeat 1 (to repeat one track)
to Repeat All (to repeat all tracks on the disc) to
Repeat Off.
■ Random: For CDs only, with this line highlighted,
press the Enter Button
t or the Random
Button 7 to activate Random mode. Each

gram steps and the track programmed for each
step will appear at the bottom of the screen. You
