Disc Types
[ DVD-Audio ]
DVD-Audios are divided into several large sections called
"groups" and smaller sections called "tracks." Numbers are
alloted to these sections. These numbers are called "group
numbers" and "track numbers."
Example
Group 1
Track 1
Track 2
Track 3
[ DVD-Video ]
Data on a DVD is divided into sections called "titles," and
then into subsections called "chapters," each of which is
given a title or chapter number. Playback conditions are
preset on some DVD-Video discs, and these playback
conditions take priority over user operations on this player.
If a function you selected does not run as desired, refer to
the manual accompanying the disc.
