Playing Discs
—Continued
You can search DVD-Video discs by title or chapter
number, or by time; DVD-Audio discs can be searched
by group or track number; SACDs by track number, CDs
and Video CD by track number or time.
Important:
• Search functions are not available with Video CD in
PBC mode, or with WMA/MP3 discs.
Use the random play function to play titles or chapters
(DVD-Video), Groups (DVD-Audio), or tracks (DVD-

same track/title/chapter may play more than once.)
You can set the random play option when a disc is play-

discs, or while a DVD disc menu is being displayed.
• You can’t use random play together with program or
repeat play.
You can select directly the Random mode by pressing
