[. . . ] DMC 1000 DIGITAL MEDIA CENTER SAFETY INFORMATION Important Safety Instructions 1. The product's cabinet may be cleaned by gently wiping with a soft cotton or microfiber cloth. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. [. . . ] During playback, press the Play Mode Button to display the Play Mode menu (Figure 28). Figure 28 ­ Play Mode Menu 26 OPERATION With the Repeat cell highlighted, use the F / G Navigation Buttons to cycle through the choices of Repeat Off, Repeat Chapter and Repeat Title. A-B Repeat Play To initiate A-B Repeat Play, press the A-B Repeat Button at the beginning of the section to be repeated. Press the A-B Repeat Button a second time to indicate the end of the passage. Camera Angles Some DVDs include multiple camera-angle views of certain scenes, allowing you to gain a different perspective on the program. If multiple angles are not available on the current disc, or during the current section of the disc, the Prohibit Symbol (Ø) will appear if you try to use this feature. . When multiple-angle scenes are available, the Angle Display will appear on screen (see Figure 32), indicating the current angle and the number of available angles. The Angle Display remains on screen as long as multiple angles are available. Figure 29 ­ A-B Repeat Display The display will indicate the starting and ending times selected for repetitive play, as well as the Title Elapsed time for reference. If you have changed the time display mode to something other than Title Elapsed, the starting and ending times will correspond to that display mode. Audio Soundtracks Many DVDs contain more than one audio soundtrack, which may include different languages, surround sound formats (such as Dolby Digital and DTS) or special commentaries by the director or cast. Although we recommend using the disc's menus to select from the available soundtracks, you may display the current selection by pressing the Audio Button during playback. See Figure 30. Figure 32 ­ Angle Display Audio Playback From the Media Library The DMC 1000's Media Library makes it easy to store all of your audio content in one place for convenient playback in your main home theater room, in three remote "zones" (if you have set up the DMC 1000 as part of a multizone system), on a device connected to a home network, or anywhere else when you transfer the content to portable media. When you first turn on the DMC 1000, the assumption is that you will most likely want to listen to content stored in your Media Library, and the Main Menu (see Figure 33) is configured that way. Figure 30 ­ Audio Display Use the F / G Navigation Buttons to cycle through the available audio soundtracks, and press the Enter Button when the desired option is displayed. Although we recommend using the disc's menu system to turn subtitling on or off and to select a language, you may also do so by pressing the Subtitle Button. The Subtitle Display (see Figure 31) will appear. Figure 33 ­ Main Menu Press the Enter Button to select the highlighted "Play" option, and the DMC 1000 will offer you a variety of sorting options. Large music collections may be easier to manage when sorted by artist or album. As shown in Figure 33, you may select from one of six possible sorts, or views, of the Media Library. Cover Art: Displays a mosaic of album covers retrieved by Gracenote MusicID when the DMC 1000 is connected to the Internet. Cover art may be organized alphabetically by name, by artist or in the order added, starting with the most recent additions. As described below, use the F / G/D/E Navigation Buttons to move the "magnifying glass" to the desired album, and press the Enter Button to see the playback options. The tracks may be organized alphabetically by name, artist, album or in the order added, starting with the most recent additions. 27 Figure 31 ­ Subtitle Display Use the F / G Navigation Buttons to cycle through the available subtitle language options (including the Off option to remove subtitles from display), and press the Enter Button when the desired option appears. OPERATION Artists: Displays all artists in alphabetical order. Select an artist and press the Enter Button to view his or her albums. Select a genre and press the Enter Button to view all artists tagged with that genre.
