ters.
With video material, a single work (movie etc.)
usually corresponds to a single title, with differ-
ent scenes corresponding to separate chapters.
With karaoke discs, one song corresponds to
one title.
However, some discs are not organized like this,
so bear this in mind when using the search
function.
Video CD and CD
On CDs and Video CDs, the contents are divided
into tracks. One track usually corresponds to

back operations. It may not be possible to use
functions such as repeat and search.
