Repeat Play
The DVD 47 offers several repeat functions for
CDs that allow you to take advantage of the
capacity of the unit for unattended playback:

• Repeat Program: Repeats the current playlist

if Programmed Order has been selected at the
Playlist setting.

• Repeat 1 Track: For CDs, SACDs, VCDs, MP3s

and WMAs, repeats the track or file currently
being played until the disc is manually stopped.
The Repeat and 1 indicators will light in the
front-panel display, and the 

REPEAT 1

icon

will appear on screen.

• Repeat Disc: For CDs, SACDs, VCDs, MP3s,

WMAs, and JPEGs, repeats the entire disc until
play is manually stopped. The Repeat and All
indicators will light in the front-panel display,
and the 

REPEAT ALL

icon will appear in

the Status Bar.

• Repeat Folder: For MP3s, WMAs and JPEGs,

repeats all tracks within the current folder until
play is manually stopped. The Repeat 

H indi-

cator will light in the front-panel display, and
the 

REPEAT FOLDER

icon will appear on

screen.

• Repeat A-B: Repeats any selected portion of

the disc until the disc is manually stopped (see
below for more information).

To select any Repeat mode (other than Repeat 
A-B):

While a disc is playing, press the Repeat
Button

 on the remote. The Repeat icon will

appear on screen, indicating the new repeat
mode. Each press of the Repeat Button

will cycle through the available repeat modes. To
end Repeat play, continue pressing the Repeat
Button

 until the Off mode is selected.

The Repeat A-B function allows you to select any
portion of a CD or SACD and have it repeat
continually until the unit is manually stopped.

To initiate a Repeat A-B playback sequence,
follow these steps while a disc is playing:

1. Press the A-B Repeat Button

P on the

remote when you want to choose the begin-
ning point; the Repeat icon appears in the
upper right corner of the screen, followed by

A -

to indicate the beginning of the passage

to be repeated.

2. Press the A-B Repeat Button

P again to

choose the end point. Repeat A-B has been
set, and the A-B section will be played contin-
uously.

3. Press the A-B Repeat Button

P on the

remote again to cancel Repeat A-B mode.

The Random Play function will play all of the
tracks on a CD in a random order, as selected by
the DVD 47. Once the DVD 47 has played all of
the tracks on the disc once, it will stop.

You may select the random mode by pressing the
Random Button

O on the remote. Each press

of the Random Button

O will toggle the

setting between “Off” and “On”, meaning that
the remaining tracks on the disc will be played in
random order.

The Random Indicator 

J in the Front-Panel

 will light any time the

Random setting is on.

During CD playback, some listeners may prefer to
turn off the DVD 47’s video circuitry. Although
the video section is electrically isolated from the
audio section, some users may prefer to turn the
video displays off during audio playback to
prevent any possibility of interference between
audio and video. You may also wish to turn the
video display off if you find the menu system
distracting or unnecessary during CD playback.

IMPORTANT NOTE: It is strongly recommended
that plasma video display owners use the Video
Off feature to avoid burn-in.

To turn the video displays off while a CD is
playing, simply press the Video Off Button
Q. Press the button again to restore the video
output. The V-Off Indicator

G will light to

remind you that the video displays have been
turned off. Note that the video output will
automatically be restored each time the DVD 47
is turned on.

SACD discs are a vast improvement in sound
quality over the original compact disc. Due to
improvements in laser technology, SACDs allow
information to be packed more densely on the
disc, which in turn means that more information
than ever may be stored on a single disc. The
benefit to the audiophile listener is improved
resolution and quality of 2-channel recordings,
and a whole new world of multichannel audio
recordings.

Some earlier SACD discs contain only a two-
channel program. Newer discs may contain both
a 2-channel and a multichannel version of the
same materials. As described on page 22, a
setting in the 

Audio Setup

submenu is

used to select between 2-channel and multi-
channel SACD playback, or to select the CD layer
of the disc. Check the jacket of your disc to
ascertain which formats are available.

SACD playback requires the use of the 
6-Channel Audio Outputs

 or the Analog

 (for 2-channel playback

only). If only the HDMI

, Optical  or

 are used,

no sound will be heard.

Random play and programmed playlists are not 
supported for SACD discs. Also, it is not possible
to clear the Player Information screens from the
display, although you may press the Video Off
Button

Q to turn off the video display alto-

gether.
