Locating a Scene or Track You Want
Locating a Point by Elapsed
Time (Time Search) Z
This function lets you use elapsed time as a guide to
find a certain point on a VIDEO CD. To use Time
Search function with VIDEO CDs with PBC function
(Ver. 2.0 discs), see the explanation below. "Elapsed"
means the time from the beginning of the disc and is
not the playing time of the current track.
Time Search function is especially useful when playing
discs that have only a few track divisions.
This function cannot be used during Digest Play (see
page 19).
