How to Repeat a Specific Portion of a CD or DVD With the Sony DVPNS50P CD/DVD Player

The Sony CD/DVD player allows for several different playback and repeat functions. Sometimes you want to repeat specific scenes of your favorite films or parts of a song. While basic repeat functions allow you to repeat entire tracks and chapters of your favorite music or movie discs, it is also possible to repeat a specific portion of a CD or DVD with the Sony DVPNS50P CD/DVD player. This function is commonly referred to as A-B Repeat.

Things You'll Need

• CD or DVD
• Sony DVPNS50P CD/DVD Player

Instructions

1. Put a CD or DVD in the player. While the disc is playing, press "Display" on your remote control. The Control Menu toolbar will appear on the screen.

2. Using the arrow keys on your remote, choose "A-B Repeat" and press "Enter."

3. The A-B Repeat display toolbar will appear. Use the arrow keys on your remote to highlight the word "Set" and then press "Enter" again.

4. You will now be asked to set the "A" and "B" points so that the machine knows when to start and stop the repetitive loop. As the video or song plays, press "Enter" at the point where you would like the repeated selection to begin. This sets your "A" point.

5. When your video or song reaches the point where you would like the repetitive loop to stop, press "Enter" again. This sets your "B" point. Your player will now play the selected material repetitively until you stop it.

6. To end the repetitive playback, press "Clear."

Tips & Warnings

• Activating the A-B Repeat function voids several other preset playback functions, including shuffle.

• If your machine is unplugged or loses power, you will need to reset the A-B Repeat settings. These settings are not stored in memory.

• A-B Repeat works best with music and video files. It may not work with discs used for storing pictures and non-media files.
