downloading it via the Internet. For instance, this
function is capable of playing the original movie as

secondary video.
NOTE
• The available functions differ depending on the
disc.

Title, Chapter and Track

• Blu-ray discs and DVDs are divided into "Titles"
and "Chapters". If the disc has more than one
movie on it, each movie would be a separate
"Title". "Chapters", on the other hand, are
subdivisions of titles. (See Example 1.)
• Audio CDs are divided into "Tracks". You can
think of a "Track" as one tune on an Audio CD.
(See Example 2.)
Example 1: Blu-ray disc or DVD
