About Disc Contents■
BD Video

1 Version 1.1), such as picture-in-picture, and BD-LIVE (page 19).
For the BD video discs compatible with BONUSVIEW/BD-LIVE, you
can enjoy additional contents by copying the data from the discs or
downloading it via the Internet. For instance, this function is capable
of playing the original movie as the primary video while playing video
commentary from the lm director on a small screen as a 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
