The default seek time is 15 seconds. You can change the seek time from the settings menu.

Move to the start position using the FF or REW buttons, the seek bar or the jog dial, and then touch the A button.

Move to the end position in the same way, and then touch the B button.

Touch the Repeat ON/OFF button to toggle repeat mode.

If repeat mode is on, playback between the position "A" and "B" will be repeated.

The position "A" and "B" can be reset by touching & holding the A and B buttons, respectively.

(4). Select Audio track

If the video file contains two or more audio tracks, you can select the audio tracks by touching the Select audio track button.

The selection will be kept even after power is off.
