-<note important>This section is under construction</note>+Whenever you start playing a DVD, a new menu item appears on the menu bar. This DVD menu item allows you to select several options which are specific to this medium. 
 +<figure "The DVD Menu"> 
 +{{:apps:parole:dvd-chapters.png?nolink&|}} 
 +</figure> 
 + 
 +Some or all of these options may not be applicable to the DVD you are playing. It depends on whether the DVD was authored with that type of content. Each option is explained in more detail below. 
 + 
 +? DVD Menu 
 +! If the DVD has a main or title menu, clicking this option suspends playback and displays that menu. You can then select an item from the menu to play that choice, or you can click **DVD Menu** again and playback will resume where you left off previously. 
 +! If the DVD has no menus, this option will restart playback from the beginning. 
 +? Title Menu 
 +! This option differs slightly from **DVD menu**. It will also display the DVD's main menu if one exists but your only option is then to select an item from that menu. 
 +! If the DVD has no **Title Menu**, this option will restart playback from the beginning. 
 +? Audio Menu 
 +! Displays a selection of audio tracks to choose from. For example, some DVDs have multiple audio tracks in different languages. 
 +? Angle menu 
 +! Allows you to choose different camera angles. 
 +? Chapters 
 +! Brings up a sub-menu of chapter numbers if they are available on the DVD. Select a chapter and playback will jump to that point. 
 +! When you play a DVD containing chapters, those chapters' numbers will appear in the playlist pane if it is visible. However, you must use the **DVD** menu item to switch to those chapters. You can't switch to them by clicking on them in the playlist. Also, the buttons at the bottom of the playlist are all disabled during DVD playback.
