Actually, even with the players that don't have index forward/back buttons, if you turn on track display, it should display the index numbers. It's remarkable to me how important the index numbers are on DVDs, and how completely underused they are on CDs. I guess it's because most CDs are of music short enough that index numbers are irrelevant -- it's only classical music where the pieces are long enough to merit it. In movies and TV shows on DVD, though, it's essential (and the whole basis for the scene breakdowns that most DVDs have). Is my DVD player unusual in being able to play audio CDs? If not, playing the CDs with indexes on them on a DVD player might give one the access needed. -- David W.
