Need help - using Panasonic BD30 as transport

Firstly I am a novice in using a Transport + DAC. I am now using Panasonic BD30 Bluray player as a transport for a 2 ch system, feeding into a DIY Audionote DAC. Got some simple questions;

1) when playing audio CD, I can't seem to select a song by the title. I have to scroll song by song. Is there a way around this? (sounds stupid, but no matter what I tried, can't seem to get the numbering to work).

2) when playing Bluray concert via the 2 channel AN DAC, I get somewhat compressed sound, definitely not in the same league as when listening to CD, is this normal? i.e. when downsample to PCM?

Yes I decided to let go the standalone CDP as I wanted to have as few components as possible as well. Not sure if I will be kicking myself for that or not.

Regarding the first point, I can't play, for example track 9 by pressing 9 on the remote (projector screen turned off). I have to press the chapter forward button nine times to get there, very irritating.
