Note: Displays on your DMR (menus and banners):

Disc menus – Each DVD disc offers a menu, the layout and order of which depend on the editor of the disc. The main menu of the disc is displayed on the screen when a DVD disc is loaded and play begins.You can also display or remove the main menu of the disc at any time by pressing the MENU key.

Player banners – While a disc is playing back you can display or remove banners using the INFO key on the remote control unit. The banners appear in the form of a succession of icons at the top of the screen.

Player menus – Your DMR has menus enabling you to use functions that are not accessible using the remote control unit keys. The player menu is displayed when the DMR is not playing a disc (in STOP mode).

Settings will only function if the corresponding function has been provided by the editor. For instance, if you select the subtitle icon in the banner, subtitles will only appear if they actually exist on the disc. Check the sleeve to see what subtitles are provided. If a menu or icon appears in “grey” it means that the function is not available
