Surround: Select this setting when using equipment with a Dolby Surround Pro Logic decoder. In this setting the 5.1 audio channels (Dolby Digital, MPEG-2) are downmixed to a Surround-compatible 2-channel output.

3D Sound: In a set-up without rear speakers (analogue stereo output), this option remixes the six channels of digital surround (Dolby Digital, MPEG-2) into a two speaker output, while retaining all of the original audio information. The result is the listening sensation of being surrounded by multiple speakers.

Feature settings

Access Control

Parental Level - Allows the conditional presentation of DVD discs containing Parental Level information. Change country - Allows conditional presentation of DVD-Video discs containing country information. Change code - To change the pin code.

Adapt disc format

This option is only available when a DVD+RW or DVD+R disc recorded on a different brand of recorder is loaded. You can adapt the menu to your own recorder.

A DVD+RW video disc that has been recorded on a different type or brand of recorder can be played, but may not provide all features commonly available to DVD+RW discs, such as the on-screen disc bar, the disc settings menu, the title settings menu, and editing. If the disc is not write-protected, the disc format can be adapted to the own recorder, after which these functions are available.

Status box

The status box displays the current status of the recorder and the disc type loaded (See ‘Operation’ - ‘On-screen display information’). You can switch it On or Off.

Off = always Off.

On = displayed together with the system menu bar or displayed temporarily (disappears after time-out) when changing the playback or record status.

Factory setting is ‘On’.

Auto resume

The Auto resume setting only applies to pre-recorded DVD-video and Video CD discs only - not only to the disc in the recorder but also to the last twenty discs you have played.

If Autoresume is set to ‘On’, playback will start from the point where it was stopped the last time the disc was played.

When Autoresume is set to ‘Off’, the recorder will start playing from the beginning of a disc. In this case you

can still resume when

 

appears on screen by

 

pressing 2 PLAY. Factory setting is ‘On’.

Low Power Standby

If Low Power Standby is ‘On’, the recorder will consume minimum power in standby mode.

Factory setting is ‘Off’.

Notes :

When the recorder is in low power standby mode:

-the output of the equipment connected to EXT 2 will not be passed through to the TV set on EXT 1,

-the Display will be Off,

-the Standby indicator on the recorder will still light up in standby mode.
