Introduction, Your portable DVD player

INTRODUCTION

Your portable DVD player

Your portable DVD player plays digital video discs conforming to the universal DVD Video standard. With it, you will be able to enjoy full-length movies with true cinema picture quality, and stereo or multichannel sound (depending on the disc and on your playback set-up).

The unique features of DVD-Video, such as selection of soundtrack and subtitle languages, and of different camera angles (again depending on the disc), are all included.

What’s more, parental lock lets you decide which discs your children will be able to see. You will find your player remarkably easy to use with the On-Screen Display and player display in combination with the remote control.
