Note: The availability of languages and audio soundtracks varies by disc. Some BD/DVD-Audio discs allow audio track selection with the Audio button, while others require the user to select from the audio setup menu of the disc. When playing a SACD with both multi-channel and stereo contents, the Audio button can be used to switch between the two formats.

The angle mark is also shown on the front panel display.

2. Press and hold the Angle/Zoom button on the remote control to select the desired playing angle.

3. To resume normal playback, hold the Angle/Zoom button until the default angle is displayed.

To change the zoom level, press and hold the Angle/Zoom button on the remote control. Holding down the Angle/Zoom button will switch the zoom level in the following sequence: 2x, 3x, 4x, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4 then back to normal.

The zoom level is reset to 1:1 when the disc is ejected, or when the player is turned off.

Note: The Zoom feature may not be available when certain DVD or Blu-ray Discs are played because the disc author chooses to disable Zoom.

Blu-ray disc menu

1. Blu-ray discs usually contain a top menu and a pop-up menu. The top menu normally appears at the beginning of the playback, after the previews and copyright messages. The Pop-up Menu can be accessed during playback without interruption.

2. During playback, press the Pop-up Menu button to access the pop-up menu. Press the Top Menu button to access the top menu.

3. Navigate the menu using the (￿￿￿￿) Navigation buttons, and then press the Enter button to make the selection.

4. Press the Return button to return to the previous menu. The return location varies by disc.

Memory and automatic resume

The player automatically remembers the current position for a disc when playback is interrupted. Operations such as Open/Eject or turning Power off will cause the player to save the current playing position for that disc. The position is memorised even after turning off the unit or changing the disc.

When the next time the same disc is played back, the player will recognize the saved playing position. Playback will automatically resume from this saved position. However if you wish to cancel the automatic resume and start playback from the beginning, you may press the ￿ button when prompted.

The player can remember playback position for up to five discs. When the sixth disc is memorised, the oldest one is replaced.

Note: Some Blu-ray discs do not support resuming and will always play from the beginning.

Picture-in-Picture and Secondary Audio

Certain Blu-ray discs contain secondary video (Picture-in-Picture/PIP) and secondary audio. This feature is often called BONUSVIEW. When such a disc is played, a Picture-in-Picture mark (PIP Mark) and a Secondary Audio Program Mark (SAP Mark) may be displayed on the screen to alert you to the availability of the secondary audio/video content.

The disc menu usually features interactive controls to turn on/off the Picture-in-Picture video and Secondary Audio Program. Please use those controls to select the desired secondary audio/video content.

There is also a PIP button on the remote control. If the disc menu does not offer interactive Picture-in-Picture controls, please use this button to turn on/off Picture-in-Picture or select from multiple secondary video programs.

Similarly there is a SAP button on the remote control. If the disc menu does not offer interactive secondary audio controls, please use this button to turn on/off Secondary Audio Program or select from multiple secondary audio tracks. Secondary Audio Programs are generally only available when Picture-in-Picture is shown.

Note:

• This function is available only when the discs are recorded with secondary video and audio programs.

• Discs may not always be played back according to the PIP and SAP remote buttons. Certain discs can ignore or override the remote control commands.

• The PIP and SAP Marks on the screen (which alert the user to the presence of these functions on the disc) can be turned off using the Setup Menu of the player.

Some Blu-ray disc titles are released with the BD-Live feature. BD-Live offers extra downloadable contents and additional online interactive programs. The available BD-Live content varies by disc and studio, and may include additional subtitles, commentaries, preview trailers, games, and online chat. The player needs to be connected to the Internet in order to play BD-Live contents.
