Using Bookmarks

Bookmarks are a feature of the DVD 21 that allows you to mark up to nine different points on a disc and to quickly return to those points later. The Bookmarks feature works on both DVD and CD discs.

To Enter a Bookmark, Follow These Steps:

1.While a disc is playing, press STATUS on the remote.

2.Use the ARROW (M or N) on the remote until the Mark icon is highlighted and press ENTER, the Bookmark menu appears.

3.Move the cursor with the ARROW (L) to the SET line. When you reach the scene you want to mark, press ENTER.

4.To add any mark, move the cursor with the ARROW (L) to the ”SET” line (if not so already), then move it to any free frame with the ARROW ( N) and press ENTER when the scene you want to mark is reached.

5.Press STATUS or move the cursor to EXIT (far right) and press ENTER to return to the Banner Display or press CLEAR on the remote to make the Status Bar disappear from the screen.

Recalling a Bookmarked Scene:

1.While playing a disc, press STATUS on the remote, the Status Bar appears.

2.Press the ARROW (M or N) on the remote, until the Mark icon is highlighted.

3.Press ENTER.

4.The cursor automatically will highlight the first mark in the ”JUMP” line of the Bookmark menu.

5.Use the ARROW (M or N) on the remote to select the bookmarked scene you want to acti- vate.

6.Press ENTER to go to the bookmark.

7.Press STATUS or move the cursor to EXIT (far right) and press ENTER to return to the Status Bar. To make the Status Bar disappear from the screen, press CLEAR on the remote.

Note: If all 9 bookmarks are in use, you can still mark new scenes, but the previous bookmarks will be erased.

Clearing a Bookmark

The bookmarks are cleared each time a disc is removed from the player or when the power is turned off completely (not to Standby only).

You may also clear all bookmarks by moving the cursor to ”CANCEL” and pressing ENTER.

Changing the Audio Track

Please remember you can only access the various Audio Track, Subtitle, Angle and Repeat Displays when playing a disc. Also, each Banner Display feature is only available if the disc was created with that particular feature (i.e., if you select the Subtitle icon, you won’t be able to change the subtitle language unless the author of the disc created the disc with subtitles).

DVD discs may contain a variety of audio tracks, including foreign languages, special commen- taries, descriptive video for the sight impaired, and various digital formats. In normal play, the unit will always look for the default setting for the audio track, but you may change the audio track at any time using the AUDIO button on the remote control.

While playing a disc, press AUDIO on the remote control once to see the Audio display with the current audio language and format. Press repeatedly to select other languages and/or audio formats.

Notes :

The audio feature only works if the disc was created with multiple audio tracks.

Some DVD's do not not allow direct selection of audio during playback. Instead, you must use the audio set-up section of the disc menu.

When you choose an audio language with the Audio button on the remote control, you only override the audio language setting in the DVD Player’s main menu (Audio menu within Setup menu) temporarily.

Changing the Subtitle Language

DVD discs may contain a variety of subtitles. In normal play, the unit will always look for the default setting for the subtitle language, but you may temporarily change that language at any time using the SUBTITLE button on the remote.

While playing a disc, press SUBTITLE on the remote control once to see the Subtitle display with the current subtitle language. Press repeatedly to select other subtitle languages.

Notes :

The subtitle feature only works if the disc was created with subtitles.

Some DVDs force the player to bring up subtitles to the screen even if OFF was selected. This is no failure of the unit but the intention of the disc´s author.

Changing the Camera Angle

A special feature of the DVD format is its capability of showing more than one view, or camera angle, of the same scene. This feature enables you to become the director, selecting the view of a scene that you wish. Note, however, that this feature does not appear on many discs and, when it does appear, it will typically be for only certain scenes and not for the entire disc’s program.

To see if a disc contains multiple angles, check the disc’s cover or jacket. When the DVD´s title or chapter played currently does contain scenes with multiple angles, the multi-angle symbol in the upper right corner of the front panel display will flash. The multi-angle feature is only available when this symbol is flashing.

When the multi-angle symbol flashes, you can press ANGLE on the remote control. The Angle display will appear with the number of the camera angle currently being viewed and the total number of angles on the disc.

Press ANGLE again to change camera angle. There can be up to 9 different camera angles for a scene.
