next lower station with acceptable signal strength and stop. The Lower Display Line Ewill indicate AUTO TUNED. When an FM Stereo station is tuned, the display will read AUTO ST TUNED. When the tuner is in Manual/Mono mode, you may press and hold this button to scan downward through the frequencies, and the tuner will stop immediately when you release this button, even if no acceptable signal is detected at that frequency.

See page 64 for more information on using the tuner.

When an optical player source, such as the internal DVD changer, is in use, press this button to search quickly in reverse through the current track or chapter. Depending on the type of disc used in the internal DVD changer, each additional press will cycle through the available scan speeds as follows (available scan speeds may differ for external optical source devices):

DVD-Audio and DVD-Video discs: 2x, 4x, 16x, 100x

CD and VCD discs: 2x, 4x, 8x

MP3 and WMA discs: 2x, 4x, 8x, 16x

MRecord/Stop/Pause Transport

Controls: These buttons have no func- tion in the System or Screen modes, but are used with sources such as the inter- nal disc changer or external DVD or CD players, tape or digital recorders or VCRs. When the internal disc changer is in use, pressing the Stop button once will place a DVD in resume mode, meaning that you may press the Play Button eto con- tinue playing the disc from the point where it was stopped. If you press the Stop button twice, play will resume from the beginning of the disc. Pressing the Pause Button wwill pause play, allowing you to step frame by frame for- ward through a DVD with each additional press of the Pause Button w. Press the Play Button e, to resume normal play, or press the Stop Button wto stop.

NStatus/Settings Button: This but- ton has different functions, depending on which device is in use.

Press it to display the CVR700 system’s status, or an external DVD recorder’s status.

When the internal disc changer or tuner, or an external cable television box is in use, press this button to access the cur- rent settings for the device.

For digital VCRs and game consoles, this button performs the Back function. For some PVRs/DVRs this button performs the Instant Replay function.

OTitle/Freeze Button: This button’s function differs, depending on whether the internal disc changer (DVD/Main mode) or the Screen mode is active. To use this button, be careful to press only on the upper portion of the button, as other functions are accessed by pressing on the lower portion of the button.

In DVD/Main mode, press this button while a disc is playing to display the cur- rent title number. Press it again to jump to the next numbered title on the disc. This function may be available even when the disc’s software prohibits title- jumping using the Forward/Reverse Skip Buttons Jh. Many DVD-Audio discs require you to press this button to access the disc menu.

In Screen mode, you may use this button to pause playback of the video picture while allowing the audio playback to con- tinue uninterrupted, enabling you to cap- ture an instance or frame of the video.

PRandom/Letterbox Button: This button’s function differs, depending on whether the internal disc changer (DVD/Main mode) or the Screen mode is active. To use this button, be careful to press only on the upper portion of the button, as other functions are accessed by pressing on the lower portion of the button.

In DVD/Main mode, press this button for playback in random order. The Random function is not available when playing DVD-Audio or DVD-Video discs unless a playlist has been programmed, and it is not available at all for JPEG discs.

In Screen mode, when using the internal DVD changer, this button is only active if the Auto Resize feature is turned off via the SCREEN MENU (see page 57). This button performs the Letterbox function, which enables you to adjust the screen to eliminate black bars that may appear on the top and bottom or sides of the image due to the aspect ratio of the program material differing from the 16:9 aspect ratio of the CVPD50. In most cases, the CVR700’s video processor is able to auto- matically detect the aspect ratio setting

of the program material and adjust the display automatically to fill the screen. However, in some cases the material may be a movie displayed in widescreen (2.35:1) format, or the material may not contain embedded information necessary for the CVR700 to make an automatic adjustment. The available letterbox modes are:

16:9 – This setting is used to display 16:9 program material in the full-screen 16:9 mode on the CVPD50. This setting will also apply a linear (consistent) stretch to a 4:3 picture.

4:3 LTRBOX TO 16:9 – This mode is used to adjust an image which is designed to display a 16:9 movie on a 4:3 screen. In order to preserve the full width of the movie on a narrower screen, the image is reduced in size and black bars appear above and below it. This setting zooms in on the image, enabling it to fill the CVPD50’s 16:9 screen without losing any portion of the image. The image is simply enlarged so that its two sides fit the edges of the CVPD50 16:9 screen and the black bars on top and bottom are cropped off. The image is stretched in a linear fashion (evenly throughout the frame).

2.35LB TO 16:9 NL – This mode is used to adjust an image from a widescreen film which is actually at a wider ratio than the CVPD50’s 16:9 ratio. In order to fit on the smaller screen, the image is compressed in a nonlinear fashion, but no portion of the image is lost.

2.35LB TO 16:9 CROPPED – This mode is an alternative adjustment for a widescreen film. The image is not com- pressed or scaled in any way, but the outer edges are cropped, sacrificing a slight amount of the original content in exchange for 100% accurate image pro- portions.

4:3 HDTV TO 16:9 – As HDTV is new to the broadcast industry and there is still a considerable amount of older 4:3 stan- dard recording and broadcast equipment in use, 4:3 material is sometimes broad- cast in HD 16:9 format with black or other color bars on its sides. Since these bars are a part of the actual picture, con- ventional picture resizing techniques do not work in eliminating them. This setting is specifically designed to address this problem. It first crops the bars off the sides of the 16:9 picture to render it a 4:3 picture, and then performs a natural-look- ing nonlinear stretch to fill the entire 16:9 screen.
