Unsupported DVD Features

DVD offers many special features, including multiple soundtracks, subtitles, camera angles, and so on. However, not all discs use

all of these features. When you attempt to use

a feature that is not supported by the current disc, for example, you press the remote controller’s [AUDIO] button while playing a disc with only one soundtrack, this icon will appear onscreen, indicating that the disc doesn’t support that feature.

Similarly, if a disc uses features that are not supported by the DV-SP1000/DV-SP1000E, for example, special interactive menu func-

tions, this icon will appear onscreen, indicat-

ing that the feature is not supported by the DV-SP1000/ DV-SP1000E.
