Tip to obtain a higher quality picture

Occasionally, some picture noise not usually visible during a normal broadcast may appear on the TV screen while playing a DVD-Video because the high resolution pictures on these discs include a lot of information. While the amount of noise depends on the TV you use, you should generally adjust the TV to reduce

18 sharpness when viewing DVD-Videos.

Press STOP 7 again after stopping playback to clear the location index memory, then press PLAY/PAUSE £/8 to start playback.
