SETUP MENU OPTIONS
The Setup Menu of the DVD player presents many setup and configuration options. For most users, the
default configuration works well enough and there is no need to change the settings. However if you
need to configure the DVD player to perfectly match your home theater settings and viewing preference,
please refer to the following sections for details about each configuration option. The basics of how to
operate the setup menu system have already been discussed in the “Installation” section of this guide
on page 17.

2. Screen Saver (on/off): To turn on/off the screen saver function. When the screen saver is on,
a moving logo will appear instead of the static image after 2 minutes of inactivity. This is
designed to minimize the burn-in issue for plasma and CRT display devices.
3. Background: To select what background screen the DVD player shows when it is not playing a
disc. The available options are:
• Default – Show the factory-installed background screen.
• Captured – Use the customer-captured image as the background screen.
4. Dimmer Control: To control the front panel resolution indicators and Vacuum Fluorescent
Display (VFD) information window. In case you feel that the display becomes a distraction to
your enjoyment of the video, this option allows you to dim it or turn it off. The available options
are:
• On - Both the VFD window and the resolution indicators are on.
