Playing discs

Switching audio language/ channels

When playing a DVD and DivX video disc recorded with dialog in two or more languages, you can switch audio language during playback.

When playing a VR format DVD-RW disc recorded with dual-mono audio, you can switch between the main, sub, and mixed channels during playback.

When playing a Video CD/Super VCD, you can switch between stereo, just the left channel or just the right channel.

1Press AUDIO repeatedly to select an audio language/channel option.

The language/channel information is shown on-screen.

Note

Some DVD discs only allow you to change audio language from the disc menu. Press TOP MENU or MENU to access.

To set DVD audio language preferences, see Language settings on page 36.

Zooming the screen

Using the zoom feature you can magnify a part of the screen by a factor of 2 or 4, while watching a DVD, DivX video title or Video CD/ Super VCD or playing a JPEG disc.

1During playback, use the ZOOM button to select the zoom factor (Normal, 2x or 4x).

Since DVD, Video CD/Super VCD, DivX video title and JPEG pictures have a fixed resolution, picture quality will deteriorate, especially at 4x zoom. This is not a malfunction.

2Use the cursor buttons to change the zoomed area.

You can change the zoom factor and the zoomed area freely during playback.

If the navigation square at the top of the screen disappears, press ZOOM again to display it.

Switching camera angles

Some DVD discs feature scenes shot from two or more angles—check the disc box for details.

When a multi-angle scene is playing, a icon appears on screen to let you know that other angles are available (this can be switched off if you prefer—see Display settings on page 37).

1During playback (or when paused), press ANGLE to switch angle.

Displaying disc information

Various track, chapter and title information, such as the elapsed and remaining playing time can be displayed on-screen while a disc is playing.

1To show/switch/hide the information displayed, press DISPLAY repeatedly.

When a disc is playing, the information appears at the top of the screen. Keep pressing DISPLAY to change the displayed information.
