perform an operation, but for some reason it cannot be
performed. When this occurs, one of the two following icons
appears on the screen.
The operation is prohibited by the player.

Notes
•Noise is output if you make digital audio connections to a
receiver or amplifier that does not have a built-in decoder.
Check that the digital audio output format selected in the
Audio 1 menu corresponds to the audio components you have
made connections to (page 41).
•The TV screen size is factory set to present the wide screen
format (16:9 aspect ratio). If you have a standard TV screen
(4:3 aspect ratio), this setting can be changed to match your TV
screen size in the Video menu (page 43).

When a menu screen is displayed
Menu screens are displayed for DVDs that have menu
screens or Video CDs that include PBC (Playback Control).

Turning PBC (Playback Control) on and off

When playing Video CDs with PBC (Playback Control),
PBC is technically on by default and a menu screen is
displayed. Additionally, the menu screen is returned to
when the selected track is complete.
If you would like to turn PBC off so that the menu
screen is not displayed, press STOP 7 when a Video CD
with PBC is selected and then press the number button
of the track you want to play. Please note that a number
of functions such as random and program playback may
not be possible unless PBC is turned off.
