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

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

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