Switching camera angles

DVD-Video

Some DVD-Video discs feature scenes shot from two or more angles — check the disc box for details: it should be marked with a icon if it contains multi-angle scenes. When a multi-angle scene is playing, the same icon appears on screen to let you know that other angles are available (this can be switched off if you prefer — see Angle Indicator on page 114).

ANGLE

Switch the camera angle.

The angle number is displayed on- screen.

If the disc was paused, playback starts again with the new angle.
