14The Initial Setup menu

This setting is your preferred audio language for DVD discs. If the language you specify here is recorded on a disc, the recorder automatically plays the disc in that language (although this depends on the Auto Language setting—see Auto Language on page 116).

Choose Other if you want to specify a language other than those listed (see Selecting ‘Other’ languages on page 117).

Tip

You can switch between the languages recorded on a DVD disc any time during playback using the AUDIO button. (This does not affect this setting.)

This setting is your preferred subtitle language for DVD discs. If the language you specify here is recorded on a disc, the recorder automatically plays the disc with those subtitles (although this depends on the Auto Language setting—see Auto Language below).

Choose Other if you want to specify a language other than those listed (see Selecting ‘Other’ languages on page 117).

Tip

You can change or switch off the subtitles on a DVD disc any time during playback using the SUBTITLE button. (This does not affect this setting.)

When set to On, the recorder selects the default audio language on a DVD disc (French dialog for a French movie, for example), and displays subtitles in your preferred subtitle language only if that is set to

something different.1 In other words, movies in your native language won’t have any subtitles, while foreign language movies will be shown with subtitles.

Set to Off to have the recorder play discs strictly according to your Audio Language and Subtitle Language settings.

For Auto Language to work, the Audio Language and Subtitle Language settings must be the same—seeAudio Language on page 115 and Subtitle Language above.

Tip

You can still switch audio and subtitle languages on playback using the AUDIO and SUBTITLE buttons.

Some multilingual discs have disc menus in several languages. This setting specifies in which language the disc menus should appear. Leave on the default setting for menus to appear in the same language as your Subtitle Language—see Subtitle Language above.

Choose Other if you want to specify a language other than those listed (see Selecting ‘Other’ languages on page 117).
