Since DVD and Video CD/Super VCD have a fixed resolution, picture quality will dete- riorate, 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.

We do not recommend using DVD disc menus when the screen is zoomed as menu options will not be highlighted.

If you are displaying subtitles, these will disappear when the screen is zoomed. They will reappear when you return the screen to normal.

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 Angle Indicator on page 66).

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

Various track, chapter and title information, as well as the video transmission rate for DVD discs, can be displayed on-screen while a disc is playing.
