Playing DVD Discs

Shortcut: You also can choose the audio lan-
guage/track any time by pressing AUDIO on
the remote control, regardless of whether the
Banner Display is on the screen or not.

Changing the Subtitle Language

DVD discs may contain a variety of subtitles. In
normal play, the unit will always look for the
default setting for the subtitle language, but you
may temporarily change that language at any
time using the Menu Status Bar or the SUBTITLE
button on the remote and by following these
steps:

1. While a disc is playing, press STATUS on the

remote.

2. Press the ARROW (LEFT OR RIGHT) until the

Subtitle icon (the letter ”S”) is highlighted.
Press ENTER, the Subtitle menu appears.

3. Press ENTER on the remote to change subtitle

language.

4. Each time SUBTITLE ON/OFF is pressed, the

subtitle appears (and a check mark icon to the
right of the Subtitle menu as confirmation) or
disappears on the screen.

5. To make the menu disappear from the screen,

press CLEAR or STATUS on the remote.

Notes :

If you press SUBTITLE on remote even if there
is no Banner Display on screen, subtitle menu
of current disc appears, pressing repeatedly
will change subtitle language.

The subtitle feature only works if the disc was

created with subtitles.

Changing the Camera Angle

A special feature of the DVD format is its capabil-
ity of showing more than one view, or camera
angle, of the same scene. This feature enables
you to become the director, selecting the view of
a scene that you wish. Note, however, that this
feature does not appear on many discs and,
when it does appear, it will typically be for only
certain scenes and not for the entire disc’s pro-
gram.

To see if a disc contains multiple angles, check
the disc’s cover or jacket. When a disc does con-
tain scenes with multiple angles, the producers
will usually include some sort of special on-screen
icon to alert you to the availability of different
angles of view.

When you see such an icon, the angle may be
changed by the following steps:

1. While a disc is playing, press STATUS on the

remote, the Banner Display appears.

2. Press the ARROW (LEFT OR RIGHT) until the

Camera icon is highlighted, and press ENTER,
the Angle menu appears.

3. Press ENTER or ANGLE on the remote to

change angle.

4. To make the Banner Display disappear from

the screen, press CLEAR or STATUS on the
remote.

Shortcut: The Angle menu can be called any-
time, regardless of whether Banner Display is
on or not, by pressing the ANGLE button on
the remote, pressing repeatedly will change
the angle (if disc was created with multiple
angles).

Using Bookmarks

Bookmarks are a feature of the DVD 20 that
allows you to mark up to nine different points on
a disc and to quickly return to those points later.
The Bookmarks feature works on both DVD and
CD discs.

To Enter a Bookmark, Follow These Steps:

1. While a disc is playing, press STATUS on the

remote.

2. Use the ARROW (LEFT) on the remote until the

Mark icon is highlighted and press ENTER, the
Bookmark menu appears.

3. When you reach the scene you want to mark,

press ENTER.

4. To add any mark, move the cursor with the

ARROW (DOWN) to the ”Mark” line (if not so
already), then move it to any free frame with
the ARROW (RIGHT) and press ENTER when
the scene you want to mark is reached.

5. Move the cursor to the book icon (very right)

and press ENTER to return to the Banner
Display or press CLEAR or STATUS on the
remote to make the Banner Display disappear
from the screen.

Recalling a Bookmarked Scene:

1. While playing a disc, press STATUS on the

remote, the Banner Display appears.

2. Press the ARROW (LEFT) on the remote, the

Mark icon is highlighted.

3. Press ENTER.

4. Press the ARROW (UP) on the remote to move

to the ”Go To” line of the Bookmark menu.

5. Use the ARROW (LEFT OR RIGHT) on the

remote to select the bookmarked scene you
want to activate.

6. Press ENTER to go to the bookmark.

7. Move the cursor to the book icon (very right)

and press ENTER to return to the Banner
Display. To make the Banner Display disappear
from the screen, press CLEAR or STATUS on
the remote.

Note:

If all 9 bookmarks are in use, you can still

mark new scenes, but the previous bookmarks
will be erased.

Clearing a Bookmark

The bookmarks are cleared each time a disc is
removed from the player or when the power is
turned off (completely or to Standby).
