modes available with the current disc. Repeat may also be used with
the tracks stored on a device connected to one of the USB ports.
This button is not used to access A-B Repeat mode.

When a DVD encoded with multiple camera angles is playing

and when the Angle Icon appears to indicate that the multiple-angle
passage has been reached, press this button to cycle through the
various available angles.

This button is also used to rotate still images. Each press rotates the
image 90 degrees.

Macros:

These buttons may be programmed to execute long

command sequences with a single button press. They are useful for
programming the command to turn on or off all of your components, or
for accessing specialized functions for a different component than you
are currently operating.

Numeric Keys:

Use these buttons to enter radio station frequencies

when using the tuner, or to select station presets. When a disc is playing,
you may directly enter a track or chapter number to skip to that section
of the disc.

Clear:

Press this button to clear a radio station frequency or other

number you have started to enter. This button may also be used to clear
the on-screen displays. Press and hold this button for 5 seconds to
reset the HS 300 to its factory-default settings.

Zoom:

When viewing a DVD, VCD or JPEG still image, press this button

repeatedly to enlarge the on-screen image by 2x, 3x, 4x or 5x (2x or
3x only for VCDs) before returning to the original size. While enlarged,
use the Navigation buttons to explore the image.

A-B Repeat:

While a disc is playing, the A-B Repeat function allows

you to repeatedly play a passage, which may include several tracks or

chapters. Press the button once to select the starting point (“A”), and
a second time to select the end of the passage (“B”). Press the button
again to end repeat play.

Pre. Ch:

This button has no function with the HS 300. However, for

many televisions pressing this button returns the TV to the previous
channel.

Recall:

This button has no function with the HS 300. However, for

many televisions pressing this button displays the channel number, time
or other information.

Picture-in-Picture:

This button has no function with the HS 300.

However, for many televisions pressing this button activates the picture-
in-picture function for simultaneous viewing of two channels or inputs.

Source Video Output:

This button selects the S-video, component

video or HDMI output to be used when the internal disc player or a
device connected to one of the USB ports is the source. Since the
HS 300 cannot output S-video and component video simultaneously,
the S-video or YUV (for component video) indicator will light in the
front-panel display when that video output has been selected.

Source Video Format:

This button selects the upscaled video

output resolution (480i, 720p, 1080i) when the internal disc player or
a device connected to one of the USB ports is the source. The 720p
or 1080i indicator will light in the front-panel display to indicate the
upscaled resolution.

Aspect Ratio:

This button has no effect on the HS 300, but pressing

it adjusts the aspect ratio on some video displays.

Open/Close:

Press this button to open or close the disc drawer. If

the HS 300 is in standby mode, pressing this button will turn it on.

Learn:

The HS 300 remote is capable of “learning” individual IR

codes from the original remote that came with your TV or a device that
is connected to the Auxiliary or Digital Audio Inputs. See the Installation
section for instructions for learning remote codes. There is also a quick
reference for learning remote codes on the back of the remote.

Transport Controls:

These buttons are used to operate the

HS 300’s internal disc player. Use the controls to skip forward or
reverse by track or chapter; to fast-search forward or reverse; and
to play, pause or stop the disc. After pressing the Pause button, the
skip buttons may be used to step frame-by-frame through a video
presentation, and the fast-search buttons may be used for slow-play.

Title/Record:

When used with the internal disc player, this button

allows you to select from the titles stored on the disc, which may include
“making of” or other featurettes. If you have connected a recorder to the
HS 300, this button may be used to make recordings when it is pressed
simultaneously with the Subtitle button.

Backlight:

Press this button to turn on the backlight to make it easier

to see the buttons in a darkened room. The backlight will remain on for
a few seconds after your last button press before going out, or you may
turn off the backlight by pressing this button again.
