Subtitle Language
• Default setting:
English
This setting is your preferred subtitle
language for DVD discs. If the language you
specify here is recorded on a disc, the player
automatically plays the disc with those subti-
tles.
The DVD format recognizes 136 different
languages. Select
Other Language
if you
want to specify a language other than those
listed. See also
Selecting languages using the
language code list
on page 87.
• You can change or switch off the subtitles
on a DVD disc during playback using the
SUBTITLE
button. (This does not affect
this setting.) See
Switching subtitles
on
page 51.
• Some DVD discs set the subtitle language
automatically when loaded, overriding the

subtitle language from the disc menu.
Press

Auto Language
• Default setting:
On
When set to On, the player always selects the
default audio language on a DVD-Video 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. In other words, movies
in your native language won’t have any subti-
tles, while foreign language movies will be
shown with subtitles.
Set to
Off
to have the player 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 (see
Audio Language
on
page 64 and
Subtitle Language
on page 65).
• You can still switch audio and subtitle
language on playback using the
AUDIO
and
SUBTITLE
buttons.
