TV Screen Size
– If you have a widescreen TV, select
the
16:9
setting—widescreen DVD software is then
shown using the full screen area. When playing
software recorded in conventional (4:3) format, the
settings on your TV will determine how the material is
presented—see the manual that came with your TV
for details on what options are available.
If you have a conventional TV, choose either
4:3
(Letter Box)
or
4:3 (Pan & Scan)
. In Letter Box mode,
widescreen software is shown with black bars at the
top and bottom of the screen. Pan & Scan chops the
sides off widescreen material to make it fit the 4:3
screen (so even though the picture looks larger on
the screen, you’re actually seeing less of the movie).
See
Screen sizes and disc formats
on page 56 for
more information.
•
Still Picture
– The recorder uses one of two
processes when displaying a still frame from a DVD
disc. The default
Auto
setting automatically chooses
the best setting each time.
The
Frame
setting produces a sharper image, but
more prone to shake than field stills.
Action settings
Use the Action settings to specify Video CD playback and
DVD title playback behavior.
From the Action screen, use the
/
buttons to select a
setting, then use the
/
buttons to adjust it.
•
PBC Mode
– Set to
On
to have the recorder
automatically start playing Video CDs in playback
control (PBC) mode, if possible. Set to
Off

prefer to use ‘manual’ playback.
•
Title Continue
– (VR mode only) Set to
On
to have
the recorder start playing the following title
immediately after the previous one ends. When set to
Off
, when a title finishes the disc menu is displayed.
