Clearing a Bookmark

The bookmarks are erased each time you remove a disc from the player and/or when the power is turned off.

2. Press the right arrow button to highlight the Bookmark icon, and press OK (the Bookmark Banner appears).

3. Use the arrow buttons on the remote to highlight the trashcan icon that’s next to the bookmarked scene you

want to delete, and press OK (the bookmark is cleared, and the trashcan icon changes back to an unused

Changing the Camera Angle

Some discs contain multiple angles of a particular scene or sequence. If the disc only has one angle, this feature won’t
work. Currently, very few discs have this feature.

1. While a disc is playing, press ANGLE on the remote. If the disc wasn’t created with multiple angles, (the invalid

symbol) appears. If the disc contains multiple angles, the Angle icon appears with the current angle number and the
number of angles available. For example, 1/4 indicates that Angle 1 is displayed and there are 4 different angles
available.

2. Press the ANGLE button again to go to the second camera angle. Press ANGLE again to go to the third angle, etc.

3. To resume normal playback, scroll through the camera angles until you get to Angle Off.
