This method of navigation, option selection and adjust-
ment applies to all menus except for the Video Adjust-
ments, which use a different control method due to
the need for viewing the on-screen video or the
DVD 22’s internal test signal while the settings are
being made. See page 20 for more information on
changing the Video Adjustments.
Setup Menu
The four submenus within the SETUP menu are
where you establish the basic system settings for the
DVD 22. Most of these settings need to be adjusted
only once, and in many cases you will find that the
system defaults are the correct option for your
combination of DVD player, A/V receiver or surround
processor and video display. However, it is worth a
few minutes to briefly scan through each of the
Submenus to confirm that the settings are correct
and to familiarize yourself with the available options
so that you are aware of the flexibility of the DVD 22.
System Setup Menu
The SYSTEM SETUP submenu is where you
establish the control options for the DVD 22 that do
not relate to audio or video playback. In most cases,
the system default options are sufficient for normal
operation, but you may wish to change them to tailor
the unit’s operation to your preferences.
The following adjustments may be made on the
SYSTEM SETUP menu.
Display Language: This setting selects the language
that will be used for the DVD 22’s OSD menus and
other system messages. The default is English, but you
may also select French, Spanish, German or Italian.
Preferred Subtitle Language: This setting selects
the language used for the display of subtitles. The
default setting is OFF, which plays discs without
subtitles. To set the player so that subtitles will always
play in a specific language when they are available,
select from any of the choices shown on the
Adjustment Options Line É when adjusting this
item, as shown above. If you do not find your pre-
ferred language in the list of options, you may select
a preferred language by first pressing the
⁄¤
Navigation Buttons e during the setting adjust-
ment so that OTHER is highlighted. Press the
Enter Button z and then use the Numeric Keys
p to enter the four-digit code listed on page 30 for
the desired language. This selects a preferred subtitle
language, but it will only be available when the disc
being played contains that language. The list of subti-
tles available on any given disc is always shown on the
disc jacket, usually at the bottom of the back cover.
Note that the subtitles may also be switched on or off,
or a new language selected during playback using the
Subtitle Button R, as described on page 25.
Panel Time-Out: This settings selects the time-out
interval for the front-panel Information Display @.
The default setting is OFF, which disables this fea-
ture so that the front-panel indicators are always illumi-
nated. You may also choose five to 20 seconds as the
length of time after you press any button on the front
panel or remote for the display to go out. To view the
displays when they are off, press any button on the
remote.
Status Bar Time-Out: This setting selects the time-
out interval for the on-screen Status Bar that appears
at the top of your video screen when the Status
Button x is pressed while a disc is playing. During
DVD playback, the status bar shows the current title
and chapter, as well as the elapsed or remaining time
in the current title. You may program the status bar to
remain on-screen for either five or 20 seconds after
the Status Button x is pressed. When OFF is
selected, the time-out is disabled, and the status bar
will remain on the screen until the Status Button x
or Clear Button o is pressed.
Parental Control: This setting enables you to restrict
viewing to films or other discs encoded with parental
control information to a specific level or below, and it
also enables you to change the password that must
be entered to change the settings for this option. The
default setting allows all discs to be played, but you
may change the setting so that viewing is controlled
within the eight steps, with lower numbers being more
restrictive and high numbers allowing more material
to be viewed. The steps correspond to the standard
MPAA ratings symbols as follows. Additional informa-
tion about movie ratings is available online at
www.mpaa.org/movieratings.
• Step 1 is equivalent to a “G” rating for general audi-
ences with material appropriate for all viewers.
• Step 2 is an intermediate level between “G” and
“PG” rated material.
• Step 3 is equivalent to a “PG” rating.
• Step 4 is equivalent to a “PG-13” rating.
• Step 5 is an intermediate level between “PG-13”
and “R” rated material.
• Step 6 is equivalent to an “R” rating.
• Step 7 is equivalent to an “NC17” rating.
• Step 8 allows all discs to be played, regardless
of their content rating.
To access the Parental Control settings, press the
⁄¤ Navigation Buttons e until the current
setting on the Parental Control Settings ç line is
highlighted and press the Enter Button z. Next,
enter the default password by pressing “8888” using
the Numeric Buttons p. Finally, use the
⁄¤
Navigation Buttons e to highlight the desired
parental control level as shown on the Adjustment
Options É line as described above. You may
also change the password by highlighting NEW
PASSWORD, pressing Enter Button z and
by following the instructions that appear in the
Command Descriptions ∂ line.
PBC Support: This setting controls the activation of
PBC (Play Back Control) Support for VCD discs. If you
plan to play VCD discs, which are a CD-ROM-based
format that predates DVD, we recommend that the
setting be turned ON.
Screen Saver: This setting controls the activation of a
screen saver that prevents the image of the “splash
screen” from being “burned” into the face of your
video display when a disc is stopped for more than
five minutes. If you use the DVD 22 with a plasma dis-
play, direct-view CRT set or a CRT-based projector, we
strongly recommend that the setting be turned ON.
Show Angle Icon: This setting controls the activation
of the Angle Icon. When this setting is turned ON,
the Angle Icon, which is a small image of a movie
camera, will appear in the upper right corner of the
screen when multiple-angle material is available on the
disc being played. When the icon appears, press the
Angle Button s on the remote to switch between
the available views or program material.
Audio Setup Menu
This menu establishes the DVD’s configuration for
general audio settings, such as preferred language and
digital audio settings.
As with all setup menus, press the OSD Button `
to activate the main menu screen, and then press the
⁄¤ Navigation Buttons e so that SETUP
is highlighted. Press Enter Button z, and then use
the
⁄¤‹›Navigation Buttons e until the
AUDIO SETUP menu is highlighted within a
white outline and press the Enter Button z again.
Finally, press the
⁄¤ Navigation Buttons e
once more to move the highlight to the Control
Settings ç side of the menu screen.
