NOTE: Due to the variations in how DVD discs are
authored, subtitle languages displayed by the DVD 27
may not accurately reflect the actual languages avail-

selected using the disc’s menu.
Selecting an Angle
An increasing number of DVDs contain multiple-angle
views, which allow the disc’s creators to provide differ-
ent views of the same scene, or to present additional
on-screen or interactive information. In many cases the
disc will alert you to the presence of multiple angles by
showing a camera icon or other indication, but in any
case where multiple-angle material is available, the
Angle Indicator I will light in the front-panel
Information Display @ and the Multiple Angle Icon
will appear on-screen if it has been turned on in the
System Settings menu.
When multiple angle views are available as shown by
any of the available icons or indications
,
press the
Angle Button C to change the view. An information
box will appear on your video screen to show you
which angle view is playing and how many are avail
-
able. Each press of either the
Angle Button C or
the
Enter Button I will change the current camera
angle. When your desired selection appears, press the
‹›Navigation Buttons D so that DONE is
highlighted; then press the Enter Button I to remove
the on-screen display and return to nor
mal playback.
If you press the Angle Button C during a section
where multiple view are not available, the Angle banner
will simply indicate that view 1 of 1 is being displayed.
