Switching subtitles
Some DVD discs have subtitles in one or more languages; the disc box will usually tell you which
subtitle languages are available. You can switch subtitle language during playback.

• Some discs only allow you to change subtitle language from the disc menu. Press TOP MENU
or MENU to access.

Switching audio language/channel
When playing a DVD disc recorded with dialog in two or more languages, you can switch audio
language during playback.
When playing a VR format DVD-RW disc recorded with dual-mono audio, you can switch between
the main, sub, and mixed channels during playback.

Zooming the screen
Using the zoom feature you can magnify a part of the screen by a factor of 2 or 4, while watching a
DVD or Video CD/Super VCD or playing a JPEG disc.
1 During playback, use the ZOOM button to select the zoom factor (Normal, 2x or 4x).
• Since DVD, Video CD/Super VCD and JPEG pictures have a fixed resolution, picture quality will
deteriorate, especially at 4x zoom. This is not a malfunction.
2Use the cursor buttons to change the zoomed area.
You can change the zoom factor and the zoomed area freely during playback.
• If the navigation square at the top of the screen disappears, press ZOOM again to display it.
Switching camera angles
Some DVD discs feature scenes shot from two or more angles—check the disc box for details.
When a multi-angle scene is playing, a icon appears on screen to let you know that other angles
are available (this can be switched off if you prefer—see Display settings on page 19).
1 During playback (or when paused), press ANGLE to switch angle.
