1. Changing the Surround Audio Mode. If the DVD has a 5.1 surround
track but the DS preamp/processor does not indicate “3/2.1” in the
display, use the AUDIO button to toggle through the available audio
tracks on the DVD. Soundtracks on menus and extras are usually not
5.1, so wait until the movie is playing before changing audio tracks.
The AUDIO button may not change the audio track on some DVDs.
The alternate way of changing the audio track is to go to the DVD’s
title menu and select the Audio Setup function of the disc.
2. Changing Subtitles. If you want to change anything about the
subtitles (turn them on or off or change language) press the SUB TTL
button to toggle through the available choices. This button may
not work on some DVDs. The alternate way of changing the subtitle
operation is to go to the DVD’s title menu and select the Subtitles
function.
3. Selecting Chapters. If you want to skip to a different chapter on
a DVD, press the button to move forward, or to move back
track by track in the disc. You may also use the numeric keys to go
directly to a Chapter or Track. To get to tracks higher than 9, use a
two-key button combination. For example, if you want to listen to
track 10, press 1 followed by the 0. To hear track (or chapter) 12,
press 1 followed by the 2. You have about two seconds between key
presses before the DR-3 accepts the digit. Press two-key combos in quick
succession, or the DR-3 will only recognize the first number keyed. You
may also use the DVD’s title menu
to select a specific chapter.

Press the PLAY/ENTER button to return to normal playing speed and
direction. This function does not work with CD playback, only DVD.
The sound is muted during slow play operation.
6. Frame by Frame Play. To watch a scene frame by frame, press the
PAUSE button. Every time you push it, the picture will advance by
one frame; a great feature for film students looking for edits and
mistakes. To return to normal play press the ENTER/PLAY button.
7. Changing Angles. Some DVDs offer multiple camera angles.
With such a disc, pressing the ANGLE button toggles between the
available camera angle views. In most cases (particularly movies),
there is only one camera angle view on the disc and all that happens
when you press this button is the “ ” symbol will appear on your
TV screen.
8. Zoom. Hey, this is a cool feature: Do you ever wish you could get
a closer look at some small detail in a movie, or fill the screen with
your favorite actor’s face? Push the ZOOM button and the picture
will be magnified. Every time you push the button the magnification
increases. On the seventh button push or when you or press the

menu screens.
