Along with conventional Video and CD audio discs, the DVD 37 lets you enjoy the latest high-resolution DVD-Audio discs, with HDMITM (High-Definition Multimedia InterfaceTM) output of pure, uncompressed digital audio and video as well as DivX® and VCD discs. [. . . ] Next, press the Enter Button 6 and a dropdown menu will appear that contains the available options for that setting. Press the KL Navigation Buttons 9 until the desired option is highlighted, then press the Enter Button 6 to select that option. Set Up Menu The first step in checking or changing the system defaults is to access the Setup Menu. First, make certain that the DVD is properly connected to a video display, and that power is connected. For this process, however, you do not need to load any discs into the unit. During STOP, PAUSE or PLAY mode, if you press SETUP on the remote, the Set Up Menu appears on the screen. This Main Menu and all menus in the following section may look different, listing the settings with different languages, depending on the settings made previously. With the factory default setting all languages are set to "English", that´s why with all menus the English version is shown in the manual. In the SET-UP Menu you will find submenus for making or changing all settings and adjustments for both Audio and Video handling of your DVD 37. A Main Menu Line B Submenus C Actual Settings D Instruction Line Most DVDs are created to allow setup menus to be displayed while the disc is playing, superimposed over the video playback. However, some discs are authored in a way that does not allow this. If you see the icon displayed on the screen after pressing the Setup Button 8 or the Info Button A, press the Stop Button I and then press the Setup or Info Button 8A again. 16 SYSTEM SETUP 29681_DVD37_ENG 18/08/06 12:17 Side 17 System Setup System Settings playback of the original disc at a later time from the point at which you paused. Note that even when the setting is activated, you must pause playback, rather than bring it to a full stop, and the unit must not be turned off between discs. The DVD 37 is capable of storing the information for up to five DVDs at a time. PBC Support: Activates PBC (Play Back Control) Support for VCD discs. Screen Saver: Activates a Screen Saver to prevent an image to "burn" into a video display device. If you connect the DVD 37 to a LCD or plasma screen or video projector, we recommend you activate the screen saver at all times. Show Angle Icon: Determines whether the Angle Icon will appear on the screen when there are different angles available on a DVD disc. Closed Caption: This setting enables viewing of closed caption messages, if they have been encoded in the video material. Closed captions are text displays of the program's dialogue, normally hidden from view, that are made available for the hearing-impaired or others. Select the O N setting to activate the DVD 37's closed captioning decoder so that these messages may be viewed. In that case all audio signals will be output with their original format. If your system only includes stereo and/or Dolby Pro Logic, select PCM. Then all audio signals will be output in PCM format only (DTS will output no signal). [. . . ] · Use 6-Channel Audio Outputs B or Analog Audio Outputs 9. · It is a normal artifact of DVD playback for pictures to jump or show some distortion during rapid play. · With most discs, some functions are not permitted at certain times (e. g. , Track Skip) or at all (e. g. , direct audio track selection). · Change the display language selection.
