Some DVDs offer the facility to select different

camera angles. If this feature is available the

‘camera’ symbol lights in the display.

to cycle through the available angles.

ZOOM

Press

ZOOM

to enlarge a particular area of

the picture. Each press of the

ZOOM

button

increases the zoom, normally until a maximum

of 4x enlargement is reached (although the

amount of zoom possible varies depending on

the type of disc: in some cases no zooming is

possible). Pressing

ZOOM

when the maximum

enlargement has been reached returns the image

to normal size.

While using the zoom function, the cursor pad

can be used to move around within the image.

The zoom function can also be used when

playback is paused.

Note that a zoom level of x1.5 is particularly useful

if the output from the DVD player is in a different

screen format to your TV. A zoom of x1.5 when

a ‘widescreeen’ image is displayed on a 4:3 TV

causes the bars at the top and bottom of the

screen to disappear (although the sides of the

image are lost); a zoom of x1.5 when a 4:3 image

is displayed on a widescreen TV causes the bars

at the side of the image to disappear (although the

top and bottom of the image are lost).
