Menus

Disc options

From the Setup menu, this menu offers you 2 functions to maximise the discs you want to play.

Autoplay

•

Select Autoplay On, if you want the disc to be played automatically once the DVD
recorder tray is closed.

Screen Format - (DVD / VCD)

Depending on the format of the DVD disc being played, select the image format that corresponds
best to the format of your television screen - cinema screen 16 x 9, classic screen 4 x 3 (Letter
Box or Standard).

Note

:

on certain DVDs, the picture format cannot be changed.

Caution: the Automatic Format function of certain television sets
may malfunction in 16x9. Set the Auto-Format of your television
to Off in order to avoid conflicts.

•

With a letterbox format TV (16x9) select 16 x 9 widescreen. Films in 16x9 will be fully
displayed. Films in 4x3 will have vertical black bands on each side of the picture.

•

With a 4x3 television, select 4 x 3 Letterbox to take advantage of the pictures recorded in
that format or 16x9. Select 4 x 3 standard to take advantage of a 4x3 Letterbox without
distortion. For films in 16x9, the edges of the picture may extend beyond the edges of the
screen.
