Zoom

When playing DVD discs and Video CDs, you can magnify the screen during normal playback. For DVD
discs, Zoom has 3 levels (1.5x, 2x, 4x). For video CDs, Zoom has 2 levels (1x, 2x). Zoom magnifies from the
center of the screen. Once in Zoom mode, you can pan right, left, up or down by using the arrow buttons.

Press ZOOM on the remote control to magnify. (The zoom level will be displayed in the corner of the
screen. Press CLEAR to clear the zoom Info Display from the screen.)

Press the ZOOM button again to go to the next level of magnification.

To turn Zoom off, press the ZOOM button until you cycle through all the levels and return to normal
playback.

Note: You can use the 1.5x zoom mode to alter a 16x9 letterbox movie (black bars top and bottom) to a 4x3 format.
This will eliminate the black bars at the top and bottom and allow you to use left/right arrow keys to pan and scan.

What is a Video CD?

Like DVD video discs, Video CDs contain picture and sound content. Video CDs (VCDs) are encoded in a
different format. VCDs don’t hold as much information as DVD discs and the picture quality is not as high.

Because a VCD contains less information than a DVD disc, some of the features provided by the player may
not work with some VCDs.
