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 x1.25 is particularly
useful if the output from the DVD player is in
a screen format different from that of your TV.
A zoom of x1.25 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 x1.25
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).

Some DVDs offer the facility to select different camera angles. If
this feature is available the ‘camera’ symbol lights in the display.
Press

the cursor pad to move around the menu
and press
OK
to activate a menu ‘button’.
