Philips DVDQ50AT99 - Manual (Page 6)

6 Introduction
Welcome!
This Digital Video Disc Player will allow you to enjoy better picture quality, clearer
sound, and endless playback features on Digital Video Discs (DVDs). Expanding tech-
nology allows you to add options to your viewing - watch a director’s cut of a movie,
hear a movie in different languages, or play your favorite scene repeatedly. The possi-
bilities are limited only by your choices and the materials available on the DVD.
Of course, you can listen to your favorite Audio Compact Discs on this DVD Player,
too. Determine the order in which you want to hear the songs, or play the Disc
repeatedly - all while seeing the status of the CD on your television.
We hope you enjoy this DVD Player and learn to use its features. To get the most
from the Player, read this manual carefully. It describes how you can use the features.

Player’s menu, it will not be available if the current Disc does not include that feature.

not available, you cannot use the DVD Player to make the feature available.
