Philips DVD781CH99 - Manual (Page 5)

Introduction 5
Welcome!
This Digital Video Disc Player will allow you to enjoy better picture quality, clearer
sound, and endless playback features available on Digital Video Discs (DVDs).
Expanding technology allows you to add options to your viewing - watch a direc-
tor’s cut of a movie, listen to the producer’s comments, or play your favorite scene
over and over again. Hear a movie in different languages, or listen only to the
soundtrack. The possibilities 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 as well. 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 all of its features. To get the
most out of the DVD Player, read this owner’s manual carefully. It will describe
how you can access all the features listed below.

Some instructions explain how to use the DVD Player’s menu to set up features of
the DVD Player or the Disc. You get to the DVD Player Menu by pressing the SETUP

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