Changing Languages (Audio)

DVD discs may contain a variety of audio tracks,
including foreign languages, special commen-
taries, descriptive video for the sight-impaired,
and various digital formats. Some DVD-Audio
discs that contain linear PCM or Dolby Digital
5.1 audio tracks may allow you to access these
tracks using the Audio feature described in this
section. In normal play, the unit will always look
for the default setting for the audio track, but
you may change the audio track at any time
using the Menu Status Bar and following these
steps:

During disc playback, press the

Status

Button

Press the

‹

›

Buttons

until the

speaker icon (third from the left) is highlighted
in white between yellow brackets.

Press the

Enter Button

Note that the main Menu Bar will be replaced

with a single display of the current language
type (Figure 19).

Press the

Enter Button

until the desired

audio track is displayed. Note that the audio
tracks available on a disc will vary and that they
are always listed on the disc’s jacket or cover.

Within a few seconds, the disc will continue

play with the newly selected audio track.

Note that the audio track type selected in this
fashion is temporary and will only remain in
effect until the player is turned off. When the
unit is turned on for subsequent play, the
default audio type will always be used.

The audio track may also be selected during
the playback of a DVD by pressing the

Audio

Button

. After pressing the button, the audio

track may be changed by pressing the

Enter

Button

until the desired audio track is

shown. Note, however, that some discs do not

allow audio track change while a disc is playing.
When the

Audio Button

is pressed on this

type of disc, the player will go to the disc’s own
menu page for audio track selection. In this
case, use the

‹

›

⁄

Buttons

to make the selection from the menu

screen and then press the

Enter Button

The functionality of the

Audio Button

may

vary from disc to disc. Many discs will allow you
to change the playback language while the disc
is playing, as noted earlier. However, when the

Audio Button

is pressed with some discs,

playback will stop and you will be taken to the
disc’s own audio menu. At that menu, use the

‹

›

⁄

Buttons

to high-

light the desired playback language. Press the

Enter Button

when the choice is made

and the disc will either resume playback or
take you to the disc’s main menu. Note that
these functions are controlled by information
programmed within the disc, and are outside
of the control of the DVD600

DVD discs may contain a variety of subtitles. In
normal play, the unit will always look for the
default setting for the subtitle language, but you
may change that language at any time using the

Status

Button

Press the

‹

Buttons

until the

letter “S” icon (fourth from the left) is highlighted

with a single display of the subtitle language
(Figure 20).

Press the

until the desired

subtitle language is displayed. Note that the
subtitles available on a disc will vary, and they
are always listed on the disc’s jacket or cover.
Some discs may not offer alternative subtitles,
or any subtitles at all.

Press the

Subtitle On/Off Button

and

the

Enter Button

and within a few sec-

onds the disc will continue to play with the
newly selected subtitle language.

Note that the subtitle language selected in this
fashion is temporary, and will remain in effect

until the player is turned off. When the unit
is turned on for subsequent play, the default
subtitle language will always be used.

The subtitle language may also be selected dur-
ing the playback of a DVD by pressing the

Subtitle Button

. After pressing the but-

ton, the language may be changed by pressing
the

Enter Button

until the desired choice

is shown. Note, however, that some discs do
not allow audio track change while the disc is
playing. When the

pressed, the player will go to the disc’s own
menu page for subtitle disc selection. In this
case, use the

‹

›

⁄

Buttons

to make the selection from the menu

screen and then press the

Enter Button

IMPORTANT NOTE:

The steps indicated on

the page allow you to change the subtitle lan-
guage, but they do not determine whether the
subtitles are actually displayed on the screen.
To have the subtitles appear at any time, press
the

Subtitle On/Off Button

to toggle the

subtitles on or off with each press of the button.
When the subtitles are active, a check-mark
icon “

✔

” will appear in the box to the right of

the subtitle description as shown earlier.

Also note that some DVD discs do not contain
subtitles. When the

Subtitle On/Off Button

is pressed on a disc with no subtitles, the

Prohibit icon “

” will appear on screen.

Changing Camera Angles

A special feature of the DVD format is its capa-
bility of showing more than one view, or camera
angle, of the same scene. This feature enables
you to become the director, selecting the view
of a scene that you wish. Note, however, that
this feature does not appear on many discs and,
when it does appear, it will typically be for only
certain scenes and not for the entire disc’s pro-
gram. If you attempt to use the multiple-angle
feature on a disc that is not programmed for it,
you may see the “Prohibited Feature” icon “

”

on the screen. This is not a fault of the player; it
simply indicates that the feature is not available
on the disc being played.

To see whether a disc contains multiple angles,
check the disc’s cover or jacket. When a disc
does contain scenes with multiple angles, the pro-
ducers will usually include some sort of special
on-screen icon to alert you to the availability of
different angles of view. When you see such an
icon, the angle may be changed by the following
steps:

Press the

Status Button
