Changing Styles for Title & Chapter Menus
The DVD MENU screen can be used to change the styles used for displaying title and chapter menus. One of eight different types
of style can be selected for each of the title and chapter menus.
This DVD recorder can also store a total of six different display patterns for title and chapter menus. At the time of purchase, this
DVD recorder will contain five different template files. Any of the stored display patterns can be selected to change the styles
applied to each of the title and chapter menus.
1.
Open the DVD MENU screen.
This screen allows patterns to be modified for the style indicated by the
STYLE parameter.
TITLE PATTERN
: Shows the pattern number for the current title-menu
display style as indicated by the STYLE parameter.
CHAPTER PATTERN : Shows the pattern number for the current chapter-
menu display style as indicated by the STYLE
parameter.
When the STYLE parameter’s number setting is changed, the patterns used
for title and chapter menus in the new style will be displayed by TITLE PAT-
TERN and CHAPTER PATTERN respectively.

Select TITLE PATTERN from the DVD MENU screen and press the SET
button.

The TITLE PATTERN screen will appear.

the TITLE PATTERN screen, and then press the SET button.

The title menu’s display pattern changes to No. 4, and the BACK button
becomes highlighted.

With the BACK button highlighted, press the SET button and return to
the DVD MENU screen.
If BACK is used to exit the TITLE PATTERN screen without the SET button
being pressed for the newly selected pattern, the pattern setting will not be
updated.
