2.1 Your portable DVD player

Your portable DVD player plays digital video discs conforming to

the universal DVD Video standard.With it, you will be able to enjoy

full-length movies with true cinema picture quality, and stereo or

multichannel sound (depending on the disc and on your playback

set-up).

The unique features of DVD-Video, such as selection of soundtrack

and subtitle languages, and of different camera angles (again depend-

ing on the disc), are all included.What’s more, parental lock lets you

decide which discs your children will be able to see.You will find

your player remarkably easy to use with the On-Screen Display and

player display in combination with the remote control.
