Initial Settings menu
The Initial Settings menu provides audio and video out-
put settings, parental lock settings, and display settings,
among others.
If an option is grayed out it means that it cannot be
changed at the current time. This is usually because a
disc is playing. Stop the disc, then change the setting.
Notes:
• In the following table, the default setting is shown in
bold: other settings are shown in italics.
• Check the operating instructions supplied with your
other equipment to see which digital audio formats it’s
compatible with.
• Some settings, such as TV Screen, Audio Language
and Subtitle Language may be overridden by the DVD
disc. Often these settings can also be made from the
DVD disc menu.
