09 Standard TV users If you have a standard TV, the TV Screen setting (page 41) of this player should be set to 4:3 (Letter Box) or 4:3 (Pan & Scan), depending on which you prefer. Set to 4:3 (Letter Box), widescreen discs are shown with black bars top and bottom. Set to 4:3 (Pan & Scan), widescreen discs are shown with the left and right sides cropped. Although the picture looks larger, you don't actually see the whole picture. DVD-Video regions All DVD-Video discs carry a region mark on the case somewhere that indicates which region(s) of the world the disc is compatible with. Your DVD player also has a region mark, which you can find on the rear panel. Discs from incompatible regions will not play in this player. In this case the attention sentence Incompatible disc region number Can't play disc is displayed on screen. Discs marked ALL will play in any player. The diagram below shows the various DVD regions of the world. 1 5 2 1 6 2 3 4 5 2 4 Please note that many widescreen discs override the player's settings so that the disc is shown in letter box format regardless of the setting. Note • Using the 16:9 (Wide) or 16: 9 (Compressed) setting with a standard 4:3 TV, or either of the 4:3 settings with a widescreen TV, will result in a distorted picture.
