chapters including a Browser and
the Viewer which displays chapters

Screen Section
The Keep Aspect Ratio option
will keep the original aspect ratio
of your video content and window.
The Pan&Scan feature is
available for widescreen aspect
ratio titles (optimal with 16:9 and 2:35:1) enhanced DVD titles which
enables users to view content without black bars similar to T.V. as
opposed to letterboxed screens (refer to the Screen
Configuration section or What
is Pan&Scan? for more information).
NOTE: When using Pan&Scan, it is possible to move the video
screen simply by clicking on it and holding it down. A hand icon will
appear as you drag the screen left or right. The drawback is that you
will be unable to view the entire screen area at once.
Digital Zoom
This will be the only area where you may access this state-of-the-art
robust feature that allows you to zoom in on any of your favorite DVD scenes.
The full screen mode must be employed.
Then, right click for the Express Menu and select Digital
Zoom... > 4X or 9X.
Now, simply click and drag the screen to the area where you want to
zoom in. The upper left corner of your screen will display the zoomed
in area in relation (green border) to normal screen mode (orange border).
To return to the full screen mode, return to the Express Menu
(right-click) and choose Digital
Zoom... > Off.
NOTE: Governed by various International and National trade organizations,
closed captioning usually can be decoded by a standard television set. It
contains dialog and descriptive text usually for the hearing impaired. The
PowerDVD player decodes this information and presents it on the screen.
Note that Closed Captioning is different from subtitles; subtitles originate
from the DVD data stream where as Closed Captioning is encoded in the NTSC
or PAL television signals that is part of the original content of the video.
Normal Captioning: Displayed in the bottom area of the screen.
Reverse Captioning: Displayed in the top area of the screen to enable
viewing of Subtitles Information.
If this is supported by your DVD title, the selection will be
available for selection.
