You cannot use the operation or function due to one of the following reasons:
(1) Your DVD disc does not support the feature (for example, angles)
(2) You've requested a title, chapter, or scan time that is out of the correct range.
The disc does not support all the selected functions.
In this case, some settings you configure on the setting menu may not work properly.
Aspect ratio is fixed for DVD disc.
Check whether you selected correct digital output options in the Audio Output Options menu.
Did you move your DVD Recorder-VCR suddenly from a cold place to a warm place? In this
case, remove discs and wait for one to two hours with the power on, and then, insert the disc and
try to play it again. It will work properly when condensation is removed.
Angle operation is available only when the disc contains the images captured at different angles.
• Check whether there is damage or foreign materials on your disc.
• Some discs with bad manufacturing quality may not be played back.
• If the scene changes from dark to bright suddenly, the screen may jitter temporarily, but it is not
a defect.
Sound languages and subtitle languages are disc-specific.
Only the sound and subtitle languages contained on a DVD disc are available and displayed in
the disc menu.
• Check whether "480P" is displayed on front panel.
• Make sure to change the component video output using the Progressive button when the disc is
stopped.
• Point the remote control at the remote control sensor on your DVD recorder-VCR.
Operate within distance. (15ft)
Remove obstacles between the DVD Recorder-VCR and remote control.
• Check whether the batteries are dead.
• Read the table of contents and then find and read the sections describing your problem, and
follow the directions given.
• Turn the unit off and on.
• If your problem still persists, contact a nearby Hitachi service center.
