R Using the Play, Stop or Pause function.
R Using the fast forward/rewind function
R Switching to DVD menu and and navigating
through it
R Setting language, subtitle and camera

R Calling up interactive DVD content
The following functions affect only one
screen:
R Changing Audio, Video or screen settings
R Switching between full screen and menu
system.
Switching Operating Modes
When you leave an operation mode, e.g. CD
audio, its current settings are stored. If you
call up this operation mode later, there are
two possibilities:
R The operation mode settings have been
changed on the other display screen.
R The operation mode settings have not been
changed.
In the first case the operation mode settings
will be as they are on the other display screen.
