A-B Repeat: This feature allows you to set the beginning and end points of a section of the disc to repeat.

Resume Playback: The DVD player will memorize the location where playback is stopped so the next time you push play the disc will start up right where you left off.

Note: The stopping point is cleared when the Stop button is pressed more than once or the disc tray is opened.

T-Search: You can select a specific video segment on your disc by entering in the Title number, Chapter number, Track number and/or Time via the T-Search feature.

Night Mode: Night Mode or Dynamic Range Compress reduces the variations between loud and soft sounds in audio output so you can still hear the softer sounds and dialogue even at very low volume. Great for listening to movies late at night by yourself when everyone else has went to bed.

Parental Lock Function: You can select a parental control rating from 0-8, which is protected by a 4-digit password.

Inputs and Outputs Notes

Component Video: The SD-4000 features ColorStream Pro component video outputs which allow the video signal to be sent from the DVD player to a component video-equipped interlaced or progressive scan TV. Typical artifacts, such as video noise, dot crawl, and flicker, are virtually eliminated, resulting in a low-noise, highly detailed picture with unequaled color purity. In addition to the component video outputs, the unit also has one composite and one S-Video output.

Coaxial Digital Output: This unit features a coaxial digital output to allow you to connect the player to a receiver with a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder. There is no optical digital output on this unit. The unit also has one set of analog composite audio outputs if your application only calls for hooking the DVD audio up to your Television.
