Language:

X to change the audio language (for avi files with multiple audio streams)

Display:

X to cycle between 5 display modes: letterbox, pan-scan 1, pan-scan 2, pan-scan 3, fullscreen.

Letterbox display mode shows the full width of the original video with black bands at top and bottom of screen. Pan-scan zooms in on the video, using more vertical lines of the screen, showing a larger image in the centre. The downside is that the left and right edges of the picture are cropped. Higher pan-scan modes zoom in more (and crop more). Fullscreen mode stretches the image to fit the TV screen - this is useful when playing a widescreen movie file on a widescreen TV.

Auto power-off: (sleep timer)

Automatically powers off PS2 after the time specified. Time starts counting from last button press.

X to increase

O to decrease

auto = power off when movie ends.
