may not be the answer you want but....when you are watching movies with
multi-angles, turn off the OSD in the dvd players setup menu...almost every
player has this ability. I guess its interrupting your porno material eh?

That's a good idea to turn off OSD. However, on the few discs that I've seen
the angle icon come on when it should not, hitting the OSD button to remove
the OSD from the screen solves the problem.

Does anyone know why the angle icon would display on a film that does not
have any angles? It came on during the titles once. I cycled through the
angles but could not see any difference.

Sometimes, when a movie has more than one audio language, the
multi-angle feature is used to have different sets of credits, like,
the title spelled in a different language, or adding credit for the
voice talent.

Completely depends on the dvd...if you listed a few of the titles I'm sure
someone could tell you why the multi-angle feature is being used when you
dont seem to see any multi-angle content

Found out from Harman Kardon's tech support that "... the Multiple Angle
Icon will always appear when other angles are available. There is no way to
defeat this."

So... if anyone out there is looking for a good DVD player, you might want
to rethink your choice if you have decided on this model.

Two words: "Not configurable"
