Dear John Meehan, I have already answered your question on 16 September (17.19h European time). The short answer is this: http://www.consumer.philips.com/c/blu-ray-dvd/bdp9100_05/prd/gb/ " The perfect companion for the Cinema 21:9 TV. Unlike normal Blu-ray players, the BDP9100 is the only Blu-ray player allowing you to shift subtitles in the 21:9 screen aspect ratio, to retain the subtitles without the black bars.
