Before using this unit please read these operating instructions carefully. Take special care to follow the warnings indicated on the unit itself as

well as the safety suggestions listed below.

Afterwards keep them handy for future reference.

Do not place the unit

on amplifiers or equip-

ment that may become

hot.

The heat can damage the unit.

PRECAUTIONS

Placement

1. Ventilation—The unit should be situated so that its location or

position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. Allow

10 cm (4q) clearance from the rear of the unit.

2. Foreign Material—Care should be taken so that objects do not

fall into and liquids are not spilled into the unit. Do not subject

this unit to excessive smoke, dust, mechanical vibration, or

shock.

3. Carts and Stands—The unit should be used

only with a cart or stand that is recommended by

the manufacturer. The unit and cart combination

should be moved with care. Quick stops, exces-

sive force, and

uneven surfaces may cause the unit and cart combination to

overturn.

4. Mounting—Any mounting of the appliance should follow the

manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a mounting acces-

sory recommended by the manufacturer.

Maintenance

Safety

1. Power Source—The unit should be connected to a power

supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or

as marked on the unit. If you are not sure of the type of power

supply to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local pow-

company.

2. Polarization—If the unit is equipped with a polarized AC power

plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other), that plug will

fit into the AC outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you

are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the

plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to

replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of

the polarized plug.

3. Power Cord Protection—AC power supply cords should be

routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by

items placed upon or against them. Never take hold of the plug

or cord if your hand is wet, and always grasp the plug body when

connecting or disconnecting it.

4. Overloading—Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords

as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

5. Nonuse Periods—When the unit is not being used, turn the

power off. When left unused for a long time, the unit should be

unplugged from the household AC outlet.

6. Attachments—Do not use attachments not recommended by

the unit manufacturer as they may cause hazards.

2. Condensation—Moisture may form on the lens in the following

conditions…

³immediately after a heater has been turned on.

³in a steamy or very humid room.

³when the unit is suddenly moved from a cold environment to a

If moisture forms inside this unit, it may not operate properly. To

correct this problem, turn on the power and wait about one hour

for the moisture to evaporate.

3. Heat—The unit should be situated away from heat sources such

as radiators and the like. It also should not be placed in tempera-

tures less than 5 oC (41 oF) or greater than 35 oC (95 oF).

Getting started

As this unit has built-in Dolby Digital and DTS decoders (➡ page 34), you can enjoy discs recorded with these systems by connecting this unit to

the 6-channel input terminals on an AV amplifier (connection [B] below). However, to enjoy the special sound effects available with AV amplifiers

that can make you feel like you were in a cinema or hall, connect this unit digitally to the AV amplifier (connection [A] below).

Use analog connection [B] to enjoy the high quality audio (sampling frequencies of 192 kHz and 96 kHz) and multi-channel audio found

on DVD-Audio. If the disc is copyright-protected, the audio can only be output through the digital output terminal if it is converted to 48

kHz.

Connections using the S video or component video terminals

Audio connections (➡ pages 9 and 10)

[A] S VIDEO OUT terminal

The S VIDEO terminal achieves a more vivid picture than the

VIDEO terminal by separating the chrominance (C) and luminance

(Y) signals. (Actual results depend on the television.)

[B] COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminal

These terminals can be used for either interlace or progressive out-

put and provide a purer picture than the S VIDEO terminal.

Connection using these terminals outputs the color difference sig-

nals (P

B/PR) and luminance signal (Y) separately in order to achieve

high fidelity in reproducing colors.

³The description of the component video input terminals depends

on the television or monitor (e.g. Y/P

B/PR, Y/B-Y/R-Y, Y/CB/CR).

Connect to terminals of the same color.

³After making this connection, change the black level for a better

picture (➡ page 29, Video—Black Level Control).

To enjoy progressive video

1. Connect to the component video (480p) input terminals on

a television compatible with this unit’s copy guard system.

Video will not be displayed correctly if you connect to a

television that is incompatible with this unit’s copy guard

system.

2. Press [PROGRESSIVE ON] on the front panel so the

indicator lights (➡ page 15).

Recording to MDs or cassette tapes

To make a digital recording

1. Connect the recording equipment with an optical or coaxial digit-

al audio cable (➡ page 9 [A]).

2. When recording DVDs, make the following settings.

VIRTUAL SURROUND (V.S.S.): OFF (➡ page 22)

Digital Audio Output: On (➡ page 29)

PCM Down Conversion: Yes (➡ page 29)

Dolby Digital and DTS Digital Surround: PCM (➡ page 29)

Note

³With CDs, wait for the total play time to appear before turning on

your recording unit’s synchro recording feature. The beginning

may be cut off if you turn it on while “READING” is displayed.

³With DVDs, recording may be interrupted when a new chapter be-

gins. Use analog recording if this persists.

These phenomena occur because DVD players must first deter-

mine the audio format and sampling frequency before switching

digital output.

º Analog recording

You can record to an MD or cassette deck. Using analog connection

means sound will be unaffected by the copy guards found on DVDs.

To make an analog recording

Connect the recording equipment with an audio cable

(➡ page 10 [D]).

º Digital recording

You can record the digital signal directly onto an MD.

The signals on DVDs will be converted to 48 kHz/16 bit linear PCM.

Ensure the following conditions are met.

³There is no copy guard recorded on the disc.

³The recording equipment can handle a sampling frequency of

48 kHz/16 bit.

When you have connected a unit with a built-in Dolby Digital decod-

er.

PCM:

When you have connected a unit that doesn’t have a built-in Dolby

Digital decoder.

DTS Digital Surround

PCM (Factory preset):

When you have connected a unit that doesn’t have a built-in DTS

decoder.

Bitstream:

When you have connected a unit with a built-in DTS decoder.

These changes to digital audio output must be made, other-

wise bitstream signals the decoder cannot handle will be out-

put. If these signals are output, “noise” will be output which

can cause harm to your ears and speakers.

Reference

I/P/B

MPEG, the video compression standard adopted for use with

DVD-Video, codes frames using these 3 picture types.

I: Intra coded picture (I-picture)

This is the standard picture and is a complete picture in itself.

This means it has the best picture quality and is the best to

use when adjusting the picture.

P: Predictive coded picture (P-picture)

This picture is calculated based on past I or P-pictures.

B: Bidirectionally-predictive coded picture (B-picture)

This picture is calculated by comparing past and future I and

P-pictures so it has the lowest volume of information.

Linear PCM (pulse code modulation)

PCM is the usual digital method used for music CDs. DVDs have a

greater volume so they use linear PCM, which has a higher sam-

pling rate. Compressed PCM signals are called packed PCM

(PPCM).

Optical digital audio cable

This cable carries optical digital signals to the amplifier to reduce

noise caused by electronic interference.

Pan&Scan/Letterbox

In general, DVD-Video are produced with the intention that they be

viewed on a widescreen television with an aspect ratio of 16:9. This

means you can view most material with the intended aspect ratio on

a widescreen television.

Material with this ratio will not fit onto a standard television with an

aspect ratio of 4:3. Two styles of picture, “Pan&Scan” and “Letter-

box”, deal with this problem.

Pan&Scan: The sides are cut off so the picture fills the screen.

Letterbox: Black bands appear at the top and bottom of the picture

so the picture itself appears in an aspect ratio of 16:9.

Playback control (PBC)

If a Video CD has “playback control” written on it or its jacket, it

means that particular scenes or information can be selected for

viewing interactively with the television using the menu screen. This

unit can play Video CDs with playback control.

Using menus to control play of a Video CD is called “menu play” in

these operating instructions.

Play list

This is a collection of scenes. It enables you to play these scenes in

succession or to select specific ones to play.

Program

This is a division on DVD-RAM.

Direct navigator

This is a list of programs you have recorded. You can select pro-

grams from the list to view. The list also shows the date and time of

recording, the channel, and the titles of titled programs. The select-

ed program is played in the background, making selection even sim-

pler.

Sampling rate

This is the number of samples of sound taken per second during

conversion to a digital signal. Sampling frequency is expressed in

kilohertz (kHz). A high sampling frequency results in a sound close

to the original when played back.

Title/Chapter

DVD-Video are divided up into large sections, titles, and smaller

sections, chapters. The numbers allocated to these sections are

called title numbers and chapter numbers.

Track

This is the smallest division on DVD-Audio, CD, and Video CD, and

usually equates to a single song.

Bitstream

This is the digital form of multiple channel audio data (e.g., 5.1 chan-

nel) before it is decoded into its various channels.

Decoder

A decoder restores the coded signals on DVDs to normal. This is

called decoding.

Dolby Digital

This is a method of coding digital signals developed by Dolby Labo-

ratories. Apart from stereo (2-channel) audio, these signals can also

be 5.1-channel audio. A large amount of audio information can be

recorded on one disc using this method.

Dolby Pro Logic

A surround system where a 4-channel audio track is recorded as

2 channels and then is restored to 4 channels for play. The surround

channel is monaural and can reproduce up to 7 kHz.

DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

This surround system is used in many movie theaters around the

world. There is good separation between the channels, so realistic

sound effects are possible.

Dynamic range

Dynamic range is the difference between the lowest level of sound

that can be heard above the noise of the equipment and the highest

level of sound before distortion occurs.

Film and video

DVDs are recorded using either film or video. Film is recorded at

24 frames per second, the rate movies are filmed at, although some

recent progressive material is recorded at 30 frames per second.

Video is recorded at 30 frames per second.

Frame still and field still

A still is shown when you pause a moving picture. A frame still is

made up of two alternating fields, so the picture may appear blurred,

but overall quality is high.

A field still is not blurred, but it has only half the information of a

frame still so picture quality is lower.

Frames are the still pictures that go together to make a moving pic-

ture. There are about 30 frames shown each second.

One frame is made up of two fields. A regular television shows these

Interlace and progressive output

NTSC, the video signal standard, has 480 interlaced (i) scan lines,

whereas progressive scanning uses twice the number of scan lines.

This is called 480p. The 480i video signals output from this unit’s

COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals (Y, P

B/CB, PR/CR) allow you to

enjoy higher quality pictures than if the signals were output from the

video output terminal or S VIDEO OUT terminal. The COMPONENT

VIDEO OUT terminals are also able to handle 480p (progressive)

video signals which are of even greater resolution.

Choose the settings to suit the equipment you have connected. Equipment Dolby Digital Bitstream (Factory preset): When you have connected a unit with a built-in Dolby Digital decoder. PCM: When you have connected a unit that doesn’t have a built-in Dolby Digital decoder.¢ DTS Digital Surround PCM (Factory preset): When you have connected a unit that doesn’t have a built-in DTS decoder.¢ Bitstream: When you have connected a unit with a built-in DTS decoder. ¢ These changes to digital audio output must be made, otherwise bitstream signals the decoder cannot handle will be output. If these signals are output, “noise” will be output which can cause harm to your ears and speakers. 33 Glossary Bitstream I/P/B This is the digital form of multiple channel audio data (e.g., 5.1 channel) before it is decoded into its various channels. MPEG, the video compression standard adopted for use with DVD-Video, codes frames using these 3 picture types. I: Intra coded picture (I-picture) This is the standard picture and is a complete picture in itself. This means it has the best picture quality and is the best to use when adjusting the picture. P: Predictive coded picture (P-picture) This picture is calculated based on past I or P-pictures. B: Bidirectionally-predictive coded picture (B-picture) This picture is calculated by comparing past and future I and P-pictures so it has the lowest volume of information. Decoder A decoder restores the coded signals on DVDs to normal. This is called decoding. Dolby Digital This is a method of coding digital signals developed by Dolby Laboratories. Apart from stereo (2-channel) audio, these signals can also be 5.1-channel audio. A large amount of audio information can be recorded on one disc using this method. Linear PCM (pulse code modulation) Dolby Pro Logic A surround system where a 4-channel audio track is recorded as 2 channels and then is restored to 4 channels for play. The surround channel is monaural and can reproduce up to 7 kHz. PCM is the usual digital method used for music CDs. DVDs have a greater volume so they use linear PCM, which has a higher sampling rate. Compressed PCM signals are called packed PCM (PPCM). DTS (Digital Theater Systems) Optical digital audio cable This surround system is used in many movie theaters around the world. There is good separation between the channels, so realistic sound effects are possible. This cable carries optical digital signals to the amplifier to reduce noise caused by electronic interference. Pan&Scan/Letterbox Dynamic range DVDs are recorded using either film or video. Film is recorded at 24 frames per second, the rate movies are filmed at, although some recent progressive material is recorded at 30 frames per second. Video is recorded at 30 frames per second. In general, DVD-Video are produced with the intention that they be viewed on a widescreen television with an aspect ratio of 16:9. This means you can view most material with the intended aspect ratio on a widescreen television. Material with this ratio will not fit onto a standard television with an aspect ratio of 4:3. Two styles of picture, “Pan&Scan” and “Letterbox”, deal with this problem. Pan&Scan: The sides are cut off so the picture fills the screen. Letterbox: Black bands appear at the top and bottom of the picture so the picture itself appears in an aspect ratio of 16:9. Frame still and field still Playback control (PBC) A still is shown when you pause a moving picture. A frame still is made up of two alternating fields, so the picture may appear blurred, but overall quality is high. A field still is not blurred, but it has only half the information of a frame still so picture quality is lower. Frames are the still pictures that go together to make a moving picture. There are about 30 frames shown each second. One frame is made up of two fields. A regular television shows these fields one after the other to create frames. If a Video CD has “playback control” written on it or its jacket, it means that particular scenes or information can be selected for viewing interactively with the television using the menu screen. This unit can play Video CDs with playback control. Using menus to control play of a Video CD is called “menu play” in these operating instructions. Dynamic range is the difference between the lowest level of sound that can be heard above the noise of the equipment and the highest level of sound before distortion occurs. Reference Film and video Play list This is a collection of scenes. It enables you to play these scenes in succession or to select specific ones to play. Interlace and progressive output NTSC, the video signal standard, has 480 interlaced (i) scan lines, whereas progressive scanning uses twice the number of scan lines. This is called 480p. The 480i video signals output from this unit’s COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals (Y, PB/CB, PR/CR) allow you to enjoy higher quality pictures than if the signals were output from the video output terminal or S VIDEO OUT terminal. The COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals are also able to handle 480p (progressive) video signals which are of even greater resolution. Program This is a division on DVD-RAM. Direct navigator This is a list of programs you have recorded. You can select programs from the list to view. The list also shows the date and time of recording, the channel, and the titles of titled programs. The selected program is played in the background, making selection even simpler. Sampling rate This is the number of samples of sound taken per second during conversion to a digital signal. Sampling frequency is expressed in kilohertz (kHz). A high sampling frequency results in a sound close to the original when played back. Title/Chapter DVD-Video are divided up into large sections, titles, and smaller sections, chapters. The numbers allocated to these sections are called title numbers and chapter numbers. Track This is the smallest division on DVD-Audio, CD, and Video CD, and usually equates to a single song. 34 Troubleshooting guide Before requesting service for this player, check the chart below for a possible cause of the problem you are experiencing. Some simple checks or a minor adjustment on your part may eliminate the problem and restore proper operation.
