Do not connect this player to your TV via a VCR using audio/video or S-video cables, as the picture from this player will not appear properly on your TV. (This player may also not be compatible with some combination TV/VCRs for the same reason; refer to the manufacturer for more information.) 8 En 01_DVD-S559_En.book Page 9 Friday, November 18, 2005 4:32 PM 02 Connecting up 1 Connect the VIDEO OUT and AUDIO OUT L/R jacks to a set of A/V inputs on your TV. Use the supplied audio/video cable, connecting the red and white plugs to the audio outputs and the yellow plug to the video output. Make sure you match up the left and right audio outputs with their corresponding inputs for correct stereo sound. See below if you want to use a component or S-video cable for the video connection. Connecting using a SCART AV cable A SCART-type AV connector is provided for connection to a TV or AV receiver. The video output is switchable between ordinary composite and RGB. See AV Connector Out on page 31 for how to set it. The SCART AV connector also outputs analog audio, so there is no need to also connect the AUDIO OUT L/R jacks. 2 Connect the supplied AC power cable to the AC IN inlet, then plug into a power outlet. SCART Note TV • Before unplugging the player from the power outlet, make sure you first switch it into standby using either the front panel STANDBY/ON button, or the remote control, and wait of the -OFF- message to disappear from the player’s display. • For the above reasons, do not plug this player into a switched power supply found on some amplifiers and AV receivers. VIDEO L R UT Y COMPONENT AV AUDIO OUT 1 Use a SCART cable (not supplied) to connect the AV CONNECTOR (RGB) output to a SCART AV input on your TV (or AV receiver). Connecting using the S-video output If your TV (or other equipment) has an S-video (S1) input, you can use the S-video output on this player instead of the standard (composite) output for a better quality picture. • Use an S-video cable (not supplied) to connect the S-VIDEO OUT to an S-video input on your TV (or monitor or AV receiver). Line up the small triangle above the jack with the same mark on the plug before plugging in. 9 En 01_DVD-S559_En.book Page 10 Friday, November 18, 2005 4:32 PM Connecting up 02 Watching progressive scan video from the component video outputs TV VIDEO PB/CB L PCM/q DIGITAL /DTS/MPEG COAXIAL DIGITAL OUT To set up the player for use with a progressive scan TV, see Video Output settings on page 31.

R S VIDEO PR/CR VIDEO OUT Y COMPONENT AUDIO OUT Connecting using the component video output You can use the component video output instead of the standard video out jack to connect this player to your TV (or other equipment). This should give you the best quality picture from the three types of video output available. • Use a component video cable (not supplied) to connect the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks to a component video input on your TV, monitor or AV receiver. COMPONENT VIDEO IN TV This player can output progressive scan video from the component video output. Compared to interlace video, progressive scan video effectively doubles the scanning rate of the picture, resulting in a very stable, flicker-free image. English S-VIDEO IN Important • If you connect a TV that is not compatible with a progressive scan signal and switch the player to progressive, you will not be able to see any picture at all. In this case, switch everything off and reconnect using the supplied video cable (see Easy connections on page 8), then switch back to Interlace (see below). Switching the video output to interlace using the front panel controls Switch the player to standby then, using the front panel controls, press STANDBY/ON while pressing  to switch the player back to Interlace.

This player is fully compatible with the complete line of YAMAHA products, including the projectors DPX-1200, LPX-510 and the plasma monitor PDM-4220. Connecting to an AV receiver To enjoy multichannel surround sound you need to connect this player to an AV receiver using the digital audio output. In addition to a digital connection, we recommend also connecting using the stereo analog connection. You’ll probably also want to connect a video output to your AV receiver.

Most likely, the disc is the wrong region for your player. The region number should be printed on the disc; check it against the region number of the player (which you can find on the rear panel). See also DVD-Video regions on page 37. If the region number is OK, it may be that the disc is damaged or dirty. Clean the disc and look for signs of damage. See also Taking care of your player and discs on page 35. • Why won’t the disc I loaded play? First check that you loaded the disc the right way up (label side up), and that it’s clean and undamaged. See Taking care of your player and discs on page 35 for information on cleaning discs. If a disc loaded correctly won’t play, it’s probably an incompatible format or disc type, such as DVD-Audio or DVD-ROM. See Disc/content format playback compatibility on page 5 for more on disc compatibility. • I have a widescreen TV so why are there black bars at the top and bottom of the screen when I play some discs? Some movie formats are such that even when played on a widescreen TV, black bars are necessary at the top and bottom of the screen. This is not a malfunction. • I have a standard (4:3) TV and set the player to show widescreen DVDs in pan & scan format, so why do I still get black bars top and bottom with some discs? Some discs override the display preferences of the player, so even if you have 4:3 (Pan & Scan) selected, those discs will still be shown in letter box format. This is not a malfunction. 19 En 01_DVD-S559_En.book Page 20 Friday, November 18, 2005 4:32 PM Playing discs 05 Chapter 5 Note • Many of the functions covered in this chapter apply to DVD discs, Video CDs/ Super VCDs, CDs, DivX video and WMA/ MP3 JPEG discs, although the exact operation of some varies slightly with the kind of disc loaded.

Clean using a soft, dry cloth, wiping the disc lightly from the center to the outside edge as shown below. Hold discs by the edge or by the center hole and edge. When you're not using a disc, return it to its case and store upright. Avoid leaving discs in excessively cold, humid, or hot environments (including under direct sunlight). Don't glue paper or put stickers on to discs. Do not use a pencil, ball-point pen or other sharptipped writing instrument to write on the disc. Don’t use self-adhesive disc labels on discs as these can cause the disc to warp slightly during playback causing distortion in the picture and/or sound. Damaged and shaped discs Do not use cracked, chipped, warped, or otherwise damaged discs as they may damage the player. If necessary, use a cloth soaked in alcohol, or a commercially available CD/DVD cleaning kit to clean a disc more thoroughly. Never use benzine, thinner or other cleaning agents, including products designed for cleaning vinyl records. Cleaning the unit’s exterior Unplug the unit before cleaning. Use a dry cloth to wipe off dust and dirt. If the surfaces are very dirty, wipe with a soft cloth dipped in some neutral cleanser diluted five or six times with water and wrung out well, then wipe again with a dry cloth. Do not use furniture wax or cleaners. Never use thinners, benzine or insecticide sprays or other chemicals on or near this unit. If you use a chemical-impregnated cleaning cloth, read the instructions carefully before use. These cloths may leave smear marks on half-mirror finish surfaces; if this happens, finish with a dry cloth. This player is designed to be used only with conventional, fully circular discs. Do not use shaped discs. YAMAHA disclaims all liability arising in connection with the use of shaped discs. 35 En 01_DVD-S559_En.book Page 36 Friday, November 18, 2005 4:32 PM Additional information Cleaning the pickup lens Condensation Condensation may form inside the player if it is brought into a warm room from outside, or if the temperature of the room rises quickly. Although the condensation won’t damage the player, it may temporarily impair its performance. Leave it to adjust to the warmer temperature for about an hour before switching on. Please note that some movie aspect ratios are wider than 16:9, so even though you have a widescreen TV, these discs will still play in a ‘letter box’ style with black bars at the top and bottom of the screen. Standard TV users English The DVD player’s lens should not become dirty in normal use, but if for some reason it should malfunction due to dust or dirt, consult your nearest YAMAHA authorized service center. We do not recommend using commercially available lens cleaners for CD players. 08 If you have a standard TV, the TV Screen setting (page 31) of this player should be set to 4:3 (Letter Box) or 4:3 (Pan&Scan), depending on which you prefer. Set to 4:3 (Letter Box), widescreen discs are shown with black bars top and bottom. Moving the player If you need to move the player, first press STANDBY/ON on the front panel to turn the player off. Wait for -OFF- to disappear from the display, then unplug the power cable. Never lift or move the unit during playback—discs rotate at a high speed and may be damaged. Set to 4:3 (Pan&Scan), widescreen discs are shown with the left and right sides cropped. Although the picture looks larger, you don’t actually see the whole picture. Screen sizes and disc formats DVD-Video discs come in several different screen aspect ratios, ranging from TV programs, which are generally 4:3, to CinemaScope widescreen movies, with an aspect ratio of up to about 7:3. Televisions, too, come in different aspect ratios; ‘standard’ 4:3 and widescreen 16:9. Please note that many widescreen discs override the player’s settings so that the disc is shown in letter box format regardless of the setting. Note Widescreen TV users If you have a widescreen TV, the TV Screen setting (page 31) of this player should be set to 16:9 (Wide). • Using the 16:9 (Wide) setting with a standard 4:3 TV, or either of the 4:3 settings with a widescreen TV, will result in a distorted picture. When you watch discs recorded in 4:3 format, you can use the TV controls to select how the picture is presented. Your TV may offer various zoom and stretch options; see the instructions that came with your TV for details. 36 En 01_DVD-S559_En.book Page 37 Friday, November 18, 2005 4:32 PM 08 Additional information Setting the TV system The default setting of this player is AUTO, and unless you notice that the picture is distorted when playing some discs, you should leave it set to AUTO. If you experience picture distortion with some discs, set the TV system to match your country or region’s system. Doing this, however, may restrict the kinds of disc you can watch.
