serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the
appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the appliance.
Any mounting of the appliance should follow the manufacturer’s
instructions, and should use a mounting accessory
recommended by the manufacturer.
9. An appliance and cart
combination should be moved
with care. Quick stops,
excessive force, and uneven
surfaces may cause the
appliance and cart combination
to overturn.
10. Ventilation – Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for
ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the appliance and
to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not be
blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by
placing the appliance on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar
surface. The appliance should not be placed in a built-in
installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation
is provided. There should be free space of at least 5 cm (2 in.)
and an opening behind the appliance.
11. Power Sources – The appliance should be operated only from
the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you
are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult
your appliance dealer or local power company.
12. Grounding or Polarization – The appliance may be equipped
with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one
blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power
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

2. About This Manual
This manual explains the basic procedures for operating the
DVD Player. Some DVD-Video and DVD-Audio discs do not
support the full potential of the DVD technology. Your DVD
Player may therefore not respond to all operating commands.
Refer to instruction notes on discs.
A “ ” mark may appear on the TV screen during operation. It
means that the operation is not permitted by the DVD Player or
the disc.
3. Recording Copyright
Recording of copyrighted material for other than personal use is
illegal without permission of the copyright holder.
4. Power
WARNING
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME,
READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.
The voltage of the available power supply differs according to
country or region. Be sure that the power supply voltage of the
area where the unit will be used meets the required voltage
(e.g., AC 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz) written on the rear panel.
5. Do not touch the unit with wet hands
Do not handle the unit or power cord when your hands are wet
or damp. If water or any other liquid enters the case, take the
unit to an authorized service center for inspection.
6. Location of the unit
•Place the unit in a well-ventilated location.
Take special care to provide plenty of ventilation on all sides of
the unit especially when it is placed in an audio rack. If
ventilation is blocked, the unit may overheat and malfunction.
•Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or heating units as
the unit’s internal temperature may rise and shorten the life of
the pickup.
•Avoid damp and dusty places and places directly affected by
vibrations from the speakers. In particular, avoid placing the
unit on or above one of the speakers.
•Be sure the unit is placed in a horizontal position. Never place
it on its side or on a slanted surface as it may malfunction.
•When you place the unit near a TV, radio, or VCR, the
playback picture may become poor and the sound may be
distorted. In this case, place the unit away from the TV, radio,
or VCR.
7. Care
From time to time you should wipe the front and rear panels and
the cabinet with a soft cloth. For heavier dirt, dampen a soft cloth
in a weak solution of mild detergent and water, wring it out dry,
and wipe off the dirt. Following this, dry immediately with a clean
cloth.
Do not use rough material, thinners, alcohol or other chemical
solvents or cloths since these could damage the finish or remove
the panel lettering.
8. Notes on Handling
•When shipping the unit, use the original shipping carton and
packing materials. For maximum protection, repack the unit as
it was originally packed at the factory.
•Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near the unit.
Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the unit
for a long time. They will leave marks on the finish.
•The top and rear panels of the unit may become warm after
a long period of use. This is not a malfunction.
•When the unit is not in use, be sure to remove the disc and
turn off the power.
•If you do not use the unit for a long period, the unit may not
function properly in the future. Turn on and use the unit
occasionally.
9. To Obtain a Clear Picture
The unit is a high technology, precision device. If the optical
pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn down, the
picture quality becomes poor. To obtain a clear picture, we
recommend regular inspection and maintenance (cleaning or
parts replacement) every 1,000 hours of use depending on the
operating environment. For details, contact your nearest dealer.
10. Notes on Moisture Condensation
Moisture condensation damages the unit.
Please read the following carefully.
•What is moisture condensation?
Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you pour a
cold drink into a glass on a warm day. Drops of water form on
the outside of the glass. In the same way, moisture may
condense on the optical pick-up lens inside the unit, one of
the most crucial internal parts of the unit.
•Moisture condensation occurs in the following cases.
–When you bring the unit directly from a cold place to a
warm place.
–When you use the unit in a room where you just turned on
the heater, or a place where the cold wind from the air
conditioner directly hits the unit.
–In summer, when you use the unit in a hot and humid place
just after you move the unit from an air conditioned room.
–When you use the unit in a humid place.
•Do not use the unit when moisture condensation may
occur.
If you use the unit in such a situation, it may damage discs
and internal parts. Remove the disc, connect the power cord
of the unit to the wall outlet, turn on the unit, and leave it for
two or three hours. After a few hours, the unit will have
warmed up and evaporated any moisture. Keep the unit
connected to the wall outlet and moisture condensation will
seldom occur.

Operating Components not Reached by the Remote
Controller Signals (IR IN/OUT)
In order to use the remote controller to control the DPS-8.3 from a
remote location, you will need to prepare a multi-room kit (sold
separately such as one of those given below:
•Integra’s Multi-Room System kit (IR Remote Controller Extension
System).
•Multiroom A/V distribution and control system such as those from
Niles® and Xantech®.
If the DPS-8.3 is located inside a cabinet or other enclosure
where the infrared rays from the remote controller cannot
enter, then operation with the remote controller will not be
possible. In such a case, it will be necessary to install a
remote sensor at a location outside of the cabinet for the
infrared rays from the controller to reach.
In this situation, you will need to use a commercially-available
IR emitter. Connect the mini plug of the IR emitter to the IR
OUT terminal on the DPS-8.3. Then place the IR emitter on
the remote sensor of the component or facing it. When the IR
emitter is connected, only the signal input to the IR IN
terminal is output to the IR OUT terminal. The signal input
from the remote sensor on the front of the
DPS-8.3 will not be output to the IR OUT terminal.

■Setting the TV System (Australian model
only)
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. The table
below shows what kinds of disc are compatible with each setting
(AUTO, PAL and NTSC).
1 Switch the player into standby.
2 Hold down ¢then press Standby/On until the display
indicates the new setting to switch the TV system.
The TV system changes as follows:
AUTO =NTSC
NTSC =PAL
PAL =AUTO
Note that you have to switch the player into standby before each
change.
About MOD. (Modulation) PAL
•SHRINK
Most models of the newly developed countdown PAL TV system
detect 50 Hz (PAL)/60 Hz (NTSC) and automatically switch
vertical amplitude, resulting in a display without vertical
shrinkage.
•If your PAL TV does not have a V-Hold control, you may not be
able to view NTSC disc because the picture may roll. If the TV
has a V-Hold control, adjust it until the picture stops rolling. On
some TVs, the picture may shrink vertically, leaving black bands
at the top and bottom of the screen. This is not a malfunction; it is
caused by the NTSC = PAL conversion.

Setting Up the Player
The Setup Navigator has been designed to simplify the
process of getting the DVD player ready to perform.
Designed as a series of on-screen multiple-choice
questions, the Setup Navigator automatically sets the
audio, video, and language settings according to how
the questions are answered. Once this procedure is
complete, it will be possible to begin using the DVD
player to enjoy DVDs.
The procedure on this page describes the operations
necessary to function within the Setup Navigator
screens. A detailed description of the contents of each
question that appears on the screen can be found on
the following pages.
Press On (Standby/On on the front
panel).
If there’s already a disc loaded and it starts
to play, press 7 to stop it.
Press SETUP.
When Setup is pressed for the first time,
the following screen appears. Though the
Setup Navigator may be used more than
once, this screen only appears the first
time Setup is pressed.
Use the cursor buttons (5/∞) to
make a selection.
•If you are going to use the Setup
Navigator, it is not necessary to change
the setting on the first screen. Please
proceed to the next step.
•If you do not want to set up the player
using the [Setup Navigator], use the
cursor button (∞) to select [Auto Start
Off] at this time.
The Setup Navigator function may still
be used at a later time in manual Setup
screen menu operation (page 46).
Press ENTER.
The selection is entered and the next
Setup Navigator screen appears.
Use steps 3 and 4 as a basis for entering
selections on the all of the Setup Navigator
screens described on the following pages.
■When setting up for the first time
Some DVDs start playing automatically when loaded in the
player. Because the Setup Navigator cannot be used if a disc
is playing, it is recommended to set up the player using the
Setup Navigator before loading a DVD for the first time. If a
DVD has been loaded, be sure to press 7 before proceeding.
■To change the answer to a prior question
Use the cursor button (2) to return to previous screens.
Please note, however, that you cannot go forward using the
cursor button (3), so it will be necessary to answer all the
questions that occur after the screen that was returned to.
■To exit the Setup Navigator
Press Setup while on any of the screens to exit the Setup
Navigator. Please note that if the Setup Navigator is exited
before all the questions are answered, no settings are
changed.
Note
On-screen information (
i
) appears to clarify the functions and
explain the options available.

Getting Started Using Your DVD Player
When a Menu Screen is Displayed
Menu screens are displayed for DVDs that have menu
screens or Video CDs that include Playback Control (PBC).
DVDs often contain extra information that can be accessed in
the DVD menu and sometimes makes navigating DVD menu
screens as enjoyable as watching the feature presentation.

“UNPLAYABLE MP3 FORMAT” will be displayed.
•Not compatible with variable bit-rate (VBR) files.
•This system only plays tracks that are named with the file
extension “.mp3” or “.MP3”.
•This system is not compatible with multi-session discs. If
you try to play a multi-session disc, only the first session will
be played.
•Use CD-R or CD-RW media for recording your MP3 files.
The disc must be finalized in order to play.
•Audio encoded at 128Kbps should sound close to regular
audio CD quality. Although this system will play lower bit-
rate MP3 tracks, the sound quality becomes noticeably
worse at lower bit-rates.
•Only the first 8 characters of folder and track names
(excluding the “.mp3” extension) are displayed.
•This system can recognize a maximum of 250 folders and
250 tracks. Discs containing more than 250 folders or tracks

Note
If you have made digital audio connections to component(s) not
equipped to decode the DTS digital bitstream, be sure to select [DTS
3 PCM]. DTS signals are converted to Linear PCM signals then
output. If a DTS signal is output without decoding, the output is
digital noise that could potentially cause damage to your speakers.
Settings: Down Sample On (Factory setting)
Down Sample Off
Notes
•On DVDs that contain copy protection, the 96 kHz signal may
only be output from the analog audio jacks.
•Even when set to [Down Sample Off], some discs will be down
mixed to 48 kHz/44.1 kHz and not output digitally.
•High sampling rate DVD audio discs (192 kHz or 176.4 kHz)
always output audio down sampled to 96 kHz or 88.2 kHz through
digital outputs.
Settings: MPEG
MPEG 3 PCM (Factory setting)
■Linear PCM Out
If your AV amplifier (or other connected component) is
compatible with high sampling rates (96 kHz), set this to
[Down Sample Off], otherwise set it to [Down Sample On]
(96 kHz audio is converted to a more compatible 48 kHz/
44.1kHz). Check the manual that came with the other
component if you’re unsure whether it is 96 kHz compatible.
■Digital Out
Expert
Depending on your preferences and the type of connections
made, you may opt not to have the digital audio signal output
at all. When this setting is set to [Off] there is no signal output
from the digital audio output jacks.
Make changes to the [Digital Out] setting in the Setup screen
Audio menu in the [Expert] menu mode (page 47).
Note
•DVD audio does not allow for downmixing. In this case, digital
audio will not be output.

■Audio Out
If you connected this player to your amplifier using the 5.1
channel analog outputs (front, surround, center and subwoofer
outs), set this to [5.1 Channel]; if you connected only the
stereo outs, set to [2 Channel].
■Speaker Setting
You only need to make this setting if you connected this player
to your amplifier using the 5.1 channel analog outputs.
Follow the on-screen displays to describe which speakers are
in your system and their sizes and positions.
Set the size of your speakers in the Size screen. The front left/
right (L/R) speakers have a fixed setting of [Large]. The center
(C), left surround (LS) and right surround (RS) speakers can
each be set to [Large], [Small] or [Off]. Set a speaker to
[Large] if the main speaker cone is 12 cm or more; set to
[Small] if the it’s less than 12 cm. Note that the LS and RS
speakers cannot be set independently.
The subwoofer (SW) can only be set to [On] or [Off].
The graphic on the right of the screen represents your speaker
setup, with the currently selected speaker’s name highlighted
in blue, and the speakers set to [On] highlighted in yellow.
Set the distance from your main listening position to each
speaker in the [Distance] screen. The distance setting for any
speaker that was set to [Off] in the [Size] screen will be grayed
out. For the other speakers, enter the distance to the nearest
0.1m (10cm). You can set the distance for the L/R speakers
between 0.3m and 9m. Note that you must set the C and SW
speakers within 2m of the L/R setting. The LS and RS
speakers must be set within –6m and +2m of the L/R setting.
The graphic on the right of the screen represents your speaker
setup, with the currently selected speaker’s name highlighted
in blue, and the speakers set to [On] highlighted in yellow.
Settings: 2 Channel (Factory setting)
5.1 Channel
Notes
• Even if you set [Audio Out] to [5.1 Channel], you’ll only get sound
from all speakers when playing a multi-channel DVD-Audio disc,
SACD or Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG encoded DVD disc.
• If you set to 2 Channel, Dolby Digital, DTS and MPEG audio is
mixed down to two channels so you still hear all the audio
recorded on the disc.
• Some DVD-Audio discs don’t allow down-mixing of audio. These
discs always output multi-channel audio regardless of the setting
made here.

Expert
You may want to make this setting if you connected this player
to your amplifier using the 5.1 channel analog outputs.
Under the default setting, all channels are output at the
relative volumes they were recorded at. Change the setting to
[Variable] if you want to adjust the relative volume levels of
any of the speakers. Adjustment is in the range of –6dB to
+6dB, in steps of 0.5dB.
When set to [Variable], the overall output level may sound
quieter than when set to [Fix]. This is not a malfunction.

Adjust the relative volume levels of [C (center)], [LS (left
surround)], [RS (right surround)], and [SW (subwoofer)] in the
range of –6.0dB to +6.0dB from the value. The maximum output
level (+6.0dB) which is set to [Variable] is same as the output
level when set to [Fix].
Therefore, when set to [Variable], the output level sounds quieter
than the output level when set to [Fix], in almost all cases.
When Variable is selected, the following screen appears:

material has a frame rate of 30 frames/sec. (NTSC),
compared with 24 frames/sec. for film. This player converts

This remote controller features a learning function that allows you to program the remote codes of other remote control
units for more singular control of your home entertainment system. A number of commands can be programmed for
operation for when the remote controller is in DVD mode and when it is in Receiver mode. Please follow the procedure in
this section to program your remote controller to your preferences.
Programming the Commands
of Other Remote Control Units into the Remote Controller
12
3
Place the remote controller and the
other remote control unit of the
other component facing each other
at a distance of 5 to 15 cm apart.
While pressing and holding down
the desired Mode button (VCR or
TV) on the remote controller, press
Search and then release both
buttons.
When you press and hold down the
desired Mode button, the Send/Learn
indicator lights up. When you press
Search, the indicator turns off. When you
release both buttons, the indicator lights
up again.
Press and release the button on the
remote controller to which you want
to transfer the new command.
The buttons that can be selected in this
step depend on the mode (other than
Mode (DVD, RCVR, TV, VCR)).
If you press the wrong button by mistake,
press the same button again. The Send/
Learn indicator flashes three times and the
remote controller exits the programming
mode. When this is the case, start again at
step 1.

Programming procedure
The first step in the procedure is to determine whether the new command is to be learned in the DVD
mode or in the Receiver mode. Generally speaking, this should be decided by the command being
learned. After deciding which mode is to be used, you will then transfer the individual commands from the
other remote control unit to the RC-499DV remote controller one at a time. Each command is then
programmed to one of the available buttons on the RC-499DV remote controller.
Even after the commands have been programmed, keep the other remote control unit in a safe place in the
case that the programmed commands should be lost (e.g., when the batteries run down). If the commands
are lost, it will then be necessary to program them again.

Programming procedure
4
5
Press and hold down the button on
the other remote control unit that
corresponds to the command you
want to program until the Send/
Learn indicator flashes twice to
indicate that the command has
been successfully programmed.
After flashing twice, the Send/Learn
indicator lights up again.
Repeat steps 3 and 4 to program
other commands within the same
mode. Repeat step 2 to 4 to
program commands to the other
mode.
Press the Mode button (VCR or TV)
that you pressed in step 2 to
complete the programming.
Use the remote controller to
perform the newly learned
command to confirm that it was
learned correctly.
Notes
•Some buttons have already been programmed to control
functions of an Integra/Onkyo receiver. Therefore, it is
recommended to program additional functions of the receiver that
are not already programmed in the remote controller.
•If no buttons are pressed for more than 30 seconds during the
programming, or if you perform an invalid operation, the
Send/Learn indicator flashes three times quickly and the remote
controller exits the programming mode. Resume programming
from step 2.
•If you perform an invalid operation during programming, the
Send/Learn indicator flashes three times quickly and the remote
controller exits the programming mode. Resume from Step 2.
•When you want to program a command to a button to which you
have already programmed a command, simply follow the same
procedure and programming for that button will be overwritten.
•The remote controller uses infrared rays to send its commands,
as do most other remote control units. Though most remote
control units can be memorized by the remote controller, be
aware that some remote control units use a system that is quite
different from the remote controller and therefore may not be able
to be programmed.
•Some remote control units have a single button that performs
multiple functions (for example, the function may change each
time the button is pressed). If this is the case, each function must
be programmed to a separate button on the remote controller.
•Once you have programmed the commands from the other
remote control unit, refer to the instructions supplied with the
other component to operate.
•Make sure that both the remote controller and the other remote
control unit have new batteries. If either of them has batteries
that are low, you may not be able to program the commands of
the other remote control unit properly into the remote controller.
•Removing the batteries from the remote controller for at least 10
minutes erases all of the commands that have been programmed
in the remote controller.
Programming the Commands of Other Remote
Control Units into the Remote Controller
67
Erasing the programmed command
from one button
You can only erase memorized commands and not
preset ones.
Press and hold down the desired
Mode button for the command,
press the Search button, and then
release both buttons.
When you release the buttons, the
Send/Learn indicator lights.
Press and release the button for the
command you wish to erase.
When you press the button, the Send/
Learn indicator turns off. When you
release the button, the lamp lights again.
Press and release the same button
again.
The Send/Learn indicator flashes twice.
The memorized command is erased.
Note
If no button is pressed for more than 30 seconds during the
programming, the Send/Learn indicator flashes three times quickly,
and the remote controller exits the programming mode. Resume
from Step 1.
1

3
Erasing all the commands
programmed under a Mode button
Press and hold down the desired
Mode button, press the Search
button twice, and then release both
buttons.
When you release the buttons, the
Send/Learn indicator flashes twice slowly
and then lights again.
Press and release the same Mode
button again.
When you release the button, the Send/
Learn indicator flashes twice slowly. This
erases all the commands memorized to
the Mode button.
Notes
•If no button is pressed for more than 30 seconds, the Send/Learn
indicator flashes three times quickly and the remote controller
exits the programming mode. Resume Step 1.
•If you perform an invalid operation during programming, the
Send/Learn indicator flashes three times quickly and the remote
controller exits the programming mode. Resume from Step 1.
•If many commands have been programmed to the Mode button,
then the Send/Learn indicator may remain lit for some time
during Step 2. This is not a malfunction.

Troubleshooting
Frame search doesn't find
the frame number input, or
some frames are skipped
when using frame
advance.
SACD audio cannot be
output digitally.
No surround sound is
output.
The surround sound level
is low.
Cannot output 192kHz or
176.4 kHz digital audio.
Cannot output 96kHz or
88.2 kHz digital audio.
No DTS audio output.
Noticeable difference in
DVD, SACD and CD
volume.
Picture disturbance during
playback or dark.
No sound is reproduced.
The screen is stretched or
aspect does not change.
•You may experience this with discs
recorded in 24 frames/second
progressive scan format. With these
discs, the player 'misses' one frame every
six frames. For this reason, the frame
numbers do not appear continuous when
using frame advance, and it may not be
possible to display the exact frame you
searched for.
