NOTE

Preparations

Connections
Before using the unit, connect the unit to a TV and/or
amplifier.

If your TV has a monaural audio input instead of stereo,
you need to use an optional audio cable which converts
stereo audio output to monaural.

Before making connections

B Connecting to a TV with an S-video jack

• Do not connect the AC power cord until all other
connections have been made.
• Connect VIDEO OUT of the unit directly to the
video input of your TV. Connecting VIDEO OUT of
the unit to a TV via a VCR may cause a monitor
problem when playing back a copy-protected disc.
You may also have a monitor problem when
connecting the unit to an integrated TV/Video
system.
• When you use a commercial cable, be sure to
check the cable size, flexibility, and the size of the
plug, and use an equivalent one. When you do not
use the equivalent one, the cover may not be able
to attached.
• Before connection, install the unit and set the
DIRECTION switch on the rear of the unit according
to your installation (see page 6).

If your TV has an S-VIDEO input, you can get better
picture quality by connecting it with the S-VIDEO output
of the unit using an S-video cable instead of connecting
the video input of the TV to the VIDEO jack of the unit.

mode.

Sound recorded on DTS-encoded DVD VIDEO or DTSencoded Audio CD discs are not output from the analog
(AUDIO OUT LEFT/RIGHT) jacks of the unit.

Connecting to a digital audio device
You can enjoy sound of enhanced quality by connecting
the unit’s DIGITAL OUT (either OPTICAL or COAXIAL)
jack to a digital input of an amplifier, etc., using an optical
or coaxial digital cable. The digital audio signal on a disc
will be transferred directly from the unit. If the connected
digital audio equipment is a Dolby Digital or DTS
decoder or an amplifier with a built-in decoder, you can
enjoy high-quality surround sound.

NOTES
• Connect the unit and the digital audio device by using
either an optical digital cable or a coaxial digital cable.
• It is not recommended to use the digital jacks for
dubbing. When recording the sounds (DVD VIDEO,
SVCD, Video CD or Audio CD) played back on the unit,
record them through the analog jacks.
• Depending on the disc, no signal may be output from
the DIGITAL OUT. Make an analog connection in this
case.
• Set [DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT] in the [AUDIO]
preference display correctly according to the
connected digital audio equipment. If setting made
for [DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT] is incorrect, loud
noise may be generated causing damage to the
speakers (see page 34).

Additional information

Appendix D: Glossary

Bitstream
The digital form of multichannel audio data (e.g., 5.1channel) before it is decoded into its various channels.
Chapter/title
Chapter is the smallest division and title is the largest
division on DVD VIDEO. A chapter is a division of a title
and similar to a track for Video CD or Audio CD.
Component video
Video signals with three channels of separate
information that makes up the picture. There are some
types of component video, such as R/G/B and Y/CB(PB)/
CR(PR).
Composite video
A single video signal commonly used in most consumer
video products that contains all luminance, color, and
synchronization information.
Dolby Digital (AC3)
A six-channel system consisting of left, center, right, left
rear, right rear and LFE (Low-Frequency Effect channel,
for use with a sub-woofer) channels. All processing is
done in the digital domain. Not all Dolby Digital discs
contain six (5.1) channels of information.
Dolby Surround/Dolby Pro Logic
Dolby Surround records four channels of front and rear
audio in two channels in a way that allows a decoder to
recover the original four channels for playback. Because
the audio is recorded in two channels, it can be played
back naturally by a two-channel stereo system.
Dolby Pro Logic introduces directional circuits in
decoder-side processing (increasing the level of specific
channels and lowering the level of silent channels) for
greater spatial perspective, and adds a center speaker
used primarily for dialog. The result is enhanced
channel separation.
Down-mix
Internal stereo mix of multichannel surround audio by a
DVD player. The down-mix signals are output from
stereo output connectors.
DTS
A Digital Surround audio encoding format configured
with six (5.1) channels, similar to Dolby Digital. It
requires a decoder, either in the player or in an external
receiver. DTS stands for Digital Theater Systems.
Not all DTS discs contain six (5.1) channels of
information.

JPEG
A popular file format for still image compression and
storage.
JPEG stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group.
There are three sub-types of the JPEG format as
follows.
• baseline JPEG: used for digital cameras, the web, etc.
• progressive JPEG: used for the web
• lossless JPEG: an old type, rarely used now
Linear PCM audio
PCM stands for “pulse code modulation.” Linear PCM is
the usual method for digitally encoding audio without
compression, and is used for the audio tracks on DVD
VIDEO discs, Audio CDs, etc.
MP3
MP3 is an audio data compression format, which stands
for MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3. Using MP3, you can achieve
a data reduction of about 1:10.
MPEG
A family of Standards for compressing audio-visual
information. “MPEG” standards include MPEG-1,
MPEG-2 and MPEG-4. Video CD and MP3 are based
on MPEG-1, while DVD is based on MPEG-2. MPEG
stands for Moving Picture coding Experts Group.
MPEG Multichannel
This feature expands the 5.1 channel audio format
recorded on the disc to a 7.1 channel format. The further
expansion of the 5.1 channel audio makes it easy for
you to reproduce the movie theater experience in your
own home.
NTSC (National television system committee)
A black and white and color television system format
used in the U.S.A., Canada, Mexico and Japan.
PAL (Phase Alternation by Line)
A color television system format used extensively in
Western Europe.
PBC
PBC stands for “Playback control” and is a method of
controlling disc play for Video CDs (VCD). You are able
to interact with the disc through menus.
S-video
A video signal which improves picture quality over
standard composite connections. Used on Super VHS,
DVD, high end TV monitors, etc.
Track
The smallest division on SVCD, Video CD and Audio CD
discs.

Dynamic range
The difference between the loudest and softest sounds.

Additional
information

Aspect ratio
A ratio which defines the shape of the rectangular
picture in a TV. It is the width of the picture relative to the
height. A conventional TV picture is 4:3 in aspect ratio.
