IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Safety

1. Power source—Connect the unit to a power source of the type

described in these instructions or as marked on the unit.

2. Polarization—The unit is equipped with a polarized power plug where

one blade is wider than the other. This safety feature

ensures that the plug fits into your household AC outlet only one way. If

the plug doesn’t fit one way, try reversing it. If the plug still doesn’t fit,

contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to

defeat the safety purpose of the plug.

3. Power cord protection—Route the AC power supply cord so that it

will not be walked on or pinched by items placed on or against it. Never

take hold of the plug or cord with wet hands. Always grasp the plug

body firmly when connecting and disconnecting it.

4. Overloading—When connecting the AC power supply cord, be

careful not to overload the household AC outlet, extension cord, or

outlet from any other device as this can result in fire or electric shock.

5. Nonuse periods—Turn the unit off when it is not in use. Unplug the

unit from the household AC outlet if it is not to be used for a long time.

Conserving power

This unit consumes a small amount of power, even when it is turned

off. (approx. 2.5 W)

To save power when the unit is not to be used for a long time, unplug it

from the household AC outlet.

Connect your unit directly to your television.

Do not connect the unit through your video cassette recorder when

setting up your home entertainment system, because the picture may

not be played correctly due to the copy guard.

S VIDEO OUT terminal

The S video terminal achieves a more vivid picture than

the VIDEO OUT terminal by separating the chrominance

the television.)

COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminal

These terminals can be used for either interlace or progressive output and provide

a purer picture than the S VIDEO OUT terminal. Connection using these terminals

outputs the color difference signals (PB/PR) and luminance signal (Y) separately in

order to achieve high fidelity in reproducing colors.

≥The description of the component video input terminals depends on the television

or monitor (e.g. Y/PB/PR, Y/B-Y/R-Y, Y/CB/CR).

Connect to terminals of the same color.

≥After making this connection, change the black level for a better picture.

(➡ page 21, Video—Black Level Control)

When making this connection, ensure you connect the audio cables to the corresponding audio input terminals on the television.

Connection to a television

This page explains how to connect the unit to a television and set it up so you hear the audio through the television’s speakers. To get the full benefit from

the powerful multi-channel audio found on DVDs, you should connect an amplifier and speakers (➡ page 7).

Before connection

≥Disconnect the AC power supply cord.

≥Refer to the television’s operating instructions.

To enjoy progressive video

≥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 connected to an incompatible television.)

Select how to output audio with a sampling frequency of 96 kHz or

88.2 kHz.

≥Select “Yes” if the equipment you connect cannot process signals with a

sampling frequency of 96 kHz or 88.2 kHz.

No (Factory preset): Output as 96 kHz or 88.2 kHz

Yes: Converted to 48 kHz or 44.1 kHz

[Note]

≥Make sure that “Digital Audio Output” setting (➡ page 21) is “On”.

≥Signals are converted to either 48 kHz or 44.1 kHz despite the above

settings if the signals have a sampling frequency of over 96 kHz, or the

disc has copy protection.

≥Some equipment cannot handle sampling frequencies of 88.2 kHz, even

if they can handle 96 kHz. Read your equipment’s operating instructions

for details.

Dolby Digital and DTS Digital Surround

Bitstream (Factory preset for Dolby Digital):

Select if the equipment you connected can decode the signal.

PCM (Factory preset for DTS Digital Surround):

Select if the equipment you connected cannot decode the signal.

IMPORTANT

If the equipment you connected cannot decode the signal, the

setting must be changed to PCM. If not, signals the equipment cannot

process will be output by this unit, causing high levels of noise which

can damage your hearing and the speakers.

Speaker setting

Change speaker presence and size a, delay time b, and channel balance

c to suit the speakers you have connected.

These settings are not necessary when you select “2-channel” (only two

speakers are connected).

[Note]

This feature works only for analog connection (➡ page 7).

reproduction.

If the subwoofer is set to No, the front speakers will automatically be set to

Large.

Delay time (b)

[DVD-V] (Dolby Digital and DTS, center and surround speakers only)

For optimum listening with 5.1-channel sound, all the speakers, except for

the subwoofer, should be the same distance from the seating position. If

you have to place the center or surround speakers closer to the seating

position, adjust the delay time to make up for the difference.

If distances d (from the center speaker) and f (from the surround

speakers) are the same as or greater than e (from the front speakers),

leave the delay time as “0”, the factory preset.

If either distance d or f is less than e, find the difference in the relevant

table and change to the recommended setting.

Changing the delay time

1. Press [3, 4, 2, 1] to select the delay time box and press

[ENTER].

2. Press [3, 4] to adjust the delay time and press [ENTER].

Channel balance (c)

Glossary

Bitstream

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

before it is decoded into its various channels.

Decoder

A decoder restores the coded audio 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 multi-

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

DVD-Videos are recorded using either film or video. Usually, film is

recorded at 24 frames per second, the rate movies are filmed at, while

video is recorded at 30 frames per second.

Frame still and field still

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.

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.

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 video signals output from this unit’s COMPONENT

VIDEO OUT terminals (Y, PB, PR) allow you to enjoy higher quality pictures

than if the signals were output from the VIDEO OUT terminal or

S VIDEO OUT terminal.

I/P/B

MPEG 2, the video compression standard adopted for use with DVD-

Video, codes frames using these 3 picture types.

I: Intra coded picture

This picture has the best quality and is the best to use when adjusting

the picture.

P: Predictive coded picture

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

B: Bidirectionally-predictive coded 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)

These are uncompressed digital signals, similar to those found on CDs.

Playback control (PBC)

If a Video CD has playback control, you can select scenes and information

with menus (called menu play in these instructions).

≥Turn Advanced Surround off if it causes distortion.

≥Output from this unit will be in stereo (two channels) when Advanced Surround is on. Turn

Advanced Surround off if you are using three or more speakers.

≥If you have connected this unit to an amplifier through the AUDIO OUT terminals, go to the Audio

menu in the SETUP menu, and change “Speaker setting” to suit to your speakers. Select the

large or small icon for all the speakers you have connected.

≥Due to the specifications on some types of televisions, both video and audio may be cut off when

you turn the AUDIO ONLY feature on.

≥

If the “D.MIX” indicator on the display goes out while playing a multi-channel DVD-Audio disc,

sound will only be output from speakers specified by the disc. Read the disc’s instructions for details.

≥If you have connected this unit to other equipment through the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal,

ensure you have selected the correct settings for “Dolby Digital” and “DTS Digital Surround” in the

SETUP menus’ Audio menu.

≥You inserted a disc the unit cannot play; insert one it can.

≥You inserted a blank DVD-RAM.

≥Disc is dirty: Wipe it clean.

≥Trouble may have occurred. The number following “H” depends on the status of the unit.

Reset procedure:
