1. Connecting MIXED AUDIO OUTs 1
Connect these jacks to the DVD (, AUX, etc.) IN jacks of your
amplifier or receiver.
Notes :
While playing back a disc containing multi-channel signal
format such as DTS, Dolby Digital and MPEG Multichannel
with this connection, the 5 discrete channels (front L, center,
front R, rear L and rear R) are mixed down to these front
and headphone channels.
If the MIXED AUDIO OUT connection is made, only two
front speakers are required.
2. Connecting VIDEO OUT’s
This DVD Player has 3 kinds of Video Outputs :
Component Video, S-Video and Composite Video.
If your receiver or amplifier has both VIDEO INPUT jacks and
VIDEO (MONITOR) OUTPUT jacks, connect these VIDEO
OUTS to the corresponding VIDEO IN jacks of your amplifier
or receiver and the receiver’ MONITOR OUTPUT jacks to the
corresponding input jacks on your TV. If your amplifier or
receiver does not have the necessary input and output jacks,
connect these jacks directly to the VIDEO IN jacks of the TV.
(Refer to “CONNECTING TO TV WITH AUDIO AND VIDEO
INPUTS” on the next page.)
When making COMPONENT VIDEO connections, connect
“Y” to “Y”, “R-Y” to “R-Y” (or “PR”), “B-Y” to “B-Y” (or “PB”)
For your reference, video picture quality is usually rated as
follows :
“COMPONENT” > “S-VIDEO” > “COMPOSITE”
NOTE : Do not connect this unit to your TV through a VCR.
The copy protection function built into DVD software may
interfere with the picture.
3. Connecting DIGITAL OUTs
If your amplifier or receiver has built-in digital decoders or if
you wish to make direct connection to an MD or CD recorder,
connect the COAXIAL and/or OPTICAL DIGITAL OUTPUTS
to the corresponding DIGITAL INPUTS of the associated
device(s).
Notes :
You must select the appropriate digital output mode on this
DVD player before trying to use it with an outboard amplifier
or receiver via the digital connections.
Otherwise, operation with the incorrect digital mode may
result in a loud noise through your speakers that could
damage the speakers and/or our hearing. (For details, refer
to “When selecting the DIGITAL OUTPUT” on page 32.)
Recordings of DVD software made via the digital connection
on an MD or CD recorder may not be made properly.
When making the COAXIAL DIGITAL connections, use 75
Ohm coaxial cable not standard audio patch cords.
Not all of the commercially available optical cables are
suitable for use with audio equipment. If you have any
questions regarding the appropriateness of any cable,
please consult your dealer or a professional service
organization.
Remove the protecive cap before making any OPTICAL
DIGITAL connections. Re-install the cap when you will not
be using the OPTICAL INS or OUTS.
4. Connecting the 6.1 CH AUDIO OUTs
This DVD player has built-in multi-channel digital decoders for
DTS, Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic, MPEG Multichannel and
Circle Surround including the 6.1 Extended Surround versions
of both DTS and Dolby Digital so you can enjoy high-quality
audio and surround sound without the need for an external
decoder.
Connect these jacks to the corresponding 6.1 (or 6) channel
inputs of your amplifier or receiver.
Notes :
If you amplifier or receiver has only 6 channel direct inputs,
do not hook up the REAR CENTER OUTPUT.
In that case, you can run the REAR CENTER OUTPUT to a
separate amplifier or powered speaker. With such a hook-
up, however, you will have limited ability to control the rear
center speaker level as this DVD player does not have a
master volume control. Center Rear volume trim is limited to
+/- 12 dB compared to the other channels. If you need more
volume adjustment capability, it should come from the
associated amplifier or powered speaker.
When using the 6.1 CH Audio Outs, adjustments for
speaker set-up, bass management, dynamic range control,
and surround sound mode should be made from this DVD
player and not from your amplifier or receiver.
(Refer to “When selecting the Dynamic Range Control”,
when selecting the SURROUND” and “When selecting the
SPEAKER OPTIONS” on pages 33-34.)
5. Connecting to an additional amplifier or TV set
This unit incorporates additional audio and video outputs such
as (composite) VIDEO OUT 2 and MIXED AUDIO OUT 2 for
use with a second TV or amplifier.
To connect these jacks correctly, refer to “Connecting
MIXED AUDIO OUT’s 1” and Connecting VIDEO OUTs”
described above.
6. AC INPUT CORD
When all connections are made, plug this cord into an AC
outlet.
7. VOLTAGE SELECTOR SWITCH (Optional by region)
In some countries, this unit operates on AC 115V or AC 230V.
If your unit has this capability, set the VOLTAGE SELECTOR
switch to match your line voltage before connecting the AC
input cord to an AC outlet.
8. A/V SCART CONNECTORs (Regional Option)
Refer to “CONNECTING TO TV AND VCR WITH SCART
CONNECTORS (Regional Option)” on page 9.
ENGLISH

ENGLISH
You can enjoy DVD Videos by simply connecting this unit to a TV. To hear improved audio sound quality, connect the MIXED
AUDIO OUTs 1 to your amplifier or receiver.
To connect these jacks correctly, refer to “Connecting MIXED AUDIO OUTs 1” and “Connecting VIDEO OUTs” on the
previous page.
Note :
If your TV has only a monaural audio input instead of stereo, you will need to use an optional audio cord which converts
stereo audio output to monaural.
Do not connect the VIDEO OUTs of the unit to the TV through a VCR. Otherwise the image may be disturbed due to the copy
protection builtinto the DVD software.
CONNECTING TO TV WITH AUDIO AND VIDEO INPUTS
When these VIDEO and DIGITAL INs are connected to the corresponding VIDEO and DIGITAL OUTs of additional DVD
player, etc., you can also enjoy high-quality audio and surround by using the built-in DTS/Dolby Digital/MPEG Multichannel
decoder of this unit. If this is the case, be sure to connect the 6.1 CH AUDIO OUTs (and MIXED AUDIO OUTs ) to your
amplifier or receiver.
When you connect the additional equipment with a digital output, before using, change the SYSTEM setting according to the
type of the DIGITAL OUT jack of the equipment connected. (Refer to “SETTING THE SYSTEM” on page 29.)
The digital audio signal from either the OPTICAL or the COAXIAL DIGITAL IN can be directly transferred to both of the
DIGITAL OUTs of this unit. If this is the case, be sure to connect these DIGITAL OUTs to your amplifier, etc.
A signal from the S-VIDEO IN can be directly transferred to only the S-VIDEO OUT and a signal from the regular VIDEO IN to
only the regular VIDEO OUTs 1 and 2.
Depending on your use, the unit’s settings should be set properly. With DIGITAL OUT connections, the DIGITAL OUTPUT
setting should be made from this unit and with 6.1 CH AUDIO OUT connections, settings for “D·R·C”, “SURROUND” and
“SPEAKER OPTIONS” on the AUDIO SETUP menu should be made.
For correct connection and use, refer to “Connecting DIGITAL OUTs” and “Connecting 6.1 CH AUDIO OUTs” on the previous
page.
The audio component such as CD player, etc. can be also connected to these DIGITAL INs only, not the VIDEO INs.

DVD Video
This refers to a high-density optical disc on which high-quality
pictures and sound have been recorded by means of digital
signals. Incorporating a new video compression technology
(MPEG II) and high-density recording technology. DVD Video
enables esthetically pleasing full-motion video to be recorded
over long periods of time (for instance, a whole movie can be
recorded).
DVD Video has a structure consisting of two 0.6 mm thin discs
which are adhered to each other. Since the thinner the disc, the
higher the density at which the information can be recorded, a
DVD Video has a greater capacity than a single 1.2 mm thick
disc. Since the two thin discs are adhered to each other, there
is the potential to achieve double-sided play sometime in the
future for even longer duration play.
MPEG (DVD Video)
MPEG stands for Moving Picture Expert Group. It is regarded
as an international standard for digital signal compression and
restoration for media.
Track number (CD)
Track numbers are used to designate the various sections of a
disc.

Videos. Usually, the title corresponds to a movie of video
software or an album (or a piece) of music software. Title
numbers are sequential numbers assigned to titles.
Chapter, Chapter number (DVD Video)
Chapters are divisions, which are smaller than the titles, of the
contents recorded on DVD Videos. Every title is composed of
more than one chapter. Chapter numbers are the sequential
numbers assigned to the chapters in a DVD Video.
Aspect ratio (DVD Video)
The aspect ratio is the ratio between the vertical and horizontal
size of the picture displayed on a TV screen. The aspect ratio
of normal TV screen is 4:3 while that of the wide-screen TV and
HDTV screens is 16:9.
Subtitle (DVD Video)
Some DVD Videos contain the recording of more than one
subtitle languages. With these discs, this unit can select one of
the subtitle languages as desired during playback.
Dolby Digital
This is the latest digital surround system developed by Dolby
Laboratories. Discs bearing the includes the
recording of up to 5.1 channels of digital signals, which can
reproduce much better sound quality, spatial expansion and
dynamic range characteristics than the previous Dolby
Surround effect.
Dolby Pro Logic
This is a specially encoded 2 channel surround format
designed to provide theater-like surround sound from Dolby
Pro Logic program sources bearing the .
Dolby Virtual
This employs sophiticated digital processing to create the
illusion of five phantom speakers. Therefore, this allows you
to experience a realistic multi-channel experience from the
Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic or 2 channel stereo digital audio
(recorded in linear PCM) program source, through just a single
pair of front speakers.
