Important

Safeguards

For your protection, please read these safety

instructions completely before operating the appliance,

and keep this manual for future reference.

Carefully observe all warnings, precautions and

instructions on the appliance, or the one described in

the operating instructions and adhere to them.

Use Installation

Power sources

This set should be operated only

from the type of power source

indicated on the marking label. If

you are not sure of the type of

electrical power supplied to your

home, consult your dealer or local power company.

For those sets designed to operate from battery power,

or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.

Grounding or Polarization

This set is equipped with a polarized ac power cord

plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other), or

with a three-wire grounding type plug (a plug having a

third pin for grounding). Follow the instructions

below:

For the set with a polarized AC power

cord plug:

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 plug should still fail to fit, contact your

electrician to have a suitable outlet installed. Do not

defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug by

forcing it in.

For the set with a three-wire grounding

type AC plug:

This plug will only fit into a

grounding-type power outlet. This

is a safety feature. If you are

unable to insert the plug into the

outlet, contact your electrician to have a suitable outlet

installed. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the

grounding plug.

Overloading

Do not overload wall outlets,

extension cords or convenience

receptacles beyond their capacity,

since this can result in fire or

electric shock.

Object and Liquid Entry

Never push objects of any kind into

the set through openings as they

may touch dangerous voltage points

or short out parts that could result in

a fire or electric shock. Never spill

liquid of any kind on the set.

Attachments

Do not use attachments not

recommended by the manufacturer, as

they may cause hazards.

Cleaning

Unplug the set from the wall outlet

before cleaning or polishing it. Do

not use liquid cleaners or aerosol

cleaners. Use a cloth lightly

dampened with water for cleaning

the exterior of the set.

Water and Moisture

Do not use power-line operated sets

near water - for example, near a

bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, or

laundry tub, in a wet basement, or

near a swimming pool, etc.

Power-Cord Protection

Route the power cord so that it is

not likely to be walked on or

pinched by items placed upon or

against them, paying particular

attention to the plugs, receptacles, and the point where

the cord exits from the appliance.

Accessories

Do not place the set on an

unstable cart, stand, tripod,

bracket, or table. The set may

fall, causing serious injury to a

child or an adult, and serious damage to the set. Use

only a cart stand tripod, bracket, or table recommended

by the manufacturer.

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.

Ventilation

The slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for

necessary ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of

the set, and to protect it from overheating, these slots

and openings must never be blocked or covered.

• Never cover the slots and

openings with a cloth or

other materials.

• Never block the slots and

openings by placing the set

on a bed, sofa, rug or other

similar surface.

Antennas

Service

• Never place the set in a

confined space, such as a

bookcase, or built-in

cabinet, unless proper

ventilation is provided.

• Do not place the set near or

over a radiator or heat

register, or where it is

exposed to direct sunlight.

Outdoor antenna grounding

If an outdoor antenna or cable system is installed,

follow the precautions below.

An outdoor antenna system should not be located in the

vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light

or power circuits, or where it can come in contact with

such power lines or circuits.

WHEN INSTALLING AN OUTDOOR ANTENNA

SYSTEM, EXTREME CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN

TO KEEP FROM CONTACTING SUCH POWER

LINES OR CIRCUITS AS CONTACT WITH THEM

IS ALMOST INVARIABLY FATAL.

Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide

some protection against voltage surges and built-up static

charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code

provides information with respect to proper grounding of

the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in

wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding

conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection

to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the

grounding electrode.

Antenna Grounding According to the

National Electrical Code

Lightning

For added protection for this set during a lightning

storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long

periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and

disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will

prevent damage to the set due to lightning and power-

line surges.

Damage Requiring Service

Unplug the set from the wall outlet and refer servicing

to qualified service personnel under the following

conditions:

• When the power cord or plug is

damaged or frayed.

• If liquid has been spilled or

objects have fallen into the

set.

• If the set has been exposed

to rain or water.

• If the set has been

subject to excessive

shock by being

dropped, or the cabinet

has been damaged.

• If the set does not operate

normally when following

the operating instructions.

Adjust only those controls

that are specified in the

operating instructions. Improper adjustment

of other controls may result in damage and

will often require extensive work by a

qualified technician to restore the set to normal

operation.

• When the set exhibits a distinct change in

performance - this indicates a need for service.

Servicing

Do not attempt to service the set

yourself as opening or removing

covers may expose you to

dangerous voltage or other

hazards.

Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

Replacement parts

When replacement parts are required, be sure the

service technician has used replacement parts specified

by the manufacturer that have the same characteristics

as the original parts.

Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric

shock, or other hazards.

Safety Check

Upon completion of any service or

repairs to the set, ask the service

technician to perform routine

safety checks (as specified by the

manufacturer) to determine that

the set is in safe operating

condition.

Precautions

On safety

• To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not

place objects filled with liquids, such as

vases, on the apparatus.

• Should any solid object or liquid fall into

the cabinet, unplug the player and have it

checked by qualified personnel before

operating it any further.

On power sources

• The player is not disconnected from the AC

power source as long as it is connected to

the wall outlet, even if the player itself has

been turned off.

• If you are not going to use the player for a

long time, be sure to disconnect the player

from the wall outlet. To disconnect the AC

power cord, grasp the plug itself; never pull

the cord.

On placement

• Place the player in a location with adequate

ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the

player.

• Do not place the player on a soft surface

such as a rug.

• Do not place the player in a location near

heat sources, or in a place subject to direct

sunlight, excessive dust, or mechanical

shock.

• Do not install the player in an inclined

position. It is designed to be operated in a

horizontal position only.

• Keep the player and the discs away from

equipment with strong magnets, such as

microwave ovens, or large loudspeakers.

• Do not place heavy objects on the player.

On operation

• If the player is brought directly from a cold

to a warm location, or is placed in a very

damp room, moisture may condense on the

lenses inside the player. Should this occur,

the player may not operate properly. In this

case, remove the disc and leave the player

turned on for about half an hour until the

moisture evaporates.

• When you move the player, take out any

discs. If you don’t, the disc may be

damaged.

On adjusting volume

Do not turn up the volume while listening to

a section with very low level inputs or no

audio signals. If you do, the speakers may be

damaged when a peak level section is played.

On cleaning

Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a

soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild

detergent solution. Do not use any type of

abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent

such as alcohol or benzine.

On cleaning discs, disc/lens cleaners

Do not use a commercially available

cleaning disc or disc/lens cleaner (wet or

spray type). These may cause the

apparatus to malfunction.

If you have any questions or problems

concerning your player, please consult your

nearest Sony dealer.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Caution: This player is capable of holding a

still video image or on-screen display image

on your television screen indefinitely. If

you leave the still video image or on-screen

display image displayed on your TV for an

extended period of time you risk permanent

damage to your television screen. Plasma

display panel televisions and projection

televisions are susceptible to this.

Some DVD+RWs/DVD+Rs, DVD-RWs/DVD-

Rs, or CD-Rs/CD-RWs cannot be played on this

player due to the recording quality or physical

condition of the disc, or the characteristics of the

recording device and authoring software.

The disc will not play if it has not been correctly

finalized. For more information, refer to the

operating instructions for the recording device.

Note that some playback functions may not work

with some DVD+RWs/DVD+Rs, even if they

have been correctly finalized. In this case, view

the disc by normal playback. Also some DATA

CDs/DATA DVDs created in Packet Write

format cannot be played.

• Music discs encoded with copyright protection

technologies

This product is designed to playback discs that

conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard.

conform to the CD standard and may not be

playable by this product.

• Note on DualDiscs

HDMI connector with the jack. Do not bend and apply pressure to the HDMI cord.

To connect to a TV with DVI input

Use an HDMI-DVI converter cord (not supplied). The DVI jack will not accept any audio

signals, so you have to use another audio connection in addition to this connection (page 21).

Furthermore, you cannot connect the HDMI OUT jack to DVI jacks that are not HDCP

compliant (e.g., DVI jacks on PC displays).

Using the PROGRESSIVE button

By using the PROGRESSIVE button on the front panel, you can select the signal format in

which the player outputs video signals (Progressive or Interlace), and the conversion method for

progressive signals. The PROGRESSIVE indicator lights up when the player outputs

progressive signals.

Each time you press PROGRESSIVE, the display changes as follows:

PROGRESSIVE AUTO

m

PROGRESSIVE VIDEO

m

NORMAL (INTERLACE)

◆PROGRESSIVE AUTO

Select this setting when:

– your TV accepts progressive signals, and,

– the TV is connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks.

Normally select this under the above condition. This automatically detects the software type, and

selects the appropriate conversion method.

Note that the picture will not be clear or no picture will appear if you select these settings when

either of the above conditions is not met.

◆PROGRESSIVE VIDEO

Select this setting when:

– your TV accepts progressive signals, and,

– the TV is connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks, and,

– you want to fix the conversion method to PROGRESSIVE VIDEO for video-based software.

Select this if the image is not clear when you select PROGRESSIVE AUTO.

Note that the picture will not be clear or no picture will appear if you select these settings when

either of the above conditions is not met.

◆NORMAL (INTERLACE)

Select this setting when:

– your TV does not accept progressive signals, or,

– your TV is connected to jacks other than the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks (LINE OUT

(VIDEO) or S VIDEO OUT).

You cannot select this setting while the HDMI indicator is lit.

About DVD software types and the conversion method

DVD software can be divided into two types: film-based software and video based software.

Video-based software is derived from TV, such as dramas and sit-coms, and displays images at

30 frames/60 fields per second. Film-based software is derived from film and displays images at

24 frames per second. Some DVD software contains both video and film.

In order for these images to appear natural on your screen when output in progressive format,

the progressive signals need to be converted to match the type of DVD software that you are

watching.

Note

When you play video-based software in progressive signal format, sections of some types of images may

appear unnatural due to the conversion process when output through the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks.

Images from the S VIDEO OUT and LINE OUT (VIDEO) jacks are unaffected as they are output in the

normal (interlace) format.

About audio signals

Audio signals recorded in a disc contain the

sound elements (channels) shown below.

Each channel is output from a separate

speaker.

• Front (L)

• Front (R)

•Center

• Rear (L)

• Rear (R)

• Rear (Monaural): This signal can be either

the Dolby Surround Sound processed

signals or the Dolby Digital sound’s

monaural rear audio signals.

• LFE (Low Frequency Effect) signal

Note

If “DTS” is set to “OFF” in “AUDIO SETUP”

(page 68) the DTS track selection option will not

appear on the screen even if the disc contains DTS

tracks.

TV Virtual Surround

Settings (TVS)

When you connect a stereo TV or 2 front

speakers, TVS (TV Virtual Surround) lets

you enjoy surround sound effects by using

sound imaging to create virtual rear speakers

from the sound of the front speakers (L: left,

R: right) without using actual rear speakers.

TVS was developed by Sony to produce

surround sound for home use using just a

stereo TV.

This only works when playing a multichannel

Dolby audio sound track. Furthermore, if the

player is set up to output the signal from the

DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL or COAXIAL)/

HDMI OUT jack, the surround effect will

only be heard when “DOLBY DIGITAL” is

set to “D-PCM” in “AUDIO SETUP” (page

67).

1Press SUR during playback.

The following display appears.

2Press SUR repeatedly to select

To cancel the setting

Select “OFF” in step 2.

◆TVS DYNAMIC THEATER

Creates one set of LARGE virtual rear

speakers and virtual subwoofer from the

sound of the front speakers (L, R) without

using actual rear speakers and subwoofer

(shown below).

This mode is effective when the distance

between the front L and R speakers is short,

such as with built-in speakers on a stereo TV.

◆TVS DYNAMIC

Creates one set of virtual rear speakers from

the sound of the front speakers (L, R) without

using actual rear speakers (shown below).

This mode is effective when the distance

between the front L and R speakers is short,

such as with built-in speakers on a stereo TV.

◆TVS WIDE

Creates five sets of virtual rear speakers from

the sound of the front speakers (L, R) without

using actual rear speakers (shown below).

This mode is effective when the distance

between the front L and R speakers is short,

such as with built-in speakers on a stereo TV.

◆TVS NIGHT

Large sounds, such as explosions, are

suppressed, but the quieter sounds are

unaffected. This feature is useful when you

want to hear the dialog and enjoy the

surround sound effects of “TVS WIDE” at

low volume.

◆TVS STANDARD

Creates three sets of virtual rear speakers

from the sound of the front speakers (L, R)

without using actual rear speakers (shown

below). Use this setting when you want to use

TVS with 2 separate speakers.

Notes

• When the playing signal does not contain a signal

for the rear speakers, the surround effects cannot

be heard.

• When you select one of the TVS modes, turn off

the surround setting of the connected TV or

amplifier (receiver).

• Make sure that your listening position is between

and at an equal distance from your speakers and

that the speakers are located in similar

surroundings.

• Not all discs will respond to the “TVS NIGHT”

function in the same way.

• If you use the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL or

COAXIAL)/HDMI OUT jack and set “DOLBY

DIGITAL” to “DOLBY DIGITAL,” and “DTS”

to “ON” in “AUDIO SETUP,” sound will come

from your speakers but it will not have the

SURROUND effect.

• The TVS effects do not work when using the Fast

Play or Slow Play functions, even though you can

change the TVS modes.

Troubleshooting

If you experience any of the following

difficulties while using the player, use this

troubleshooting guide to help remedy the

problem before requesting repairs. Should

any problem persist, consult your nearest

Sony dealer (For customers in the USA only).

that the signal from the player appears on

the TV screen.

,The disc is dirty or flawed.

,If the picture output from your player goes

through your VCR to get to your TV or if

you are connected to a combination TV/

VIDEO player, the copy-protection signal

applied to some DVD programs could affect

picture quality. If you still experience

problems even when you connect your

player directly to your TV, try connecting

your player to your TV’s S VIDEO input

(page 17).

,You have selected “PROGRESSIVE

AUTO” or “PROGRESSIVE VIDEO”

using the PROGRESSIVE button on the

front panel (the PROGRESSIVE indicator

lights up) even though your TV cannot

accept the progressive signal. In this case,

disconnect the HDMI cord from the player

and then select “NORMAL

(INTERLACE)” so that the

PROGRESSIVE indicator turns off.

,Even if your TV is compatible with

progressive format 480p signals, the image

may be affected when you set the player to

progressive format. In this case, select

“NORMAL (INTERLACE)” using the

PROGRESSIVE button on the front panel

so that the PROGRESSIVE indicator turns

off and the player is set to normal (interlace)

format.

,The player is connected to an input device

that is not HDCP compliant (the HDMI

indicator on the front panel does not light

up). See page 18.

,If the HDMI OUT jack is used for video

output, changing the “HDMI

RESOLUTION” setting in “SCREEN

SETUP” may solve the problem (page 63).

Connect the TV and the player using a video

jack other than the HDMI OUT, and switch

the TV’s input to the connected video input

so that you can see the on-screen displays.

Change the “HDMI RESOLUTION”

setting in “SCREEN SETUP,” and switch

the TV’s input back to HDMI. If the picture

still does not appear, repeat the steps and try

other options.

,If the signal from the LINE OUT (VIDEO)

or S VIDEO OUT jacks is distorted, change

the “HDMI RESOLUTION” setting in

“SCREEN SETUP” to “720 × 480p.”

There is no picture or the picture noise

appears when connected to the HDMI OUT

jack.

,Try the following: 1Turn the player off

and on again. 2Turn the connected

equipment off and on again. 3Disconnect

and then connect the HDMI cord again.

The picture does not fill the screen, even

though the aspect ratio is set in “TV TYPE”

under “SCREEN SETUP.”

,The aspect ratio of the disc is fixed on your

DVD.

Sound

There is no sound.

,Re-connect the connecting cord securely.

,The connecting cord is damaged.

,The player is connected to the wrong input

jack on the amplifier (receiver) (page 21).

,The amplifier (receiver) input is not

correctly set.

,The player is in pause mode or in Slow-

motion Play mode.

,The player is in fast forward or fast reverse

mode.

,If the audio signal does not come through

the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL or

COAXIAL)/HDMI OUT jack, check the

audio settings (page 67).

,While playing a Super VCD on which the

audio track 2 is not recorded, no sound will

come out when you select “2:STEREO,”

“2:1/L,” or “2:2/R.” ,continued

DVD also uses a variable rate coding

technology that changes the data to be

allocated according to the status of the

picture. Audio information is recorded in a

multi-channel format, such as Dolby Digital,

allowing you to enjoy a more realistic audio

presence.

Furthermore, various advanced functions

such as the multi-angle, multilingual, and

Parental Control functions are provided with

the DVD.

DVD-RW (page 7)

A DVD-RW is a recordable and rewritable

disc that is the same size as a DVD VIDEO.

The DVD-RW has two different modes: VR

mode and Video mode. DVD-RWs created in

Video mode have the same format as a DVD

VIDEO, while discs created in VR (Video

Recording) mode allow the contents to be

programmed or edited.

DVD+RW (page 7)

A DVD+RW (plus RW) is a recordable and

rewritable disc. DVD+RWs use a recording

format that is comparable to the DVD VIDEO

format.

File (page 50, 53)

A JPEG image recorded on a DATA CD/

DATA DVD (“File” is an exclusive

definition for this player.) A single file

consist of a single image.

Film based software, Video based

software (page 20)

DVDs can be classified as Film based or

Video based software. Film based DVDs

contain the same images (24 frames per

second) that are shown at movie theaters.

Video based DVDs, such as television

dramas or sit-coms, displays images at 30

frames/60 fields per second.

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia

Interface)

HDMI is an interface that supports both video

and audio on a single digital connection. The

HDMI connection carries standard to high

definition video signals and multi-channel

audio signals to AV components such as

HDMI equipped TVs, in digital form without

degradation.

Since the video signals are compatible with

the current DVI (Digital Visual Interface)

format, HDMI jacks can be connected to DVI

jacks by way of an HDMI-DVI converter

cord. The HDMI specification supports

HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Contents

Protection), a copy protection technology that

incorporates coding technology for digital

video signals.

Normal (Interlace) format (page 20)

Normal (Interlace) format shows every other

line of an image as a single “field” and is the

standard method for displaying images on

television. The even number field shows the

even numbered lines of an image, and the odd

numbered field shows the odd numbered lines

of an image.

Progressive format (page 20)

Compared to the Interlace format that

alternately shows every other line of an image

(field) to create one frame, the Progressive

format shows the entire image at once as a

single frame. This means that while the

Interlace format can show 30 frames/60 fields

in one second, the Progressive format can

show 60 frames in one second. The overall

picture quality increases and still images,

text, and horizontal lines appear sharper. This

player is compatible with the 480 progressive

format.

Progressive JPEG

Progressive JPEGs are used mostly on the

internet. They are different from other JPEGs

in that they “fade in” gradually instead of

being drawn from top to bottom when

displayed on a browser. This lets you view the

image while it is being downloaded.

Title (page 11)

The longest section of a picture or music

feature on a DVD, movie, etc., in video

software, or the entire album in audio

software.
