About discs
Playable and non-playable disc types are as follows:
The DVD Logo is a trademark.
• CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded in the SVCD, Video
CD, Audio CD, MP3 or JPEG format can be played
back. However, some discs may not be played back
because of the disc characteristics or recording
conditions.
Note that unfinalized discs cannot be played back.
• DVD-R discs recorded with the DVD VIDEO format can
be played back. However, some discs may not be
played back because of the disc characteristics or
recording conditions.
Note that unfinalized disc cannot be played back.
• DVD VIDEO players and DVD VIDEO discs have their
own Region Code numbers. This unit can play back
only DVD VIDEO discs whose Region Code numbers
include "2."
Examples of playable DVD VIDEO discs:
The unit is compatible with the PAL and NTSC systems,
and can play back discs whose Region Code numbers
include number "2." You can select "NTSC" or "PAL"
while using the NTSC/REMOTE/PAL switch on the rear
panel (for details, see page 6).
DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, DVD-RW, DVD+RW, CD-ROM,
PHOTO CD, CD-EXTRA, CD-G, CD-TEXT, SACD, MIX-
MODE CD
• Playing back discs listed as "Non-playable discs" above
may generate noise and damage speakers.
• This unit can play back audio signals recorded in CD-G,
CD-EXTRA, CD-TEXT and MIX-MODE CD discs.
Some audio formats used on discs are described below.
•LinearPCM
Uncompressed digital audio, the same format used on
CDs and most studio masters.
DVD AUDIO supports up to six channels at sample
rates of 48/96/192 kHz (also 44.1/88.2/176.4 kHz) and
sample sizes of 16/20/24 bits.
DVD VIDEO supports two channels at sampling rates
of 48/96 kHz and quantization of 16/20/24 bits.
Audio CD/Video CD limited to two channels, 44.1 kHz
at 16 bits.
• MPEG Multichannel
A surround audio format which can handle the
augmentative 7.1-channel format (rare for home use),
as well as 5.1-channel.
• Dolby Digital
A surround audio format configured with six channels.
Because the "LFE (Low-Frequency Effect for sub-
woofer, etc.)" channel, one of the six channels, is an
auxiliary channel, this format is called "5.1-channel
system."
Not all Dolby Digital discs contain six (5.1) channel
information.
• DTS (Digital Theater Systems)
A surround audio format configured with six (5.1)
channels which is same as Dolby Digital. Because the
compression ratio is lower than Dolby Digital, it
provides wider dynamic range and better separation.
Not all DTS discs contain six (5.1) channels
information.
• MLP (Meridian Lossless Packing)
A format for DVD AUDIO with the compression ratio of
about 2:1 while allowing the PCM signal to be
completely recreated by the MLP decoder (required in
all DVD AUDIO players). It supports up to 192 kHz/24
bit.
The associated indicator lights up in the display window
when playing back a disc.
* When playing back a DVD AUDIO disc recorded by
MLP (Meridian Lossless Packing; a lossless audio
compression system that can completely recreate the
PCM signal), no indicator lights up in the display
window.
Note that with some formats and/or depending on the
unit’s [DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT] setting, digital audio
signals may not be always transmitted from the unit’s
DIGITAL OUT jacks as they are recorded on the disc.
See [DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT] on page 60 for details.

(For DVD AUDIO)
A DVD AUDIO disc is comprised of "groups," and each
group is comprised of "tracks." Some DVD AUDIO discs
also contain a "bonus group" that can be played back by
entering the "key number" (a kind of password). Usually
the contents of a "bonus group" are not opened to the
public. Note that most DVD AUDIO discs include other
information in addition to audio, such as still pictures,
movies and text.
(For DVD VIDEO)
A DVD VIDEO disc is comprised of "titles" and each title
may be divided into "chapters." For example, if a DVD
VIDEO disc contains some movies, each movie may have
its own title number, and each movie may be divided
into some chapters. In a DVD VIDEO KARAOKE disc,
each song usually has its own title number and does not
have chapters.
(For SVCD/Video CD/Audio CD)
An SVCD, Video CD or Audio CD is simply comprised of
"tracks."
What is Playback Control (PBC) function?
The Playback Control function allows you to enjoy menu-
driven operation and high-resolution still images which
have a resolution four times greater than moving
pictures.
• High-resolution still image display
You can display high-quality images four times clearer
than moving pictures.
• Menu-driven playback
A selection menu is displayed when you start playing a
SVCD or Video CD disc with the Playback Control
feature. The selection menu shows a list of numbers
for selection. Some discs may show moving pictures
or a divided screen.
You can interact with the screen using the menu
display to select and play an entry.
See illustration below about basic feature of menu-
driven playback (See page 27 for more information
about PBC (Playback Control).).
How to handle discs
When handling a disc, do not touch the surface of the
disc. Since discs are made of plastic, they are easily
damaged. If a disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped,
the images and sound will not be picked up correctly,
and such a disc may cause the player to malfunction.
Label side
Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any
adhesive on its surface.
Storage
Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are
piled on top of one another without their protective
cases, they can be damaged. Do not put discs in a
location where they may be exposed to direct sunlight,
or in a place where the humidity or temperature is high.
Avoid leaving discs in your car!
Maintenance of discs
If there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering to a disc,
wipe with a soft dry cloth, moving from the center
outwards.
If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a cloth moistened
with water. Never use record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or
any anti-static agents.

To switch the signal format from the remote control unit
If you set the NTSC/REMOTE/PAL switch on the rear panel to "REMOTE," you can select the component signal format
from the remote control unit.
• Before this operation, set the NTSC/REMOTE/PAL switch on the rear panel to "REMOTE," while the unit is turned off.
Press and hold down the PAL/NTSC button
The signal format switches between the PAL and NTSC.
To check the current signal format, press PAL/NTSC button while the unit is turned on. The display window on the front
panel shows the current status ([NTSC] or [PAL]).
To make the Progressive scanning mode selection active
The unit supports the Progressive scanning system as well as the conventional Interlaced scanning system. If your
television or monitor supports the progressive video input, you can enjoy a high quality picture by making the
Progressive scanning mode active.
The Progressive scanning mode selection only works when NTSC/REMOTE/PAL switch on the rear panel is set to "NTSC"
or "REMOTE." However, note that, when the NTSC/REMOTE/PAL switch on the rear panel is set to "REMOTE" and set
NTSC system from the remote control unit first.
• When the unit turned on, and the NTSC/REMOTE/PAL switch on the rear panel is set to "NTSC" or "REMOTE."
NOTES
• When switching the signal format from the remote control, make sure that the disc is stopped.
• You must change the switch position on the rear panel while unit power is off. Otherwise, the changed setting is not effective.
• If you set the NTSC/REMOTE/PAL switch on the rear panel is set to "REMOTE" or "NTSC," the unit output the signals from the
COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks only.
• When you set the NTSC/REMOTE/PAL switch on the rear panel is set to "REMOTE," the VIDEO SIGNAL SELECTOR on the rear
panel is not effective.
About SCANNING MODE
To display video on the television (monitor) screen, the conventional scanning method is called "Interlaced scanning."
With this method, only half of the horizontal lines are displayed at a time. So two fields complete a single picture
(frame); i,e., the first field, containing all the odd-numbered lines, is displayed followed by the second field, containing
all the even-numbered lines.
On the other hand, the Progressive scanning is resulting in flicker-free, high-density picture.
Depending on the material source format, DVD VIDEO discs can be classified into two types; film source and video
source (note that some DVD VIDEO discs contain both film source and video source). Film sources are recorded as 24-
frame-per-second information, while (NTSC) video sources are recorded as 30-frame-per-second (60-field-per-secon
interlaced) information.
When the unit plays back a film source material, uninterlaced progressive output signals are created using the original
information. When a video source material is played back, the unit interleaves lines between the interlaced lines on
each to create the interpolated picture and outputs as the progressive signal.

You can enhance the playback sound quality by connecting either of the unit’s DIGITAL OUT jacks to the digital input of
an amplifier, etc. by using an optical or a coaxial digital cable (optional). The digital audio signal from a disc will be
transferred directly. If you connect the unit to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder or an amplifier with a built-in decoder using
an optional digital cable, you can enjoy high-quality surround sound.
For a digital connection, connect the unit’s DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) to the digital input of a digital audio
device using an optical or a coaxial digital cable.
Note that the DIGITAL OUT jacks on the unit have been designed and equipped exclusively for enjoying the digital
surround sound playback through the unit. It is not recommended to use the jacks for digital dubbing. When recording
the sounds (DVD AUDIO, DVD VIDEO, SVCD, Video CD or Audio CD) played back on the unit, record them through the
analog jacks (in this case, set [ANALOG OUT] in the [AUDIO] preference display to [2-CH STEREO]) (see page 60).
When all the audio/video connections have been made, insert the AC power plug to the wall outlet. Make sure that plugs
are inserted firmly. The STANDBY/ON button lights in red.
Warning
• Disconnect the power cord if you are not going to use the unit for a long time.
• Disconnect the power cord before cleaning the unit.
• Disconnect the power cord before moving the unit.
• Do not connect or disconnect the power cord with wet hands.
• Do not pull the power cord when disconnecting it, as this may damage the cord and cause fire, electric shock, or other
accidents.
Caution
• Do not alter, twist or pull the power cord, or put anything heavy on it, which may cause fire, electric shock, or other
accidents.
• If the cord is damaged, consult a dealer and have the power cord replaced with a new one.
To connect to a digital audio device
NOTES
• When you make digital connection, we recommend also to make the analog connection, because, depending on discs, no
signal may be output from the DIGITAL OUT.
• When you connect the unit’s DIGITAL OUT to a digital audio device, before using, set [DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT] in the [AUDIO]
preferences correctly according to the connected audio device. If [DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT] is not set correctly, loud noise may
be generated from speakers, causing damage to them. See [DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT] on page 60.
• When you connect the unit’s DIGITAL OUT to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder (or amplifier with a built-in decoder) to enjoy
surround sound, the unit’s [D. RANGE COMPRESSION] setting in the [AUDIO] preferences is invalid. Make appropriate
surround audio settings on the decoder.
