Preparations
C Connecting to a TV with component jacks
You can enjoy picture of high-fidelity color reproduction by
connecting the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks on the unit to
your TV.
About the scanning mode
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-second interlaced)
information.
NOTES
• Connect “Y” to “Y,” “PB” to “PB” (CB), “PR” to “PR” (CR) correctly.
• When using the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks, do not
connect the S-VIDEO output jack on the unit.
• If your TV has component video input jacks of BNC type, use an
adapter which converts a pin jack to a BNC jack (not supplied).
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.
Progressive scan video playback available
In the Progressive scanning mode, you can enjoy high quality
picture with less flickers when the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT
jacks are connected to a TV or monitor that supports the
progressive video input.

unnatural picture when playing back a DVD VIDEO disc in the
Progressive scanning mode. In such a case, use the Interlaced
scanning mode. To check the compatibility of your TV set,
contact your local JVC customer service center.
When the scanning mode is set to the Progressive mode, the

• If you interrupt the playback of a disc for which an interrupted
position has already been stored, the memory will be updated
with the new interrupted position.
• For a double-sided DVD VIDEO disc, the unit regards each side
as a different disc. Therefore, to resume playback of such a
disc, the disc must be inserted with the same side down.
• When the unit memorizes an interrupted point for a disc, it also
memorizes Audio, Subtitle and Angle settings.
• The unit may not resume playback exactly from the interrupted
point. In the case of an SVCD/Video CD disc with PBC function,
the unit may resume playback from a point slightly earlier or
later than the point where playback was interrupted.

Appendix D: Glossary
525i/525p
JPEG
Indicates the number of scanning lines and scanning format of an
image signal. 525i indicates 525 scanning lines with interlace
format, and 525p indicates 525 scanning lines with progressive
format.
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
Aspect ratio
• lossless JPEG: an old type, rarely used now
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.
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.
Bitstream
The digital form of multichannel audio data (e.g., 5.1-channel)
before it is decoded into its various channels.
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.
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.
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.
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
MPEG Multichannel
A single video signal commonly used in most consumer video
products that contains all luminance, color, and synchronization
information.
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.
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.
NTSC (National television system committee)
A black and white and color TV system format used in the U.S.A.,
Canada, Mexico and Japan.
PAL (Phase Alternation by Line)
A color TV system format used extensively in Western Europe.
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.
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.
Progressive scanning
Progressive scanning displays all the horizontal lines of a picture
at one time, as a single frame. A progressive scanning DVD unit
converts the interlaced (525i) video from DVD into progressive
(525p) format for connection to a progressive display. It
dramatically increases the vertical resolution.
Down-mix
S-video
Internal stereo mix of multichannel surround audio by a DVD unit.
A video signal which improves picture quality over standard
composite connections. Used on Super VHS, DVD, high end TV
monitors, etc.
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 unit or in an external receiver. DTS stands for Digital
Theater Systems.
Track
The smallest division on SVCD, Video CD and Audio CD discs.
WMA
Not all DTS discs contain six (5.1) channels of information.
WMA is an abbreviation of “Windows Media Audio,” and is an
audio data compression format developed by Microsoft
Corporation. Sound quality of data compressed using WMA is
the same as that of MP3, though the WMA file size is smaller
than that of MP3.
Dynamic range
The difference between the loudest and softest sounds.
Interlaced scanning
In a conventional video system, a picture is shown on the display
monitor in between lines of two halves. The Interlaced scanning
system places lines of the second half of the picture in-between
lines of the first half of the picture.
