Basic operations of HDMI CEC
Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) is device controlling signals optionally employed for the High-Definition
Multimedia Interface (HDMI) standard. When devices equipped with CEC are connected, each device can
control the others.
This system is compatible with some basic functions of HDMI CEC.
External device compatible
with HDMI CEC
TV compatible with
HDMI CEC
HDMI cable (not supplied)
Main unit
• When you start playback on the main unit, the connected TV automatically turns on.
• When you select the main unit as the source of the TV, picture and sound from the main unit are automati-
cally produced.
• When you turn off the TV, the main unit automatically turns off. (This function works when “ON 1” is
selected for “CEC” in the preference screen. Refer to page 42.)
• When you select the menu screen language of the TV, and then the main unit is turned off and turned on
again, the same language is automatically selected on the main unit. (The selectable languages are limited
to those supported by this system.)
• As long as the connected TV is compatible, you can use the operations of the TV to start playback, adjust
the volume and operate other functions on the main unit.
NOTE
• This function is available only when the source is set to “DVD” or “USB”.
• This function is available when “ON 1” or “ON 2” is selected for “CEC” in the preference screen (refer to
page 42).
• For details about the CEC function, refer to the operations manuals of the connected CEC devices.
• If the power cable is not connected to an AC outlet, the CEC function does not work, even when the main
unit is connected to CEC devices.
• Not all HDMI devices are compatible with CEC. If the main unit is connected to non-CEC compatible
devices, these devices cannot be controlled using the CEC function.
• The CEC function may not work with some CEC devices. (When the main unit is connected to a non-JVC
product, the CEC function may not work.)
• The CEC function may not work depending on the settings or status of the main unit or the connected CEC
devices.
• When connecting the main unit to a TV with an HDMI cable for the first time after purchase, confirm that
“JVC” (the initial screen) appears.
• When you disconnect the HDMI cable and connect it again, confirm that “JVC” appears.
• If the CEC function does not work properly, select “OFF” for the “CEC” setting, and then select “ON 1” or
“ON 2” again. (Refer to page 42.)

their own region code numbers. This system can
play back a DVD VIDEO whose region code num-
ber includes the system’s region code, which is
indicated on the rear panel of the main unit.
1 Discs should be finalized before being played
back.
*
2 This system may not recognize some USB
devices. This system cannot play back a file
whose data volume is more than 2 gigabytes
and a file whose data transfer rate is more than
2 Mbps.
*
Examples:
For Central and South America

America, Middle Eastern countries or South Africa
It is possible to play back finalized +R/+RW (DVD
Video Format only) discs. “DVD” lights on the front
display panel when a +R/+RW disc is loaded.
Some discs may not be played back because of
their disc characteristics, recording conditions, or
damage or stains on them.
If a DVD VIDEO with an improper region code
number is loaded, playback cannot start.
• On some DVD VIDEOs, DVD AUDIOs, VCDs,
SVCDs or DivX files, their actual operation
may be different from what is explained in
this manual. This is due to the disc/file pro-
gramming and disc/file structure, not a mal-
function of this system.
Only sounds can be played back from the following
discs:
MIX-MODE CD
CD-EXTRA
CD-G
CD TEXT
This system accommodates the PAL and NTSC
systems. When you play back an NTSC disc with
the video signal type set to “PAL. 576I”,
“PAL. 576P”, “PAL. 720P”, “PAL.1080I” or
“PAL.1080P” (refer to page 11), the NTSC video
signal is converted to the PAL60 signal and output.

999 tracks/files per group and up to 99 groups on a
disc. Since the system ignores the tracks/files with
numbers exceeding 999 and the groups with num-
bers exceeding 99, these cannot be played back.
If there are any type of files other than MP3/WMA/
