TV Aspect

• Default setting: 16:9 Wide

If you have a widescreen TV, select the 16:9 Wide

setting—widescreen DVD software is then shown

using the full screen area. When playing software

recorded in conventional (4:3) format, the

settings on your TV will determine how the

material is presented—see the manual that came

with your TV for details on what options are

available. If your TV does not have settings for how

4:3 sources look, choose the 16:9 Squeeze

setting. The picture you see on your TV will be

determined by the disc. See page 34 for more

information.

If you have a conventional TV, choose either 4:3 L-

Box or 4:3 Pan Scan. In Letter Box mode,

widescreen software is shown with black bars at

the top and bottom of the screen. Pan & Scan

chops the sides off widescreen material to make it

fit the 4:3 screen (so even though the picture

looks larger on the screen, you’re actually seeing

less of the movie).

Note

• Some discs will not allow you to change the

aspect ratio.

Components Out

SCART Video Out

• Default setting: Interlace

(Europe Model only)

Compared to a standard interlaced TV picture, a

progressive scan TV is capable of stable, flicker-

free images.

• Default setting: Video

These settings are only applicable if you’re using the

A/V EURO CONNECTOR SCART-type connector.

Set only if you connected the COMPONENT

VIDEO OUT to a progressive scan-compatible TV

or monitor.

Important

If you make a setting here that is incompatible with

your TV, the TV may not display any picture at all.

If this happens either switch everything off and

reconnect to the TV using either the supplied

composite video cable, or an S-Video cable (see

pages 10-11 for more on this), or reset the unit

(see page 47 for how to do this).

• Progressive – Use this setting with TVs and

monitors that have progressive scan component

video inputs. Check the TV’s instruction manual

if you are not sure about this.

• Interlace – Use this setting with regular TVs

that are not compatible with progressive scan.

Check the TV’s instruction manual if you are

not sure about this.

• Video – Compatible with all TVs, but lowest

quality of the three AV settings.

• S-Video – Almost the same quality as RGB, but

can give better results if you are using a long

SCART cable.

Tip

If this player is set to output progressive-scan

video, it’s possible that the picture will appear

stretched when playing discs recorded in 4:3

format. This happens when the TV’s aspect ratio is

set to ‘Full’. To see the picture in its correct aspect

ratio, change the TV setting to ‘Normal’.

• RGB – If your TV is compatible, this setting

gives the best picture quality.

If your TV doesn’t have settings to change the

aspect ratio of the picture, set this player to 16:9

Squeeze.

Note

• If you connect a TV that is not compatible with

a progressive scan signal and choose one of the

progressive scan settings, you will not be able

to see any picture at all. With your TV con-

nected using either the composite or S-Video

terminals, choose the Interlace setting in the

Component Video menu.

• Compatibility of this unit with progressive-scan

TVs:

Note that not all high definition television sets

are fully compatible with this unit and may

cause artifacts to be displayed in the picture. In

case of progressive scan picture problems, try

switching the connection to the “STANDARD

DEFINITION” output.

Audio Out

Note

• Default setting: 2 Channel (Stereo)

• Even if you set Audio Out to 5.1 Channel,

you’ll only get sound from all speakers when

playing a multi-channel DVD-Audio disc, multi-

channel Super Audio CD disc, Dolby Digital or

DTS encoded DVD disc.

If you connected this player to your amplifier using

the 5.1 channel analog outputs (front, surround,

center and subwoofer outs), set this to 5.1

Channel; if you connected only the stereo

outputs, set to 2 Channel (Stereo).

• Set Digital Out (page 39) to Bitstream for

Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1 channel analog

output.

• 2 Channel (Lt/Rt)

Used to specify that DTS multi-channel input

or Dolby Digital multi-channel input is to be

downmixed into a format compatible with the

Dolby Surround matrix format. This option may

be selected to enjoy surround sound when the

player is connected to Dolby Surround-

compatible AV amplifier.

• Set Digital Out (page 39) to Off for DVD

Audio 192/176.4/96/88.2 kHz Hi Sampling

and 5.1 channel analog output.

• When you set it to 5.1 Channel, the overall

output level may sound quieter than when set

to 2 Channel (Stereo, Lt/Rt) or TruSurround.

• If you set to 2 Channel (Stereo), 2 Channel

(Lt/Rt), TruSurround, Dolby Digital and DTS

are mixed down to two channels so you still

hear all the audio recorded on the disc.

• TruSurround

If you connected your DVD player using only

the stereo analog outputs, you can simulate

surround sound.

• Some DVD-Audio discs don’t allow down-

mixing of audio. These discs always output

multi-channel audio regardless of the setting

made here.

Note

• Works with DVD-Video and VCD only.

• The digital audio output is processed by

TruSurround when playing 2 channel Dolby

Digital DVDs or Video CDs with TruSurround. It

is recommended that Audio Out is set to 2

channel (stereo or Lt/Rt) when connecting

the player to your amp using a coaxial or

optical connection.

• Change can be made only in the stop mode.

When RESUME is indicated on the display, put

the player in the STOP mode by pressing 7

(STOP) button.

• How good the surround effect is varies with the

disc.

• When TruSurround is selected, the audio can

be output only for the L/R channels on the

Front.

SRS TruSurround

SRS TruSurround uses technology that simulates

multichannel surround sound using only two

speakers.

Audio DRC

• Default setting: Off

When watching Dolby Digital DVDs at low volume,

it’s easy to lose the low level sounds completely,

including some of the dialog. Switching on Audio

DRC (Dynamic Range Compression) can help

things by bringing up the low level sounds, while

keeping the lid on high level peaks.

The Off setting leaves the original dynamics intact;

On ‘squashes’ the dynamics; but exactly how much

difference you can hear between the settings will

depend on the material you’re watching.

Remember

• Audio DRC is only effective with Dolby Digital

audio sources.

• The effect of Audio DRC depends on your

speakers and AV amplifier settings.

Handling discs

Discs to avoid

When holding discs of any type, take care not to

leave fingerprints, dirt or scratches on the disc

surface. Hold the disc by its edge or by the center

hole and edge.

Discs spin at high speed inside the player. If you

can see that a disc is cracked, chipped, warped, or

otherwise damaged, don't risk using it in your

player—you could end up damaging the unit.

This unit is designed for use with conventional,

fully circular discs only. Use of shaped discs is not

recommended for this product.

Damaged or dirty discs can affect playback

performance. Take care also not to scratch the

label side of the disc. Although not as fragile as

the recorded side, scratches can still result in a

disc becoming unusable.

Should a disc become marked with fingerprints,

dust, etc., clean using a soft, dry cloth, wiping the

disc lightly from the center to the outside edge as

shown in the diagram below.

Cleaning the pickup lens

The DVD player’s lens should not become dirty in

normal use, but if for some reason it should

malfunction due to dust or dirt, consult your

nearest MARANTZ-authorized service center.

Although lens cleaners for CD players are commer-

cially available, we do not recommend using them

since some may damage the lens.

Don’t wipe the disc surface

using circular strokes.

Wipe lightly from the

center of the disc using

straight strokes.

If necessary, use a cloth soaked in alcohol, or a

commercially available CD/DVD cleaning kit to

clean a disc more thoroughly. Never use benzine,

thinner or other cleaning agents, including

products designed for cleaning vinyl records.

Problems with condensation

Condensation may form inside the player if it is

brought into a warm room from outside, or if the

temperature of the room rises quickly. Although

the condensation won’t damage the player, it may

temporarily impair its performance. For this reason

you should leave it to adjust to the warmer

temperature for about an hour before switching on

and using.

Storing discs

Although CDs and DVD discs are more durable

than vinyl records, you should still take care to

handle and store discs correctly. When you're not

using a disc, return it to its case and store upright.

Avoid leaving discs in excessively cold, humid, or

hot environments (including under direct sun-

light).

Don't glue paper or put stickers onto the disc, or

use a pencil, ball-point pen or other sharp-tipped

writing instrument. These could all damage the

disc.

For more detailed care information see the

instructions that come with discs.

Do not load more than one disc into the player.

Additional Information

Hints on installation

Moving the player

We want you to enjoy using this unit for years to

come, so please bear in mind the following points

when choosing a suitable location for it:

If you need to move the player, first press POWER

ON/STANDBY button on the front panel to turn

the player off, then unplug the power cord. Never

lift or move the unit during playback—discs rotate

at a high speed and may be damaged.

Do...

✓ Use in a well-ventilated room.

✓ Place on a solid, flat, level surface, such as a

Power cord caution

table, shelf or stereo rack.

Handle the power cord by the plug part. Do not

pull out the plug by tugging the cord, and never

touch the power cord when your hands are wet, as

this could cause a short circuit or electric shock.

Do not place the unit, a piece of furniture, or

other object on the power cord or pinch the cord

in any other way. Never make a knot in the cord or

tie it with other cords. The power cords should be

routed so that they are not likely to be stepped

on. A damaged power cord can cause a fire or give

you an electric shock. Check the power cord once

in a while. If you find it damaged, ask your nearest

MARANTZ authorized service center or your

dealer for a replacement.

Don’t...

✗ Use in a place exposed to high temperatures or

humidity, including near radiators and other

heat-generating appliances.

✗ Place on a window sill or other place where the

player will be exposed to direct sunlight.

✗ Use in an excessively dusty or damp environ-

ment.

✗ Place directly on top of an amplifier, or other

component in your stereo system that becomes

hot in use.

✗ Use near a television or monitor as you may

experience interference—especially if the

television uses an indoor antenna.

✗ Use in a kitchen or other room where the player

may be exposed to smoke or steam.

✗ Use on a thick rug or carpet, or cover with

cloth—this may prevent proper cooling of the

unit.

✗ Place on an unstable surface, or one that is not

large enough to support all four of the unit’s

feet.

Additional Information

Dynamic range

Glossary

The difference between the quietest and loudest

sounds possible in an audio signal (without

distorting or getting lost in noise). Dolby Digital

and DTS soundtracks are capable of a very wide

dynamic range, delivering dramatic cinema-like

effects.

Analog audio

An electrical signal that directly represents sound.

Compare this to digital audio which can be an

electrical signal, but is an indirect representation

of sound. See also Digital audio.

Aspect ratio

File extension

The width of a TV screen relative to its height.

Conventional TVs are 4:3 (in other words, the

screen is almost square); widescreen models are

16:9 (the screen is almost twice as wide as it is

high).

A tag added to the end of a filename to indicate

the type of file. For example, “.mp3” indicates an

MP3 file.

Group (DVD-Audio only)

A collection of tracks on a DVD-Audio disc.

Equivalent to a DVD-Video title. See also Title and

Track.

Bonus Group (DVD-Audio only)

An ‘extra’ group on some DVD-Audio discs that

requires a key number to access. See also Group.

HDCP

Browsable pictures (DVD-Audio only)

A feature of some DVD-Audio discs in which the

user can browse still pictures recorded on the disc

as the audio is played. See also Slideshow.

HDCP is the acronym for High-bandwidth Digital

Content Protection.

It is an encrypting method for DVI-use images and

its purpose is the protection of image content

against illegal copying. Receiving the encrypted

signals requires a display with HDCP-compatible

DVI input.

Chapter (DVD-Video, DVD-RW)

Just as a book is split up into several chapters, a

title on a DVD disc is usually divided into chapters.
