Notes on DVDs and Video CDs  
Some playback operations of DVDs and Video CDs  
may be intentionally fixed by software manufacturers.  
As this unit plays DVDs and Video CDs according to

ware. The region code on the labels of some DVD discs  
indicates which type of player can play those discs. This  
unit can play only DVD discs labeled “2” or “ALL”. If you

Before Use (Continued)  
Precautions  
Storing discs  
After playing, store the disc in its case.  
Handling the unit  
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of  
heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct sun-  
light, as there may be a considerable temperature  
increase inside the car.  
When shipping the unit  
The original shipping carton and packing materials  
come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the  
unit as it was originally packed at the factory.  
Cleaning discs  
When setting up the unit  
Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor pic-  
ture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean  
the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the cen-  
ter out.  
The picture and sound of a nearby TV, VCR, or radio  
may be distorted during playback. In this case, position  
the unit away from the TV, VCR, or radio, or turn off the  
unit after removing the disc.  
To keep the exterior surfaces clean  
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray,  
near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in  
contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will  
leave marks on the surface.  
Cleaning the unit  
Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine,  
thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static  
spray intended for older vinyl records.  
To clean the cabinet  
Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty,  
use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent  
solution. Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol,  
benzine, or thinner, as these might damage the surface  
of the unit.

Tips  
If your television is a high-definition or “digital ready”  
television, you may take advantage of the DVD  
Player’s progressive scan output for the highest  
video resolution possible.  
Depending on your TV and other equipment you wish  
to connect, there are various ways you could connect  
the player. Use only one of the connections  
described below.  
If your TV does not accept the Progressive Scan for-  
mat, the picture will appear scrambled if you try  
Progressive Scan on the DVD Player.  
Please refer to the manuals of your TV, VCR, Stereo  
System or other devices as necessary to make the  
best connections.  
For better sound reproduction, connect the player’s  
AUDIO OUT jacks to the audio in jacks of your  
amplifier, receiver, stereo or audio/video equipment.

DVD-A  
Since DVD Audio discs can hold a lot of content, there  
are various ways to see what’s available on the disc.  
1 Press OSD during playback.  
DVD Audio is a new disc format building on the success  
of DVD to provide high quality, uncompressed, multi-  
channel audio for a new experience in audio quality. A  
DVD Audio disc can be identified by the DVD audio logo  
on the disc jacket or on the disc itself.  
DVD Audio can provide higher quality stereo than Audio  
CDs with a sampling rate of up to 192kHz (compared to  
44.1kHz for CDs). DVD Audio digital sound can be  
delivered with up to 24 bits of data (compared to 16 bits  
for a standard CD).  
A typical DVD Audio disc contains up to seven times the  
data capacity of a CD. This additional space is used for  
music, either Advanced Resolution multi-channel sound  
quality that is closer to the artist’s master recording or  
for longer recordings. Many DVD Audio discs contain  
on-screen text, such as artist biographies, playlists, or  
lyrics. Some DVD Audio discs contain photo galleries or  
video clips.  
2 Press 3/4to select Page icon.  
3 Press 1/2 to select a page number.  
What appears on the screen will vary from disc to disc  
because the information available depends upon the way the  
disc was created.  
Note  
Since the authoring of DVD Audio Discs varies, some of  
the on-screen display choices might not be available for  
the disc you’re playing.  
Note  
To enjoy maximum sound quality and surround effect of  
DVD Audio, you must use 5.1 channel analog audio output  
(5.1CH AUDIO OUT jacks on the DVD Player). If you use  
the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) for your audio  
connection, the sound will only be similar to CD-quality  
sound even though you’re playing a DVD Audio disc.  
1/6  
Moving to another GROUP  
DVD-A  
Some DVD Audio discs divide content into different  
groups. Your player enables you to quickly access dif-  
ferent groups during playback via the on-screen display.  
1 Press OSD during playback on in stop mode.  
2 Press 3/4to select Group icon.  
3 Press 1/2 or the numbered buttons (0-9) to select a  
group number.  
Note  
Sometimes the author of the disc creates hidden con-  
tent that can only be accessed by entering a password.  
If the lock icon appears on the TV screen, enter the  
password (sometimes you’ll find it on the disc’s jacket  
cover or on a web site). This password control isn’t dic-  
tated by your DVD Player — it is a function of the disc.  
Since the authoring of DVD Audio Discs varies, some of  
the on-screen display choices might not be available for  
the disc you’re playing.

Playing an Audio CD and MP3/WMA Disc  
About MP3  
CD  
MP3  
WMA  
An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using the  
MPEG1 audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call  
files that have the “.mp3” file extension “MP3 files”.  
The player can not read an MP3 file that has a file  
extension other than “.mp3”.  
The DVD Player can play MP3/WMA formatted record-  
ings on CD-ROM, CD-R or CD-RW discs.  
Before playing MP3/WMA recordings, read the notes on  
MP3/WMA Recordings on right.  
Insert a disc and close the tray.

2. Bit rate / within 32 - 320kbps (MP3),

3. CD-R physical format should be “ISO 9660”  
4. If you record MP3/WMA files using the software  
which cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example  
“Direct-CD” etc., it is impossible to playback  
MP3/WMA files. We recommend that you use “Easy-  
CD Creator”, which creates an ISO9660 file system.  
5. A single session disc requires MP3/WMA files in the  
first track. If there is no MP3/WMA file in the 1st  
track, it cannot playback MP3/WMA files. If you wish  
to playback MP3/WMA files, format all the data in  
the disc or use a new one.

certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal  
playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically  
set to these standards. There are many different types  
of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing  
MP3 or WMA files). That require certain pre-existing

Detailed Descriptions for Video Modes  
MODE1: The source material of the DVD video (film material  
or video material) is determined from disc information.  
MODE2: Suitable for playing film based content or video based  
material recorded by the progressive scan method.  
MODE3: Suitable for playing video based content with compar-

HDCD Playback  
HDCD is a process that increases the fidelity of both  
specially encoded HDCD discs and standard CD audio  
discs. When an HDCD-encoded disc is playing, the spe-  
cial decoder is automatically activated and the HDCD  
Indicator lights. No user intervention is required.  
To enjoy the benefits of HDCD, your DVD Player must  
be connected to your A/V receiver via the Analog Audio  
Outputs. However, if your A/V receiver or surround  
processor is equipped with built-in HDCD decoding, you  
may also use a Coaxial or Optical digital audio connec-  
tion so that the HDCD processing is done there.
