cleaning CD/DVD to clean the lens. Other cleaning methods may

destroy the lens.Always keep the tray closed to avoid dust on the lens.

● The lens may cloud over if you suddenly move the Player from cold to

warm surroundings. Playing a Disc is not possible then. Leave the power

on for about one hour with no Disc in the unit until playback is possible.

8 Hookups

Determining the best possible connection...

Your existing equipment, especially your TV, will determine your connection possibilities. However, the

following guidelines describe which options provide the best picture and sound quality.

HHHH

HHH

ComponentVideo provides the best picture quality. Details are on page 12.

S-Video provides excellent picture quality. Details are on page 11.

CompositeVideo (a yellowVideo jack) provides good picture quality.

Details are on page 10.

YourTV may have only an RF-style jack, usually labeled Antenna In or 75 ohm

or RF In.You will need an RF modulator in order to view the Player’s materials

at yourTV. See your electronics retailer or contact Philips for details on RF

modulator availability and operations. Details are on page 9.

Digital audio connections provide the clearest sound, but you must have a digital Stereo.

Connect the COAXIAL Digital Audio Output jack of the Player to your Stereo’s Coaxial

Digital Audio In jack for the best sound quality.

HHHH

HHH

Details are on page 14.

If digital connections or multichannel connections are not possible, connect the Player’s L

(left, white) and R (right, red) jacks to the left and right Audio In jacks of your Stereo or

TV. Details are on pages 9-13.

If your TV has a single Audio In jack instead of separate left/right Audio In jacks, you will

need a different audio cable than the one supplied.You need a “splitter” audio cable to go

from the L (left, white) and R (right, red) jacks of the Player to the single Audio In jack on

your TV. See an electronics retailer or contact Philips for details.

Before you begin...

●

Refer to the manuals of your TV, Stereo, or other equipment as necessary. Note the style of jacks

and connectors on the other equipment. Determine how to choose different Audio andVideo In

channels on your other equipment so you can see and hear the Player’s materials on the TV,

Stereo, etc. Some equipment may let you choose the channels using a remote control or by

adjusting a TV/VIDEO/AUXILIARY/SOURCE switch.

Disconnect all equipment from the power outlets. Connect the equipment to the power outlets

only after you have finished hooking up everything. Never make or change connections with

equipment connected to the power outlet.

●

Remember...

●

Connect the Player directly to the TV. For example, do not connect the Player to aVCR, then

connect theVCR to a TV.This type of connection may distort the picture and sound.Also, your

VCR may have a copy protection system that may distort the picture or prevent playback of some

Discs.

Set the TV to the correctVideo In channel. Such channels may be called AUX or AUXILIARY IN,

AUDIO/VIDEO or A/V IN, EXT1 or EXT2 or External In, etc.These channels are often near

channel 00.Your TV or its remote control may have aVideo or Auxiliary switch/button that allows

you to choose the correctVideo In channel. See your TV manual for details. Or, change TV channels

until you see the Player’s blue background screen on the TV.

●

Set the Stereo or Receiver to the correct channel or “source” mode.

Do not connect any of the Player’s Audio Out jacks (L, R, etc.) to the PHONO IN jack of your

Stereo.

●

You only need one audio connection and one video connection between the Player and your TV

and/or Stereo. So, you will not use all the jacks on the Player.

Set TV OUTPUT (page 31),VIDEO OUTPUT (page 34), and DIGITAL OUTPUT (page 36)

accordingly.

Once you determine the best option, find your choice on pages 9-14. Follow the

steps for the hookup you choose.

MP3 Play 29

MP3 is a compression method that makes digital music files up to 10

times smaller without losing significant sound quality. MP3 is common on

the Internet, letting you transfer Tracks to your computer and onto a CD

Recordable or CD Rewritable disc. Materials and equipment with which

to make MP3 recordings are not supplied with this Player.

MP3 Tracks are recorded at a certain bit rate or speed. Slower bit rates

(32 kbps or 64 kbps) let you record more using less Disc space, but have

the lowest sound quality. Faster bit rates (256 kbps or 320 kbps) provide

better sound quality but use a lot of Disc space.The average bit rates (96

kbps or 128 kbps) provide CD-like quality and are most recommended.

Keep these characteristics in mind when making Discs that you intend to

play on this Player.

Glossary 43

Analog: Sound that has not been turned into numbers.Analog sound varies, while digital sound has

specific numerical values.Analog sound is available when you use the red and white, left and right audio

jacks on your equipment.These jacks send audio through two channels, the left and right.

Bit Rate: The amount of data used to hold a given length of music; measured in kilobits per seconds,

or kbps. Or, the speed at which you record. Generally, the higher the bit rate, or the higher the

recording speed, the better the sound quality. However, higher bit rates use more space on a disc.

For example, an MP3 music file recorded at 32 kbps will record slowly, use the least Disc space, and

have the poorest sound quality. But, an MP3 music file recorded at 96 kbps will record quicker, use

more Disc space, and have significantly better sound quality.

CD: Compact Disc (audio).

COAXIAL (DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT) jack: Sends digital audio to a Stereo, allowing you to

adjust the volume at the Stereo.The Stereo must have a Coaxial In jack.This connection provides the

5.1 channel surround sound as heard in movie theaters.

ComponentVideo: Use theY Pb/Cb Pr/Cr jacks on the rear of the Player to send high-quality video

to a TV that has ComponentVideo In jacks.

Digital: Sound that has been converted into numerical values. Digital sound is available when you use

the COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT jacks.This jack sends audio through multiple channels,

instead of just two channels as analog does.

Direct Stream Digital (DSD): New technology used to record Super Audio CDs. DSD uses a 1-bit

system with a digital sampling frequency 64 times higher than a regular Audio CD, resulting in a

frequency response of over 50 kHz and a 120 dB dynamic range.

Dolby Digital: A surround sound system that provides 5.1 channel sound as used in movie theaters.

DTS: Digital Theater Systems.This is a surround sound system, but it is different from Dolby Digital.

The formats were developed by different companies.

DVD: DigitalVideo Disc.

Letterbox: A TV SCREEN setting (4:3 aspect ratio). Displays the video in full-width, with black bars at

the top and bottom of the TV screen.This format is similar to seeing a movie in a theater. If the Disc

does not include a Letterbox format, selecting Letterbox for TV SCREEN may have no effect. (For

example, some DVDs are two-sided, with one side playing in Letterbox and the other side playing in a

normal format.) DVDs may refer to Letterbox as the Widescreen format.

Multichannel sound: Available when you connect the Player to a six-channel Receiver.The Receiver

sends sound to six speakers: front left and right, rear or surround left and right, center, and subwoofer.

Pan Scan: A TV SCREEN setting (4:3 aspect ratio). Displays the video with full-height picture, with

one or both sides of the picture trimmed. Some movie companies refer to this as “reformatting the

picture to fit your TV screen.”

Super Audio Compact Disc (SACD): There are three types of Super Audio CDs: single-layer, dual-

layer, and hybrid. Each may contain two areas of recorded audio: High Quality (HQ) Stereo and High

Quality (HQ) Multi-channel.

Hybrid SACDs may contain both HQ Stereo and HQ Multi-channel, plus a standard CD layer, making it

playable on standard CD players. Check the SACD case to determine what type of SACD you have.

This Player will play only the CD layer (if it is available on the SACD).

S-Video: Produces a clearer picture by sending separate signals for the luminance and the color. If you

connect an S-Video cable, you will not need to use the supplied yellow video cable.You can use S-Video

only if your TV has an S-Video In jack.

VIDEO Jack: Yellow jack on the rear of the Player that sends video to a TV.

Widescreen: A TV SCREEN setting (16:9 aspect ratio). Displays the video appropriately when you

connect the Player to a widescreen TV.
