ABOUTTHE PBC FUNCTION OFVIDEO CD
This unit can playVideo CD 1.1 (without PBC) and 2.0 (with PBC).
With version 2.0 (with PBC), you can use interactive menu (e.g., playlists) on the TV screen.
When playing aVideo CD with PBC, some operations cannot be performed unless the PBC function is
cancelled temporarily. See page 40 for more details.
Region Codes
DVDs must be labeled for ALL regions or for Region 1 in order to play on this DVD player. You cannot play
DVDs that are labeled for other regions.
Look for the symbols below on your DVDs. If these region symbols do not appear on your DVD, you
cannot play the DVD in this player.
The number inside the globe refers to a region of the world. Region 1 represents the
United States, Canada, upper regions of North America, Bermuda, the U.S.Virgin
Islands, and small regions near Australia.
A disc encoded in a specific region format can only play on DVD players with the same region code. For

8 Hookups
Determining the best possible connection...
Your hookup will be determined primarily by your existing equipment, especially yourTV. These guidelines describe
which options have the best picture and sound quality.You will not use all the jacks on the DVD/VCR.
If yourTV only has an RF-style jack, usually labelled Antenna In, RF In or 75 ohm, use the ANT-OUT jack
of the DVD/VCR to connect to theTV. This hookup provides both audio and video in a single cable. Set
yourTV to channel 3 or 4 - the output channel of the DVD/VCR.This connection allows you to use both
the DVD andVCR features. See page 9.
★★★★ If yourTV has ComponentVideo In jacks (which could be labelledY CR CB,Y PR PB orYUV and may be
green, blue and red), use the ComponentVideo jacks (Y CB/PB CR/PR) for the best picture quality. If you use
only this video connection, only the DVD picture will be available. To see DVD features on theTV, set theTV
to its ComponentVideo In channel. ComponentVideo provides the best picture quality. See page 12.
Progressive Scan provides less flickering and higher image resolution than traditional (525i/480i or interlace)
TV signals.
If yourTV has Progressive Scan (525p/480p or progressive), connect theTV to the DVD/VCR’s
COMPONENTVIDEO OUT (Y CB/PB CR/PR) jacks. Set Progressive Scan (PROG. SCAN) to ON in the
DVD/VCR’s DISPLAY menu. See pages 60-61. P.SCAN will appear on the DVD/VCR’s display panel. Set yourTV to
Progressive Scan also
.
If yourTV does not have Progressive Scan but has ComponentVideo In jacks, connect them to
the DVD/VCR’s COMPONENTVIDEO OUT jacks (Y CB/PB CR/PR). Set Progressive Scan (PROG. SCAN) to
OFF either in the DISPLAY menu or by pressing and holding PLAY B (DVD) on the front of the DVD/VCR
for more than 5 seconds. See pages 60-61.
★★★ If yourTV has an S-Video In jack (which also may be labelledY/C or S-VHS), use the S-VIDEO OUT jack for
excellent picture quality. If you use only this video connection, only the DVD picture will be available. To see
DVD features on theTV, set theTV to its S-Video In channel. See page 12.
★★
If yourTV has a single yellowVideo In jack (which also may be labelled CVBS, Composite or baseband), use
the yellow DVD/VCRVIDEO OUT jack for good picture quality. This connection provides a picture for both
the DVD player and theVCR. To see DVD orVCR features on theTV, set theTV to itsVideo In channel. See
page 10.
★★★★ If you have a Stereo with a Coaxial Digital Audio In jack, this provides the clearest sound for the DVD player.
Connect the DVD/VCR’s COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack to your Stereo for the best sound quality. If
you use only this audio connection, only disc sound (noVCR) will be available. See page 14.
★★★ If digital audio connections are not possible, connect the DVD/VCR’s red and white DVD/VCR AUDIO OUT
jacks to the Audio In jacks of your Stereo orTV. This connection provides sound for both the DVD player
and theVCR. See pages 12-13.
Before you begin...
● Refer to the manuals of yourTV, Cable Box, Stereo or other devices 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 DVD/VCR material playing on theTV, Stereo, etc.
● Disconnect all equipment from the power outlets. Connect the equipment to power only after you have finished
hooking up everything. Never make or change connections with equipment connected to power.
Remember...
● Set theTV to the correctVideo In channel. Such channels may be called AUX or AUXILIARY IN, AUDIO/VIDEO or
A/V IN, EXT1 or External In, etc. These channels often are located near channel zero (0). Or, yourTV’s remote may
have a button or switch that selects theVideo Input channel. See yourTV manual for details. If you do not see the
DVD orVCR playback on theTV, go to the lowestTV channel (01 or 02) and change channels downward until you
see the DVD orVCR picture on theTV. Or, if yourTV has only a single Antenna In jack and you are using the RF
coaxial cable (as described on page 9), set theTV to channel 3 or 4.
To help you find the right Audio/Video In channel, turn on the DVD/VCR. Press DVD to put the DVD/VCR in DVD
mode. With no disc in the player, a large DVDVideo logo will appear on theTV screen when you get theTV on the
correct Audio/Video In channel or channel 3 or 4.
● Set the Stereo to the correct channel or “source” mode.
● Depending on your connection, you may need to purchase additional cables or adaptors. If yourTV or monitor has
BNC-type connectors, you will need an adaptor.
● To use theVCR features, you must include a connection with the supplied yellow video cable and
red/white audio cable or with the supplied RF coaxial cable.
Once you determine the best option, find your choice on pages 9-14. Follow the steps for the hookup

DVD/VCR for 3-5 seconds during tape playback. For more
details, see step 4 on page 9.
Helpful Hint
• If your Cable Box or Satellite
Receiver has Audio andVideo
Out jacks, use audio and video
cables to connect them to the
VCR AUDIO IN andVIDEO IN
jacks on the rear of the
DVD/VCR. You will not need
the RF coaxial cable connection
between the Cable Box/Satellite
Receiver and the DVD/VCR as
described at step 2.
4) Select the channel you want to view/record at the Cable
Box/Satellite Receiver.
●
●
You may not view a channel other than the one you are recording.
You can only program a timer recording for one channel at a time.
Set your Cable Box/Satellite Receiver to the channel you want to
record. When you enter the channel you want to record in a
timer recording, select channel 03 or 04 (the Cable Box/Satellite
Receiver output channel). (This is step 8 on page 28.) Leave the
Cable Box/Satellite Receiver on for a timer recording.
