Before you start

Introduction to home theater

General disc compatibility

You are probably used to using stereo

equipment to listen to music, but may not be

used to home theater systems that give you

many more options (such as surround

sound) when listening to soundtracks.

This player was designed and engineered to

be compatible with software bearing one or

more of the following logos.

DVD-Video

Home theater refers to the use of multiple

audio channels to create a surround sound

effect, making you feel like you're in the

middle of the action or concert. The sur-

round sound you get from a home theater

system depends not only on the speakers

you have set up in your room, but also on the

source and the sound settings of the system.

Audio CD

Video CD

CD-R

CD-RW

Other formats, including but not limited to

the following, are not playable in this player:

• DVD-Audio, SACD, Photo CD, DVD-

RAM, DVD-ROM, CD-ROM*

(*except those that contain MP3 files

formatted as specified in the MP3 audio

compatibility section)

DVD-Video has become the basic source

material for home theater due to its size,

quality, and ease of use. Depending on the

DVD, you can have up to seven different

audio tracks coming from one disc, all of

them being sent to different speakers in your

system. This is what creates a surround

sound effect and gives you the feeling of

‘being there’.

• DVD-R/RW and CD-R/RW discs (Audio

CDs and Video CDs) recorded using a

DVD recorder, CD recorder or personal

computer may not be playable on this

machine. This may be caused by a

number of possibilities, including but

not limited to: the type of disc used; the

type of recording; damage, dirt or

condensation on either the disc or the

player’s pick-up lens.

This receiver will automatically decode Dolby

Digital, DTS or Dolby Surround DVD-Video

discs. In most cases, you won’t have to make

changes for realistic surround sound, but

other possibilities (like listening to a CD with

multi-channel surround sound) are explained

in Playing sources, starting on page 43.

CD-R/RW compatibility

• This unit will play CD-R and CD-RW

discs recorded in CD Audio or Video CD

format, or as a CD-ROM containing MP3

audio files. However, any other content

may cause the disc not to play, or create

noise/distortion in the output.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Before you start

• This unit cannot record CD-R or CD-RW

discs.

MP3 audio compatibility

• This unit will play CD-ROM discs

containing files saved in the MPEG-1

Audio Layer 3 format (MP3) with a

sampling rate of 32, 44.1 or 48kHz.

Incompatible files will not play and

UNPLAYABLE will show in the display.

• Unfinalized CD-R/RW discs recorded as

CD Audio can be played, but the full

Table of Contents (playing time, etc.) will

not be displayed.

• Fixed bit-rate files are recommended.

Variable bit-rate (VBR) files are playable,

but playing time may not be shown

correctly.

DVD-R/RW compatibility

• This unit will play DVD-R/RW discs that

were recorded using the DVD Video

format.

• The CD-ROM used to compile your MP3

files must be ISO 9660 Level 2 compli-

ant.

• This unit will not play DVD-RW discs

that were recorded using the Video

Recording format.

• CD physical format: Mode1, Mode2 XA

Form1.

• This unit cannot record DVD-R/RW

discs.

• This player only plays tracks that are

named with the file extension “.mp3” or

“.MP3”.

• Unfinalized DVD-R/RW discs cannot be

played in this player.

• This player is not compatible with multi-

session discs. If you try and play a multi-

session disc, only the first session will

be played.

PC-created disc compatibility

• If you record a disc using a personal

computer, even if it is recorded in a

compatible format as listed above, there

will be cases in which the disc may not

be playable in this machine due to the

setting of the application software used

to create the disc. In these particular

instances, check with the software

• Use CD-R or CD-RW media for record-

ing your MP3 files. The disc must be

finalized in order to play in this unit.

• This player can recognize a maximum of

250 folders and 250 tracks. Discs

containing more than 250 folders or 250

tracks will play, but only the first 250

folders / tracks.

publisher for more detailed information.

• Check the DVD-R/RW or CD-R/RW

software disc boxes for additional

compatibility information.

• Folder and track names (excluding the

“.mp3” extension) are displayed.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Before you start

• There are many different recording bit-

rates available to encode your MP3 files.

This unit was designed to be compatible

with all of them. Audio encoded at

128Kbps should sound close to regular

CD Audio quality. This player will play

lower bit-rate MP3 tracks, but please

note that the sound quality becomes

noticeably worse at lower bit-rates.

DVD Video regions

All DVD Video discs carry a region mark on

the case somewhere that indicates which

region(s) of the world the disc is compatible

with. Your DVD player also has a region

mark, which you can find on the rear panel.

Discs from incompatible regions will not play

in this player. Discs marked ALL will play in

any player.

The diagram below shows the various DVD

regions of the world.

Titles, chapters and tracks

DVD discs are generally divided into one or

more titles. Titles may be further subdivided

into chapters.

Title 1

Title 2

Title 3

Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 1 Chapter 1 Chapter 2

CDs and Video CDs are divided into tracks.

Track 1 Track 2 Track 3 Track 4 Track 5 Track 6

• I have a widescreen TV so why are there

black bars at the top and bottom of the

screen when I play some discs?

If you’re playing a DVD or Video CD, a menu

may appear. See pages 20–21 for how to

navigate these.

Some movie formats are such that even

when played on a widescreen TV, black

bars are necessary at the top and

bottom of the screen. This is not a

malfunction.

If you’re playing an MP3 disc, it may take a

few seconds before playback starts, depend-

ing on the complexity of the file structure on

the disc.

• I have a standard (4:3) TV and set the

player to show widescreen DVDs in pan &

scan format, so why do I still get black

bars top and bottom with some discs?

• After I load a DVD disc, it ejects automati-

cally after a few seconds!

Some discs override the display

Most likely, the disc is the wrong region

for your player. The region number

should be printed on the disc; check it

against the region number of the player

(which you can find on the rear panel).

See also page 59.

• Why won’t the disc I loaded play?

First check that you loaded the disc the

right way up (label side up), and that it’s

clean and not damaged. See page 59 for

information on cleaning discs.

If a disc loaded correctly won’t play, it’s

probably an incompatible format or disc

type, such as DVD-Audio or DVD-ROM.

See page 6 for more on disc compatibil-

ity.

Introduction

Press DVD SETUP and select ‘Disc

Navigator’ from the on-screen display.

With most of the features described in this

chapter, you can make use of on-screen

displays. For an explanation of how to navigate

these, see Using the on-screen displays on page

17.

Play Mode

Disc Navigator

Many of the functions covered in this chapter

apply to DVD discs, Video CDs, CDs and MP3s,

although the exact operation of some varies

slightly with the kind of disc loaded. With CDs

and MP3 discs, you can use the front panel

display instead of the OSD for many features.

Initial Settings

Select what you want to play.

Depending on the type of disc you have loaded,

the Disc Navigator looks slightly different.

Some DVD discs restrict the use of some

functions (random or repeat, for example). This

is not a malfunction.

The screen for DVD discs shows the titles on

the left and the chapters on the right. Select a

title, or a chapter within a title.

When playing Video CDs, some of the functions

are not available during PBC playback. If you

want to use them, start the disc playing using a

number button to select a track.

Radio Data System, or RDS as it’s usually

known, is a system used by FM radio stations

to provide listeners with various kinds of

information—the name of the station and

the kind of show they’re broadcasting, for

example. This information shows up as text

on the display, and you can switch between

the kind of information shown. Although you

don’t get RDS information from all FM radio

stations, you do with most.

Travel

Leisure interests and

hobbies

Probably the best feature of RDS is that you

can search automatically by type of program.

So, if you felt like listening to jazz, you could

search for a station that’s broadcasting a

show with the program type, JAZZ. There are

around 30 such program types, including

various genres of music, news, sport, talk

shows, financial information, and so on.

WEATHER

This system lets you display three different

kinds of RDS information: Radio Text,

Program Service Name, and Program Type.

LEISURE

Radio Text (RT) is messages sent by the radio

station. These can be anything the broad-

caster chooses—a talk radio station might

give out it telephone number as RT, for

example.

Program Type (PTY) indicates the kind of

program currently being broadcast.

This unit can search for and display the

following program types:

In addition, there is a program type,

ALARM!, used for exceptional emergency

announcements. You can’t search for this,

but the tuner will switch automatically to this

RDS broadcast signal.

The system starts searching through the

Pro Logic II Movie

Using the multi-channel

sound modes

This mode gives 5.1 channel surround

sound. It is suitable for movies, especially

those recorded in Dolby Surround. The

channel separation and movement of

surround effects is comparable to Dolby

Digital 5.1.

There are three basic multi-channel sound

modes: Auto, Surround and Advanced

Surround. The Stereo mode (available in all

three modes) bypasses the multi-channel

sound modes and downmixes multi-channel

sources to your two-front speakers.

Pro Logic II Music

This mode gives 5.1 channel surround sound

and is suitable for music. Compared to Pro

Logic II Movie, the surround effect is more

enveloping.

Auto

The AUTO mode automatically decodes

Dolby Digital, DTS or Dolby Surround

sources. You can identify Dolby Digital

software by the 1 or

marks.

Advanced Surround modes

These are designed to be used with multi

channel surround sound audio/visual

sources (like DVDs and LDs). Most Advanced

Surround modes are designed to be used

with film soundtracks, but some modes are

also suited for music sources. Try different

settings with various soundtracks to see

which you like.

Most Dolby Surround software is marked

3, but unmarked software may also

incorporate Dolby Surround.

Surround modes

The surround mode options (below) can add

surround sound to regular stereo sources.

Choose one of the following to add depth to

a 2 channel source:

Advanced Music

Simulates the acoustic environment of a

large concert hall and is suitable for music

Pro Logic

This mode gives 4.1 channel surround

Virtual Surround Back

Phones Surround

The Virtual Surround Back effect simulates

6.1 surround channel listening, giving the

impression that there is a surround back

speaker in your system when listening to a

5.1 channel source.

This is very similar to the Virtual Surround

mode, and is available when you’re listening

to the headphones to create an overall

surround sound effect.

Stereo

Expanded

When you select STEREO (available in both

the Surround and Advanced surround

modes), you will hear the source through

just the front left and right speakers. Dolby

Digital and DTS multi-channel sources are

downmixed to stereo.

This mode is especially designed to give

sound depth to stereo sources. The overall

effect builds a dynamic and broad sound

space, allowing two-channel (stereo) signals

to imitate a five speaker sound. Use with

Dolby Pro Logic for a stereo surround effect.

You can also use with Dolby Digital sources

for a wider stereo field than the Surround

modes.

The audio plays according to the surround

setup settings and you can still use the tone

control (SOUND MODE) functions.

TV Surround

You can use this mode to give surround

Additional information

Using discs with this unit

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 sunlight).

Handling discs

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.

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.

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.

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.

For more detailed care information see the

instructions that come with discs.

Do not load more than one disc into the player

at a time.

Discs to avoid

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.

Wipe lightly from the center of the disc

using straight strokes.

Don’t wipe the disc surface using

circular 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.

This unit is designed for use with conventional,

fully circular discs only. Use of shaped discs is

not recommended for this product. Pioneer

disclaims all liability arising in connection with

the use of shaped discs.

Cleaning the pickup lens

Proper installation and

maintenance of this unit

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 Pioneer authorized service center.

Although lens cleaners for CD players are

commercially available, we do not recommend

using them since some may damage the lens.

Hints on installation

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:

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 perform-

ance. For this reason you should leave it to

adjust to the warmer temperature for about an

hour before switching on and using.

ꢀ Use in a well-ventilated room.

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

a table, shelf or stereo rack.

Don’t...

✗ Use in a place exposed to high tempera-

tures 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.

Moving the unit

✗ Use in an excessively dusty or damp

environment.

If you need to move the unit, first press

STANDBY/ON on the front panel to turn the

player off. Wait for GOOD BYE to disappear

from the display, then unplug the power cord.

Never lift or move the unit during playback—

discs rotate at a high speed and may be

damaged.

✗ 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.

• Unplugging the unit before GOOD BYE

completely disappears from the display

may cause the system to return to the

factory settings.

✗ 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.

of the picture depending on the TV. This is not a malfunction.

• Discs respond differently to particular player functions. This

may result in the screen becoming black for a brief instant or

shaking slightly when the function is executed. These problems

are largely due to differences between discs and disc content

and are not malfunctions of this player.

Tuner

Problem

Remedy

Considerable noise in radio

broadcasts.

• Tune into the correct frequency.

• Connect the antenna (refer to the Setup Guide).

• Fully extend the FM wire antenna, position for best reception,

and secure to a wall.

• Connect an outdoor FM antenna (page 61).

• Adjust the direction and position for best reception.

• Connect an additional internal or external AM antenna (refer

to the Setup Guide, page 61).

• Turn off any other equipment that may be causing the noise or

move it away from the unit.

• The tuning interval is incorrect for your country or region. Try

switching the tuning interval (frequency step) (page 57).

Auto tuning does not pick up

some stations.

• The radio signal is weak. Auto tuning will only detect radio

stations with a good signal. For more sensitive tuning, connect

an outdoor antenna.

Sound is mono only.

• Check that the tuner is not set to FM mono (page 35).

Additional information

Set to 4:3 (Pan&Scan), widescreen discs are

shown with the left and right sides cropped.

Although the picture looks larger, you don’t

actually see the whole picture.

Screen sizes and disc formats

DVD-Video discs come in several different

screen aspects, ranging from TV programs,

which are generally 4:3, to CinemaScope

widescreen movies, with an aspect ratio of

up to about 7:3.

Televisions also come in different aspect

ratios; ‘standard’ 4:3 and widescreen 16:9.

Widescreen TV users

If you have a widescreen TV, the TV Screen

setting (page 51) of this player should be set

to 16:9 (Wide).

Please note that many widescreen discs

override the player’s settings so that the disc

is shown in letterbox format regardless of the

setting.

When you watch discs recorded in 4:3

format, you can use the TV controls to select

how the picture is presented. Your TV may

offer various zoom and stretch options; see

the instructions that came with your TV for

details.

• Using the 16:9 (Wide) setting with a

standard 4:3 TV, or either of the 4:3

settings with a widescreen TV, will result

in a distorted picture.

Please note that some movie aspect ratios

are wider than 16:9, so even though you have

a widescreen TV, these discs will still play in

a ‘letterbox’ style with black bars at the top

and bottom of the screen.

Standard TV users

If you have a standard TV, the TV Screen

setting (page 52) of this player should be set

to 4:3 (Letter Box) or 4:3 (Pan&Scan),

depending on which you prefer.

Set to 4:3 (Letter Box), widescreen discs are

shown with black bars top and bottom.

Glossary

Dynamic range

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.

File extension

Aspect ratio

A tag added to the end of a filename to

indicate the type of file. For example, “.mp3”

indicates an MP3 file.

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).

MP3

MP3 (MPEG1 audio layer 3) is a compressed

audio file format. Files are recognized by

their file extension “.mp3” or “.MP3”.

Digital audio

An indirect representation of sound by

numbers. During recording, the sound is

measured at discrete intervals (44,100 times

a second for CD audio) by an analog-to-

digital converter, generating a stream of

numbers. On playback, a digital-to-analog

converter generates an analog signal based

on these numbers. See also Sampling

frequency and Analog audio.

MPEG audio

An audio format used on Video CDs and

some DVD discs. This unit can convert

MPEG audio to PCM format for wider

compatibility with digital recorders and AV

amplifiers. See also PCM.

MPEG video

The video format used for Video CDs and

DVDs. Video CD uses the older MPEG-1

standard, while DVD uses the newer and

much better quality MPEG-2 standard.

Dolby Digital

Using a maximum of 5.1 channels of audio,

this high quality surround system is used in

many of the finer movie theaters around the

world.

PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)

The most common system of encoding

digital audio, found on CDs and DAT.

Excellent quality, but requires a lot of data

compared to formats such as Dolby Digital

and MPEG audio. See also Digital audio.

DTS

PBC (PlayBack Control) (Video CD only)

A system of navigating a Video CD through

on-screen menus recorded onto the disc.

Especially good for discs that you would

normally not watch from beginning to end all

at once—karaoke discs, for example.

DTS stands for Digital Theater System. DTS

is a surround system different from Dolby

Digital that has become a popular surround

sound format for movies.

Additional information

Regions (DVD-Video only)

These associate discs and players with

particular areas of the world. This unit will

only play discs that have compatible region

codes. You can find the region code of your

unit by looking on the rear panel. Some discs

are compatible with more than one region

(or all regions).

Sampling frequency

The rate at which sound is measured to be

turned into digital audio data. The higher the

rate, the better the sound quality, but the

more digital information is generated.

Standard CD audio has a sampling fre-

quency of 44.1kHz, which means 44,100

samples (measurements) per second. See

also Digital audio.

Power cord caution

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 Pioneer

authorized service center or your dealer for a

replacement.
