• HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)

HDMI is an interface to enable the digital transmission of video and audio data with just a single connector.

Using HDMI, the DVD player transmits a digital video and audio signal and displays a vivid picture on a TV

having an HDMI input jack.

• HDMI, the HDMI logo and High-Definition Multimedia Interface are trademarks or registered

trademarks of HDMI Licensing LLC.

• HDMI connection description

HDMI connector - Both uncompressed video data and digital audio data (LPCM or Bit Stream data).

- Though the player uses a HDMI cable, the player outputs only a pure digital signal to the TV.

- If TV does not support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital content protection), snow noise appears on the

screen.

• Why does Toshiba use HDMI?

Analog TVs require an analog video/audio signal. However, when playing a DVD, the data transmitted to a

TV is digital. Therefore either a digital-to-analog converter (in the DVD player) or an analog-to-digital

converter (in the TV) is required. During this conversion, the picture quality is degraded due to noise and

signal loss. HDMI technology is superior because it requires no D/A conversion and is a pure digital signal

from the player to your TV.

• What is the HDCP?

HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) is a system for protecting DVD content output via

HDMI from being copied. It provides a secure digital link between a video source (PC, DVD, etc.) and a

display device (TV, Projector, etc.). Content is encrypted at the source device to prevent unauthorized

copies from being made.

Advanced Functions

MP3/WMA file

When you record MP3 or WMA files on CD-R/Memory Card, please refer to the following.

- Your MP3 or WMA files should be ISO 9660 or JOLIET

format.

- Use a sampling rate of at least 32Khz and up to 48Khz.

Conversely, files will not be played properly, and may

be skipped.

ISO 9660 format and Joliet MP3 or WMA files are

compatible with Microsoft's DOS and Windows, and with

Apple's Mac. This format is the most widely used. Memory

Card over 4GB use FAT32, which may not be compatible

with this unit.

- Do not try recording copyright protected MP3 files.

Certain "secured" files are encrypted and code protected to

prevent illegal copying. These files are of the following

types: Windows Media^TM(registered trade mark of Microsoft

Inc) and SDMI^TM(registered trade mark of The SDMI

Foundation). You cannot copy such files.

- When naming your MP3 or WMA files, do not exceed 8

characters, and enter “.mp3, .wma” as the file

extension.

General name format : Title.mp3. or Title.wma. When

composing your title, make sure that you use 8 characters

or less, have no spaces in the name, and avoid the use of

special characters including: (.,/,\,=,+).

- Important:

The above recommendations cannot be taken as a

guarantee that the DVD player will play MP3 recordings, or

as an assurance of sound quality. You should note that

certain technologies and methods for MP3 file recording on

CD-Rs prevent optimal playback of these files on your DVD

player (degraded sound quality and in some cases, inability

of the player to read the files).

- Use a decompression transfer rate of at least 128 Kbps

when recording MP3 files.

Sound quality with MP3 files basically depends on the rate

of compression/decompression you choose. Getting CD

audio sound requires an analog/digital sampling rate, that is

conversion to MP3 format, of at least 128 Kbps and up to

160 Kbps. However, choosing higher rates, like 192

Kbps or more, only rarely give better sound quality.

Conversely, files with decompression rates below 128 Kbps

will not be played properly.

- This unit can play a maximum of 3000 files and 300 folders

per disc.

- This DVD player requires discs/recordings to meet 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/WMA files).

Because this area of technology is still evolving, Toshiba

cannot guarantee that all recordable discs will produce

optimal playback quality. The technical criteria set forth in

this owner's manual are meant only as a guide.

- Use a decompression transfer rate of at least 64Kbps

when recording WMA files.

Sound quality with WMA files basically depends on the rate

of compression/decompression you choose.

Getting CD audio sound requires an analog/digital sampling

rate, that is conversion to WMA format, of at least 64Kbps

and up to 192Kbps.

Conversely, files with decompression rates below 64Kbps

or over 192Kbps will not be played properly.

For example, a cusor is jumping next file, and play a file but

no sound.

- Please be advised that you must obtain permission from

the applicable copyright owners to download copyrighted

content, including music files, in any format, including the

MP3 and WMA formats, prior to the downloading thereof.
