º Upgrading your television  
³You can connect CRT projectors, LCD projectors, and projection televisions.  
³See “Connection to a television” (á pages 12 and 13) for details on connection.  
Note  
³The equipment connections described are examples.  
³Peripheral equipment and optional cables sold separately unless otherwise indicated.  
º Before connections  
³Ensure that this player and other equipment to be connected are switched to the standby mode or off and disconnect the AC power supply cord  
before commencing connection.  
³Do not block ventilation holes of any of the equipment and arrange them so that air can circulate freely.  
³Read through the instructions before connecting other equipment.  
³Ensure that you observe the color coding when connecting audio and video cables.  
Note  
³TV volume may be lower when playing DVDs than during television broadcasts. Turn the volume up while playing DVDs and reduce it to the  
previous level before switching the source back to television to avoid sudden changes in volume.  
³When you have finished connection, select the appropriate screen type at the initial setting “6 TV Aspect” according to your television (4:3/16:9)  
(á page 31). No changes are needed if you connect the player to a conventional television (4:3).  
Conserving power  
³The unit consumes approx. 2.0 W even when it is turned off with [STANDBY/ON]. To save power when the unit is not to be used for a long time,  
unplug it from the household AC outlet.

³Underlined items are factory preset.  
¤1 Select “No” if the digital audio input terminal of your audio equipment (AV amplifier, etc.) can handle 96 kHz/24 bit signal. If it is not acceptable  
for 96 kHz/24 bit digital audio signal, or the 96 kHz linear PCM disc you want to play is copyright-protected, it is recommended to set “1 No” and  
make analog connection to enjoy high quality sound (If it is set to “Yes”, the player converts linear PCM to 48 kHz even during analog output).  
¤2 When connecting an amplifier (with an optical digital input terminal) which does not contain a Dolby Digital or DTS Digital Surround decoder, be  
sure to select “PCM” at “2 Dolby Digital” and “Off” at “3 DTS Digital Surround”. If “Bitstream” is selected, any attempt to play DVDs (or CDs  
encoded with DTS) may cause a high level of noise that can injure your ears and damage your speakers.  
For your reference  
³Dolby Digital is a digital sound compression technique developed by Dolby Laboratories.  
Supporting 5.1-channel surround sound, as well as stereo (2-channel) sound, this technique enables a large quantity of sound data to be efficient-  
ly recorded on a disc.  
³DTS Digital Surround is a 5.1-channel surround sound system, which is widely used in movie theaters around the world. The separation between  
channels is good and provides a very real surround effect.  
³Linear PCM is an uncompressed digital audio signal. While a CD is recorded in 44.1 kHz/16 bit, a DVD is recorded in 48 kHz/16 bit up to 96 kHz/  
24 bit. Therefore, the sound reproduced with these signals is potentially better than that found on CDs. This player reproduces linear PCM in two  
channels.  
³Bitstream is a compressed digital audio signal. This signal can be decoded into different channels to produce, for instance, 5.1-channel surround  
sound.  
³The digital audio output terminal (optical) converts electrical signals into optical signals and transfers them to an amplifier. These optical signals  
are immune from electrical interference, and they also have minimal effect on other equipment.  
³These changes to digital audio output must be made, otherwise bitstream signals the decoder cannot handle will be output. If these  
signals are output, “noise” will be output which can cause harm to your ears and speakers.  
Note  
³You cannot use DTS Digital Surround decoders not suited to DVD.

For your reference  
³I/P/B  
To efficiently store video on DVD, common elements among frames are used in common, and different elements are recorded with each individual  
frame. The frame that contains the common elements is called an I-picture, a complete frame in itself. A P-picture is calculated from past I or  
P-pictures. The frame that fills in the spaces between the I-and P-pictures is called the B-picture.  
I-pictures have the best picture quality, so they should be used when making picture adjustments.  
³Frame  
Individual images in a video or on the television are called frames.  
³Field  
Half of the video information (video signal) in a frame is called a field. With conventional TV systems, a single frame (a single screen) consists of  
two fields.  
³Frame still  
The two fields are displayed alternately on the TV screen, so the image may be blurry. However, the image quality is better than field images.  
³Field still  
Only one field (half of the video information) is displayed on the TV screen, so the apparent resolution is low. However, there is no blurring on the  
screen.  
How different kinds of software appear on your television  
DVD software is recorded in a variety of picture formats, and how they appear on your TV depends on the software, the kind of TV you have, and the  
picture mode your TV is set to.  
³Letterbox refers to pictures where black bands appear at the top and bottom.  
³Pan and scan refers to pictures where part of the picture is cut off so it fills the whole screen.
