5.1 Ch a n n e l Su rro u n d Ho o ku p s  
Some DVDs have a sound track with up to 5.1 channels  
recorded in Dolby Digital or DTS format. Using a receiver  
(amplifier) having 5.1 channel inputs and 6 speakers, you  
can enjoy a more realistic audio presence in the comfort of  
your own home.  
Do not connect the pow er cord to a sw itched AC outlet  
such as the AC outlet on a receiver (amplifier). Doing so  
may cause the Playback Memory, Bookmark, Disc Memo  
and menu settings to be cancelled w hen you turn off the  
receiver.  
“5.1 channel” stands for the 2 front speakers (Left and  
Right), 2 rear speakers (Left and Right), 1 center speaker,  
and a subwoofer.  
Even if you have fewer than 6 speakers, the player  
appropriately distributes the output signal to the  
speakers.  
This player also has a VIRTUAL 3D SURROUND mode.  
You can use 3D sound imaging to shift the sound of the  
rear speakers away from the actual speaker position  
(VIRTUAL REAR SHIFT) or to create 3 sets of virtual rear  
speakers from 1 set of actual rear speakers (VIRTUAL  
MULTI REAR, etc.). For details on the VIRTUAL 3D  
SURROUND mode, see page 39.  
Notes  
• Do not connect the power cord to an AC outlet or press the  
POWER switch before completing all connections.  
• Refer to the instructions supplied with the component to be  
connected.  
• The cord connectors should be fully inserted into the jacks. A  
loose connection may cause hum and noise.  
• If you want to connect the component via the DIGITAL OUT

Notes on playing DTS sound tracks on a CD  
• Do not play DTS sound tracks without first connecting the  
player to an audio component having a built-in DTS decoder.  
The player outputs the DTS signal via the DIGITAL OUT  
OPTICAL and COAXIAL connectors even if “DTS” in “AUDIO  
SETUP” is set to “D-PCM” in the setup display, and may affect  
your ears or cause your speakers to be damaged.

the sound to “1/ L” or “2/ R”, no sound will come from the  
DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL and COAXIAL connectors.  
• If you play a CD with a DTS sound track, a loud noise may  
come out from the AUDIO OUT connectors, affecting your ears  
or causing the speakers to be damaged.

Notes  
• The player can store the settings of up to 300 discs. When you  
store the setting of disc number 301, the first disc setting is  
canceled.  
• Depending on the DVD, the information stored in the disc

• OFF: turns off the audio attenuation. Normally select  
this position.  
• Do not turn off the player by pressing !. Doing so may cancel  
the settings. When you turn off the player, press x first to stop  
playback and then press ?/ 1 on the remote. After the power  
indicator lights up in red and the player enters standby mode,  
press ! on the player.  
• ON: reduces the audio output level so that no sound  
distortion occurs. Select this when the playback sound  
from the built-in TV speakers is distorted.

of channels priority when you play a DVD on which  
multiple audio formats (PCM, DTS or Dolby Digital  
format) are recorded.  
• OFF : No priority given.  
• AUTO : Priority given.  
x AUDIO DRC (Dyn a m ic Ra n g e Co n t ro l)  
(DVD o n ly)  
Makes the sound clear when the volume is turned down  
when playing a DVD. This function works only when  
you play a DVD which has the AUDIO DRC function.  
This affects the output from the DIGITAL OUT connectors  
only when “DOLBY DIGITAL” is set to “D-PCM” and  
“DTS” to “D-PCM” in ”DIGITAL OUT.”  
• STANDARD: Normally select this position.  
• TV MODE: makes the low sounds clear even if you turn  
the volume down. It is especially recommended when  
you listen to the sound using the speakers of the TV.  
• WIDE RANGE: It gives you the feeling of being at a live  
performance. This function only works when you are  
playing a Dolby Digital disc and is more effective when  
you connect 6 speakers using the 5.1 channel  
connectors. When you use high quality speakers, it is  
even more effective.  
Notes  
• When you set this item to “AUTO,” the language may change  
depending on the “AUDIO” settings in “LANGUAGE SETUP.”  
The “TRACK SELECTION“ setting has higher priority than the  
“AUDIO” settings in “LANGUAGE SETUP” (page 59).  
• If you set “DTS” in “AUDIO SETUP” to “D-PCM”, the DTS  
sound track is not played even if you set this item to “AUTO”  
and the highest-numbered audio channel is recorded in DTS  
format.  
• If PCM, DTS and Dolby Digital sound tracks have the same  
number of channels, the player selects PCM, DTS and Dolby  
Digital sound tracks in this order.  
• Depending on the DVD, the audio channel with priority may  
be predetermined. In this case, you cannot give priority to the  
DTS or Dolby Digital format by selecting “AUTO.”  
Note  
When you play DVDs without the AUDIO DRC function, there  
may be no effect on the sound.

component having a built-in decoder (Dolby Digital or  
DTS), 3. a DAT or MD via the DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL or  
COAXIAL connector using an optical or coaxial digital

96kHz PCM.“ For details on setting these items, see  
“Setting the Digital Output Signal.”  
• OFF: when the player does not output the sound signals  
via the DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL and COAXIAL  
connectors, the influence of the digital circuit upon the  
analog circuit is at a minimum.  
• DOLBY DIGITAL: when the player is connected to an  
audio component with a built-in Dolby Digital decoder.  
If the player is connected to an audio component  
lacking a built-in Dolby Digital decoder, do not set this.  
Otherwise, when you play the Dolby Digital sound  
track, a loud noise (or no sound) will come out from the  
speakers, affecting your ears or causing the speakers to  
be damaged.

Bit ra t e (p a g e 42)  
DVD (p a g e 4)  
Value indicating the amount of video data compressed in  
a DVD per second. The unit is Mbps (Mega bit per  
second). 1 Mbps indicates that the data per second is  
1,000,000 bits. The higher the bit rate, the larger the  
amount of data. However, this does not always mean that  
you can get higher quality pictures.  
A disc that contains up to 8 hours of moving pictures even  
though its diameter is the same as a CD.  
The data capacity of a single-layer and single-sided DVD  
is 4.7 GB (Giga Byte) which is 7 times that of a CD. The  
data capacity of a dual-layer and single-sided DVD is 8.5  
GB, a single-layer and double-sided DVD is 9.4 GB, and a  
dual-layer and double-sided DVD is 17 GB.  
Ch a p t e r (p a g e 5)  
The picture data uses the MPEG 2 format, one of the  
worldwide standards of digital compression technology.  
The picture data is compressed to about 1/ 40 of its  
original size. The DVD also uses a variable rate coding  
technology that changes the data to be allocated according  
to the status of the picture.  
Sections of a picture or a music piece on a DVD that are  
smaller than titles. A title is composed of several chapters.  
Each chapter is assigned a chapter number enabling you  
to locate the chapter you want.  
Dig it a l Cin e m a So u n d (DCS) (p a g e 39)  
Audio data is recorded in Dolby Digital as well as in  
PCM, allowing you to enjoy a more real audio presence.  
Furthermore, various advanced functions such as the  
multi-angle, multilingual, and Parental Control functions  
are provided with the DVD.  
The general name of technology that Sony developed to  
enjoy surround sound in a home. It simulates the sound  
of a movie editing studio instead of the usual concert hall  
so that you can enjoy the surround sound of a movie  
theater in the comfort of your own home. The VES  
(Virtual Enhanced Surround) system contained in DCS  
programs can create the sound image of virtual rear  
speakers from the sound of the front speakers (L, R)  
without using actual rear speakers.  
Mu lt i-a n g le fu n ct io n (p a g e 38)  
Various angles for the scene (viewpoints of the video  
camera) are recorded on some DVDs.  
Mu lt ilin g u a l fu n ct io n (p a g e s 14, 37, 59)  
Several languages for the audio track or subtitles in a  
picture are recorded on some DVDs.  
Do lb y Dig it a l (p a g e s 11, 66)  
Digital audio compression technology developed by  
Dolby Laboratories. This technology conforms to 5.1-  
channel surround sound. The rear channel is stereo and  
there is a discrete subwoofer channel in this format.  
Dolby Digital provides the same 5.1 discrete channels of  
high quality digital audio found in Dolby Digital cinema  
audio systems. Good channel separation is realized  
because all of the channel data is recorded discretely and  
processed in digital.  
Pa re n t a l Co n t ro l (p a g e 62)  
A function of the DVD used to limit playback of the disc  
according to the age of the user and the limitation level in  
each country. The limitation varies from disc to disc;  
when it is activated, playback is completely prohibited,  
violent scenes are skipped or replaced with other scenes,  
and so on.  
Do lb y Pro Lo g ic (p a g e s 40, 66)  
Pla yb a ck Co n t ro l (PBC) (p a g e 21)  
Audio signal processing technology that Dolby  
Laboratories developed for surround sound. When the  
input signal contains a surround component, the Pro  
Logic process outputs the front, center and rear signals.  
The rear channel is monaural.  
Signals encoded on VIDEO CDs (Version 2.0) to control  
playback.  
By using menus recorded on VIDEO CDs with PBC  
functions, you can enjoy playing simple interactive  
programs, programs with search functions, and so on.  
DTS (p a g e s 11, 67)  
Tit le (p a g e 5)  
Digital audio compression technology that Digital Theater  
Systems, Inc. developed. This technology conforms to 5.1-  
channel surround. The rear channel is stereo and there is  
a discrete subwoofer channel in this format. DTS provides  
the same 5.1 discrete channels of high quality digital  
audio. Good channel separation is realized because all of  
the channel data is recorded discretely and processed in  
digital.  
The longest section of a picture or a music piece on a  
DVD; a movie, etc., for a picture piece on video software;  
or an album, etc., for a music piece on audio software.  
Each title is assigned a title number enabling you to locate  
the title you want.

Glo ssa ry  
Tra ck (p a g e 5)  
Sections of a picture or a music piece on a CD or VIDEO  
CD. Each track is assigned a track number enabling you to  
locate the track you want.  
VIDEO CD (p a g e 4)  
A compact disc that contains moving pictures.  
The picture data uses the MPEG 1 format, one of the  
worldwide standards of digital compression technology.  
The picture data is compressed to about 1/ 140 of its  
original size. Consequently, a 12 cm VIDEO CD can  
contain up to 74 minutes of moving pictures.  
VIDEO CDs also contain compact audio data. Sounds  
outside the range of human hearing are compressed while  
the sounds we can hear are not compressed. VIDEO CDs  
can hold 6 times the audio information of conventional  
audio CDs.  
There are 2 versions of VIDEO CDs.  
Version 1.1: You can play only moving pictures and  
sounds.  
Version 2.0: You can play high-resolution still pictures  
and enjoy PBC functions.  
This player conforms to both versions.
