When connecting the cords, be sure to match the color-coded
cord to the appropriate jacks on the components: Red (right) to
Red and White (left) to White. Be sure to make connections firmly
to avoid hum and noise.
Some DVDs have a sound track with up to 5.1 channels
recorded in Dolby Digital or MPEG audio 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.
“5.1 channel” stands for the 2 front speakers (Left and
Right), 2 rear speakers (Left and Right), 1 center speaker,
and a subwoofer.
Do not connect the mains lead to a sw itched mains such
as the mains on a receiver (amplifier). Doing so may cause
the Playback Memory and menu settings to be cancelled
w hen you turn off the receiver.
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 35.
Notes
• Do not connect the mains lead to the mains 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
OPTICAL or COAXIAL connector using an optical or coaxial
digital connecting cord (not supplied), see page 11.
Note
When a DVD has a sound track with 7.1 channels recorded in
MPEG audio format, the output audio signals are mixed down to
5.1 channels.
Se t u p s fo r t h e p la ye r
Some setup adjustments are necessary for the player
depending on the components to be connected.
Use the setup display to change the various settings.
For details on using the setup display, see page 47.
Sp e a ke r p la ce m e n t
For the best possible surround sound, we recommend the
following conditions.

• Use rear and center speakers that match your front
speakers in size and performance.
• To enjoy Dolby Digital surround sound by
connecting the player to a receiver (amplifier) w ith
5.1 channel inputs
Correctly adjust each speaker to your listening position
(page 59).
• Place the subwoofer between the front (L, R) speakers if
possible.

Glo ssa ry
Bit ra t e (p a g e 38)
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 35)
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.
MPEG a u d io (p a g e 12)
International standard coding system used to compress
audio digital signals authorized by ISO/ IEC. MPEG 1
conforms to up to 2-channel stereo. MPEG 2 used on
DVDs conforms to up to 7.1-channel surround.
Do lb y Dig it a l (p a g e s 12, 57)
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.
Mu lt i-a n g le fu n ct io n (p a g e 34)
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 15, 34, 50)
Several languages for the audio track or subtitles in a
picture are recorded on some DVDs.
Pa re n t a l Co n t ro l (p a g e 53)
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 37, 57)
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.
Pla yb a ck Co n t ro l (PBC) (p a g e 22)
DTS (p a g e s 12, 58)
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.
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.
68
Tit le (p a g e 5)
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.
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.
