Notes on discs

About the

Symbol Display

ꢀ

Depending on the conditions of the recording equipment or the CD-R/RW (or

DVD R/RW) disc itself, some CD-R/RW (or DVD R/RW) discs cannot be

played on the unit.

“

” may appear on your TV display during operation and indicate that the

function explained in this owner’s manual is not available on that specific media.

Regional Codes

ꢀ

Do not attach any seal or label to either side (the labeled side or the record-

ed side) of a disc.

This unit has a regional code printed on the rear of the unit. This unit can play

only DVD discs labeled same as the rear of the unit or “ALL”.

Do not use irregularly shaped CDs (e.g., heart-shaped or octagonal). Doing

so may result in malfunctions.

ꢀ

Most DVD discs have a globe with one or more numbers in it clearly visible

on the cover. This number must match your unit’s regional code or the disc

cannot play.

Depending on the recording software & the finalization, some recorded discs

(CD-R/RW or DVD R/RW) may not be playable.

ꢀ

If you try to play a DVD with a different regional code from the unit, the mes-

sage “Incorrect region code. Can’t play back” appears on the TV screen.

DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW and CD-R/RW discs recorded using a personal

computer or a DVD or CD Recorder may not play if the disc is damaged or

dirty, or if there is dirt or condensation on the Unit’s lens.

Remote Control Operation

ꢀ

If you record a disc using a personal computer, even if it is recorded in a

compatible format, there are cases in which it may not play because of the

settings of the application software used to create the disc. (Check with the

software publisher for more detailed information.)

Point the Remote Control at the remote sensor and press the buttons.

Remote Control Battery Installation

Remove the battery cover on the rear of the Remote Control, and insert R03

(size AAA) battery with 3 and # matched correctly.

This unit requires discs and recordings to meet certain technical standards

in order to achieve optimal playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are auto-

matically set to these standards. There are many different types of record-

able disc formats (including CD-R containing MP3 or WMA files) and these

require certain pre-existing conditions (see above) to ensure compatible

playback.

Setting up the remote to control your TV

You can operate your TV with the supplied remote control.

If your TV is listed in the table below, set the appropriate manufacturer code.

While holding down TV POWER button, and press the manufacturer code for

your TV with the numerical buttons (see the table below). Release the TV

POWER button to complete setting.

ꢀ

Customers should note that permission is required in order to download

MP3 / WMA files and music from the Internet. Our company has no right to

grant such permission. Permission should always be sought from the copy-

right owner.

General about connection

Connect one end of the component(Y PB PR) cable to the COMPONENT OUT-

Picture and sound

Connect one end of the audio cables (red and white) to the analog AUDIO

OUTPUT jack on the DVD recorder and other end to the AUDIO INPUT jack on

your TV.

Digital TV is a transmission technology that replaces the traditional analogue

technique.

This means that several TV channels, radio channels and other digital services

can be transmitted on the same space as just one analogue channel.

As a consumer you get access to many more channels and services with

perfect picture and audio quality.

Connecting your recorder is just as simple as connecting an old VCR recorder.

And by using a HDMI cable for connection you get the best picture quality to

your TV-set. The best audio experience can be obtained by connecting an

optical cable to your sound system.

Coverage

Before buying this product it is anticipated that you have made sure that there

are digital transmissions covering your region.

Antenna / Signal source

You may decide to connect your DVD recorder to an indoor arial or an external

arial. Either of the two can give you variances on the signal strength. If you live

in a flat you should make sure that the digital terrestrial signals are distributed to

your wall antenna outlet. If you have your own antenna system you must make

sure that it is equipped with antennas, filter and/or amplifier that can handle

those frequencies that the digital channels are transmitted on.

If your television is a high-definition or “digital ready” television, you may take

advantage of the unit’s progressive scan output for the highest video resolution

possible. If your TV does not accept the Progressive Scan format, the picture

will appear scrambled with the progressive signal.

Set the resolution to 576p using the RES. button on the front panel of the DVD

recorder to obtain the 576p progressive signal.

Cable-TV

Please observe that this recorder is not designed for the reception of regular

digital cable-TV signals (QAM-signal). Despite this, operators of smaller cable

networks may have chosen to distribute the digital terrestrial signals (COFDM-

signal) in the network. In this case this recorder may be used.

DR386M-P.BGBRLLK_ENG 6/13/08 9:59 AM Page 11

S-Video connection

Connect one end of the S-Video cable to the S-VIDEO OUTPUT jack on the

DVD recorder and the other end to the S-Video INPUT jack on your TV.

Connect one end of the audio cable (red and white) to the analog AUDIO OUT-

PUT jack on the DVD recorder and the other ends to the AUDIO INPUT jack on

your TV.

Digital audio connection

Connecting to an amplifier/receiver, Dolby Digital/MPEG/DTS decoder or other

equipment with a digital input.

Connect one end of the digital audio cable (COAXIAL or OPTICAL) to the digital

audio output jack (COAXIAL or OPTICAL) on the DVD recorder and the other

end to the digital audio input jack (COAXIAL or OPTICAL) on your amplifier.

This recorder does not perform internal (2 channel) decoding for a DTS sound

track . To enjoy DTS multi channel surround, you must connect this recorder to

a DTS compatible receiver via one of this recorder’s digital audio output.

DR386M-P.BGBRLLK_ENG 6/13/08 9:59 AM Page 12

ꢀ If your TV is not equipped with a DTS decoder, set the [DTS] options to

[OFF] on the setup menu (See page 19). To enjoy DTS multi channel

surround, you must connect this unit to a DTS compatible receiver via

one of this unit’s digital audio outputs.

HDMI connection

Connect one end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI OUTPUT jack on the DVD

recorder and other end to the HDMI INPUT jack on your TV.

ꢀ If there is noise or lines on the screen, please check the HDMI cable.

ꢀ Changing the resolution when the unit is connected with HDMI connector

may result in malfunctions. To solve the problem, turn off the unit and

then turn it on again.

ꢀ When you connect a HDMI or DVI compatible device make sure of the

following:

Try switching off the HDMI/DVI device and the DVD recorder. Next,

switch on the HDMI/DVI device and leave it for around 30 seconds,

then switch on the DVD recorder.

Recorder

When you use the HDMI connection, you can change the resolution (576i,

576p, 720p,1080i or 1080p) for the HDMI output by pressing RES. button on

the front of the DVD recorder repeatedly.

The connected device’s video input is set correctly for this unit.

The connected device is compatible with 720(1440)x576i, 720x576p,

1280x720p, 1920x1080i or 1920x1080p video input.

About HDMI

ꢀ Not all HDCP-compatible DVI devices will work with this unit.

The picture will not be displayed properly with non-HDCP device.

HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) supports both video and audio on a

single digital connection for use with DVD Players, Set-Top Boxes, and other AV

devices.
