Care and handling of discs  
(For DVD VIDEO)  
How to handle discs  
A DVD VIDEO disc is comprised of titlesand each title  
may be divided into some chapters.For example, if a  
DVD VIDEO disc contains some movies, each movie may  
have its own title number, and each movie may be  
divided into some chapters. In a DVD VIDEO KARAOKE  
disc, each song usually has its own title number and  
does not have chapters.  
When handling a disc, do not touch the surface of the  
disc. Since discs are made of plastic, they are easily  
damaged. If a disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped,  
the images and sound will not be picked up correctly,  
and such a disc may cause the player to malfunction.

location where they may be exposed to direct sunlight,  
or in a place where the humidity or temperature is high.  
Avoid leaving discs in your car!

The unit supports the Progressive scanning system as well as the conventional Interlaced scanning system.  
If your television or monitor equipped with component jacks support the progressive video input, you can enjoy a high  
quality picture by making the Progressive scanning mode active.  
NOTES  
When the scanning mode is set to the Progressive mode, the PROGRESSIVE indicator on the front panel is lit. The color of the  
indicator differs depending on the PROGRESSIVE MODEsetting on the PICTUREpreference display and the status of the  
unit (see pages 8 and 63).  
When connecting to a TV using the VIDEO or S-VIDEO jack, make sure that the PROGRESSIVE indicator on the front panel is  
not lit. If it is lit, the VIDEO and S-VIDEO outputs do not feed the correct signals. To turn off the PROGRESSIVE indicator, make  
the Progressive scanning mode inactive by following the procedure described on page 8.  
When the component video input jacks on the TV is of the BNC type, use an adapter to convert a pin jack to a BNC jack  
(optional).  
Set ANALOG OUTin the AUDIOpreference display to 2-CH STEREO(see page 65).  
If your TV has a monaural audio input instead of stereo, you need to use an optional audio cable which converts stereo audio  
output to monaural.  
To improve audio sound quality, connect the AUDIO OUT jacks to your separate audio equipment (see pages 9, 10).  
If your TV has an AV COMPU LINK terminal, you can use the AV COMPU LINK function. See AV COMPU LINK remote control  
systemon page 75 for details.  
About SCANNING MODE  
To display video on the television (monitor) screen, the conventional scanning method is called Interlaced scanning.”  
With this method, only half of the horizontal lines are displayed at a time. So two fields complete a single picture  
(frame); i.e., the first field, containing all the odd-numbered lines, is displayed followed by the second field, containing  
all the even-numbered lines.  
On the other hand, the Progressive scanning system scans all horizontal lines at a time, so you can double the number  
of pictures compared with the interlaced scanning, resulting in flicker-free, high-density picture.  
To enjoy the progressive scanned video, a monitor (or TV or projector) to be connected to the unit must have the  
Progressive inputs.  
Depending on the material source format, DVD VIDEO discs can be classified into two types; film source and video  
source (note that some DVD VIDEO discs contain both film source and video source). Film sources are recorded as 24-  
frame-per-second information, while (NTSC) video sources are recorded as 30-frame-per-second (60-field-per-second  
interlaced) information.  
When the unit plays back a film source material, uninterlaced progressive output signals are created using the original  
information. When a video source material is played back, the unit interleaves lines between the interlaced lines on  
each to create the interpolated picture and outputs as the progressive signal.

MP3 disc playback  
The unit can play back MP3 files on a private CD-R/RW  
disc or commercial CD. We refer to a disc that contains  
MP3 file as an MP3 discin this manual.  
Though available functions with MP3 discs are limited,  
operations for the available functions are similar to those  
with Audio CD discs.  
Note that, if a disc contains both of MP3 and JPEG files,  
you can only play back files of either type selected by the  
MP3/JPEG setting in the PICTURE preference display  
(see page 64).  
English  
English  
English  
NOTES  
Some discs may not be played back because of the disc  
characteristics or recording condition.  
Some tracks on an MP3 disc are skipped and may not  
be played back normally because of the disc  
configuration or characteristics determined by the  
writing (encoding) software and hardware used for  
recording. Such symptoms may occur regardless of  
whether using a disc you recorded or using a  
commercially available disc.  
The unit does not support packet writingdiscs.  
The unit does not support the ID3 tag.  
What is MP3?  
MP3stands for MPEG Audio Layer-3,and is the  
part of the MPEG standard. It can store high quality  
stereo audio using very little space by only saving the  
audible sounds and discarding the sounds your ears  
wont pick up. A CD can store up to around 10 hours of  
MP3 audio, which is 10 times as much as Audio CD.  
If the disc is recorded with multiple sessions, the unit  
supports up to five sessions.  
You cannot play back Tracks in the desired  
(programmed) or random order.  
The unit only can play back Tracks with any of the  
following file extensions; .MP3, .Mp3, .mp3and  
.mP3.  
NOTE  
Time required for reading the disc contents differs with  
discs, depending on the numbers of Groups (folders)  
and Tracks (files) recorded, etc.  
Make sure that the TV - DVD switch on  
the remote control unit is set to DVD”  
when using the 5//2/3and numeric  
buttons for controlling the unit.

While an MP3 disc is loaded, you cannot bring up any

About MP3 disc  
Operations  
Basic operations  
Available :  
On an MP3 disc, each material (song) is recorded on a  
file. Files are sometimes grouped into a folder by artist,  
album, category, etc. In addition, a folder can be a  
member of another folder, creating hierarchical folder  
layers. If you are familiar with a personal computer, you  
may easily understand the hierarchical file/folder  
construction of MP3 discs.

JPEG disc playback  
The unit can play back JPEG files on a private CD-R/RW  
disc. We refer to a disc that contains JPEG files as a  
JPEG discin this manual.  
Note that, if a disc contains both of MP3 and JPEG files,  
you can only play back files of either type selected by the  
MP3/JPEG setting in the PICTURE preference display  
(See page 64).

NOTES for making a private JPEG disc  
using a CD-R/CD-RW disc:  
Select ISO 9660as the disc format.  
Finalize the disc after completing recording.  
We recommend to record a material at 640 x 480”  
resolution.  
The unit supports only the baseline JPEG type,  
therefore, it cannot display pictures of the other types  
(progressive and lossless). If a JPEG disc contains JPEG  
files of non-baseline type, the unit recognizes those  
files as JPEG files. the JPEG CONTROL display and the  
display window shows the information of the contents  
(file name, file number, etc.), but you cannot show the  
still pictures of those files (the TV screen appears only  
in black).  
What is JPEG?  
JPEGis an abbreviation for the Joint Photographic  
Experts Group and is an image format that utilizes a  
compression technique.  
There are three sub-types of the JPEG format as  
follows.  
baseline JPEG: used for digital cameras, web, etc.  
progressive JPEG: used for web  
lossless JPEG: an old type and rarely used now  
The unit supports only the baseline JPEG type,  
therefore, it cannot display pictures of the other types  
(progressive and lossless). If a JPEG disc contains  
JPEG files of non-baseline type, the unit recognizes  
those files as JPEG files, the JPEG CONTROL display  
and the display window shows the information of the  
contents (file name, file number, etc.), but you cannot  
show the still pictures of those files (the TV screen  
appears only in black and NON PLAYABLE FILEis  
shown in the display window).  
NOTES  
The unit does not support packet writingdiscs.  
If the disc is recorded with multiple sessions, the unit  
supports up to five sessions.  
Some discs may not be played back, or take some times to  
open the whole picture because of the disc characteristics  
or recording condition.  
You cannot play back files in the desired (programmed)  
or random order.  
The screen saver function is activated while same  
picture is displayed for more than 5 minutes except  
during slide show playback (see page 57).  
NOTE  
The unit only can play back files with any of the  
following file extensions; .jpg, .jpeg, .JPG, .JPEG”  
and any uppercase and lowercase combination (such as  
.Jpg).  
Make sure that the TV - DVD switch on  
the remote control unit is set to DVD”  
when using the 5//2/3, numeric  
buttons for controlling the unit.  
TV  
DVD  
If a JPEG file name includes any 2-byte character, the  
unit may not show the file name correctly.  
When a picture resolution is more than 640 x 480, it  
takes some time to open the whole picture.  
About JPEG disc  
On a JPEG disc, each material (still picture) is recorded on a  
file. Files may be grouped into a folder by category, etc. In  
addition, a folder can be a member of another folder,  
creating hierarchical folder layers. If you are familiar with a  
personal computer, you may easily understand the  
hierarchical file/folder construction of JPEG discs.  
This unit simplifies the hierarchical construction of a disc  
and manages folders by Groupsin the following  
manners.  
Carry out an operation after opening the whole  
picture.The unit does not accept any operation  
(Stopping the unit, zooming in/out a picture etc.) while  
opening the picture.  
Time required for reading the disc contents differs with  
discs, depending on the numbers of Groups (folders)  
and files recorded, etc.  
If you play back a non-baseline JPEG file:  
The unit cannot display the still picture of the file. (The  
TV screen appears only in black.) In this case, other  
operations (such as stopping playback, selecting a file,  
etc.) are possible but may take a long time.  
A folder which has one or more files is regarded as a  
Group.  
A foldersfolder which does not manage any file  
directly is ignored.  
While a JPEG disc is loaded, you cannot bring up any  
preference display (see pages 60 and 61).  
The available horizontal resolution of a JPEG file is up to  
2,400 lines.  
Files which do not belong to any folder are grouped  
into Group 1.”  
The unit recognizes up to 150 files per Group, and up  
to 99 Groups per disc. It ignores those exceeding the  
maximum numbers and cannot play back them. If  
there is any type of files other than JPEG files in a  
folder. Those files are also counted down from the  
total number of 150.

Answer  
Ref. page

Can I play back DVD VIDEO and Video CD purchased  
abroad?  
You can play back the DVD VIDEO discs with the Region  
Code (local code) containing ALLor 1recorded in  
the NTSC or PAL system (PAL disc signals are  
reproduced by converting to the NTSC system). You can  
also play back the Video CD discs recorded in the NTSC  
system. Please check the information on each disc jacket.  
Can I play back a DVD VIDEO disc without any Region  
Code number?  
The Region code indicates the conformity of the disc to  
the standards.  
Any DVD VIDEO not conforming to the standards cannot  
be played back.

Can I play back a CD-R/RW disc with still pictures in other  
than the JPEG format?  
No, you cannot play back that disc.  
Can I play back audio on a disc labeled Dolby Digital  
EX?  
Yes, you can play back the disc because Dolby Digital EX  
is compatible with Dolby Digital. However, to get the  
maximum performance of Dolby Digital EX, we  
recommend to connect the DIGITAL OUT jack to a  
decoder or amplifier/receiver with built-in decoder that  
supports Dolby Digital EX. In this case, set DIGITAL  
AUDIO OUTPUTon the AUDIOpreference display to  
STREAM/PCM.”

Can I play back audio on a disc labeled DTS ES?  
Is there any difference in the playback settings between  
Discrete and Matrix recording systems for DTS ES?  
Though you cannot enjoy audio using the analog audio  
outputs (AUDIO OUT), you can enjoy DTS ES audio by  
connecting the DIGITAL OUT jack to a decoder or  
amplifier/receiver with built-in decoder that supports  
DTS ES. In this case, set DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUTon  
the AUDIOpreference display to STREAM/PCM.”  
Can this unit play back a disc labeled THX?  
What does THXmean?  
Yes you can. THXis a name of the original standard for  
high quality picture/audio recording and playback  
established by Lucasfilm Ltd. A disc labeled THXis  
certified that it passed this standard.  
When files of the MP3 and Audio CD formats are  
recorded on a same disc, can the unit play back files of  
both formats?  
The disc is of the data CD format, therefore, the unit can  
play back only files of the MP3 format.  
4, 51  
Some Dolby Digital discs contain 5.1-ch Surround or  
Dolby Surround audio data. What is the difference  
between these two types?  
Both are surround sound standards developed by Dolby  
Laboratories Inc. in the U.S.A.  
Dolby Surround records 2-channel surround audio  
information are recorded onto the analog stereo (left and  
right) channels together with front stereo audio  
information. When played back, the surround signals are  
separated by a Dolby Surround or Dolby Pro Logic  
decoder.  
4
Dolby Digital digitally encodes and records up to six  
channel information for left, right, center, rear left, rear  
right and LFE (Low-Frequency Effect for Sub-woofer etc.).  
When played back, a Dolby Digital decoder decodes data  
and outputs signals separately.  
Generally, Dolby Digital sounds better.  
When playing back a DVD VIDEO or Video CD disc,  
something like mosaic appears on the TV screen. Is this  
because of a malfunction of the unit?  
It is a block noise specific to a motion picture recorded in  
digital, and is not a malfunction of the unit.  
The unit does not function as described in this  
Instruction Manual.  
The operation of this unit may occasionally be  
unacceptable due to the intention of the disc contents  
creator and/or structural restrictions.  
Can I record DVD VIDEO data on a video tape?  
Can this unit record data?  
Most of all DVD VIDEO discs are copy-protected so that  
you cannot record DVD VIDEO data onto any video tape.
