Precautions

1. Recording Copyright—Unless it’s for personal use

only, recording copyrighted material is illegal with-

out the permission of the copyright holder.

• Install this unit horizontally. Never use it on its

side or on a sloping surface, because it may cause

a malfunction.

• If you install this unit near a TV, radio, or VCR,

the picture and sound quality may be affected. If

this occurs, move this unit away from the TV,

radio, or VCR.

2. AC Fuse—The AC fuse inside the unit is not user-

serviceable. If you cannot turn on the unit, contact

your Onkyo dealer.

3. Care—Occasionally you should dust the unit all

over with a soft cloth. For stubborn stains, use a soft

cloth dampened with a weak solution of mild deter-

gent and water. Dry the unit immediately afterwards

with a clean cloth. Don’t use abrasive cloths, thin-

ners, alcohol, or other chemical solvents, because

they may damage the finish or remove the panel let-

tering.

8. To Obtain a Clear Picture—This unit is a high-

tech, precision device. If the lens on the optical

pickup, or the disc drive mechanism becomes dirty

or worn, the picture quality may be affected. To

maintain the best picture quality, we recommend

regular inspection and maintenance (cleaning or

worn part replacement) every 1,000 hours of use

depending on the operating environment. Contact

your Onkyo dealer for details.

WARNING

9. Moisture Condensation

BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE

FIRST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SEC-

TION CAREFULLY.

Moisture condensation may damage this unit.

Read the following carefully:

AC outlet voltages vary from country to country.

Make sure that the voltage in your area meets the

voltage requirements printed on the unit’s rear panel

(e.g., AC 230 V, 50 Hz or AC 120 V, 60 Hz).

Moisture may condense on the lens of the optical

pickup, one of the most important parts inside this

unit.

• Moisture condensation can occur in the following

situations:

The power cord plug is used to disconnect this unit

from the AC power source. Make sure that the plug

is readily operable (easily accessible) at all times.

– The unit is moved from a cold place to a warm

place.

– A heater is turned on, or cold air from an air

conditioner is hitting the unit.

– In the summer, when this unit is moved from

an air conditioned room to a hot and humid

place.

– The unit is used in a humid place.

• Do not use this unit when there’s the possibility

of moisture condensation occurring. Doing so

may damage your discs and certain parts inside

this unit.

If condensation does occur, remove all discs and

leave this unit turned on for two to three hours. By

this time, the unit will have warmed up and any con-

densation will have evaporated.

5. Never Touch this Unit with Wet Hands—Never

handle this unit or its power cord while your hands

are wet or damp. If water or any other liquid gets

inside this unit, have it checked by your Onkyo

dealer.

6. Handling Notes

• If you need to transport this unit, use the original

packaging to pack it how it was when you origi-

nally bought it.

• Do not leave rubber or plastic items on this unit

for a long time, because they may leave marks on

the case.

• This unit’s top and rear panels may get warm

after prolonged use. This is normal.

• If you do not use this unit for a long time, it may

not work properly the next time you turn it on, so

be sure to use it occasionally.

10. Region Numbers—The DVD standard uses region

numbers to control how discs can be played around

the world, the world being divided into six regions.

This unit will only play DVD discs that match its

region number, which can be found on its rear panel

• When you’ve finished using this unit, remove all

discs and turn off the power.

11. About this Manual—This manual explains how to

use all of this unit’s functions. Although the DVD

standard offers many special features, not all discs

use them all, so depending on the disc being played,

this unit may not respond to certain functions. See

the disc’s sleeve notes for supported features.

• Install this unit in a well-ventilated location.

• Ensure that there’s adequate ventilation all

around this unit, especially if it’s installed in an

audio rack. If the ventilation is inadequate, the

unit may overheat, leading to malfunction.

• Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or heat

sources, because its internal temperature may

rise, shortening the life of the optical pickup.

• Avoid damp and dusty places, and places subject

to vibrations from loudspeakers. Never put the

unit on top of, or directly above a loudspeaker.

Important:

Notes:

• This player is equipped with copy protection technol-

ogy. Do not connect this player to your TV via a VCR

using AV cables, as the picture from this player will

not appear properly on your TV. (This player may also

not be compatible with some combination TV/VCRs

for the same reason; refer to the manufacturer for

more information.)

• When connecting to your TV as shown above, do not

set the “Component Out” setting (page 42) to “Pro-

gressive”.

• Before unplugging the player from the power outlet,

make sure you first switch it into standby using either

the front panel STANDBY/ON button, or the remote

controller, and wait of the “OFF” message to disap-

pear from the player’s display.

• For the above reasons, do not plug this player into a

switched power supply found on some amplifiers and

AV receivers.

1. Connect the VIDEO OUTPUT and ANALOG

AUDIO OUTPUT L/R jacks to a set of A/V inputs

on your TV.

Use the supplied AV cable (RCA), connecting the

red and white plugs to the audio outputs and the yel-

low plug to the video output. Make sure you match

up the left and right audio outputs with their corre-

sponding inputs for correct stereo sound.

See page 19 if you want to use a component or

SCART cable for the video connection.

2. Connect the supplied AC power cord to the AC

INLET, then plug into a power outlet.

Note:

• If you connect a TV that is not compatible with a pro-

gressive scan signal and switch the player to progres-

sive, you will not be able to see any picture at all.

Compatibility of this player with

progressive-scan and high-definition TVs

This player is compatible with progressive video Macro

Vision System Copy Guard.

Consumers should note that not all high-definition tele-

vision sets are fully compatible with this product and

may cause artifacts to be displayed in the picture. In case

of 525 progressive scan picture problems, it is recom-

mended that the user switch the connection to the “stan-

dard definition” output (Interlace). If there are questions

regarding our TV set compatibility with this model,

please contact our customer service center.

Connecting the DV-SP305—Continued

Using SCART

Connecting Your TV

If your TV has a SCART-type AV input, you can use a

SCART cable to connect this player to your TV. This

type of connection carries both the sound and the picture,

so there’s no need to connect up the AUDIO OUTPUT

L/R and VIDEO OUTPUT jacks.

• Connect the DVD Player to the TV directly. If you

connect the DVD Player to a VCR, TV/VCR combi-

nation, or video selector, the playback picture may be

distorted as DVD videos are copy protected.

• Use a SCART cable (not supplied) to connect the AV

CONNECTOR to an AV input on your TV.

Using Component Video

You can use the component video output instead of the

standard video out jack to connect this player to your TV

(or other equipment).

• Use a component video cable (not supplied) to con-

nect the COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT jacks to a

component video input on your TV, monitor or AV

receiver.

2. Connect the ANALOG AUDIO OUTPUT L/R

and VIDEO OUTPUT jacks on this player to a set

of analog audio and video inputs on your AV

receiver.

Connecting to an AV Receiver

Although you can reproduce the DVD Player’s sound

from the TV speakers with the connections on page 17,

connecting with an amplifier provides you high quality

dynamic sounds.

AV receiver

To reproduce Dolby Digital surround and DTS surround

sound, you need to connect to an amplifier with a Dolby

Digital and DTS decoder respectively.

Before connecting

DVD

• When you connect the DVD Player to the amplifier, be

sure to turn off the power and unplug both units from

the mains before making any connections. Otherwise,

the speakers may be damaged.

^FRONTL

• Connect the plugs securely.

To enjoy surround sound you need to connect this player

to an AV receiver using a digital output.

In addition to a digital connection, we recommend also

connecting using the stereo analog connection.

To record the audio from a CD-R disc etc. to a cassette

or CDR recorder that’s connected to the AV receiver, and

when your AV receiver has Zone2, you must connect the

DV-SP305’s analog audio outputs to the AV receiver.

You’ll probably also want to connect a video output to

your AV receiver. You can use any of the video outputs

available on this player (the illustration shows a standard

(composite) connection).

Supplied

AV cable

The diagram shows standard video connections, but you

can alternatively use the component video connections if

it’s available.

3. Connect the AV receiver’s video output to a video

input on your TV.

1. Connect the DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT jack on

this player to a digital input on your AV receiver.

Tip:

• You usually have to connect the same kind of video

cable between your DVD player and AV receiver, and

between your AV receiver and TV.

COAXIAL

AV receiver

This enables you to listen to surround sound.

For a coaxial connection, use a coaxial cable (supplied)

to connect the “COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT-

PUT” jack to a coaxial input on your AV receiver.

Connecting the Power/Turning on the DV-SP305

Before connecting

• Make sure that all the connections on pages 16–20 are

complete (the connection to a TV is required).

Plug the supplied power cord into

the AC INLET and then into the

power outlet on the wall.

• Do not use a power cord other than the

one supplied with the DV-SP305. The

power cord supplied is designed for

use with the DV-SP305 and should not

be used with any other device.

STANDBY/ON

• Never have the power cord discon-

nected from the DV-SP305 while the

other end is plugged into the wall out-

let. Doing so may cause an electric

shock. Always connect by plugging

into the wall outlet last and disconnect

by unplugging from the wall outlet

first.

About DivX^®VOD content

Playing DivX^®VOD content

In order to play DivX VOD (video on demand) content

on this player, you first need to register the player with

your DivX VOD content provider. You do this by gener-

ating a DivX VOD registration code, which you submit

to your provider.

Some DivX VOD content may only be playable a fixed

number of times. When you load a disc containing this

type of DivX VOD content, the remaining number of

plays is shown on-screen and you then have the option of

playing the disc (thereby using up one of the remaining

plays), or stopping. If you load a disc that contains

expired DivX VOD content (for example, content that

has zero remaining plays), the message “Rental Expired”

is displayed.

Important:

• DivX VOD content is protected by a DRM (Digital

Rights Management) system. This restricts playback

of content to specific, registered devices.

If your DivX VOD content allows an unlimited number

of plays, then you may load the disc into your player and

play the content as often as you like, and no message will

be displayed.

• If you load a disc that contains DivX VOD content not

authorized for your player, the message Authorization

Error is displayed and the content will not play.

• Resetting the player (as described in Resetting the

player in the main Operating Instructions) will not

cause you to lose your registration code.

Screen sizes and disc formats

Resetting the player

DVD-Video discs come in several different screen aspect

ratios, ranging from TV programs, which are generally

4:3, to CinemaScope widescreen movies, with an aspect

ratio of up to about 7:3.

Televisions, too, come in different aspect ratios; “stan-

dard” 4:3 and widescreen 16:9.

Use this procedure to reset all the player’s settings to the

factory default.

Switch the player into standby.

Using the front panel buttons, hold

down the

button and press

Widescreen TV users

STANDBY/ON to switch the player

back on.

All the player’s settings are now reset.

If you have a widescreen TV, the “TV Screen” setting

(page 42) of this player should be set to “16:9 (Wide)”.

When you watch discs recorded in 4:3 format, you can

use the TV controls to select how the picture is pre-

sented. Your TV may offer various zoom and stretch

options; see the instructions that came with your TV for

details.

Please note that some movie aspect ratios are wider than

16:9, so even though you have a widescreen TV, these

discs will still play in a “letter box” style with black bars

at the top and bottom of the screen.

Setting the TV system

The default setting of this player is “AUTO”, and unless

you notice that the picture is distorted when playing

some discs, you should leave it set to “AUTO”. If you

experience picture distortion with some discs, set the TV

system to match your country or region’s system. Doing

this, however, may restrict the kinds of disc you can

watch. The table below shows what kinds of disc are

compatible with each setting (“AUTO” , “PAL” and

“NTSC”).

Standard TV users

If you have a standard TV, the “TV Screen” setting

(page 42) of this player should be set to “4:3 (Letter

Box)” or “4:3 (Pan&Scan)”, depending on which you

prefer.

Set to “4:3 (Letter Box)”, widescreen discs are shown

with black bars top and bottom.

STANDBY/ON

Set to “4:3 (Pan&Scan)”, widescreen discs are shown

with the left and right sides cropped.

Although the picture looks larger, you don’t actually see

the whole picture.

If the player is on, pressSTANDBY/

ON to switch it to standby.

Using the front panel controls,

hold down

then press

STANDBY/ON to switch the TV

system.

The TV system changes as follows:

Please note that many widescreen discs override the

player’s settings so that the disc is shown in letter box

format regardless of the setting.

AUTO

NTSC

PAL

Note:

• Using the “16:9 (Wide)” setting with a standard 4:3

TV, or either of the “4:3” settings with a widescreen

TV, will result in a distorted picture.

Note:

DVD-Video regions

• You have to switch the player into standby (press

STANDBY/ON) before each change.

All DVD-Video discs carry a region mark on the case

somewhere that indicates which region(s) of the world

the disc is compatible with. Your DVD player also has a

region mark, which you can find on the rear panel. Discs

from incompatible regions will not play in this player.

Discs marked “ALL” will play in any player.

Glossary

Analog audio

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File)

An electrical signal that directly represents sound. Com-

pare this to digital audio which can be an electrical sig-

nal, but is an indirect representation of sound. See also

“Digital audio”.

A file format developed by Fuji Photo Film for digital

still cameras. Digital cameras from various manufactur-

ers use this compressed file format which carries date,

time and thumbnail information, as well as the picture

data.

Aspect ratio

The width of a TV screen relative to its height. Conven-

tional TVs are 4:3 (in other words, the screen is almost

square); widescreen models are 16:9 (the screen is

almost twice as wide as it is high).

File extension

A tag added to the end of a filename to indicate the type

of file. For example, “.mp3” indicates an MP3 file.

ISO 9660 format

International standard for the volume and file structure

of CD-ROM discs.

Digital audio

An indirect representation of sound by numbers. During

recording, the sound is measured at discrete intervals

(44,100 times a second for CD audio) by an analog-to-

digital converter, generating a stream of numbers.

On playback, a digital-to-analog converter generates an

analog signal based on these numbers. See also “Sam-

pling frequency” and “Analog audio”.

JPEG

A file format used for still images, such as photographs

and illustrations. JPEG files are identified by the file

extension “.jpg” or “.JPG”. Most digital cameras use this

format.

MP3

DivX

MP3 (MPEG1 audio layer 3) is a compressed audio file

format. Files are recognized by their file extension

“.mp3” or “.MP3”.

DivX is a media technology created by DivX, Inc. DivX

media files contain compressed video. DivX files can

also include advanced media features like menus, subti-

tles, and alternate audiotracks.

MPEG audio

An audio format used on Video CDs and some DVD

discs. This unit can convert MPEG audio to PCM format

for wider compatibility with digital recorders and AV

amplifiers. See also “PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)”.

Dolby Digital

Using a maximum of 5.1 channels of audio, this high

quality surround system is used in many of the finer

movie theaters around the world.

MPEG video

The on-screen display shows which channels are active,

for example showing 3/2.1. The 3 being the two front

channels and the center channel; the 2 being the sur-

round channels, and the .1 being the LFE channel.

The video format used for Video CDs and DVDs. Video

CD uses the older MPEG-1 standard, while DVD uses

the newer and much better quality MPEG-2 standard.

PBC (PlayBack Control) (Video CD only)

DRM

A system of navigating a Video CD through on-screen

menus recorded onto the disc. Especially good for discs

that you would normally not watch from beginning to

end all at once—karaoke discs, for example.

DRM (digital rights management) is a type of server

software developed to enable secure distribution of paid

content over the web, recently incorporated by WMA

(Windows Media Audio).

PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)

DTS

The most common system of encoding digital audio,

found on CDs and DAT. Excellent quality, but requires a

lot of data compared to formats such as Dolby Digital

and MPEG audio. For compatibility with digital audio

recorders (CD, MD and DAT) and AV amplifiers with

digital inputs, this unit can convert Dolby Digital, DTS

and MPEG audio to PCM. See also “Digital audio”.

DTS stands for Digital Theater Systems. DTS is a sur-

round system different from Dolby Digital that has

become a popular surround sound format for movies.

Dynamic range

The difference between the quietest and loudest sounds

possible in an audio signal (without distorting or getting

lost in noise).

Dolby Digital and DTS soundtracks are capable of a very

wide dynamic range, delivering dramatic cinema-like

effects.

Glossary—Continued

Progressive scan video

All the lines that make up a video picture are updated in

one pass (compared to interlace which takes two passes

to update the whole picture).

Regions (DVD-Video only)

These associate discs and players with particular areas of

the world. This unit will only play discs that have com-

patible region codes. You can find the region code of

your unit by looking on the rear panel. Some discs are

compatible with more than one region (or all regions).

Sampling frequency

The rate at which sound is measured to be turned into

digital audio data. The higher the rate, the better the

sound quality, but the more digital information is gener-

ated. Standard CD audio has a sampling frequency of

44.1kHz, which means 44,100 samples (measurements)

per second. See also “Digital audio”.

WMA

WMA is short for Windows Media Audio and refers to

an audio compression technology developed by

Microsoft Corporation. WMA data can be encoded by

using Windows Media Player version 8 or Windows

Media Player for Windows XP.

Note:

• Static electricity or other external influences may cause malfunctioning of this unit. In this case, unplug the power

cord and then plug back in. This will usually reset the unit for proper operation. If this does not correct the problem,

please consult your nearest our customer center.

The DV-SP305 contains a microcomputer for signal processing and control functions. In very rare situations, severe

interference, noise from an external source, or static electricity may cause it to lockup. In the unlikely even that this

should happen, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait at least five seconds, and then plug it back in again.
