Where Do You Start?

Disconnect all equipment from power. Connect equipment to

power only after you have finished hooking up everything. Do not

change connections with equipment connected to a power outlet.

Put the batteries in the remote control and connect the

AM and FM antennas as detailed below.

Note: If your TV only has a single Antenna

In(put) jack, you will need an accessory RF

Modulator to view the DVD playback on your

TV. See your electronics retailer or contact

Philips for details on RF Modulator availability.

Connect the DVD Receiver to a Television using one of the

options detailed in your separate Quick-Use Guide (or on

pages 10-12).

G You need only one video connection between the DVD Receiver

and the TV. Use Composite Video (good picture quality), S-Video

(better picture), or Component Video (best picture). Use the best

connection available with your TV.

G Set the TV to the correct VIDEO IN channel. Such channels

may be called AUX(iliary) IN, AUDIO/VIDEO (A/V) IN, EXT1, S-

VIDEO, etc. These channels are often near channel 00 on your

TV. Or, your TV remote control may have a button or switch that

chooses different Video modes. With some TVs, you use the TV’s

menu to select a Video mode. See your TV manual for details.

TV System (NTSC, PAL) 27

DVDs are recorded according to a color system, the most common of

which are NTSC and PAL. NTSC is the most common in the United States.

Your TV also operates according to a color system.

The DVD Receiver is compatible with both NTSC and PAL. However, to

play a DVD, the color system of the DVD, the TV, and the DVD Receiver

should match. If all three are not the same, the DVD may play in only black

and white, the picture may roll continuously, or the picture may appear dis-

torted.

By adjusting TV System, you can set the DVD Receiver’s color system to

match that of your DVDs and your TV.

Some Audio CDs available on the market are copy protected. These discs will not play on this DVD Receiver. See your retail-

er for options regarding non-protected Audio CDs.

The DVD Receiver does not respond to the remote control.

•

Aim the remote control directly at the remote sensor on the front of the DVD Receiver, not your TV.

Remove any obstacles between the DVD Receiver and the remote. Move closer to the DVD Receiver and try again.

Inspect or replace the batteries in the remote control. Details are on page 9.

Use the SOURCE buttons (TV/AV, DISC, TUNER, AUX) to place the remote in the right mode. For example, when using the

remote to start Disc playback, press DISC first.

You cannot activate some features, such as Angles, Subtitles, or multi-language Audio.

•

The feature may not be available on the Disc. Check the Disc case to see if the Disc has the feature. If the Disc does not have

the feature, the DVD Receiver cannot create the feature. This is not a malfunction of the DVD Receiver.

The DVD Receiver does not work.

42 Glossary

Analog: Sound that has not been turned into numbers. Analog sound

varies, while digital sound has specific numerical values. Analog sound is

available when you use the red and white audio jacks on your equipment.

These jacks send audio through two channels, the left and right.

AUDIO OUT Jacks: Jacks on the back of the DVD Receiver that send

audio to another system (TV, Stereo, etc.).

Bit Rate: The amount of data used to hold a given length of music; mea-

sured in kilobits per seconds, or kbps. Or, the speed at which you record.

Generally, the higher the bit rate, or the higher the recording speed, the

better the sound quality. However, higher bit rates use more space on a

Disc.

For example, an MP3 music file recorded at 32 kbps will record slowly, use

the least Disc space, and have the poorest sound quality. But, an MP3

music file recorded at 96 kbps will record quicker, use more Disc space,

and have significantly better sound quality.

CD: Compact Disc (audio).

Coaxial jack: Sends digital audio to a Stereo, allowing you to adjust the

volume at the Stereo. The Stereo must have a coaxial in jack. This connec-

tion provides the 5.1 channel surround sound as heard in movie theaters.

Component Video Out Jacks: Jacks on the back of the DVD Receiver

that send high-quality video to a TV that has Component Video In jacks.

Digital: Sound that has been converted into numerical values. Digital

sound is available when you use the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT COAXIAL or

OPTICAL jacks. These jacks send audio through multiple channels, instead

of just two channels as analog does.

Dolby Digital: A surround sound system that provides 5.1 channel sound

as used in movie theaters.

DTS: Digital Theater Systems. This is a surround sound system, but it is

different from Dolby Digital. The formats were developed by different

companies.

DVD: Digital Video Disc.

Letterbox: A TV aspect ratio setting (4:3). Displays the video in full-

width, with black bars at the top and bottom of the TV screen. This format

is similar to seeing a movie in a theater. If the Disc does not include a let-

terbox format , selecting Letterbox may have no effect. (For example,

some DVDs are two-sided, with one side playing in Letterbox and the

other side playing in a normal format.)

OPTICAL Jack: Converts electrical signals into optical signals before

sending the audio to the Stereo. Optical audio is not prone to external

electrical influences and has less noise, which reduces adverse effects on

external equipment. Be sure to keep the protective cap on the jack when

the jack is not in use. This keeps dust out of the jack.

Pan & Scan: A TV aspect ratio setting (4:3). Displays the video with full-

height picture, with one or both sides of the picture trimmed. Some movie

companies refer to this as “reformatting the picture to fit your TV screen.”

Remote Control: The unit that came with your DVD Receiver and

allows you to operate your DVD Receiver from a distance.

S-Video: Produces a clear picture by sending separate signals for the

luminance and the color. You can use S-Video only if your TV has an S-

Video In jack.

VIDEO OUT Jack: Jack on the back of the DVD Receiver that sends

video to a TV.

Widescreen: A TV aspect ratio setting (16:9). Displays the video appro-

priately when you connect the DVD Receiver to a widescreen TV.

(In U.S.A., Puerto Rico, and U.S. Virgin Islands, all implied warranties,

including implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a par-

ticular purpose, are limited in duration to the duration of this express

warranty. But, because some states do not allow limitations on how

long an implied warranty may last, this limitation may not apply to

you.)
