surround sound and MPEG-2 video compression technology. Now you can enjoy these  
realistic effects in the home, as if you were in a movie theater or concert hall.

CD-R Discs  
Depending on the disc recording device (CD-Recorder or PC ) and the condition of the disc, some CD-R discs  
DVD players and the discs are coded by region. These regional codes must match in order  
for the disc to play. If the codes do not match, the disc will not play.  
may not be playable.

Use a 650MB/74 minute CD-R. Avoid CD-R media, as they may not be playable.  
If possible, do not use CD-RW (Rewritable) media, as they may not be playable.  
The Region Number for this player is given on the rear panel of the player.  
(Your DVD player will only play DVDs that are labeled with identical region codes.)  
Only the CD-Rs that are properly "closed" can be fully played. If the session is closed but the disc is left open,  
you may not be able to fully play the disc.

If the disc is not closed, it will take longer to start playing and not all of the recorded files may be played.  
Copy Protection  
Only CD-R discs with JPEG files in ISO 9660 or Joliet format can be played.  
JPEG file names should be 8 characters or less in length and contain no blank spaces or special characters (. / = +).  
Many DVD discs are encoded with copy protection. Because of this, you should only connect  
your DVD player directly to your TV, not to a VCR. Connecting to a VCR results in a distorted pic-  
ture from copy-protected DVD discs.  
Only a consecutively written multisession disc can be played. If there is a blank segment in the multisession disc, the  
disc can be played only up to the blank segment.  
A maximum of 9,999 images can be stored on a single CD.

P.SCAN(Progressive Scan) Function  
Connecting the Video Out to TV  
Unlike regular Interlace Scan, in which two fields of picture information alternate to create the  
entire picture (odd scan lines, then even scan lines), Progressive Scan uses one field of  
information (all lines displayed in one pass) to create a clear and detailed picture without  
visible scan lines.  
Make sure that turn off and disconnect the plug from outlet before moving or installing the product.  
In connecting to video, select one of following three methods that suits for TV and connect it.

What is Progressive (or Non-Interlaced) Scanning?  
METHOD 1  
Interlaced Scan (1 FRAME = 2 FIELDS)  
Progressive Scan (FULL FRAME)  
TV  
VIDEO  
IN  
COMPONENT  
IN  
S-Video  
In interlaced-scan video, a frame consists of two inter-  
laced fields (odd and even), where each field contains  
every other horizontal line in the frame.  
The odd field of alternating lines is displayed first, and  
then the even field is displayed to fill in the alternating  
gaps left by the odd field to form a single frame.  
One frame, displayed every 1/30th of a second, contains  
two interfaced fields, thus a total of 60 fields are dis-  
played every 1/60th of a second.  
The progressive scanning method scans one full frame of  
video consecutively down the screen, line by line.  
An entire image is drawn at one time, as opposed to the  
interlaced scanning process by which a video image is  
drawn in a series of passes.  
...............  
METHOD 1 Composite Video  
Good Quality  
Connect the supplied video cable from the VIDEO OUT jack on the back panel of the  
system to the VIDEO IN jack on your television.  
The progressive scanning method is desirable for dealing  
with moving objects.  
...............  
METHOD 2 S-Video  
Better Quality  
If you television is equipped with an S-Video input, connect an S-Video cable (not supplied)  
from the S-VIDEO OUT jack on the back panel of the system to the S-VIDEO IN jack on  
your television.  
The interlaced scanning method is intended for capturing  
a still object.  
Note  
This function works only on TVs equipped with component video inputs (Y, Pr, Pb) that support  
Progressive Video. (It does not work on TVs with conventional component inputs, i.e., non-progressive  
scan TVs.)  
...............  
METHOD 3 Component (Progressive Scan) Video  
Best Quality  
If your television is equipped with Component Video inputs, connect a component video  
cable (not supplied) from the Pr, Pb and Y jacks on the back panel of the system to the  
corresponding jacks on your television.  
Depending on the brand and model of your TV, this function may not work.  
Selecting the Video Format  
Press and hold NTSC/PAL button on the remote controller for over 5 seconds while the power is turned off.  
When the Progressive scan mode is selected, the VIDEO and SCART outputs  
do not feed any signal. See page 14 to select Progressive Scan.  
Note  
"NTSC" or "PAL" will appear in the display.  
At this time, press the NTSC/PAL button shortly to select between "NTSC" and "PAL".  
Each country has a different video format standard.  
For normal playback, the video format of the disc must be the same as the video format of your TV.
