Notes on CD-R/-RW and  
DVD-R/-RW/+R/+RW  
Music discs encoded with  
copyright protection technologies  
is product is designed to play back  
discs that conform to the Compact Disc  
(CD) standard. Recently, various music  
discs encoded with copyright protection  
technologies are marketed by some  
record companies. Please be aware that  
among those discs, there are some that  
do not conform to the CD standard and  
may not be playable by this product.  
In some cases, CD-Rs/-RWs and  
DVD-Rs/-RWs/+Rs/+RWs cannot be  
played back on this system due to the  
recording quality or physical condition  
of the disc, or the characteristics of  
the recording device and authoring  
soſtware. e disc will not be played  
back if it has not been correctly  
finalized. For more information, see  
the operation instructions for the  
recording device.  
Note that some playback functions  
may not work with some DVD+Rs/  
+RWs, even if they have been correctly  
finalized. In this case, view the disc by  
normal playback.  
A disc created in Packet Write format  
cannot be played back.  
Notes on Multi Session disc  
is system can play back Multi  
Session discs when an MP3 audio  
track, a JPEG image file or a DivX  
video file is contained in the first  
session. Any subsequent MP3 audio  
tracks, image files or DivX video files  
recorded in later sessions can also be  
played back.  
If the first session is recorded in  
AUDIO CD or VIDEO CD format,  
only the first session will be played  
back.  
e system will recognize a Multi  
Session disc as an AUDIO CD if there  
is a session recorded in AUDIO CD  
format on the disc. However, the  
system will only play back the disc if  
the first session is recorded in AUDIO  
CD format.  
With DATA CD or DATA DVD, the  
system will only play back DivX video  
files even if it contains MP3 audio  
tracks or JPEG image files.  
Note on playback operations of  
DVD VIDEOs and VIDEO CDs  
Some playback operations of DVD  
VIDEOs and VIDEO CDs may be  
intentionally set by soſtware producers.  
Since this system play back DVD  
VIDEOs and VIDEO CDs according to  
the disc contents the soſtware producers  
designed, some playback features may  
not be available. Also, refer to the  
instructions supplied with the DVD  
VIDEOs or VIDEO CDs.

Notes on discs  
Before playing, wipe the disc with a cleaning  
cloth from the center out to the edge.  
Do not clean discs with solvents, such as  
benzine thinner, or commercially available  
cleaners or anti-static spray intended for  
vinyl LPs.  
Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or heat  
sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a  
car parked in direct sunlight.  
On placement  
Do not place the system in an inclined  
position or in locations that are extremely  
hot, cold, dusty, dirty, or humid or lacking  
adequate ventilation, or subject to vibration,  
direct sunlight or a bright light.  
Be careful when placing the unit or speakers  
on surfaces that have been specially treated  
(for example, with wax, oil, polish) as  
staining or discoloration of the surface may  
result.  
If the system is brought directly from a cold  
to a warm location or is placed in a very  
damp room, moisture may condense on the  
lens inside the DVD player, and cause the  
system to malfunction. In this situation,  
remove the disc, and leave the system turned  
on for about an hour until the moisture  
evaporates.  
Do not use discs encircled with a protection  
ring. is may cause a malfunction to the  
system.  
On operating voltage  
Before operating the system, check that the  
operating voltage of the unit is identical with  
the voltage of your local power supply.

DTS  
Digital audio compression technology  
that the Digital eater Systems, Inc.  
developed. is technology conforms  
to 5.1-channel surround. e surround  
channel is stereo and there is discrete  
subwoofer channel in this format. DTS  
provides the same 5.1 discrete channels  
of high quality digital audio. e good  
channel separation is realized because the  
all channel data is recorded discrete and  
processed in digital.  
Glossary  
Album  
Section of a music or picture piece on  
a DATA CD or DATA DVD containing  
MP3 audio tracks, JPEG image files or  
DivX image file.  
Chapter  
Subdivision of a title on a DVD VIDEO.  
A title is composed of several chapters.  
DVD VIDEO  
DivX  
®
A disc that contains up to 8 hours of  
moving pictures even though its diameter  
is the same as an AUDIO CD.  
Digital video technology created by  
DivX, Inc. Videos encoded with DivX  
technology are among the highest quality  
with a relatively small file size.  
e data capacity of a single-layer and  
single-sided DVD VIDEO, at 4.7 GB  
(Giga Byte), is 7 times that of an AUDIO  
CD. Furthermore, the data capacity of a  
dual-layer and single-sided DVD VIDEO  
is 8.5 GB, a single-layer and double-sided  
DVD VIDEO 9.4 GB, and a dual-layer  
and double-sided DVD VIDEO 17 GB.  
e picture data uses the MPEG 2  
format, one of the worldwide standards  
for digital compression technology. e  
picture data is compressed to about 1/40  
of its original size. e DVD VIDEO  
also uses variable rate coding technology  
that changes the data to be allocated  
according to the status of the picture.  
Dolby Digital  
is sound format for movie theaters is  
more advanced than Dolby Surround  
Pro Logic. In this format, the surround  
speakers output stereo sound with  
an expanded frequency range and a  
subwoofer channel for deep bass is  
independently provided. is format is  
also called “5.1” because the subwoofer  
channel is counted as 0.1 channel (since  
it functions only when a deep bass effect  
is needed). All six channels in this format  
are recorded separately to realize superior  
channel separation. Furthermore, since  
all the signals are processed digitally, less  
signal degradation occurs.

e audio data is recorded in Dolby  
Digital as well as in PCM, allowing you to  
enjoy more realistic audio presence.  
Furthermore, various advanced functions  
such as the multi-angle, multilingual, and  
Parental Control functions are provided  
with the DVD VIDEO.  
Film based software, Video based  
software  
DVD VIDEOs can be classified as Film  
based or Video based soſtware. Film  
based DVD VIDEOs contain the same  
images (24 frames per second) that are  
shown at movie theaters. Video based  
DVD VIDEOs, such as television dramas  
or sitcoms, displays images at 30 frames  
(or 60 fields) per second.  
DVD-RW  
A DVD-RW is a recordable and  
rewritable disc that is the same size as  
a DVD VIDEO. e DVD-RW has two  
different modes: VR mode and Video  
mode. DVD-RWs created in Video  
mode have the same format as a DVD  
VIDEO, while discs created in VR (Video  
Recording) mode allow the contents to  
be programmed or edited.  
Interlace format (Interlaced scanning)  
e Interlace format is the NTSC  
standard method for displaying TV  
images at 30 frames per second. Each  
frame is scanned twice-alternately  
between the even numbered scanning  
lines and then odd numbered scanning  
lines, at 60 times per second.  
DVD+RW  
A DVD+RW (plus RW) is a recordable  
and rewritable disc. DVD+RWs use a  
recording format that is comparable to  
the DVD VIDEO format.  
Multi-angle function  
Various angles, or viewpoints of the video  
camera, for a scene are recorded on some  
DVD VIDEOs.  
File  
Multilingual function  
A JPEG image file or a DivX video file  
recorded on a DATA CD or DATA DVD.  
(“File” is an exclusive definition for this  
system.) A single file consists of a single  
image or movie.  
Several languages for the sound or  
subtitles in a picture are recorded on  
some DVD VIDEOs.

Parental Control  
Region Code  
A function of the DVD VIDEO to limit  
playback of the disc by the age of the  
users according to the limitation level in  
each country. e limitation varies from  
disc to disc; when it is activated, playback  
is completely prohibited, violent scenes  
are skipped or replaced with other scenes  
and so on.  
is system is used to protect copyrights.  
A region code is allocated on each DVD  
system or DVD VIDEO according to  
the sales region. Each region code is  
shown on the unit as well as on the disc  
packaging. e system can play back  
the discs that match its region code. e  
system can also play back discs with the  
” mark. Even when the region code  
is not shown on the DVD VIDEO, the  
region limit may still be activated.  
Playback Control (PBC)  
Signals encoded on VIDEO CDs (Version  
2.0) to control playback. By using menu  
screens recorded on VIDEO CDs with  
PBC functions, you can enjoy playing  
simple interactive programs, programs  
with search functions, and so on.  
Scene  
On a VIDEO CD with PBC functions,  
the menu screens, moving pictures and  
still pictures are divided into sections  
called “scenes.”  
Progressive format (sequential  
scanning)  
Title  
e longest section of a picture or a  
music piece on a DVD VIDEO; a movie,  
etc., for a picture piece on video soſtware,  
or the entire album in audio soſtware.  
In contrast to the Interlace format,  
the progressive format can reproduce  
50 60 frames per second by  
reproducing all scanning lines (525  
lines for the NTSC system, 625 lines  
for PAL system). e overall picture  
quality increases and still images, text  
and horizontal lines appear sharper. is  
format is compatible with the 525 or 625  
progressive format.  
Track  
Section of a picture or a music piece on  
a VIDEO CD, CD, or MP3. An album is  
composed of several tracks (MP3 only).

VIDEO CD  
A compact disc that contains moving  
pictures.  
e picture data uses the MPEG 1  
format, one of the worldwide standards  
for digital compression technology. e  
picture data is compressed to about 1/140  
of its original size. Consequently, a 12 cm  
VIDEO CD can contain up to 74 minutes  
of moving pictures.  
VIDEO CDs also contain compact audio  
data.  
Sounds outside the range of human  
hearing are compressed while the  
sounds we can hear are not compressed.  
VIDEO CDs can hold 6 times the audio  
information of conventional AUDIO  
CDs.  
ere are 2 versions of VIDEO CDs.  
Version 1.1: You can play back only  
moving pictures and sounds.  
Version 2.0: You can play back high-  
resolution still pictures and enjoy PBC  
functions.  
is system conforms to both versions.
