About DVD software types and the conversion method
DVD software can be divided into 2 types: film-based software and video-based software.
Video-based software is derived from TV, such as dramas and sit-coms, and displays images at 30
frames/60 fields per second. Film-based software is derived from film and displays images at 24 frames
per second. Some DVD software contains both video and film.
In order for these images to appear natural on your screen when output in progressive format, the
progressive signals need to be converted to match the type of DVD software that you are watching.
Note
• When you play video-based software in progressive signal format, sections of some types of images may appear
unnatural due to the conversion process when output through the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks. Even though
you set to “PROGRESSIVE AUTO” or “PROGRESSIVE VIDEO,” images from the MONITOR OUT (VIDEO/
S VIDEO) /EURO AV T OUTPUT (TO TV) jacks are unaffected as they are output in the interlace format.
• If you set [LINE] in [SCREEN SETUP] to [RGB] (page 82), the system switches to “INTERLACE.” This will
happen even though you select “PROGRESSIVE AUTO” or “PROGRESSIVE VIDEO.”
• If you set [LINE] in [SCREEN SETUP] to [RGB] (page 82), the system outputs no component video signals.

front surround sound effect.
For details, see “Enjoying Front Surround Sound Using Sound
Field” (page 38).
Notes about positioning the front speakers
For best results, observe the following:
– Place both front speakers the same distance apart as they are from
the listening position (to form an equilateral triangle).
– The front speakers should be placed at least 0.6 m apart.
– The front speakers should be placed at ear level in the listening
position.
– Place the front speakers forward of the TV. Make sure there are
no reflecting obstacles in front of the speakers.

About S-Force PRO Front Surround
Sony’s long-term involvement in surround technology (and the vast
amounts of acoustic data accumulated as a result) has led to the
development of all-new processing method and advanced DSP to
handle this task effectively, which we call S-Force PRO Front
Surround. Compared with previous front surround technologies,
S-Force PRO Front Surround reproduces a more convincing sense
of distance and space, resulting in a true surround sound experience
without the need for rear speakers.
• The sound field for Super Audio
CDs is 2CH STEREO only.
• The surround effect might be
difficult to hear depending on the
type of source signals (e.g., digital
stereo signals, digital multi
signals, etc.) except for DVD
multi-channel signals.
Automatic sound field selection
Tip
• The system memorizes the last
sound field selected for each
function mode.
Whenever you select a function
such as DVD or TUNER, the
sound field that was last applied to

This mode selects the sound field (Surround mode (FOCUS

About MP3 Audio Tracks
and JPEG Image Files
Note
• The system will play any data with the extension
“.MP3,” “.JPG,” or “.JPEG” even if they are not in
MP3 or JPEG format. Playing this data may generate
a loud noise which could damage your speaker
system.
What is MP3/JPEG?
MP3 is audio compression technology that
satisfies the ISO/MPEG regulations. JPEG is
image compression technology.
• The system does not conform to audio in MP3PRO
format.
Playback order of MP3 audio
tracks or JPEG image files
Discs that the system can
play
The playback order of MP3 audio tracks or
JPEG image files recorded on a DATA CD is as
follows:
You can play back DATA CDs (CD-ROMs/CD-
Rs/CD-RWs) recorded in MP3 (MPEG1 Audio
Layer 3) and JPEG format. However, the discs
must be recorded according to ISO 9660 Level
1, Level 2 or Joliet format for the system to
recognize the tracks (or files). You can also play
discs recorded in Multi Session.

DVD
A disc that contains up to 8 hours of moving
pictures even though its diameter is the same as
a CD.
Glossary
Album
The data capacity of a single-layer and single-
sided DVD, at 4.7 GB (Giga Byte), is 7 times
that of a CD. Furthermore, the data capacity of a
dual-layer and single-sided DVD is 8.5 GB, a
single-layer and double-sided DVD 9.4 GB, and
a dual-layer and double-sided DVD 17 GB.
The picture data uses the MPEG 2 format, one of
a worldwide standard of digital compression
technology. The picture data is compressed to
about 1/40 of its original size. The DVD also
uses the variable rate coding technology that
processes allocated data according to the status
of the picture.
The 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.
Section of a music piece or an image on a data
CD containing MP3 audio tracks or JPEG files.
Chapter
Subdivision of a title on a DVD. A title is
composed of several chapters.
DivX®
Digital video technology created by
DivXNetworks, Inc. Videos encoded with DivX
technology are among the highest quality with a
relatively small file size.
Dolby Digital
This movie theater sound format 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. This format is also
called “5.1” with the subwoofer channel
designed as the 0.1 channel (since it functions
only when a deep bass effect is needed). All six
channels in this format are recorded separately
for superior channel separation. Furthermore,
since all the signals are processed digitally, less
signal degradation occurs.
DVD-RW
A DVD-RW is a recordable and rewritable disc
that is the same size as a DVD VIDEO. The
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.
Dolby Pro Logic II
Dolby Pro Logic II creates five full-bandwidth
output channels from 2 channel sources. This is
done using an advanced, high-purity matrix
surround decoder that extracts the spatial
properties of the original recording without
adding any new sounds or tonal colorations.
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.
DTS
File
Digital audio compression technology
developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc. This
technology conforms to 5.1-channel surround.
This format comprises of stereo rear channel and
there is discrete subwoofer channel in this
format. DTS provides the same 5.1 discrete
channels of high quality digital audio. The good
channel separation is realized due to the all
channel data being recorded discretely and
processed in digitally.

play discs with the “ ” mark. Even when the
region code is not shown on the DVD, the region
limit may still apply.
Interlace format
(Interlaced scanning)
Scene
The 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.
On a VIDEO CD with PBC (playback control)
functions, the menu screens, moving pictures
and still pictures are divided into sections called
“scenes.”
S-Force PRO Front Surround
Sony’s long-term involvement in surround
technology (and the vast amounts of acoustic
data accumulated as a result) has led to the
development of all-new processing method and
advanced DSP to handle this task effectively,
which we call S-Force PRO Front Surround.
Compared with previous front surround
technologies, S-Force PRO Front Surround
reproduces a more convincing sense of distance
and space, resulting in a true surround sound
experience without the need for rear speakers.
Multi-angle function
Various angles of a scene, or viewpoints of the
video camera are recorded on some DVDs.
Multilingual function
Several languages for the sound or subtitles in a
picture are recorded on some DVDs.
Parental Control
A function of the DVD to limit playback of the
disc by the age of the users according to the
limitation level in each country. The 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.
S-Master
S-Master is an all-digital amplifier technology
developed by Sony, which effectively
minimizes the occurrence of sound
fragmentation and jitter, delivering superb
dialog clarity and faithful reproduction of the
original sound. The compact amplifier section
supports a higher power efficiency and
improved thermal performance.
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.
Title
The longest section of a picture or music feature
on a DVD, movie, etc., in video software, or the
entire album in audio software.
Progressive format
(sequential scanning)
In contrast to the Interlace format, the
Track

VIDEO CD, CD, or MP3. An album is
composed of several tracks (MP3 only).
progressive format can reproduce 60 frames per
second by reproducing all scanning lines (525
lines for the NTSC system). The overall picture
quality increases and still images, text and
horizontal lines appear sharper. This format is
compatible with the 525 progressive format.
VIDEO CD
A compact disc that contains moving pictures.
The picture data uses the MPEG 1 format, one of
a worldwide standard of digital compression
technology. The 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.
Region Code
This system is used to protect copyrights. A
region number is allocated on each DVD system
or DVD disc according to the sales region. Each
region code is shown on the system as well as on
the disc packaging. The system can play discs
that match its region code. The system can also

audio information of conventional audio CDs.
There are 2 versions of VIDEO CDs.
• Version 1.1: You can play only moving
pictures and sounds.

pictures and enjoy PBC functions.
