Before Use  
Note on DTS-encoded CDs

When playing DTS-encoded CDs, excessive noise may  
be exhibited from the analog stereo output. To avoid  
possible damage to the audio system, turn down the  
volume before playing back such discs, adjust the vol-  
ume gradually, and keep the volume level low. To enjoy  
DTS Digital Surround® playback, an external 5.1 chan-  
nel DTS Digital Surround® decoder system must be con-  
nected to the digital output of the unit.

CD-R or CD-RW that contains audio titles, MP3, WMA  
or JPEG files.  
Title (DVD only)  
The main film content or accompanying feature content  
or additional feature content, or music album.  
Each title is assigned a title reference number enabling  
you to locate it easily.  
Notes  
Depending on the conditions of the recording equip-  
ment or the CD-R/RW (or DVD-R/ RW) disc itself,  
some CD-R/RW (or DVD-R/ RW) discs cannot be  
played on the unit.  
Chapter (DVD only)  
Sections of a picture or a musical piece that are smaller  
than titles. A title is composed of one or several chap-  
ters. Each chapter is assigned a chapter number,  
enabling you to locate the chapter you want. Depending  
on the disc, chapters may not be recorded.  
Do not attach any seal or label to either side (the  
labeled side or the recorded side) of a disc.  
Do not use irregularly shaped CDs (e.g., heart-  
shaped or octagonal). It may result in malfunctions.  
Track (Video CD and Audio CD only)  
Sections of a picture or a musical piece on a video CD  
or an audio CD. Each track is assigned a track number,  
enabling you to locate the track you want.  
Notes on DVDs and Video CDs  
Because of problems and errors that can occur during  
the creation of DVD and Video CD software and/or the  
manufacture of DVD and Video CD discs, Toshiba can-  
not guarantee that this DVD/VCR Receiver will play  
every feature of every DVD bearing the DVD logo  
and/or every Video CD bearing the CD logo. As one of  
the creators of DVD technology, Toshiba DVD players  
are manufactured using the highest standards of quality,  
and as a result, such incompatibilities are rare. If you  
happen to experience any difficulty playing a DVD or a  
Video CD on this DVD/VCR Receiver, please feel free  
to call our Consumer Solution Center (see page 49).  
Scene  
On a video CD with PBC (Playback control) functions,  
moving pictures and still pictures are divided into sec-  
tions called “Scenes”. Each scene is displayed in the  
menu screen and assigned a scene number, enabling  
you to locate the scene you want.  
A scene is composed of one or several tracks.  
Types of Video CDs  
There are two types of Video CDs:  
Notes on copyright  
Video CDs equipped with PBC (Version 2.0)  
PBC (Playback control) functions allow you to interact  
with the system via menus, search functions, or other  
typical computer-like operations. Moreover, still pictures  
of high resolution can be played if they are included in  
the disc.  
The unauthorized recording, use, distribution, or revi-  
sion of television programs, videotapes, DVDs and  
other materials, is prohibited under the Copyright Laws  
of the United States and other countries, and may sub-  
ject you to civil and/or criminal liability.  
This product incorporates copyright protection technolo-  
gy that is protected by method claims of certain U.S.  
patents and other intellectual property rights owned by  
Macrovision Corporation and other rights owners. Use  
of this copyright protection technology must be author-  
ized by Macrovision Corporation, and is intended for  
home and other limited viewing uses only unless other-  
wise authorized by Macrovision Corporation. Reverse  
engineering or disassembly is prohibited.  
Video CDs not equipped with PBC (Version 1.1)  
Operated in the same way as audio CDs, these discs  
allow playback of video pictures as well as sound, but  
they are not equipped with PBC.  
Regional code of the DVD/VCR Receiver and DVDs  
This DVD/VCR Receiver is designed and man-  
ufactured for playback of region “1” encoded  
DVD software. The region code on the labels of  
1
some DVDs indicates which type of player can  
play those discs. This unit can only play DVDs labelled  
“1” or “ALL”. If you try to play any other discs, the mes-  
sage “Check Regional Code” will appear on the TV  
screen. Some DVDs that have no region code label  
may still be subject to area restrictions and therefore  
not playable.

Tips  
Without Cable Box  
If your cable wire is connected to your TV without a converter  
or descrambler box, unscrew the wire from your TV and attach  
it to the ANT.IN jack on the DVD/VCR Receiver. Use the sup-  
plied round coaxial cable to connect between the DVD/VCR  
Receiver’s RF.OUT jack and the 75 ohm antenna input jack on  
the TV. With this connection, you can receive all midband,  
super band, and hyperband channels.  
Depending on your TV and other equipment you wish to  
connect, there are various ways you could connect the  
DVD/VCR Receiver. Use connections described on pages  
11-14.  
Please refer to the manuals of your TV, VCR, Stereo  
System or other devices as necessary to make the best  
connections.  
With Cable Box  
If a converter is required in your cable system, follow the  
instruction below:  
The cable hookup permits both TV and DVD/VCR Receiver  
operation.  
To view or record a CATV channel  
Caution  
Make sure the DVD/VCR Receiver is connected directly to  
the TV. Tune the TV to the correct video input channel.  
Do not connect the DVD/VCR Receiver’s DVD/VCR AUDIO  
OUT jack to the phono in jack (record deck) of your audio  
system.  
Do not connect your DVD/VCR Receiver via your VCR. The  
DVD image could be distorted by the copy protection sys-  
tem.  
The unauthorized recording, use, distribution, or revision of  
television programs, videotapes, DVDs and other materials,  
is prohibited under the Copyright Laws of the United States  
and other countries, and may subject you to civil and/or  
criminal liability.  
1 Tune the TV to the DVD/VCR Receiver output channel (CH  
3 or 4).  
2 Set the DVD/VCR Receiver channel selector to the output  
channel of the Cable Converter box using CH/TRK (v/V) or  
number (0-9) of your DVD/VCR Receiver. (Example: CH3)  
3 Select the channel to view at the Cable Converter Box.  
Notes  
With this connection, you CANNOT record one program  
while viewing another.  
Connecting Antenna/Cable TV to  
DVD/VCR Receiver  
If you are using a cable box to tune channels, it is not nec-  
essary to do Auto Channel Programming, (Auto Channel  
Search) as indicated on page 18.  
1. Disconnect the antenna leads from the rear of the  
TV.

Speaker Positioning  
For a normal setup use 6 speakers (2 front speakers,

by matching the colors of the terminals and those of the  
cords. To obtain the best possible surround sound,  
adjust the speaker parameters (distance, level, etc.).  
center speaker, 2 rear speakers and subwoofer).  
• Front Speakers  
Based on your listening position, set up the speakers  
at equal distance. And by hearing position, set up an  
interval between speakers of 45 degree.  
Notes  
Be sure to match the speaker cord to the appropriate  
terminal on the components: 3 to 3 and # to #. If  
the cords are reversed, the sound will be distorted  
and lack bass.  
If you use front speakers with low maximum input rat-  
ing, adjust the volume carefully to avoid excessive  
volume output to the speakers.  
• Center Speaker  
It is ideal that the center speakers and front speakers  
are same height. But normally place it above or below  
the television as shown below.  
• Rear Speakers  
Place the rear surround speakers to the left and right  
behind the primary listening area. These speakers  
recreate sound motion and atmosphere required for  
surround playback. For best results, do not install the  
rear speakers too far behind the listening position,  
install them at or above the level of the listener’s ears.  
It is also effective to direct the rear speakers towards  
a wall or ceiling to further disperse the sound.  
In the case of a smaller room size, if the audience is  
near to the rear wall set the rear speakers opposite  
each other, and set the rear speakers 60 - 90 cm  
above the listener’s ears.  
Do not disassemble the front covers of supplied speakers.

Each time you press AUDIO button, the sound mode of DVD is  
changed as the following order;  
of being in a movie theater or live concert house-an effect with  
an intensity which can only be obtained through DOLBY PRO  
LOGIC SURROUND. The effect of the front/back/left/right  
movement of the sound image, as well as the sense of fixed  
position in the sound image, is much clearer and more dynam-  
ic than before.  
Note  
Depending on discs format, you may not be able to change the  
sound mode.  
(Dolby Pro Logic II)  
Dolby Pro Logic II creates five full-bandwidth output channels  
from two-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.  
For your reference  
The DVD/VCR Receiver memorizes the last mode  
settings for each source individually.  
You can identify the encoding format of program  
software by looking at its packaging.  
MOVIE mode:  
The Movie mode is for use with stereo television shows and all  
programs encoded in Dolby Surround. The result is enhanced  
soundfield directionality that approaches the quality of discrete  
5.1-channel sound.

The Music mode is for use with any stereo music recordings, and  
provides a wide and deep sound space. The Music mode  
includes controls that allow the sound to be tailored to individual  
listening tastes.  
Note  
When you play sound tracks with 96kHz sampling frequency,  
the output signals will be converted to 48kHz (sampling  
frequency).  
MATRIX mode:  
The Matrix mode is the same as the Music mode except that the  
directional enhancement logic is turned off. It may be used to  
enhance mono signals by making them seem “larger.” The Matrix  
mode may also find use in auto systems, where the fluctuations  
from poor FM stereo reception can otherwise cause disturbing  
surround signals from a logic decoder. The ultimate “cure” for  
poor FM stereo reception may be simply to force the audio to  
mono.  
Volume Control  
You can adjust the volume by rotating VOLUME on the  
front panel or by pressing VOLUME (v/V) on the  
remote control repeatedly.

audio from a home theater. This feature works with DVD discs  
encoded with Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby Digital audio tracks.

on or off.  
FUNCTION OSD can be switched between ON and OFF  
using b/B.  
AUDIO MODE  
The DVD/VCR Receiver has two separate audio playback sys-  
tems, the high quality VHS Hi-Fi system and standard NOR-  
MAL mono system. The same audio is generally recorded on  
both systems. The VHS Hi-Fi system plays on separate (left  
and right) channels, and the NORMAL system plays monaural  
sound. The normal track is always played so the cassette can  
be played on a DVD/VCR Receiver that does not have VHS  
Hi-Fi.  
3. Use V to choose the SOURCE SELECT option,  
then use b/B to select TUNER.  
Press b/B repeatedly to switch between TUNER,  
LINE1(L1) and LINE2(L2).

then use b/B to search for channels.  
AUDIO MODE can be switched between HI-FI and  
NORMAL using b/B.  
The tuner will automatically cycle through all  
available channels in the area and place them in the  
tuner’s memory.  
BROADCAST TYPE (STEREO/SAP/MONO)  
Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) carries stereo and/or  
Second Audio Program (SAP) bilingual signals. Set this display to  
the desired position when both MTS stereo and SAP signals are  
received. When only one of the MTS signal is received, the  
DVD/VCR Receiver automatically selects the corresponding  
receiving mode (Stereo or SAP) regardless of the selected posi-  
tion. For normal operation, the display should be in the STEREO  
position. The DVD/VCR Receiver will then record a STEREO pro-  
gram when available, and record a mono program IF the program is  
NOT IN STEREO.  
5. After the AUTO CHANNEL SET PROCEEDING is  
complete, make sure the TUNING BAND is set  
appropriately (TV or CATV) using v/V and  
choosing the correct TUNING BAND (TV or  
CATV) by using b/B while in the TUNING menu.  
Remember, TV is for the air antenna reception,  
CATV is for cable or wireless cable connection.  
For weak STEREO and/or SAP broadcasts, changing the dis-  
play to mono may give clearer sound.

With the DVD format, you can hear a program’s sound-  
track in the most accurate and realistic presentation  
possible, thanks to digital audio technology. However,  
you may wish to compress the dynamic range of the  
audio output (the difference between the loudest sounds

at a lower volume without losing clarity of sound. Set  
DRC to On for this effect.

Notes  
Actual picture enhancement may vary depending on the  
quality of the disc.  
While the DNR2 (expanded level) can provide additional  
improvement in the reduction of noise in the video signal, it  
may produce undesirable picture artifacts on some discs.  
Should this occur, select a more appropriate DNR level (nor-  
mal or off).

Depending on the disc, some picture detail may be lost by  
the picture enhancement.

About MP3  
WMA  
Discs  
An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using the  
MPEG1 audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call  
files that have the “.mp3” file extension “MP3 files”.  
The DVD/VCR Receiver can not read an MP3 file  
that has a file extension other than “.mp3”.  
The DVD/VCR Receiver can play MP3/WMA formatted  
recordings on CD-ROM, CD-R or CD-RW discs.  
Before playing MP3/WMA discs, read the notes on  
MP3/WMA Recordings on right.  
1. Insert a disc and close the tray.  
Audio CD: Audio CD menu appears on the TV  
screen. Go to step 4.  
About WMA (Windows Media Audio) Files  
An WMA file is a Microsoft audio compression  
technology.  
WMA(Windows Media Audio) offers double audio  
compression of the MP3 format.  
MP3/WMA disc: The MP3/WMA-JPEG choice menu  
appears on the TV screen. Go to step 2.  
MP3 WMA  
MP3/WMA Disc compatibility with this player is  
limited as follows:  
JPEG  
1. Sampling Frequency / only at 44.1kHz (MP3),  
22.05 - 44.1kHz (WMA)  
2. Bit rate / within 32 - 320kbps (MP3),  
32 - 128kbps (WMA)  
2. Use 3/4to select the MP3/WMA then press  
ENTER.  
The MP3/WMA menu appears on the TV screen.  
Press RETURN to move to the MP3/WMA-JPEG  
choice menu.  
3. CD-R physical format should be “ISO 9660”  
4. If you record MP3/WMA files using the software  
which cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example  
“Direct-CD” etc., it is impossible to playback  
MP3/WMA files. We recommend that you use “Easy-  
CD Creator”, which creates an ISO9660 file system.  
5. A single session disc requires MP3/WMA files in the  
first track. If there is no MP3/WMA file in the 1st  
track, it cannot playback MP3/WMA files. If you wish  
to playback MP3/WMA files, format all the data in  
the disc or use a new one.  
6. File names should be named using 8 letters or less  
and must incorporate “.mp3” or “.wma” extension  
e.g. “********.MP3” or “********.WMA”.  
7. Do not use special letters such as “/ : * ? “ < > ” etc.  
8. Total number of files on the disc should be less than  
650.

This DVD/VCR Receiver requires discs/recordings to  
meet certain technical standards in order to achieve  
optimal playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are auto-  
matically set to these standards. There are many differ-  
ent types of recordable disc formats (including CD-R  
containing MP3/WMA files). Because this area of tech-  
nology is still evolving, Toshiba cannot guarantee that  
all recordable discs will produce optimal playback quali-  
ty. The technical criteria set forth in this owner's manual  
are meant only as a guide.
