Connections  
Without Cable Box  
ips  
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. Use the supplied round  
coaxial cable to connect between the DVD+VCR’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. 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.  
For better sound reproduction, connect the DVD+VCR’s  
DVD/VCR AUDIO OUT jack to the audio in jacks of your  
amplifier, receiver, stereo or audio/video equipment. See  
Optional, Preferred TV Connections on pages 13-14.  
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 operation.  
Caution  
To view or record CATV channel  
Make sure the DVD+VCR is connected directly to the TV.  
Tune the TV to the correct video input channel.  
Do not connect the DVD+VCR’s DVD/VCR AUDIO OUT  
jack to the phono in jack (record deck) of your audio  
system.  
1 Tune the TV to the DVD+VCR output channel (CH 3 or 4).  
2 Set the DVD+VCR channel selector to the output channel of  
the Cable Converter box by using the CH/TRK (v/V) or  
number (0-9) of your DVD+VCR. (Example: CH3)  
3 Select the channel to view at the Cable Converter Box.  
Do not connect your DVD+VCR via your VCR. The DVD  
image could be distorted by the copy protection system.  
otes  
With this connection, you CANNOT record one program  
while viewing another.  
If you are using a cable box to tune channels, it is not nec-  
essary to do Auto Channel Programming as indicated on  
page 16.

Use v/V to choose the SOURCE SELECT option,  
The DVD+VCR has two separate audio playback systems, the  
high quality VHS Hi-Fi system and standard NORMAL 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 that does not have VHS Hi-Fi.  
AUDIO MODE can be switched between HI-FI and

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 automatically selects the corresponding receiving  
mode (Stereo or SAP) regardless of the selected position. For  
normal operation, the display should be in the STEREO position.  
The DVD+VCR will then record a STEREO program when available,  
and record a mono program IF the program is NOT IN STEREO.  
For weak STEREO and/or SAP broadcasts, changing the dis-  
play to mono may give clearer sound.  
After the AUTO CHANNEL SET

possible, thanks to digital audio technology. However,  
you may wish to compress the dynamic range of the

and the quietest ones). Then, you may listen to a movie  
at a lower volume without losing clarity of sound. Set

About MP3  
CD  
MP3  
WMA  
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 player can not read an MP3 file that has a file  
extension other than “.mp3”.  
The DVD Player can play MP3/WMA formatted record-  
ings on CD-ROM, CD-R or CD-RW discs.  
Before playing MP3/WMA recordings, read the notes on  
MP3/WMA Recordings on right.  
Insert a disc and close the tray.

About WMA (Window Media Audio)

A WMA file is made using Microsoft audio  
compression technology.  
WMA (Windows Media Audio) offers double the audio  
compression of the MP3 format.

MP3/WMA Disc compatibility with this player is  
limited as follows:  
Use 3/4to select the MP3/WMA then press  
SELECT/ENTER.  
The MP3/WMA menu appears on the TV screen.  
Press RETURN to move to the MP3/WMA-JPEG  
choice menu.

2. Bit rate / within 32 - 320kbps (MP3),  
32 - 128kbps (WMA)  
2
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.
