Notes on playing DTS sound tracks on a CD

• Do not play DTS sound tracks without first connecting the

player to an audio component having a built-in DTS decoder.

The player outputs the DTS signal via the DIGITAL OUT

OPTICAL and COAXIAL connectors even if “DTS” in “AUDIO

SETUP” is set to “OFF” in the setup display, and may affect

your ears or cause your speakers to be damaged.

./>

• Set the sound to “STEREO” when you play DTS sound tracks

on a CD. (See “Changing the Sound” on page 32.) If you set

the sound to “1/ L” or “2/ R”, no sound will come from the

DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL and COAXIAL connectors.

• If you play a CD with a DTS sound track, a loud noise may

come out from the AUDIO OUT connectors, affecting your ears

or causing the speakers to be damaged.

Notes on playing DTS sound tracks on a DVD

The signals of the DTS sound tracks are output from the

DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL and COAXIAL connectors only. No

sound will be output from the AUDIO OUT connectors.

• If the player is connected to an audio component lacking a

built-in DTS decoder, do not set “DTS” in “DIGITAL OUT” to

“ON” in the setup display. Otherwise, when you play the DTS

sound track, a loud noise will come out from the speakers,

affecting your ears or causing the speakers to be damaged.

• When you set “DTS” in “AUDIO SETUP” to “OFF”, no sound

will come out from the DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL and

COAXIAL connectors even if you play DTS sound tracks on

DVDs.

Notes

If the DVD is recorded with multilingual tracks, you can

select the language you want while playing the DVD.

If the DVD is recorded in multiple audio formats (PCM,

Dolby Digital, MPEG or DTS), you can select the audio

format you want while playing the DVD.

With multiplex CDs or VIDEO CDs, you can select the

sound from the right or left channel and listen to the

sound of the selected channel through both the right and

left speakers. In this case, the sound loses its stereo effect.

For example, with a disc containing a song, the right

channel may output the vocals and the left channel may

output the instrumental. If you only want to hear the

instrumental, you can select the left channel and hear it

from both speakers.

• Depending on the DVD, you may not be able to change the

languages even if multilingual tracks are recorded on the DVD.

• While playing the CD/ VIDEO CD, standard stereo playback

will be resumed when:

–

you open or close the disc tray

the player enters standby mode by pressing @/ 1 on the

remote

–

you turn the power off by pressing ! on the player

• While playing the DVD, the sound may be changed when:

–

you open or close the disc tray

you change the title

• If “DTS” is set to “OFF” in “AUDIO SETUP,” the DTS track

selection option will not appear on the screen even if the disc

contains DTS tracks.

Bit ra t e (p a g e 38)

DVD (p a g e 4)

Value indicating the amount of video data compressed in

a DVD per second. The unit is Mbps (Mega bit per

second). 1 Mbps indicates that the data per second is

1,000,000 bits. The higher the bit rate, the larger the

amount of data. However, this does not always mean that

you can get higher quality pictures.

A disc that contains up to 8 hours of moving pictures even

though its diameter is the same as a CD.

The data capacity of a single-layer and single-sided DVD

is 4.7 GB (Giga Byte) which is 7 times that of a CD. The

data capacity of a dual-layer and single-sided DVD is 8.5

GB, a single-layer and double-sided DVD is 9.4 GB, and a

dual-layer and double-sided DVD is 17 GB.

Ch a p t e r (p a g e 5)

The picture data uses the MPEG 2 format, one of the

worldwide standards of digital compression technology.

The picture data is compressed to about 1/ 40 of its

original size. The DVD also uses a variable rate coding

technology that changes the data to be allocated according

to the status of the picture.

Sections of a picture or a music piece on a DVD that are

smaller than titles. A title is composed of several chapters.

Each chapter is assigned a chapter number enabling you

to locate the chapter you want.

Dig it a l Cin e m a So u n d (DCS) (p a g e 36)

Audio data is recorded in Dolby Digital as well as in

PCM, allowing you to enjoy a more real audio presence.

Furthermore, various advanced functions such as the

multi-angle, multilingual, and Parental Control functions

are provided with the DVD.

The general name of technology that Sony developed to

enjoy surround sound in a home. It simulates the sound

of a movie editing studio instead of the usual concert hall

so that you can enjoy the surround sound of a movie

theater in the comfort of your own home. The VES

(Virtual Enhanced Surround) system contained in DCS

programs can create the sound image of virtual rear

speakers from the sound of the front speakers (L, R)

without using actual rear speakers.

MPEG a u d io (p a g e 14)

International standard coding system used to compress

audio digital signals authorized by ISO/ IEC. MPEG 1

conforms to up to 2-channel stereo. MPEG 2 used on

DVDs conforms to up to 7.1-channel surround.

Do lb y Dig it a l (p a g e s 11, 56)

Digital audio compression technology developed by

Dolby Laboratories. This technology conforms to 5.1-

channel surround sound. The rear channel is stereo and

there is a discrete subwoofer channel in this format.

Dolby Digital provides the same 5.1 discrete channels of

high quality digital audio found in Dolby Digital cinema

audio systems. Good channel separation is realized

because all of the channel data is recorded discretely and

processed in digital.

Mu lt i-a n g le fu n ct io n (p a g e 35)

Various angles for the scene (viewpoints of the video

camera) are recorded on some DVDs.

Mu lt ilin g u a l fu n ct io n (p a g e s 16, 34, 49)

Several languages for the audio track or sub-titles in a

picture are recorded on some DVDs.

Pa re n t a l Co n t ro l (p a g e 52)

A function of the DVD used to limit playback of the disc

according to the age of the user and 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.

Do lb y Pro Lo g ic (p a g e 56)

Audio signal processing technology that Dolby

Laboratories developed for surround sound. When the

input signal contains a surround component, the Pro

Logic process outputs the front, center and rear signals.

The rear channel is monaural.

Pla yb a ck Co n t ro l (PBC) (p a g e 23)

DTS (p a g e s 14, 57)

Signals encoded on VIDEO CDs (Version 2.0) to control

playback.

By using menus recorded on VIDEO CDs with PBC

functions, you can enjoy playing simple interactive

programs, programs with search functions, and so on.

Digital audio compression technology that Digital Theater

Systems, Inc. developed. This technology conforms to 5.1-

channel surround. The rear channel is stereo and there is

a discrete subwoofer channel in this format. DTS provides

the same 5.1 discrete channels of high quality digital

audio. Good channel separation is realized because all of

the channel data is recorded discretely and processed in

digital.

Glo ssa ry

Tit le (p a g e 5)

The longest section of a picture or a music piece on a

DVD; a movie, etc., for a picture piece on video software;

or an album, etc., for a music piece on audio software.

Each title is assigned a title number enabling you to locate

the title you want.

Tra ck (p a g e 5)

Sections of a picture or a music piece on a CD or VIDEO

CD. Each track is assigned a track number enabling you to

locate the track you want.

VIDEO CD (p a g e 4)

A compact disc that contains moving pictures.

The picture data uses the MPEG 1 format, one of the

worldwide standards 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.

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.

There are 2 versions of VIDEO CDs.

• Version 1.1: You can play only moving pictures and

sounds.

• Version 2.0: You can play high-resolution still pictures

and enjoy PBC functions.

This player conforms to both versions.
