Caring for Optical Discs
Handling of Discs:
Please hold the disc by gripping the rim or by placing the index finger in the
central hole. Never touch the signal surface, which is shiny. This applies to
both sides of double sided discs.
Cleaning of Discs:
Finger prints or stains on the surface of the disc may cause signal loss.
Depending on the degree of the stain, the reflected luminosity from the signal
surface may be weakened, resulting in degraded picture quality. Therefore,
please use a soft cloth and wipe in a radiating manner from the center of the
disc to the outer rims when cleaning the disc surface.
Labeling Side
Surface
Labels
If the surface of your disc is very dirty, please wipe the disc with a moist cloth,
followed by a dry soft cloth to remove all water stains.
Never use electrostatic prevention products or solutions which contain
benzene, thinner or any other vaporizing substances, as they may damage
the disc surface.
Tapes
Never add labels or adhesive tapes on the discs and be careful not to
scratch or damage the disc surface.
Storage of Discs:
To prevent discs from becoming bent or deformed, they should be vertically
kept in the disc storage case. To prevent damage, avoid leaving discs in your
car, where they may be subject to direct sunlight and high temperature.
Please thoroughly read the "Instruction Points for Attention" on the discs.
Cleaning the DVD Player:
The control panel and the case of the player will only require occasional wiping with a soft cloth. Areas with
stubborn stains can be cleaned with a soft cloth dipped in a neutral detergent. To prevent damaging the player,
never use vaporizing solutions.
Disc Accessories:
Do not use any disc accessory to improve the audio quality, disc protective solutions or lens cleaner. These
products may cause problems.

Connecting the DVD Player to your TV /Receiver
Determining the Video & Audio Connections You Will Use
The first step to using your new DVD Player is to make the cable connections that will allow you to see the video
and hear the audio on your TV and optional Stereo Receiver. Your DVD Player has multiple Video and Audio
outputs. Generally, you will only use one Video and one Audio output and any one time. The type of outputs you
use will be determined by the capabilities of your Television or receiver. It is recommended that you use the highest
quality output that your TV or receiver will support.
Television Connections (One Required)
In order to use your DVD Player, your TV must support at least one of the Video Input types shown below. To get
started, identify the best Video Connection shown below that your TV offers and proceed to that section. If you are
using your TV’s speakers for audio, rather than a separate receiver or amplifier, you will use the Stereo Audio In,
outlined in sections 1 and 2.

Receiver/Speaker Connections (Optional)
To enjoy the Dolby and/or DTS Digital Surround Sound most DVD movies are presented in, you’ll need a 5.1
Channel Sound System. Whether you choose an inexpensive, self-powered 5.1 Channel Speaker System, or a
more advanced setup with a Digital Receiver powering a set of High-Performance Speakers, your player provides
the outputs required. The 5.1 Channel Analog outputs can connect directly to a 5.1 Channel Speaker System (the
most economical method) or a Dolby-Ready Receiver. For the ultimate in Digital Audio, use the player’s Optical or
CoAxial Digital Audio outputs with a Digital Receiver powering high-performance Speakers.

Composite /S-Video & Stereo Audio Connections
1
Typical Connection - Connecting to a TV with Composite Video In and Stereo Audio In
If your TV has only a single Video Input jack, typically a yellow-colored plug, you will use the Composite Video output
of the DVD Player for the Video Connection. We’ll also assume your TV has Red and White Stereo Audio In
connectors. You will use these for the Audio Connection.
Use the included Video Cable (Yellow) to connect the Video Out of the DVD Player to the Video In of your TV.
Connect the Stereo Audio outputs (Red-Red, White-White) of the DVD Player to the matching Inputs of your TV.
Connect the Power Cord to the DVD Player and AC Power Outlet.
Turn on the TV and DVD Player (power switch on back) and select the Video Input on your TV. On some models,
this may be called “Input 1” or “Aux In”. You should now see the DVD Player’s splash screen on your TV.
Change the ANALOG Setting in the DVD Player’s Setup Menu to 2CH. (See pg 40)

Connecting to a TV with S-Video In and Stereo Audio In
If your TV has an S-Video Input, it’s recommended that you use this connection. S-Video separates brightness and
color signals, resulting in higher video quality than Standard Composite Video.
You must purchase a separate S-Video Cable for this connection (not included).
Connect the S-Video Out from the DVD Player to the S-Video In of your TV.
If you are not using a separate receiver for audio, connect the Stereo Audio outputs (Red - Red, White - White) of
the DVD Player to the corresponding Inputs of your TV
S-Video Connector
Connect the Power Cord to the DVD Player and AC Power Outlet.
Turn on the TV and DVD Player (power switch on back) and select the S-Video Input on your TV. On some

Connecting to a TV with Component Video Inputs
Component Video separates the Video Signal into three separate “components”, resulting in a higher
quality picture than S-Video or Standard Composite Video. In order to use Component Video, you
must use a TV equipped with Component Video Inputs. You’ll also need (3) Component Video Cables
(not included) and a Composite (included) or S-Video Cable used for setup only.

Using the Dolby/DTS 5.1 Channel Analog Outputs
Your DVD Player also features a set of 5.1 Channel Outputs for Dolby Ready Receivers,Amplifiers and Speaker
Systems. When you use the 5.1 Channel Outputs, you’re taking advantage of the DVD Player’s built-in Dolby
Decoder, which decodes the Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack on DVD discs to 6 separate analog signals - left front,
center front, right front, left rear, right rear, and a sub-woofer (”.1”) channel.
You must purchase a separate set of 5.1 Channel connectors (normally included with Speaker Systems).
Connect each of the (6) outputs to the corresponding Input of your Receiver,Amplifier or Speaker System.
For Receivers, adjust the Input Source Setting to correspond with the 5.1 Channel Analog Input.
Make sure the ANALOG Setting in the DVD Player’s Setup Menu is set to 5.1CH. (See pg 40)

Using the Optical and CoAxial Digital Audio Output Connections
Your DVD Player features two DigitalAudio Outputs to provide the ultimate in realism for your Home Theater
experience. Use this option to get the most out of discs recorded with Dolby 5.1 Digital Surround Sound or Digital
Theater System (DTS) by sending the encoded, or “RAW” digital audio signal to your Receiver for decoding. You will
only use one Digital Audio Output, depending on which is supported by your receiver or amplifier. You must be using a
Digital Receiver with 5.1 Channel Decoding and an Optical or CoAxial Digital Input to take advantage of this feature.
You must purchase a separate Coaxial or Optical Digital Audio Cable for these connections, as these cables are
not included with the DVD Player.
Connect the Optical or Coaxial Digital Audio Out of the DVD Player to the corresponding Input of your Receiver.
Adjust your Receiver’s Input Source Setting to the correspond with the Digital Audio In.

Getting Started - Powering On &Playing a Disc
After Video and Audio Cables are Connected and Power is Applied
Once the DVD Player is properly connected to your TV and possibly your receiver also, turn on your TV and make
sure it’s set to the correct input channel. The video input is usually configured as channel 0 or 1 on most TVs, but
may be referred to as “Input 1” or “Aux In” or similar names. These procedures assume you are using a NTSC-
compatible TV - standard for North and South America. If you are using a PAL-type, you will need to change the TV
Type first. In this case, see pg 39 - Video Setup Options.

Introduction to File Copyand Disc Duplication
Duplicate Discs, Copy Files and Record to MPEG format on the Fly
Along with supporting the latest DVD Playback functions, this unit also features a CD-RW Drive and On-Screen
Burner Interface that allow for a variety of Disc Copy functions for use with CD-R/RW discs:
Disc Copy
Erase
Duplicate discs of 700MB or less capacity. Disc
formats supported include CD-ROM, CDDA,

Erase takes only 1 minute. Use Full Erase to
completely wipe-out sensitive data.
File / Track Copy
Copy selected files or tracks from CD-ROM,
MP3, JPG and Audio CDs to CD-R/RW discs.
CD-R/RW Supported Disc Formats

TITLE
DISC COPY
1
The Title indicates the type of media that has been
detected in the source (DVD) drive - MEDIA, for MP3 or
,JPG discs, or DATACD.
Creates a duplicate of the source disc. It is recommended
to use DISC COPY, rather than selecting files to copy,
whenever possible. This is because by copying an entire
disc, extended information such as long file names is
preserved. For Data CDs, this is the only option available.
TRACK/FILE LIST
2
Lists the Tracks, Files and Folders on certain types of
discs. With an Audio CD disc inserted, tracks will be listed.
With JPG or MP3 discs, files and folders are shown.
Individual files are not displayed with Data CDs.
QUICK ERASE
8
The fastest way to free up a CD-RW disc for recording, this
procedure only requires one minute to complete. This
method erases only the Table of Contents of the disc,
making the disc appear empty and allowing its data to be
over-written. *If you wish to actually erase all the data on a
disc, use FULL ERASE.

Displays the Disc Type and Free Space. While recording,
shows the progress of the current copy operation in

DISC USAGE INDICATOR BAR
To make sure that all data on a disc is completely
destroyed, use the FULL ERASE method. This procedure
takes about ten minutes to complete - much longer than
QUICK ERASE - and is generally used only for discs
containing sensitive data.
When a disc is inserted, the Disc Usage Indicator will show
a graphical representation of the amount of disc space
used, using the colors white (blank), green (small
percentage of space used) and red (large percentage of
space used). Also, when selecting files to copy, this bar will
show a preview of the disc space that will be used for each
file selected.

Erasing a CD-RW Disc
Easily Free-Up Space on CD-RW Discs Using the On-Screen Burner Interface
CD-RW discs are convenient to use as data storage due to their “Re-Writable” properties. This means that data can
be written to a disc, then erased, so new data can take its place. To support this feature, this unit’s On-Screen Burner
Interface provides two ways to erase data on CD-RW discs:
Quick Erase
The fastest way to free up a CD-RW disc for recording, this procedure only requires one minute to complete.
This method erases only the Table of Contents of the disc, making the disc appear empty and allowing its data
to be over-written. *If you wish to actually erase all the data on a disc, use FULL ERASE.
Full Erase
To make sure that all data on a disc is completely destroyed, use the FULL ERASE method. This procedure
takes about ten minutes to complete - much longer than QUICK ERASE - and is generally used only for discs
containing sensitive data.

About Multi-Session Discs
Compatibility Information for Discs with Multiple Sessions
Data is recorded onto CD-R/RW discs in units knows as “sessions”. A session consists of information regarding the
contents of the recording, the actual data, and closing information. Using this unit, a session is created when any of
the following operations are performed:
Making a Disc Copy of a Single Session Disc
Pressing REC in the Burner Interface to copy selected files
Quick Tips
Once a session exists on a disc, any subsequent copying or recording
operations on the same disc will result in a new session being added,
thereby creating a “multi-session” disc.
Be sure to keep these
compatibility issues in mind
when working with CD-R and
CD-RW discs that are
destined for play on standard
DVD players.
In particular, remember that
selecting the RECORD Icon
and copying files or tracks
will create and close a
session. So, if you wish to
make a single-session disc,
select ALL the files you wish
to copy BEFORE recording.
Although multi-function discs are fully supported by this unit, most DVD
players and many other types of optical drive products have compatibility
issues and limitations regarding multi-session discs. Some common
problems are:
Only the first session is playable on some DVD Players
Only the last session is playable on PCs
On some DVD Players, multiple sessions may be supported in certain
configurations - such as where the same type of data is contained in
each session - but “mixed mode” discs, where different sessions do not
contain the same type of data, are not supported.

Resetting to the Player’s Default Video Settings
Make sure to use caution when changing the SYSTEM and OUTPUT settings. If the value selected is not
compatible with your Television, you may no longer be able to see the screen. If this happens, follow the
procedures below to reset the player’s settings to default.
Turn the DVD Player off using the power switch on the back of the unit.
After a few seconds, power the player on and OPEN THE DISC TRAY.
Enter one of the following codes on the remote control depending on your TV type:
NTSC (USA): STOP - 2 - 0 - 0 - 2
PAL (Europe): STOP - 2 - 0 - 0 - 3
The player is now reset to COMPOSITE Video Out and the TV SYSTEM you specified.
ASPECT - 4:3 PS / 4:3 LB / 16:9 WS
You can setup your DVD Player to work with normal and wide screen televisions. If you are using a wide screen TV,
set this option to 16:9 WS to match the aspect ratio of your TV. When used with a normal TV (4:3 aspect ratio), the
4:3 PS setting results in the typical “Pan & Scan” display, where a movie is clipped on the sides to fit on the TV
screen. The 4:3 LB setting will enable the “Letterbox” format, where the movie is presented in wide screen format
with black lines at the top and bottom of the screen.
OUTPUT - COMPOSITE / S-VIDEO / YCbCr
Change this setting to match the type of video input jack you are using on your TV.
Composite Video is the most common video connection type and is supported on most TVs. S-Video is a higher
quality video signal that is separated into brightness and color channels. YCbCr, or COMPONENT video is used for
TVs, Computer Monitors and Projectors that support three video inputs, one for a color channel (Yellow, Blue, Red).

compression in three levels: MAXIMUM - Highest compression, STANDARD - Normal compression, and TV MODE -
Optimized for smaller speakers.
BASS - OFF / SMALL / LARGE
You can tailor the bass response of your Sub-Woofer different room sizes with the BASS setting. The options are:
OFF - No additional processing of the sub-woofer signal, SMALL - Adjusts the sub-woofer output for small rooms,
and LARGE - Adjusts the sub-woofer output for large rooms.

Troubleshooting Common Problems
The DVD Player Does Not Power On
The AC Power cord may be loose or not plugged in. Make sure the power cord is secure in the AC socket and
the connector on the back of the player.
The unit may be in Standby Mode. Turn the player on with the remote POWER button, or turn the unit off with
the back power switch, wait for a few seconds, then turn the unit back on.
There must be a pause between powering the unit down and back on of a few seconds.
A Specific Disc Does Not Play
The disc may be dirty. Try cleaning the disc.
Make sure the disc is not in upside-down
The region code of the disc may not match that of the player. In this case, the disc cannot be used.
The Remote Control Does Not Function
Make sure you’re aiming the remote directly at the player’s remote sensor, located in the front display.
Make sure there are no obstacles between the remote and the player.
The batteries may be drained. Try changing the batteries in the remote.
You could be using the remote too far away. Try within 4 meters of the player.
There is No Picture on the TV Screen
Make sure the connections from the player to the TV are secure.
Verify that the TV’s channel is set to match the video input you’re using. Refer to the TV’s documentation.
On most TVs the “Aux In”, “Video In” or “A/V In” channel should match the video input connector.
If you’re using the S-Video connector, the TV may have a separate input channel for this type.
The Picture Appears Stretched or Squeezed
The Video Aspect Ratio may be set wrong for your Television type.
Enter the Setup Menu and select the Video Menu. Try changing theASPECT setting to 4:3 PS (Pan&Scan) if
you are using a standard TV, or 16:9 WS if your TV is a Wide-Screen type.
The Disc Doesn’t Eject
If the player is in Standby Mode, the disc will not eject. Turn the player on with the Remote Control and then
eject the disc.
No Sound from TV or Speakers
If the DTS soundtrack is enabled in the DVD Disc Menu, but you are using Stereo Analog audio, the sound will
not work. Try switching the soundtrack to Dolby/DTS 5.1 or PCM mode in the Disc Menu.
If you are using a Digital Receiver, check the Dolby/DTS setting in the player’s Setup Menu (pg 40).
Make sure the audio cables connecting the DVD player to your TV or receiver are secure.
The movie is paused. There is no sound during Pause or Search modes.
Sound From Only Left/Right Front Speakers of 5.1 Channel System
If you’re using the 5.1 Channel Analog Outputs, check theANALOG setting in the DVD Player’s Setup Menu
(pg 40). This setting should be set to 5.1CH.
Use the MENU key to enter the disc’s menu and check that the Audio Setup is set to Dolby/DTS 5.1 Audio.
Make sure the DIGITAL setting is on DOLBY/DTS in the Player Setup Menu. (See pg 40)
Distorted Picture when Connected to a VCR
