own Region Code numbers. This unit can play back  
only DVD VIDEO discs whose Region Code numbers  
include "1".  
Dolby Digital  
A surround audio format configured with six  
channels. Because the "LFE (Low-Frequency Effect for  
sub-woofer, etc.)" channel, one of the six channels, is  
an auxiliary channel, this format is called "5.1-channel  
system".  
Not all Dolby Digital discs contain six (5.1) channel  
information.  
DTS (Digital Theater Systems)  
Examples of playable DVD VIDEO discs:  
A surround audio format configured with six (5.1)  
channels which is same as Dolby Digital. Because the  
compression ratio is lower than Dolby Digital, it  
provides wider dynamic range and better separation.  
Not all DTS discs contain six (5.1) channel  
information.

Introduction  
English  
Disc structure  
Care and handling of discs  
(For DVD VIDEO)  
How to handle discs  
A DVD VIDEO disc is comprised of "titles" and each title  
may be divided into some "chapters". For example, if a  
DVD VIDEO disc contains some movies, each movie may  
have its own title number, and each movie may be  
divided into some chapters. In a DVD VIDEO KARAOKE  
disc, each song usually has its own title number and  
does not have chapters.  
When handling a disc, do not touch the surface of the  
disc. Since discs are made of plastic, they are easily  
damaged. If a disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped,  
the images and sound will not be picked up correctly,  
and such a disc may cause the player to malfunction.  
Title 1  
Title 2  
Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 1 Chapter 2  
(For Audio CD/Video CD/SVCD)  
An Audio CD, Video CD or SVCD is simply comprised of  
"tracks."  
Label side  
Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any  
adhesive on its surface.  
Track 1  
Track 2  
Track 3  
Track 4  
Storage  
Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are  
piled on top of one another without their protective  
cases, they can be damaged. Do not put discs in a  
location where they may be exposed to direct sunlight,  
or in a place where the humidity or temperature is high.  
Avoid leaving discs in your car!  
Video CDs and SVCDs with Playback  
Control function  
What is Playback Control function?  
The Playback Control function, allows you to enjoy  
menu-driven operation and high-resolution still images  
which have a resolution four times greater than moving  
pictures.  
Maintenance of discs  
If there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering to a disc,  
wipe with a soft dry cloth, moving from the center  
outwards.  
If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a cloth moistened  
with water. Never use record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or  
any anti-static agents.  
High-resolution still image display  
You can display high-quality images four times  
clearer than moving pictures.  
Menu-driven playback  
A selection menu is displayed when you start  
playing a Video CD and SVCD disc with the  
Playback Control feature. The selection menu  
shows a list of numbers for selection. Some discs  
may show moving pictures or a divided screen.  
You can interact with the screen using a menu  
display to select and play an entry.  
See example illustration below about basic feature  
of menu-driven playback (for details about PBC, see  
also page 22).  
CAUTION  
Sometimes during play images may be garbled or  
noisy. This is sometimes due to the disc.

• Connect "Y" to "Y", "PB" to "PB"(CB), "PR" to "PR"(CR) correctly.  
The unit supports the Progressive scan system(480p) as well as the conventional Interlace scan system(480i).  
If your television or monitor equipped with component jacks supports the progressive video input, you can enjoy a high  
quality picture by making the Progressive scan mode active.  
If your television equipped with component jacks does not support the progressive scan mode  
Set the Scan mode selector to "480i".  
If your television equipped with component jacks supports the progressive scan mode  
Set the Scan mode selector to "480p".  
If you want to select the scan mode between the interlace and progressive modes  
(depending on the source condition, or when connecting more than one television etc.)  
You can select the mode from the remote control unit. To do this, set the scan mode selector to "REMOTE".  
(See "To make the Progressive scan mode selection active from the remote control unit" on page 8 for details about  
how to select the scan mode from the remote control unit when the scan mode selector is set to "REMOTE".)  
NOTES  
When the scan mode is set to the progressive mode, the PROGRESSIVE indicator on the front panel is lit. The color of the  
indicator differs depending on the "PROGRESSIVE MODE" setting on the "PICTURE" preference display and the status of the unit  
(see pages 8 and 49.)  
When connecting to a TV using the VIDEO or S-VIDEO jack, make sure that the PROGRESSIVE indicator on the front panel is not  
lit. If it is lit, the VIDEO and S-VIDEO outputs do not feed the correct signals. To turn off the PROGRESSIVE indicator, set the scan  
mode selector on the rear panel to "480i". Or, while setting the scan mode selector to "REMOTE", make the Progressive scan  
mode inactive by following the procedure described on page 8.  
When the component video input jacks of the TV is of the BNC type, use an adapter to convert a pin jack to a BNC jack (optional).  
Make "ANALOG DOWN MIX" in the "AUDIO" preferences to "STEREO" (see page 51).  
If your TV has a monaural audio input instead of stereo, you need to use an optional audio cable which converts stereo audio  
output to monaural.  
To improve audio sound quality, connect the AUDIO OUT jacks to your separate audio equipment. (See the following pages.)  
If your TV has an AV COMPU LINK terminal, you can use the AV COMPU LINK function. See "AV COMPU LINK remote control  
system" on page 58 for details.  
About SCAN MODE  
To display video on the television (monitor) screen, the conventional scanning method is called "Interlaced scan".  
With this method, only half of the horizontal lines are displayed at a time. So two fields complete a single picture  
(frame); i.e., the first field, containing all the odd-numbered lines, is displayed followed by the second field, containing  
all the even-numbered lines.  
On the other hand, the Progressive scan system scans all horizontal lines at a time, so you can double the number of  
pictures compared with the interlaced scan, resulting flicker-free, high-density picture.  
Depending on the material source format, DVD VIDEO discs can be classified into two types; film source and video  
source (note that some DVD VIDEO discs contain both film source and video source). Film sources are recorded as 24-  
frame-per-second information, while (NTSC) video sources are recorded as 30-frame-per-second (60-field-per-second  
interlaced) information.  
When the unit plays back a film source material, uninterlaced progressive output signals are created using the original  
information. When a video source material is played back, the unit interleaves lines between the interlaced lines on  
each to create the interpolated picture and outputs as the progressive signal.

To connect to digital audio device  
You can enhance the sound quality by connecting either of the unit's DIGITAL OUT jacks to the digital input of an  
amplifier, MD, etc. by using an optical or a coaxal digital cable (optional). The digital audio signal from a disc is directly  
transferred. If you connect the unit to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder or an amplifier with a built-in decoder by using an  
optional digital cable, you can enjoy high-quality surround sound.  
When you make digital connection, we recommend also to make the analog connection, because, depending on discs,  
no signal may be output from the DIGITAL OUT.  
When using the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL) jack, remove the protection  
cap. Do not lose the removed cap.  
When the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL) jack is not used, fix the protection  
cap into the jack.

• For digital connection, connect the unit's DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) to the digital input of digital audio  
device using an optical or a coaxal digital cable.  
NOTES  
When you connect the unit's DIGITAL OUT to a digital audio device, before using, set "DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT" in the  
"AUDIO" preferences correctly according to the connected audio device. If "DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT" is not set correctly, loud  
noise may be generated from speakers, causing damage to them. See "DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT" on page 50.  
When you connect the unit's DIGITAL OUT to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder (or amplifier with a built-in decoder) to enjoy  
surround sound, the unit's "D. RANGE COMPRESSION" setting in the "AUDIO" preferences is invalid. Make appropriate  
surround audio settings on the decoder.  
If your digital audio device has an AV COMPU LINK terminal, you can use the AV COMPU LINK function. See "AV COMPU LINK  
remote control system" on page 58 for details  
To connect the power cord  
When all the audio/video connections have been made, insert the smaller plug of the supplied AC power cord to the  
unit's  
AC IN connector, then insert the other end to the wall outlet. Make sure that plugs are inserted firmly. The  
STANDBY indicator lights in red.  
NOTE (only for PX model)  
Use the supplied AC power plug adaptor when inserting the larger plug to the wall outlet.  
Warning  
• Disconnect the power cord if you are not going to use the unit for a long time.  
• Disconnect the power cord before cleaning the unit.  
• Disconnect the power cord before moving the unit.  
• Do not connect or disconnect the power cord with wet hands.  
• Do not pull the power cord when disconnecting it, as this may damage the cord and cause fire, electric shock, or other  
accidents.  
Caution  
• Do not alter, twist or pull the power cord, or put anything heavy on it, which may cause fire, electric shock, or other  
accidents.  
To prevent any accidents or damage caused by an unsuitable AC power cord, only use the supplied power cord. If the

The display window shows "RESUME PLAY" and the unit resumes playback from the position you interrupted  
playback.  
The unit keeps the memory for the position on a disc where you interrupted playback, even though you remove the

NOTES  
• If you change the "RESUME" setting on the "OTHERS" preference display to "OFF" or "ON" from "DISC RESUME", you cannot  
resume playback of a disc whose "resuming" position is memorized. However, if you again set "RESUME" to "DISC RESUME",  
you can resume playback of the disc.  
• If you open the tray during RESUME mode is set to ON, the "resuming" point clears.  
• The resume function cannot be performed with Audio CD, MP3 and JPEG discs.  
• In the case of a Video CD/SVCD disc with PBC function, the unit may resume playback from a point slightly earlier or later than  
the point you interrupt playback last time.  
• The unit may not resume playback exactly from the interrupted point, depending on the point.  
• For a double-sided DVD VIDEO disc, the unit regards each side as a different disc. Therefore, when resuming playback of such a  
disc, make sure to set the disc with the resumed side down.  
• When the unit memorizes the interrupted point of a disc, it also memorizes Audio, Subtitle and Angle settings (regardless of  
whether "RESUME" is set to "DISC RESUME" or "ON").  
• If you interrupt playback while the menu for a DVD VIDEO, SVCD or Video CD is shown on the TV screen, the unit may not  
memorize the interrupted position correctly, regardless of whether the "RESUME" mode is set to "ON" or "DISC RESUME".

MP3 disc playback  
The unit can play back MP3 files on a private CD-R/RW  
disc or commercial CD. We refer to a disc that contains  
MP3 file as an "MP3 disc" in this manual.  
Though available functions with MP3 discs are limited,  
operations for the available functions are similar to those  
with Audio CD discs.  
Note that, if a disc contains both of MP3 and JPEG files,  
you can only play back files of either type selected by the  
MP3/JPEG setting in the PICTURE preference  
display.(See page 50.)  
English  
English  
English  
NOTES for making a private MP3 disc  
using a CD-R/CD-RW disc:  
• Select "ISO 9660" as the disc format.  
• Finalize the disc after completing recording.  
• We recommend to record a material at 44.1-kHz Fs and  
at the 128-kbps data transfer rate.  
NOTES  
• The unit does not support "packet write" discs.  
What is MP3?  
• The unit does not support the ID3 tag.  
• If the disc is recorded with multiple sessions, the unit  
supports up to five sessions.  
"MP3" stands for "MPEG Audio Layer-3", and is the  
part of the MPEG standard. It can store high quality  
stereo audio using very little space by only saving the  
audible sounds and discarding the sounds your ears  
won't pick up. A CD can store up to around 10 hours of  
MP3 audio, which is 10 times as much as Audio CD.  
• Some discs may not be played back because of the disc  
characteristics or recording condition.  
• The unit does not output a digital audio signal from  
DIGITAL OUT when playing back a MP3 disc.  
You cannot playback Tracks in the desired (programmed)  
or random order.  
NOTE  
• The unit only can play back Tracks with any of the  
following file extensions; ".MP3", ".Mp3", ".mp3" and  
".mP3".  
Make sure that the TV - DVD switch on  
the remote control unit is set to "DVD"  
when using the 5//2/3and numeric  
buttons for controlling the unit.  
TV  
DVD  
• Time required for reading the disc contents differs with  
discs, depending on the numbers of Groups (folders) and  
Tracks (files) recorded, etc.  
About MP3 disc  
• While an MP3 disc is loaded, you cannot bring up any  
preference display. (See page 47.)  
On an MP3 disc, each material (song) is recorded on a  
file. Files are sometimes grouped into a folder by artist,  
album, category, etc. In addition, a folder can be a  
member of another folder, creating hierarchical folder  
layers. If you are familiar with a personal computer, you  
may easily understand the hierarchical file/folder  
construction of MP3 discs.  
Operations

JPEG disc playback  
The unit can play back JPEG files on a private CD-R/RW  
disc. We refer to a disc that contains JPEG files as a  
"JPEG disc" in this manual.  
Note that, if a disc contains both of MP3 and JPEG files,  
you can only play back files of either type selected by the  
MP3/JPEG setting in the PICTURE preference display  
(See page 50).  
NOTES for making a private JPEG disc  
using a CD-R/CD-RW disc:  
• Select "ISO 9660" as the disc format.  
• Finalize the disc after completing recording.  
• We recommend to record a material at "640 x 480"  
resolution.  
• The unit supports only the baseline JPEG type,  
therefore, it cannot display pictures of the other types  
(progressive and lossless). If a JPEG disc contains JPEG  
files of non-baseline type, the unit recognizes those  
files as JPEG files. the JPEG CONTROL display and the  
display window shows the information of the contents  
(filename, file number, etc.), but you cannot show the  
still pictures of those files (the TV screen appears only  
in black.)  
What is JPEG?  
"JPEG" is an abbreviation for the Joint Photographic  
Experts Group and is an image format that utilizes a  
compression technique.  
There are three sub-types of the JPEG format as  
follows.  
• baseline JPEG: used for digital cameras, web, etc.  
• progressive JPEG: used for web  
• lossless JPEG: an old type and rarely used now  
The unit supports only the baseline JPEG type,  
therefore, it cannot display pictures of the other types  
(progressive and lossless). If a JPEG disc contains  
JPEG files of non-baseline type, the unit recognizes  
those files as JPEG files, the JPEG CONTROL display  
and the display window shows the information of the  
contents (filename, file number, etc.), but you cannot  
show the still pictures of those files (the TV screen  
appears only in black.)  
NOTES  
• The unit does not support "packet write" discs.  
• If the disc is recorded with multiple sessions, the unit  
supports up to five sessions.  
• Some disc may not be played back, or take some time to  
open the whole picture because of the disc characteristics  
or recording condition.  
You cannot playback files in the desired (programmed)  
or random order.  
• The screen saver function is activated while same  
picture is displayed for more than 5 minutes except  
during slide show playback (See page 44.)  
NOTE  
Make sure that the TV - DVD switch on  
• The unit only can play back files with any of the  
following file extensions; ".jpg", ".jpeg", ".JPG",  
".JPEG" and any uppercase and lowercase combination  
(such as ".Jpg").  
the remote control unit is set to "DVD"  
when using the 5//2/3, numeric  
buttons for controlling the unit.  
TV  
DVD  
• If a JPEG file name includes any 2-byte character, the  
unit may not show the file name correctly.  
About JPEG disc  
• When a picture resolution is more than "640 x 480", it  
takes some time to open the whole picture.  
On an JPEG disc, each material (still picture) is recorded on  
a file. Files may be grouped into a folder by category, etc. In  
addition, a folder can be a member of another folder,  
creating hierarchical folder layers. If you are familiar with a  
personal computer, you may easily understand the  
hierarchical file/folder construction of JPEG discs.  
This unit simplifies the hierarchical construction of a disc  
and manages folders by "Groups" in the following  
manners.  
• Carry out an operation after opening the whole  
picture.The unit does not accept any operation  
(Stopping the unit, zooming in/out a picture etc.) while  
opening the picture.  
• Time required for reading the disc contents differs with  
discs, depending on the numbers of Groups (folders)  
and files recorded, etc.  
If you play back a non-baseline JPEG file:  
The unit cannot display the still picture of the file. (the  
TV screen appears only in black.) In this case, other  
operations (such as stopping playback, selecting a  
file,etc.) are possible but may take a long time.  
• A folder which has one or more files is regarded as a  
Group.  
• A folders' folder which does not manage any file  
directly is ignored.  
• Files which do not belong to any folder are grouped  
into "Group 1".  
• While a JPEG disc is loaded, you cannot bring up any  
preference display (See page 47.)  
• The unit recognizes up to 150 files per Group, and up  
to 99 Groups per disc. It ignores those exceeding the  
maximum numbers and cannot play back them. If  
there is any type of files other than JPEG files in a  
folder. those files are also counted down from the total  
number of 150.

Frequently Asked Questions  
Question  
Answer  
Ref. page  
Can I play back DVD VIDEO and Video CD purchased  
abroad?  
You can play back the DVD VIDEO discs with the Region  
Code (local code) containing 'ALL' or '1' recorded in the  
NTSC or PAL system (PAL disc signals are reproduced by  
converting to the NTSC system). You can also play back  
the Video CD discs recorded in the NTSC system. Please  
check the information on each disc jacket.  
4
Can I play back a DVD VIDEO disc without any Region  
Code number?  
The Region code indicates the conformity of the disc to  
the standards.  
Any DVD VIDEO not conforming to the standards cannot  
be played back.  
4
4
Can I play back a CD-R/RW disc with still pictures in other  
than the JPEG format?  
No, you cannot play back that disc.  
Can I play back audio on a disc labeled "Dolby Digital  
EX"?  
Yes, you can play back the disc because Dolby Digital EX  
is compatible with Dolby Digital. However, to get the  
maximum performance of Dolby Digital EX, we  
recommend to connect the DIGITAL OUT jack to a  
decoder or amplifier/receiver with built-in decoder that  
supports Dolby Digital EX. In this case, set "DIGITAL  
AUDIO OUTPUT" on the "AUDIO" preference display to  
"STREAM/PCM".  
50  
50  
Can I play back audio on a disc labeled "DTS ES"?  
Is there any difference in the playback settings between  
Discrete and Matrix recording systems for DTS ES?  
Though you cannot enjoy audio using the analog audio  
outputs (AUDIO OUT), you can enjoy DTS ES audio by  
connecting the DIGITAL OUT jack to a decoder or  
amplifier/receiver with built-in decoder that supports  
DTS ES. In this case, set "DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT" on  
the "AUDIO" preference display to "STREAM/PCM".  
Can this unit play back a disc labeled "THX"?  
What does "THX" mean?  
Yes you can. "THX" is a name of the original standard for  
high quality picture/audio recording and playback  
established by Lucasfilm Ltd. A disc labeled "THX" is  
certified that it passed this standard.  
When files of the MP3 and Audio CD formats are  
recorded on a same disc, can the unit play back files of  
both formats?  
The disc is of the data CD format, therefore, the unit can  
play back only files of the MP3 format.  
4, 39  
Some Dolby Digital discs contain 5.1-ch Surround or  
Dolby Surround audio data. What is the difference  
between these two types?  
Both are surround sound standards developed by Dolby  
Laboratories Inc. in the U.S.A.  
Dolby Surround records 2-channel surround audio  
information are recorded onto the analog stereo (left and  
right) channels together with front stereo audio  
information. When played back, the surround signals are  
separated by a Dolby Surround or Dolby Pro Logic  
decoder.  
4
Dolby Digital digitally encodes and records up to six  
channel information for left, right, center, rear left, rear  
right and LFE (Low-Frequency Effect for Sub-woofer etc.).  
When played back, a Dolby Digital decoder decodes data  
and outputs signals separately.  
Generally, Dolby Digital sounds better.  
When playing back a DVD VIDEO or Video CD disc,  
something like mosaic appears on the TV screen. Is this  
because of a malfunction of the unit?  
It is a block noise specific to a motion picture recorded in  
digital, and is not a malfunction of the unit.  
The unit does not function as described in this  
Instruction Manual.  
The operation of this unit may occasionally be  
unacceptable due to the intention of the disc contents  
creator and/or structural restrictions.  
Can I record DVD VIDEO data on a video tape?  
Can this unit record data?  
Most of all DVD VIDEO discs are copy-protected so that  
you cannot record DVD VIDEO data onto any video tape.

No, you cannot.
