TV Aspect
• Default setting: 16:9 Wide
If you have a widescreen TV, select the 16:9 Wide
setting—widescreen DVD software is then shown
using the full screen area. When playing software
recorded in conventional (4:3) format, the
settings on your TV will determine how the
material is presented—see the manual that came
with your TV for details on what options are
available. If your TV does not have settings for how
4:3 sources look, choose the 16:9 Squeeze
setting. The picture you see on your TV will be
determined by the disc. See page 34 for more
information.
If you have a conventional TV, choose either 4:3 L-
Box or 4:3 Pan Scan. In Letter Box mode,
widescreen software is shown with black bars at
the top and bottom of the screen. Pan & Scan
chops the sides off widescreen material to make it
fit the 4:3 screen (so even though the picture
looks larger on the screen, you’re actually seeing
less of the movie).
Note
• Some discs will not allow you to change the
aspect ratio.

SCART Video Out
• Default setting: Interlace
(Europe Model only)
Compared to a standard interlaced TV picture, a
progressive scan TV is capable of stable, flicker-
free images.
• Default setting: Video
These settings are only applicable if you’re using the
A/V EURO CONNECTOR SCART-type connector.
Set only if you connected the COMPONENT
VIDEO OUT to a progressive scan-compatible TV
or monitor.
Important
If you make a setting here that is incompatible with
your TV, the TV may not display any picture at all.
If this happens either switch everything off and
reconnect to the TV using either the supplied
composite video cable, or an S-Video cable (see
pages 10-11 for more on this), or reset the unit
(see page 47 for how to do this).
• Progressive – Use this setting with TVs and
monitors that have progressive scan component
video inputs. Check the TV’s instruction manual
if you are not sure about this.
• Interlace – Use this setting with regular TVs
that are not compatible with progressive scan.
Check the TV’s instruction manual if you are
not sure about this.
• Video – Compatible with all TVs, but lowest
quality of the three AV settings.
• S-Video – Almost the same quality as RGB, but
can give better results if you are using a long
SCART cable.
Tip
If this player is set to output progressive-scan
video, it’s possible that the picture will appear
stretched when playing discs recorded in 4:3
format. This happens when the TV’s aspect ratio is
set to ‘Full’. To see the picture in its correct aspect
ratio, change the TV setting to ‘Normal’.
• RGB – If your TV is compatible, this setting
gives the best picture quality.
If your TV doesn’t have settings to change the
aspect ratio of the picture, set this player to 16:9
Squeeze.
Note
• If you connect a TV that is not compatible with
a progressive scan signal and choose one of the
progressive scan settings, you will not be able
to see any picture at all. With your TV con-
nected using either the composite or S-Video
terminals, choose the Interlace setting in the
Component Video menu.
• Compatibility of this unit with progressive-scan
TVs:
Note that not all high definition television sets
are fully compatible with this unit and may
cause artifacts to be displayed in the picture. In
case of progressive scan picture problems, try
switching the connection to the “STANDARD

Audio Out
Note
• Default setting: 2 Channel (Stereo)
• Even if you set Audio Out to 5.1 Channel,
you’ll only get sound from all speakers when
playing a multi-channel DVD-Audio disc, multi-
channel Super Audio CD disc, Dolby Digital or
DTS encoded DVD disc.
If you connected this player to your amplifier using
the 5.1 channel analog outputs (front, surround,
center and subwoofer outs), set this to 5.1
Channel; if you connected only the stereo
outputs, set to 2 Channel (Stereo).
• Set Digital Out (page 39) to Bitstream for
Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1 channel analog
output.
• 2 Channel (Lt/Rt)
Used to specify that DTS multi-channel input
or Dolby Digital multi-channel input is to be
downmixed into a format compatible with the
Dolby Surround matrix format. This option may
be selected to enjoy surround sound when the
player is connected to Dolby Surround-
compatible AV amplifier.
• Set Digital Out (page 39) to Off for DVD
Audio 192/176.4/96/88.2 kHz Hi Sampling
and 5.1 channel analog output.
• When you set it to 5.1 Channel, the overall
output level may sound quieter than when set
to 2 Channel (Stereo, Lt/Rt) or TruSurround.
• If you set to 2 Channel (Stereo), 2 Channel
(Lt/Rt), TruSurround, Dolby Digital and DTS
are mixed down to two channels so you still
hear all the audio recorded on the disc.
• TruSurround
If you connected your DVD player using only
the stereo analog outputs, you can simulate
surround sound.
• Some DVD-Audio discs don’t allow down-
mixing of audio. These discs always output
multi-channel audio regardless of the setting
made here.
Note
• Works with DVD-Video and VCD only.
• The digital audio output is processed by
TruSurround when playing 2 channel Dolby
Digital DVDs or Video CDs with TruSurround. It
is recommended that Audio Out is set to 2
channel (stereo or Lt/Rt) when connecting
the player to your amp using a coaxial or
optical connection.
• Change can be made only in the stop mode.
When RESUME is indicated on the display, put
the player in the STOP mode by pressing 7
(STOP) button.
• How good the surround effect is varies with the
disc.
• When TruSurround is selected, the audio can
be output only for the L/R channels on the
Front.
SRS TruSurround
SRS TruSurround uses technology that simulates
multichannel surround sound using only two
speakers.

Audio DRC
• Default setting: Off
When watching Dolby Digital DVDs at low volume,
it’s easy to lose the low level sounds completely,
including some of the dialog. Switching on Audio
DRC (Dynamic Range Compression) can help
things by bringing up the low level sounds, while
keeping the lid on high level peaks.
The Off setting leaves the original dynamics intact;
On ‘squashes’ the dynamics; but exactly how much
difference you can hear between the settings will
depend on the material you’re watching.
Remember
• Audio DRC is only effective with Dolby Digital
audio sources.
• The effect of Audio DRC depends on your
speakers and AV amplifier settings.

is not a malfunction.
The DVD format recognizes 136 different lan-
guages. Choose Others if you want to specify a
language other than those listed, then follow the

Handling discs
Discs to avoid
When holding discs of any type, take care not to
leave fingerprints, dirt or scratches on the disc
surface. Hold the disc by its edge or by the center
hole and edge.
Discs spin at high speed inside the player. If you
can see that a disc is cracked, chipped, warped, or
otherwise damaged, don't risk using it in your
player—you could end up damaging the unit.
This unit is designed for use with conventional,
fully circular discs only. Use of shaped discs is not
recommended for this product.
Damaged or dirty discs can affect playback
performance. Take care also not to scratch the
label side of the disc. Although not as fragile as
the recorded side, scratches can still result in a
disc becoming unusable.
Should a disc become marked with fingerprints,
dust, etc., clean using a soft, dry cloth, wiping the
disc lightly from the center to the outside edge as
shown in the diagram below.
Cleaning the pickup lens
The DVD player’s lens should not become dirty in
normal use, but if for some reason it should
malfunction due to dust or dirt, consult your
nearest MARANTZ-authorized service center.
Although lens cleaners for CD players are commer-
cially available, we do not recommend using them
since some may damage the lens.
Don’t wipe the disc surface
using circular strokes.
Wipe lightly from the
center of the disc using
straight strokes.
If necessary, use a cloth soaked in alcohol, or a
commercially available CD/DVD cleaning kit to
clean a disc more thoroughly. Never use benzine,
thinner or other cleaning agents, including
products designed for cleaning vinyl records.
Problems with condensation
Condensation may form inside the player if it is
brought into a warm room from outside, or if the
temperature of the room rises quickly. Although
the condensation won’t damage the player, it may
temporarily impair its performance. For this reason
you should leave it to adjust to the warmer
temperature for about an hour before switching on
and using.
Storing discs
Although CDs and DVD discs are more durable
than vinyl records, you should still take care to
handle and store discs correctly. When you're not
using a disc, return it to its case and store upright.
Avoid leaving discs in excessively cold, humid, or
hot environments (including under direct sun-
light).
Don't glue paper or put stickers onto the disc, or
use a pencil, ball-point pen or other sharp-tipped
writing instrument. These could all damage the
disc.
For more detailed care information see the
instructions that come with discs.
Do not load more than one disc into the player.

Hints on installation
Moving the player
We want you to enjoy using this unit for years to
come, so please bear in mind the following points
when choosing a suitable location for it:
If you need to move the player, first press POWER
ON/STANDBY button on the front panel to turn
the player off, then unplug the power cord. Never
lift or move the unit during playback—discs rotate
at a high speed and may be damaged.
Do...
✓ Use in a well-ventilated room.
✓ Place on a solid, flat, level surface, such as a
Power cord caution
table, shelf or stereo rack.
Handle the power cord by the plug part. Do not
pull out the plug by tugging the cord, and never
touch the power cord when your hands are wet, as
this could cause a short circuit or electric shock.
Do not place the unit, a piece of furniture, or
other object on the power cord or pinch the cord
in any other way. Never make a knot in the cord or
tie it with other cords. The power cords should be
routed so that they are not likely to be stepped
on. A damaged power cord can cause a fire or give
you an electric shock. Check the power cord once
in a while. If you find it damaged, ask your nearest
MARANTZ authorized service center or your
dealer for a replacement.
Don’t...
✗ Use in a place exposed to high temperatures or
humidity, including near radiators and other
heat-generating appliances.
✗ Place on a window sill or other place where the
player will be exposed to direct sunlight.

Additional Information
Dynamic range
Glossary
The difference between the quietest and loudest
sounds possible in an audio signal (without
distorting or getting lost in noise). Dolby Digital
and DTS soundtracks are capable of a very wide
dynamic range, delivering dramatic cinema-like
effects.
Analog audio
An electrical signal that directly represents sound.
Compare this to digital audio which can be an
electrical signal, but is an indirect representation
of sound. See also Digital audio.
Aspect ratio
File extension
The width of a TV screen relative to its height.
Conventional TVs are 4:3 (in other words, the
screen is almost square); widescreen models are
16:9 (the screen is almost twice as wide as it is
high).
A tag added to the end of a filename to indicate
the type of file. For example, “.mp3” indicates an
MP3 file.
Group (DVD-Audio only)
A collection of tracks on a DVD-Audio disc.
Equivalent to a DVD-Video title. See also Title and
Track.
Bonus Group (DVD-Audio only)
An ‘extra’ group on some DVD-Audio discs that
requires a key number to access. See also Group.
HDCP
Browsable pictures (DVD-Audio only)
A feature of some DVD-Audio discs in which the
user can browse still pictures recorded on the disc
as the audio is played. See also Slideshow.
HDCP is the acronym for High-bandwidth Digital
Content Protection.
It is an encrypting method for DVI-use images and
its purpose is the protection of image content
against illegal copying. Receiving the encrypted
signals requires a display with HDCP-compatible
DVI input.
Chapter (DVD-Video, DVD-RW)
Just as a book is split up into several chapters, a
title on a DVD disc is usually divided into chapters.
See also Title.
HDMI
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is an
interface that expands DVI for next-generation
digital audiovisual devices.
Digital audio
An indirect representation of sound by numbers.
During recording, the sound is measured at
discrete intervals (44,100 times a second for CD
audio) by an analog-to-digital converter, generat-
ing a stream of numbers. On playback, a digital-to-
analog converter generates an analog signal based
on these numbers. See also Sampling frequency and
Analog audio.
HDMI terminals can simultaneously transmit
uncompressed digital images and the digital audio
signals of Dolby Digital DTS, Linear PCM, etc.
Interlaced video
A method of displaying a picture in which odd-
numbered lines are updated in one pass, then
even-numbered lines updated in the next. See also
Progressive scan video.
Dolby Digital
1
MP3
Using a maximum of 5.1 channels of audio, this
high quality surround system is used in many of
the finer movie theaters around the world.
MP3 (MPEG1 audio layer 3) is a compressed
audio file format. Files are recognized by their file
extension “.mp3” or “.MP3”.
DTS
MPEG audio
R
An audio format used on Video CDs and some
DVD discs. This unit can convert MPEG audio to
PCM format for wider compatibility with digital
recorders and AV amplifiers. See also PCM.
DTS stands for Digital Theater System. DTS is a
surround system different from Dolby Digital that
has become a popular surround sound format for
movies.

MPEG video
Regions (DVD-Video only)
The video format used for Video CDs and DVDs.
Video CDs uses the older MPEG-1 standard, while
DVD uses the newer and much better quality
MPEG-2 standard.
These associate discs and players with particular
areas of the world. This unit will only play discs
that have compatible region codes. You can find
the region code of your unit by looking on the rear
panel. Some discs are compatible with more than
one region (or all regions).
Multi-session
A CD-R/RW that contains two or more ‘sessions’.
Each session is a complete recording process, so
each session is read as a complete disc. This player
can only read the first session on a disc.
Sampling frequency
The rate at which sound is measured to be turned
into digital audio data. The higher the rate, the
better the sound quality, but the more digital
information is generated. Standard CD audio has a
sampling frequency of 44.1kHz, which means
44,100 samples (measurements) per second. See
also Digital audio.
Optical digital output
A jack that outputs digital audio in the form of
light pulses. Connect components with optical
digital jacks using a special optical cord, available
from good audio dealers.
Slideshow (DVD, Video CD)
Packed PCM (DVD-Audio only)
A feature of some DVD discs in which still pictures
recorded on the disc cycle automatically as the
audio is played. See also Browsable pictures.
A lossless compression system that enables more
PCM audio to be stored on a DVD-Audio disc than
would otherwise be possible.
Super Audio CDs
PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)
This is a high audio quality pure audio standard
with more data recorded based on CD standards.
There are three different types of super audio CD
discs, single layer, dual layer and hybrid. Hybrid
discs have the structure of both CD and super
audio CD discs.
The most common system of encoding digital
audio, found on CDs and DAT. Excellent quality,
but requires a lot of data compared to formats
such as Dolby Digital and MPEG audio. For
compatibility with digital audio recorders (CD, MD
and DAT) and AV amplifiers with digital inputs, this
unit can convert Dolby Digital, DTS and MPEG
audio to PCM. See also Digital audio.
Title (DVD-Video only)
A collection of chapters on a DVD-Video disc.
Equivalent to a DVD-Audio group. See also
Chapter and Group.
PBC (PlayBack Control) (Video CD only)
A system of navigating a Video CD through on-
screen menus recorded onto the disc. Especially
good for discs that you would normally not watch
from beginning to end all at once—karaoke discs,
for example.
Track
Audio CDs, Video CDs and DVD-Audio discs all
use tracks to divide up the content of a disc. The
DVD-Video equivalent is called a chapter. See also
Chapter and Group.
Progressive scan video
Also called non-interlaced video, this method of
displaying a picture updates all the lines in one
pass, resulting in a more stable, flicker-free image
than interlaced video (for a given scanning rate).
See also Interlaced video.
