Divx features.
1. Open the battery door on the back of the remote.
2. Insert fresh batteries. Make sure that the polarities

Important Battery Information
•
If you’re not going to use the remote for a month or more, be
sure to remove the batteries because they can leak and cause
damage.
•
•
Dispose of batteries in the proper manner, according to federal,
state, and local regulations.
Any battery may leak electrolyte if mixed with a different battery
type, if inserted incorrectly, if all batteries are not replaced at the
same time, if disposed of in fire, or if an attempt is made to
charge a battery not intended to be recharged.
•
Discard leaky batteries immediately. Leaking batteries can cause
skin burns or other personal injury.

approximately 25 feet long. Consider this when deciding where to
hook up your DVD Player.
Protect Components from Pow er Surges
•
Connect all components before plugging any power cords into
the wall outlet.
•
Always turn off the DVD Player, TV, and other components
before you connect or disconnect any cables.
Position Cables Correctly to Avoid Audio
Hum or Interference
CAUTION
•
Insert all cable plugs firmly into their jacks.
Protect your components from
overheating.
•

•
Do not stack electronic components
or other objects on top of the DVD
Player.
•
•
Try not to coil any twin-lead cables and keep them away from the
audio/video cables as much as possible.

freely.
Make sure all antennas and cables are properly grounded.
•
Allow adequate ventilation when
placing your components in a stand.

Setup and Connections
DVD Player + TV + Dolby Pro Logic or Dolby Digital or DTS Receiver
To Connect the DVD Player
Please Read This Before Using the
DIGITAL AUDIO OUT Jack!
1. Connect the left and right audio cables to your audio/video
receiver and to the AUDIO OUT L (left – white) and R (right – red)
jacks on the back of your DVD Player.
This player’s digital output jack is
designed for a connection to a Dolby
Digital or DTS receiver or decoder.
2. If you have a Dolby Digital or DTS receiver, insert an optical digital
cable (not provided) to the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack on the
DVD Player and to the Digital Input jack on the back of the
receiver. You must also set the Audio Equipment setting in the
Setup menu to the correct setting (Dolby Digital or DTS – see p. 60
for more information).
Older digital equipment may not be
compatible with the Dolby Digital
bitstream. Such a connection can create
a high level of noise that may be harmful
to your ears, and could damage
headphones or speakers.
3. Connect the video cable to the VIDEO OUT jack on your DVD
Player and to the Video Input jack on your TV.
It is important to choose the correct
setting in the DVD Player’s Setup menu,
especially when you use the DIGITAL
AUDIO OUT jack.
If your TV has an S-Video jack, connect the S-Video cable to the S-
VIDEO jack on your DVD Player and to the S-Video jack on your
DVD Player. If your TV doesn’t have an S-VIDEO jack, don’t
connect the S-Video cable.
If you are connecting your DVD Player
to a Dolby Digital receiver, choose the
Dolby Digital setting in the Audio
Equipment menu (within the Setup
menu). If you’re connecting your DVD
Player to a DTS receiver or decoder,
choose the DTS setting in the Audio
Equipment menu. For more information,
see Audio Equipment menu information
on p. 60.
4. If the telephone line cord packed with your DVD Player has a filter
attached to one end of the cord, insert that end of the telephone
line cord into the PHONE JACK on the back of your DVD Player.
Plug the other end into the telephone line splitter (provided), and
insert the telephone line splitter into a phone jack.
If the telephone line cord doesn’t have a filter attached to it, just
insert one end into the DVD Player’s PHONE JACK and insert the
other end into the telephone line splitter. Insert the telephone line
splitter into a phone jack.
5. Connect the AC power cord to the AC IN jack on the back of your
DVD Player, and plug the other end into an AC outlet.
6. Turn on your TV.
7. Turn your TV to the Video Input Channel. (If you don’t know what
channel is the Video Input Channel, please see p. 14).
Remove the Plastic Covers
8. Turn on your DVD Player.
If you’re using the DIGITAL AUDIO
OUT jack, check to see if there is a
protective cover inside of the jack and
on the ends of the optical digital cable.
You must remove these protective
covers before inserting the optical
digital cable into the jack.
Dolby Digital and DTS
Both Dolby Digital and DTS are audio formats used to record
5.1-channel, audio signals onto the digital track of film. Both of these
formats provide six separate channels: left, right, center, left rear, right
rear, and common subwoofer.
Remember, the disc will only play 5.1-channel sound if you’ve connected a
DTS or Dolby Digital receiver or decoder and if the disc was recorded in the
Dolby Digital or DTS format.

A New Way of Looking At Things
In this section you’ll learn how to use your DVD
Player to play Digital Video Discs. Detailed
information about Divx discs in the next section.
You’ll use the on-screen Info Display while you’re
playing a disc to use the different playback features
of each disc. Please remember, an Info Display
option will only work if the disc was programmed
to support that option when it was made. For
example, if you choose subtitles on the Info display,
the subtitles will only appear if the disc was created
with subtitles.
Regional Coding
Both the DVD Player and the discs are coded by
region. These regional codes must match in order
for the disc to play. If the codes don’t match, the
disc won’t play. This player’s code is Region No. 1.

To Load and Play a Disc
Make sure you’ve connected your DVD Player correctly (see “Setup

press the DVD button on the remote control).
1. Press the OPEN• CLOSE button on the front of the DVD Player

2. Place a disc gently into the tray with the disc’s label facing up
(double-sided discs have a label on both sides near the center).
3. Press the OPEN• CLOSE or PLAY button (the disc tray closes).
The DVD Player reads the disc’s table of contents, and then one
of three things happens depending on how the disc was
“authored”—or programmed:
Accessing the Disc Menu
Many discs skip the disc menu and start
playing automatically. To access the disc
menu when you’re playing a disc, press
MENU on the remote.

Resume Feature
When you stop playing a disc, the player
remembers where you stopped. When
you start playing the disc again, the DVD
Player picks up where you left off
(unless the disc is removed or the player
is unplugged).
An example of a disc menu. The menus on discs vary because
the disc menu is created by the disc’s author.
If you press the STOP button twice
accidentally, the resume feature won’t

How to Play Divx Discs
Connect the Telephone Line Cord
1. Turn on your DVD Player.
You must connect the telephone line
cord to the back of your DVD Player
and to a working phone jack in order to
use all of the Divx features. (See p. 4).
2. Press OPEN• CLOSE on your DVD Player.
3. Place the Divx disc into the tray (Divx logo facing up and make
sure the disc lays flat).
4. Press PLAY on your remote (the disc tray closes).
If YOUR PLAYER HAS NEVER PLAYED th is disc before, it will
display the authorization screen illustrated at right. This screen lets you
know what options you have BEFORE you go ahead and play the
movie.
If th e Divx disc is “bran d n ew” an d it h as n ever been played on
an y player, just highlight Play Movie on your TV screen and press OK.
The initial 2-day viewing period will begin and no charges will be
billed to your Divx account.
– – OR – –
If th e disc h as been played on your player an d th ere is still tim e
rem ain in g in th e viewin g period, the Divx disc will begin playing
the movie automatically when the disc tray closes and it will not show
you the authorization screen.
If th e origin al viewin g period on th e Divx disc HAS BEEN USED
(i.e., the Divx disc’s 2-day viewing period has been played on your
player or on someone else’s player before), then the authorization
screen advises you that your account will be charged the amount
which appears on your TV screen. If you agree to the price, highlight
Play Movie and press the OK button on your remote control.
Notes:
•
If the time remaining on any viewing period is less than the total playing
time of the movie, your player will play the entire movie without
additional charges. Once the viewing period expires, you may not be
able to use certain features such as stop or pause.
If th e origin al viewin g period on th e Divx
disc h as been used, an auth orization
screen sim ilar to th e on e above will
appear.
•
The charge for additional viewing periods and the charge for purchasing
unlimited play (DivxSilver) may vary from title to title.
Note:
If you have more than one Divx enhanced DVD Player registered to
your account, you may play a Divx disc on any or all of those
players during the viewing period without incurring additional
charges. Remember that only the player which was used to begin
the viewing period will accurately track the elapsed time of the
viewing period. Therefore, the 2nd player will repeat the
authorization screen. Once the players call the Divx transaction
processing system, your account information will be updated to
correctly reflect the use of a single viewing period and no additional
charges will appear on your statement.

Rated Titles
This part of DVD Limits lets you determine how your player will react
to discs that contain movies that are rated (in the U.S.A. the Motion
Pictures Association of America rates movies as G, PG, PG-13, etc.)
You decide which ratings require a password and which ones don’t.
This system ranks the ratings 1 through 8 in order to accommodate
different countries’ ratings systems (1 is considered a movie title with
the least offensive material).
1. Highlight DVD Limits within the Lock menu, and press OK.

The ratings that don’t require a password (free access) appear in
the green part of the block.
•
The ratings that require a password appear in the red part of the
block.
4. Press OK (the rating limit appears next to the Rated Titles path
menu).
5. Press CLEAR to return to the main menu or press GO BACK to
return to the previous menu screen.
Example: If you set PG as the highest rating for Free Access (green),
then the Rated Titles selection appears as 3 (that’s the player’s number
for PG in its 8-level system) and PG for the movie studios rating. This
means when the player is locked, it will require you to enter the
password to play any discs that are rated higher than PG (i.e., PG13
or R).
Note: If th e Ratin g Lim it Feature Doesn ’t Work
In order for the Rating level feature to work, the disc must be encoded with
the proper rating information. If the author of the disc did not encode rating
information, then this feature will not work for that disc.
What if a movie’s rating exceeds
the player’s rating limit?
The DVD Player must be locked in order for it to enforce the settings in the
DVD Limits part of the Lock menu.
The player alerts you when you try to
play a movie with a rating that exceeds
the limit you’ve set.
Some discs are authored with a rating
override feature included. When you
play a disc with this feature, the
message, Override Limit or Cancel
Selection appears on the screen. If you
choose to override the rating limit, you
will need to enter your password to
begin playback.

Handling Cautions
•
Before connecting other components to this player, be sure to turn them all off.
•
Do not move the player while a disc is being played, or the disc may be scratched or broken, and the player’s
internal parts may be damaged.
•
•
•
•
Do not put a flower vase filled with water or any small metal objects on the player.
Be careful not to put your hand into the disc tray.
Do not place anything other than the disc in the disc tray.
Exterior influences such as lightning and static electricity can affect normal operation of this player. If this occurs,
turn the player off and on again with the POWER button, or disconnect and then reconnect the AC power cord to
the AC power outlet. The player will operate normally.
•
Be sure to remove the disc and turn off the player after use.
Maintenance of Cabinet
For safety reasons, be sure to disconnect the AC power cord from the AC outlet.
•
•
Do not use benzene, thinner, or other solvents for cleaning.
Wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth.
Formation of Condensation
Due to sharp changes in temperature and humidity, condensation may form if warm air comes in contact with any cold
parts inside the player.
•
When condensation forms inside the player, the player may not operate correctly. If this occurs, leave the player at
room temperature until the inside of the player becomes dry and operational.
•
If condensation forms on a disc, wipe the disc with a soft and dry cloth by moving the cloth from the center hole
toward the outer edge.
Handling Discs
•
•
•
Do not touch their signal surfaces. Hold by the edges or by one edge and the hole in the center.
Do not affix labels or adhesive tape to label surfaces. Also, do not scratch or damage the label.
Discs rotate at high speeds inside the player. Do Not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs.
Cleaning Discs
•
•
•
Dirty discs can cause reduced video and audio performance. Always keep discs clean by wiping them gently with a
soft cloth from the inner edge toward the outer perimeter.
If a disc becomes very dirty, wet a soft cloth in water, wring it out well. Wipe the dirt away gently, and them
remove any water drops with a dry cloth.
Do not use record cleaning sprays or anti-static agents on discs. Also, never clean the discs with benzene, thinner,
or other volatile solvents which may cause damage to the disc surface.

Programming the Remote
The universal remote can be programmed to control most brands of
remote controllable TVs, VCRs, satellite receivers and cable boxes.
The remote is already programmed to control most RCA, PROSCAN,
and GE TVs, VCRs, DVD players and satellite receivers.
Testing the remote
To determine whether the universal remote needs to be programmed,
turn a device ON, such as a VCR, point the remote at the VCR, and
press the VCR1 button. Then press POWER or CH ^ (channel up) or
CH v (channel down) to see if the VCR responds to the remote
commands. If not, the remote needs to be programmed.
Programming the remote
There are two ways to program the remote control: automatic code
search and direct entry.
Using Automatic Code Search
ON OFF
VCR1
DVD
TV
VCR2

CABLE
The following instructions can be used to program the remote to
operate each of the components connected to your DVD Player. If
you want to exit the automatic code search without programming any
of your components, press CLEAR until the red light on the remote
turns off.
Red ligh t
1. Turn on the component you want to operate (VCR, TV, etc.)
2. Press and hold the button you want to program (VCR1, VCR2,
etc.). While holding the component button, press and hold

both buttons.
3. Point the remote at the component. Press and release PLAY, then
wait 5 seconds or until the red light on the remote stops flashing.
REVERSE
PLAY
STOP
At this point the remote is searching for the correct code to
program. If, after 5 seconds, the component you want to operate
does not turn off, press PLAY again to tell the remote to search
the next set of codes.
Continue pressing PLAY until the component turns off or you
have searched through all of the codes. There are 20 total sets of
codes. If the component does not turn off after pressing PLAY 20
times, then the remote cannot can’t be programmed to operate
that component.
You’ll use th ese button s wh en you

3. Use the remote buttons that apply to that component.
Modes of Operation
Because this universal remote can control several different components
(DVD player, VCR, cable box, etc.) it uses operational modes triggered
by the component buttons. For example if you want the remote to
control the TV, you would press the TV button to put the remote into
TV mode before you could control the TV.
This Is Important!
You must continue pressing the
component button while you enter the

Note:
This remote may not be compatible with all brands and models of
components.
Let’s say you have a Zenith TV. To
program the remote to operate the TV
you would:
Press and hold the TV button while you
enter the first code listed for Zenith in
the TV Codes column.
Release the TV button. Press ON• OFF
to see if the TV responds. If it doesn’t,
follow the same steps, but enter the
second code instead of the first.

FCC Registration Information
Your DVD Player is registered with the Federal Communications Commission and is in compliance with parts 15B and 68, FCC
Rules and Regulations.
1. Notification to the Local Telephone Company/REN Number
On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating among other information, the FCC Registration number and Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN) for the equipment. You must, upon request, provide this information to your telephone
company.
The REN is useful to determine the number of devices you may connect to your telephone line and still have all these
devices ring when your telephone number is called. In most (but not all) areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices connected
to one line should not exceed 5. To be certain of the number of devices you may connect to your line as determined by the
REN, you should contact your local telephone company.
Notes: This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company.
Party lines are subject to state tariffs, and therefore, you may not be able to use your own telephone equipment if you are
on a party line. Check with your local telephone company.
Notice must be given to the telephone company upon permanent disconnection of your equipment from your line.
2. Rights of the Telephone Company/telephone netw ork information
Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which may harm the telephone network, the telephone company shall,
where practicable, notify you that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. Where prior notice is not
practicable and the circumstances warrant such action, the telephone company may temporarily discontinue service
immediately. In case of such temporary discontinuance, the telephone company must: (1) promptly notify you of such
temporary discontinuance (2) afford you the opportunity to correct the situation and (3) inform you of your right to bring
a complaint to the Commission pursuant to procedures set forth in Subpart E of Part 68, FCC Rules and Regulations.
The telephone company may make changes in its communications facilities, equipment, operations of procedures where
such action is required in the operation of its business and not inconsistent with FCC Rules and Regulations. If these
changes are expected to affect the use or performance of your telephone equipment, the telephone company must give
you adequate notice, in writing, to allow you to maintain uninterrupted service
Industry Canada Information
NOTICE: the Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets certain
telecommunications network protective, operational and safety requirements as prescribed in the appropriate Terminal
Equipment Technical Requirements document(s). The Department does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the
user’s satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local
telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connection. The
customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some
situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be coordinated by a representative designated by the supplier. Any repairs or
alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company
cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines
and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in
rural areas.
CAUTION: Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate electric
inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.
