Disc types supported

The ARCAM DV29 DVD-player plays a range of disc types. Discs entered into the DV29 should bear one

of the logos shown on the right. These disc types include:

DVD-video (single region, set at factory);

DVD-audio;

CDDA (‘normal’ audio-CDs) including HDCD decoding, CD-R, and CD-RW;

Video CD, including variants such as CVCD, SVCD and DVCD;

MP3 and WMA audio ﬁles, when on a CD-ROM or CD-R/CD-RW (some restrictions apply);

Picture CDs (JPEG image ﬁles).

Other disc formats may not play correctly in this player.

DVD-R/RW and CD-R/RW discs (Audio CDs and Video CD/Super VCDs) recorded using a DVD recorder,

CD recorder or personal computer may not play in the DV29. This may be caused by a number of

possibilities, such as the type of disc used and the type of recording.

CD-R/RW compatibility

This unit will play CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded in CD Audio or Video CD/Super VCD format,

or as a CD-ROM containing MP3/WMA audio ﬁles, or as a ‘Kodak’ Picture CD. However, any other

content may cause the disc not to play, or create noise/distortion in the output. This unit cannot

record CD-R or CD-RW discs.

Unﬁnalized CD-R/RW discs recorded as CD Audio cannot be played.

DVD-R/RW compatibility

This unit will play DVD-R/RW discs that are recorded using the DVD Video format.

This unit cannot record DVD-R/RW discs.

Unﬁnalized DVD-R/RW discs cannot be played in this player.

Compressed audio compatibility

The DV29 will play CD-ROM discs containing ﬁles saved in the MPEG1 Audio Layer 3 (MP3) and Windows

Media ﬁle (WMA) formats, with sampling rates of 44.1 or 48kHz. Incompatible ﬁles will not play correctly,

potentially causing noise or distortion on the audio outputs.

Fixed bitrate ﬁles are recommended. Variable bitrate (VBR) ﬁles are playable, but the playing

time may not be shown correctly.

The CD-ROM used to compile your MP3/WMA ﬁles must be ISO 9660 Level 2 compliant. CD

physical format: Mode1, or Mode2 XA Form 1.

This player plays only tracks that are named with the ﬁle extensions ‘.mp3’, ‘.MP3’, ‘.wma’ or

‘.WMA’.

This player is compatible with multi-session discs, but plays only sessions that are closed.

Use CD-R or CD-RW media for recording your MP3/WMA ﬁles.

There are many different recording bit rates available to encode your MP3/WMA ﬁles. See

page 22 for a list of bit rates that are compatible with this player. Note that MP3 audio encoded

at 128 Kbps or higher should sound close to regular CD Audio quality. This player will play lower

bitrate MP3 or WMA tracks, but be aware that the sound quality becomes noticeably worse at

lower bitrates.

PC created disc compatibility

If you record a disc using a personal computer, even if it is recorded in a ‘compatible format’ as

listed above, there will be cases in which the disc may not be playable in this machine due to the

setting of the application software used to create the disc. In these particular instances, check

with the software publisher for more detailed information.

Check the DVD-R/RW or CD-R/RW software disc boxes for additional compatibility information.

HDMI digital interface

The HDMI (High Deﬁnition Multimedia Interface) interconnect provides high-quality digital audio and

video, all through a single user-friendly connector. HDMI is the ﬁrst consumer-electronics interface

to support uncompressed standard, enhanced, or high-deﬁnition video together with stereo or multi-

channel surround-sound audio, all using one interface.

Connection to a HDMI-equipped AV receiver or audio-visual device for high-quality audio and video is

easy, and communication between the video source and (DTV) players, set-top boxes, and other audio-

visual devices occurs automatically.

For further information on HDMI, please see page 9.

Positioning the unit

Place the DV29 on a level, ﬁrm surface and ensure that there is adequate ventilation for the unit.

Connecting the video output

To view the pictures from the DVD player you need to connect one of its video outputs to your display

device (TV, monitor, projector, etc.).

The DV29 has six video output options:

Component video

RGB

Composite video

Progressive scan component 525P (480P) and 625P (576P) video

HDMI digital video

S-video

You only need to use one type of video from the list; choose a type that your display device supports. If

your display device does not support any of the above connection types then you will be unable to use it

with the DV29; in this case, please contact your dealer for futher assistance.

Note that you may connect equipment such as AV receivers in the signal path between the DVD player

and the display device, so long that the connected equipment also supports the type of video signal you

intend to use. For instructions on how to connect AV equipment, consult the manual for that equipment.

NOTE: The DVD player supports either component video or RGB video at any one time, but not both.

This is speciﬁed in the set-up menu (see page 12). If you use either of these outputs with an incorrect

menu setting, no damage will occur but the picture will be coloured in a strange way. Similar effects

result from cross-connection of the three signals.

If you use component video outputs, you must ensure that the SCART socket is not used. Similarly, if

the SCART socket is used, disconnect the component video leads.

Composite video

If your display device offers only a composite input (sometimes labelled CVBS or just ‘video’), connect

this to the COMPOSITE video output of the DVD player using a 75Ω phono cable suitable for video use.

Note that a composite video connection gives the lowest quality output; if your display device supports

other video connection types, we advise that those are used instead.

S-Video

The S-Video output (also known as S-VHS or Y/C) is commonly supported by display devices worldwide.

Connect the S-VIDEO output of the DVD player to the S-Video input of the display device using an

appropriate cable.

Component video

Use three 75Ω phono cables to connect the Component Y, Pb, Pr

DV29

alternative

outputs of the DVD player to the Y, Pb, Pr inputs of the display

device. Ensure that the cables are suitable for video use and that

they are approximately the same length.

(B–Y)

Some component video interfaces are labelled differently to the

DV29; see the table if the component inputs of your display device

are not labelled ‘Y, Pb, Pr’.

(R–Y)

RGB/SCART output

RGB output is available on both the SCART and Component/RGB sockets and offers picture quality equal

to component video.

Use appropriate cables to connect either the SCART connector or RGB phonos to your display device.

Note that if you are using RGB output via phono connectors, you will also need to use the COMPOSITE

signal as a synchronisation signal.

DV29

E-6

If you are using a SCART connection to your TV, and you do not wish to listen to the audio

through it, then it is best to mute your TV’s speakers as SCART also carries stereo audio signals;

muting the TV will prevent this audio being heard.

If no picture is visible,

ensure that your display

device is set to the

correct input.

Note that the SCART output has a control signal that switches your TV to its SCART

input when the DV29 is turned on. It will also signal to wide-screen TVs the correct aspect ratio

(16:9 or 4:3), provided this feature is supported by the TV.

If ‘black bars’ are shown

at the top and bottom

of the screen: you are

viewing a ‘widescreen’

formatted ﬁlm via a 4:3

format display device.

If possible, change your

display device to show

16:9 format output.

Progressive video

If your television is capable of accepting a progressively scanned (de-interlaced) video signal,

you may wish to use the progressive video output from the DV29.

To connect the progressive output of the DV29 to your display device, follow the instructions

above for connecting component video. If you are unsure whether your display device can accept

progressive video, please refer to its instruction manual or consult your dealer.

HDMI digital video

The HDMI connector offers uncompressed digital video transmission between the DV29 and the

display device, and provides the highest quality video output.

To use this video connection, you will require a HDMI or HDMI/DVI cable between the DV29 and the

display device. See page 9 for further details.

Connecting the digital-audio output

If you have an external surround-sound decoder, receiver or D-A converter that you wish to use with the

DVD player, then you will need to connect it using either a co-axial or optical lead. These digital outputs

provide PCM, Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG multi-channel audio, depending on the source material. It is

also possible (via the set-up menu of the DV29) to set the digital output always to put 2-channel PCM

(stereo mix-down) out.

If possible, use the co-axial connection as this offers slightly better performance. Connect the co-axial

output of the DVD player to the digital audio co-axial input of the decoder/D-A converter or receiver

using a phono cable designed for digital audio interconnection.

Alternatively, connect the optical output of the DVD player to the optical input of the decoder/D-A

converter or receiver using a TOSLINK optical lead.

Connecting the analogue-audio output

If you wish to use the high quality D-A converters of the DV29, then you will need to use its

analogue audio outputs.

If nothing is audible,

Two pairs of stereo outputs are provided (these are identical), labelled L (left) and R (right).

ensure that your audio

device (TV, ampliﬁer,

etc.) is set to the

Connect one of these pairs to the input of your ampliﬁer using a suitable pair of interconnect

cables. If required, the second set of audio outputs can be used to connect to a second ampliﬁer

set-up for ‘multi-room’ use, or routed to a tape recorder for making recordings.

correct input. Check the

connections at both ends

and, if necessary, try an

alternative cable.

For 6-channel material, an additional four outputs are provided. Together with one pair of the

2-channel output connections, these should be connected (using suitable interconnect cables) to

the ‘multi-channel’ analogue input of your home cinema processor (the multi-channel input may

be labelled ‘DVDA’ or ‘SACD’). In this case, the additional 2-channel output pair may be used for

some other function, as suggested above (although when playing 6-channel material, only the

left and right channels of this material would be heard).

The remote-control input

The REMOTE IN input can be used to pass RC5 codes to the DV29 if it is installed in a position (or

system) where infrared cannot be used. If this is required, please contact your dealer for further

information. The DV29 can accept both modulated (at 36kHz) and unmodulated RC5 signals.

Connecting to a power supply

Mains lead

The appliance is normally supplied with a moulded mains plug already ﬁtted to the lead. If for any

reason the plug needs to be removed, it must be disposed of immediately and securely, as it is a

potential shock hazard when inserted into the mains socket.

Check that the plug supplied with the unit ﬁts your supply and that your mains supply voltage agrees

with the voltage setting (115V or 230V) indicated on the rear panel of the unit.

If your mains supply voltage or mains plug is different, or you require a new lead, please consult your

Arcam dealer.

Plugging in

Push the plug (IEC line socket) of the power cable supplied with the unit into the socket (POWER INLET)

in the back of the unit. Make sure it is pushed in ﬁrmly.

Put the plug on the other end of the cable into your power supply socket and switch the socket on.

Introduction

‘Basic operation’ explains how to play a DVD, CD or other type of disc. Note that it may be necessary to

conﬁgure your player correctly for your system before optimum – or any – playback can be achieved.

Player conﬁguration is described beginning on page 12.

More sophisticated features – such as special playback modes and programming jumps and playback

sequences – are described in the ‘Advanced features’ section, later in this handbook.

Front-panel controls

Switching on

Switch the unit on by pressing the POWER button. The status LED glows green when the unit is powered

up and red when in stand-by mode (stand-by is operated from the remote control).

Note that the remote control sensor is located on the right-hand side of the display window. Do not

obstruct this or the remote will not work.

Playing a disc

Loading a disc

Press LOAD on the front panel (or OPEN on the handset) and place the disc on the tray, with the play-

back side facing down (some discs are double sided, in which case the side labelled ‘side A’ should face

up to play side A).

Press LOAD on the front panel to close the tray. The disc loads after a pause of a few seconds.

Playing a disc

Many DVDs begin playing automatically, but some titles begin by displaying a menu. Select the menu

item ‘Play movie’ (or similar) using the cursor pad, then press OK to start playback.

For discs that do not play automatically (including CDs and VCDs), press PLAY.

Note that when playing DVDs, the drive mechanism operates at much higher speeds compared with CDs

and so may produce more noise when loading and playing initial chapters; this is normal.

Fast play

Press

on the front-panel or remote control to play fast forward or backwards. For DVDs, VCDs

and CDs the following speeds for fast playback are available: x2, x4, x8, x20, x60 and x100. Press the

button repeatedly to cycle through the different speeds. To resume normal playback speed, press PLAY.

Fast playback is not available for MP3/WMA discs.

Skipping chapters/tracks

To skip chapters (or tracks on a CD), press

When skipping back, the ﬁrst button press takes you to the beginning of the current chapter. Pressing

the button again takes you to the start of the previous chapter.

The HDMI interface

If you have a HDMI- or DVI-equipped monitor or display, you can connect it to the DV29 using a HDMI

cable. The HDMI connector carries uncompressed digital video, as well as digital audio.

About HDMI

HDMI (High Deﬁnition Multimedia Interface) supports both video and audio on a single digital connection

for use with DVD players, digital TV, set-top boxes, and other AV devices. HDMI was developed to

combine the technologies of High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) and the Digital Visual

Interface (DVI) in one speciﬁcation, with the addition of transmission of digital audio information; HDCP

is used to protect digital content transmitted to DVI-compliant displays.

HDMI has the capability to support standard (interlaced), enhanced, or high-deﬁnition video together

with stereo or multi-channel surround-sound audio. HDMI features include uncompressed digital video,

one connector (instead of several cables and connectors), and communication between the AV source

and AV devices.

Connecting using HDMI

If the HDMI connector is to be used, we recommend ﬁrst setting the ‘Output Priority’ item on the video

menu page to ‘HDMI/DVI’. This will give full ‘plug and play’ functionality. See page 14 for details on how

to do this.

Use a HDMI cable to connect the HDMI socket on this player to a HDMI socket on a compatible display

device or receiver. The arrow on the cable connector body should be face up for correct alignment with

the connector on the DV29. If the DV29 has been conﬁgured to ‘HDMI priority’, then the DV29 will

conﬁgure its video output automatically to match the capabilities of the attached HDMI device.

NOTE: A HDMI connection can be made only with HDMI or DVI-equipped components compatible

with both DVI and HDCP. Note that if you choose to connect to a DVI device, you will need an adaptor

(HDMI to DVI) to do so; a DVI/HDCP connection, however, does not support audio signals.

If you require further information on the possibilities for connecting your DV29 to your DVI/HDMI

equipped display device, please contact your Arcam dealer.

Troubleshooting

Problems with video

NO VIDEO (BLANK SCREEN)

Check that the HDMI cable is connected correctly at both ends. If an HDMI-equipped A/V

receiver is in use, try connecting the DV29 directly to the display device, in order to isolate

where the fault may lie.

Check that the display device is set to display the HDMI input (i.e., has not been set to some

other video input, instead).

Check that the HDMI connector of the receiver and/or display device is enabled. See the user

handbook of the connected device for details on doing this.

Using an alternative video display device (e.g., connected via the composite video out), check

that the ‘Output Priority’ item on the Video page of the Set-up menu is set to ‘HDMI / DVI’. See

page 14 for details on how to do this.

Consult the user handbook of the display device to ensure that it can handle the output formats

provided by the DV29. The DV29 can provide the following: 720x480P (NTSC progressive scan),

720(1440)x480i (NTSC interlaced), 720x576P (PAL progressive scan) and 720(1440)x576i (PAL

interlaced). At least one of these must be supported by the connected device in order for it to

work with the DV29.

NO VIDEO (RANDOM NOISE)

Random noise will be displayed if the content-protection algorithm fails to authenticate the attached

device. This will occur, for example, if a DVI device that does not support HDCP (such as a computer

monitor) is connected to the DV29.

To attempt to isolate this problem, remove all discs from the DV29, the power-off both it and the

connected display device. Switch the display device on, then the DV29 – at this point, the idle logo of the

DV29 should be shown on the display device. If this is not the case, please check the items listed above

for a blank screen.

If the noise appears when a copy-protected disc (DVD) is played, then it is the authentication that is

failing. Please contact your dealer for further information.

Problems with audio

The type of audio provided by the HDMI connector depends on the conﬁguration of the DV29 (see ‘Audio

Setup’ on page 15). Note that pure DVI devices (connections requiring a HDMI to DVI convertor cable)

do not support audio via this connection.

If you have a HDMI device and you are experiencing audio problems, try setting the audio output to

Audio item of the Set-up menu to ‘PCM/2 Ch.’; it may be that the display device supports only 2-channel

audio.

Conﬁguring your DVD player

Introduction

This section of the document describes the use of the ‘Set-up’ menu, which is used to conﬁgure your

player for your system and your personal preferences.

Obtaining a picture

To view the Set-up menu for the initial conﬁguration, we recommend the use of

the composite video output to connect to your display device. This is because the

high quality video output has several display modes and may be incompatible with

your display device in its default conﬁguration.

Ensure that your display device is switched on and that you have selected the

correct video input. You should see the image shown on the right. This is the

image that the DVD player gives whenever there is no disc playing.

NOTE: To protect your screen from damage caused by persistent static

images, a ‘screen saver’ facility activates after a few minutes of inactivity.

When this occurs, the image shown on the right will be ‘bounced’ around the

screen. To reset the image to the central position, press the STOP button on

the player or on the remote control.

Using the Set-up menus

To enter the Set-up menu, ensure that no disc is playing. Press SETUP on the remote control: a menu

will appear on the screen.

The Set-up menu comprises seven pages of options. The top line of each page shows the page title,

indicating the nature of the settings controlled by the page. To make a change, ﬁrst use the UP/DOWN

controls to highlight the item. Once the item to be changed has been highlighted, press RIGHT to open

the list of options for the menu item. The current option for the menu item is shown highlighted; the

UP/DOWN controls can be used to select the new option, then pressing LEFT conﬁrms the selection and

closes the option list.

To change page, highlight the page bar at the top of the screen and use the LEFT/RIGHT controls

to move through the pages.

The UP/DOWN controls ‘wrap around’, so that with the highlight bar at the bottom of the screen,

pressing DOWN takes the bar to the top of the screen.

Items that are not applicable currently (for example, the Pro Logic II settings, when Pro Logic II

processing is switched off) are shown in dark blue, and cannot be highlighted or changed.

Operational set-up

OSD Language

This setting controls the language of the messages displayed on the On-Screen

Display (OSD). The default language is English, with three other languages

supported.

��

Note that this setting does not change the language of any information displayed

on the front panel, which is always in English.

��

OSD Status

��

This setting controls the ‘pop up’ messages that appear on screen.

��

Off

Pop-up messages are enabled

No pop-up messages, only menus when required.

Certain messages, such as ‘No Disc’ are always shown regardless of how this is set.

DVD menu

Some DVD discs support a number of different languages for the DVD disc menu (the menu present on

the DVD itself). This setting allows the preferred language to be speciﬁed. For example, if this item is set

to ‘French’ then disc menus will be displayed in French, where supported by the disc.

Note that not all discs will have your preferred language available.

Subtitle

This setting controls the subtitles displayed on the display device (although note that some discs may

force the subtitles to be displayed regardless of how this item is set).

Off

No Subtitles

Auto

Subtitles for the primary language on the disc

English subtitles

English

French

French subtitles, etc. (six languages are supported)

The default setting for Subtitle is ‘Off’; alternatively, choose the setting for the language you prefer. Note

that not all discs will have your preferred language available as a subtitle.

Force DVI

Even though your display device may be fully HDMI compliant, it is possible that in-line receivers or

repeaters may work only in DVI mode. In this case, it is useful to disable HDMI, forcing DVI output

instead.

Select YES to force the DV29 into DVI mode even when a HDMI device is detected; select NO otherwise.

If you are not using the HDMI capabilities of the DV29, then it does not matter which way this item is

set.

Remote type

This informs the player which type of remote control you are using, so that the player can take into

account the slight differences between the remote types. For ARCAM remote controls, the remote type is

always written on the front of the remote control, normally at the bottom of the unit.

CR-9000

Other

It is important to choose ‘Other’ if the learning remote in use does not support RC-5 ‘toggle bits’.

Disc Priority

Some DVD discs show different material, or have different behaviour, depending on whether the disc is

played on a DVD-video or on a DVD-audio player. The ‘Disc Priority’ option allows you to conﬁgure the

DV29 to be (primarily) one or other of the player types.

Note that, although this setting may be changed after a disc has been loaded into the DV29, this setting

does not take effect unless the disc is re-loaded (or a different disc is played).

DV29

E-13

Video set-up

If your display device is HDMI-compliant, the DV29 can read the capabilities of

the display device directly; the information allows the DV29 to conﬁgure its output

automatically and optimally for the attached device. This is known as ‘plug and

play’.

��

The DV29 can be conﬁgured for plug and play, or not; this depends on the ‘Output

Priority’ setting, described below. If the DV29 is conﬁgured for plug and play, and

the display device cannot handle some of the options described below, then the

options shown will be restricted to just the ones applicable to the attached device.

For example, if the display device can handle PAL signals, but not NTSC, then NTSC

will not be shown as an option for the ‘TV System’ menu item.

��

See page 9 for more information about connecting to HDMI devices.

Output Priority

Allows speciﬁcation of whether HDMI ‘plug and play’ capabilities should be used.

HDMI/DVI

Select this item if you are connecting the DV29 to a HDMI-compliant device, and

you are happy for the DV29 to conﬁgure itself automatically for the device it is

attached to.

This is the recommended setting if you are connecting the DV29 to a

HDMI-compliant device.

Analogue

Select this setting if you are not connecting the DV29 to a HDMI-compliant

device.

TV System

This is set at the factory to be appropriate for the type of display device used in your country.

Should you need to change this setting, the options are explained below.

If the picture is ‘jerky’

or ‘shimmers’, you may

be playing a disc that

has a format different

to the setting of your

player (a PAL disc played

with NTSC output, for

example). If your display

device can handle both

PAL and NTSC video, then

change the ‘TV system’

setting to ‘Auto’.

Auto

The video output is taken from that recorded on the disc. When no disc is playing,

the logo screen is displayed using the standard of the last disc played.

NTSC

NTSC is always used as the video standard. Note that PAL discs are converted to

NTSC, but this causes some reduction in the quality of the video output (and may

cause the video to become ‘jerky’). This is the best setting to use if your display

device can accept only NTSC video (this is generally the case in North America);

better results are obtained by using ‘Auto’, but your display device must be able

to support PAL.

PAL

PAL is always used as the video standard. Note that NTSC discs are converted to

PAL, but this causes some reduction in the quality of the video output (and may

cause the video to become ‘jerky’). Better results will be obtained by using ‘Auto’,

but your display device must be able to support NTSC.

Progressive

Not all displays support

progressive scan. If you

enable progressive scan

accidentally and your

display does not support

it, you may be unable

to view the picture from

the DVD player, including

the on-screen display

required to change the

video settings. To revert

to interlaced mode

Allows conﬁguration of interlaced or de-interlaced (progressive scan) output.

Off

The video output will always be interlaced (standard deﬁnition video). Use this

setting if your display device does not support progressive scan.

NTSC only

(525)

The component video output will switch to progressive scan mode whenever the

output standard is NTSC (525). This would be whenever an NTSC disc is played,

or whenever ‘TV System’ is set to NTSC. The video output will revert to interlaced

(standard deﬁnition) for PAL (625) modes. Use this setting only if your display

device supports NTSC progressive scan.

PAL only

(625)

The component video output will switch to progressive scan mode whenever the

output standard is PAL (625). This would be whenever a PAL disc is played, or

whenever ‘TV System’ is set to PAL. The video output will revert to interlaced

(standard deﬁnition) for NTSC (525) modes. Use this setting only if your display

device supports PAL progressive scan.

without using the on

screen menus, press and

hold the STOP button on

the front panel at any

time. The video mode

will revert to interlaced

mode after the button has

been held in for about ﬁve

seconds.

The component- and HDMI-video outputs will put progressive scan video out for

both PAL and NTSC discs. Use this setting only if your display device supports

progressive scan in both PAL and NTSC formats.

NOTE: When progressive scan is active, the component- and HDMI-video outputs will be in

Progressive mode; the other video outputs (Composite and S-Video) will be muted.

Since progressive scan must be Component, (not RGB), the ‘Analogue Video’ item will be

forced to ‘Component’ if progressive scan is enabled.

TV shape

This needs to be set correctly for the type of display device you have and the type of display you prefer.

4:3

Letterbox

Use this setting if you have a conventional 4:3 display device, and you prefer

to view wide screen movies in letterbox format (with black bars at the top and

bottom)

4:3

Panscan

Use this setting if you have a conventional 4:3 display device, and you prefer to

view wide screen movies in Pan & Scan format (cropping the sides of the image)

16:9

Use this setting if you have a wide screen (16:9) display device.

Material in 16:9 format is displayed so as to ﬁll the screen.

If you have a 4:3 display device and you have set a preference for PANSCAN, it does not mean you will

always see movies in this format, since Panscan display must be supported by the disc being played.

DV29

E-14

Analogue Video

This setting controls the type of video given out on the Component and SCART video outputs. It is set

at the factory to be appropriate for the type of display device used in your country, so it is best not

to change it. If it gets set incorrectly then the picture shown on the display device will have strange

colouring.

Component

The video output on the Component video (3 phonos), SCART and HDMI

connections is Y, Pb, Pr component video.

RGB SCART

The video output on the Component video (3 phonos), SCART and HDMI

connections is RGB. Note that if you are using RGB output via phono connectors,

you will also need to use COMPOSITE as a sync. signal.

Note that this setting has no effect on the video provided by the HDMI connector.

Digital Video

This setting controls the type of video given out over the HDMI connection.

YUV

The HDMI connection carries Y, Pb, Pr (YUV) component video.

The HDMI connection carries RGB video.

RGB SCART

Note that this setting has no effect on the analogue video outputs.

NTSC black (Pedestal)

This setting controls the ‘pedestal’ signal or black level when the NTSC video standard is used.

0 IRE

This removes the pedestal from NTSC video. This setting should be used in Japan,

and also if you are using RGB video, whatever the country.

7.5 IRE

This is the standard pedestal level that should be used in all countries that use

NTSC video, with the exception of Japan.

Note that this setting has no effect on PAL, progressive scan or HDMI outputs.

Audio set-up

This section allows you to conﬁgure the analogue, digital and HDMI audio outputs.

In particular, the digital output type needs to be set correctly if you are using an

external audio decoder, receiver or D-A converter.

��

Audio

Two different types of digital signal are supported on the digital audio outputs:

‘Bitstream’ and ‘Stereo PCM’; the HDMI link can, additionally, carry multi-channel

uncompressed audio (such as from DVD-audio discs).

��

�

Bitstream

The Bitstream setting supports the following audio standards:

��

2 channel PCM (on CDs or DVDs)

Dolby Digital

MPEG multi channel

DTS multi channel

Use the Bitstream setting if you have an external decoder that

supports Dolby Digital.

Stereo PCM

When the ‘Stereo PCM’ digital output is selected, all audio

material played is down-mixed to stereo and output as stereo

PCM. Use this setting if you have an external D-A converter that

supports only 2-channel PCM.

Since the digital and analogue outputs are closely related, the analogue audio output reﬂects the digital

output type selected.

The options available are as follows:

Bitstream + The digital output is ‘Bitstream’ (as described above); the HDMI and analogue

6 Ch.

audio will comprise up to six channels of decoded output, depending on the source

material, the speaker conﬁguration (see the ‘Speaker Setup’ section) and the ‘Pro

Logic II’ setting (see below).

Select this option if:

either – you are using the multi-channel analogue output to connect to your

ampliﬁer/receiver;

or – you are using the HDMI link to carry multi-channel uncompressed audio, such

as the output from a DVD-audio disc. (Note that very few HDMI receivers support

this mode currently – check the handbook of your HDMI device or consult your

dealer for advice.)

Bitstream + The digital audio and HDMI outputs are ‘Bitstream’ (as described above). The

2 Ch.

analogue audio will comprise a 2-channel stereo down-mix of the source material.

Select this option if you are using the digital audio or HDMI outputs to connect to

your receiver and your receiver supports Dolby Digital decoding.

PCM +

2 Ch.

The digital audio and HDMI outputs are ‘Stereo PCM’ (as described above). The

analogue audio will comprise a 2-channel stereo down-mix of the source material.

Select this option if:

either – you are using stereo analogue output to connect to your ampliﬁer/

receiver;

or – you are using the digital audio or HDMI outputs to connect to your receiver

and your receiver supports only 2-channel PCM.

Language

This controls the default audio track, when there is more than one audio track present.

The default setting is ‘English’. Choose the setting you would like as default. Note that the audio-

language preference setting is not respected by all discs, which may impose their own default choice.

DV29

E-15

Down-sample

This needs to be set correctly if you are using an external audio decoder, receiver or D-A converter

connected to the co-axial or optical digital audio output.

Max 96K

Max 48K

Choose this option if your external audio decoder is able to process digital audio

with a sample rate of up to 96kHz, or if you are not using the digital audio

outputs. This is the maximum sample rate present on DVD-video discs.

Choose this option if your external audio decoder is unable to process digital

audio with a sample rate of up to 96kHz. This is the normal setting for this menu

item.

Note that this setting is relevant only to the output from DVD-video discs.

Compression

Allows compression of the audio stream to be turned on or off, where ‘On’ is intended for ‘late night’

listening when large volume changes are not desirable.

Turning compression on increases the volume of the quiet passages and decreases the volume of the

louder passages, i.e., the total dynamic range of the audio is reduced. Normally, however, this item is set

to “Off”, to disable compression.

This menu option affects both the analogue and the HDMI outputs (although note that the HDMI output

is affected only when carrying multi-channel uncompressed audio, not otherwise). The co-axial and

optical digital audio outputs are never affected by this menu setting.

Compression is available only on Dolby Digital recordings.

Pro Logic II

Dolby Pro Logic II decoding is designed to produce a 5-channel analogue output from two-channel

source material. This item can be changed only if the ‘Audio’ menu item (described above) is set

to ‘Bitstream/6 Ch’.

Pro Logic II decoding

should be enabled only

if the analogue audio

outputs are being used.

If co-axial/optical digital

audio or HDMI are in use,

set this menu item to

“Off”.

Set this item to one of the following. Due to the different recording methods used for movies and

music, it is recommended that the correct decoding mode for your source material is used to

obtain the best results.

Off

No Pro Logic decoding is performed.

Dolby Pro Logic decoding is performed. Dolby Pro Logic decoding is a legacy mode,

and we recommend using one of the Pro Logic II decoding options, instead.

Movie

Music

Movie mode should be used with material marked as ‘Dolby Surround’ encoded.

Music mode is for use with any stereo music recording. As the optimum decoding

method varies according to the recording, Music mode allows user adjustment of

the processing characteristics; information about adjusting the Music mode by

using ‘Dimension’, ‘Centre Width’ and ‘Panorama’ controls can be found below.

Matrix

The Matrix mode is the same as the Music mode except that the directional

enhancement logic is turned off. Matrix mode may be used to enhance mono

signal by making them seem ‘larger’.

Dimension

(This setting can be adjusted only when Dolby Pro Logic II Music mode is selected.)

‘Dimension’ allows the user gradually to adjust the soundﬁeld either towards the front or towards the

rear. If a recording is too spacious or strong from the surrounds, it can be adjusted ‘forward’ to get a

better balance. Likewise, if a stereo recording is somewhat too ‘narrow’ sounding, it can be adjusted

toward the rear to get a more enveloping, immersive result. We recommend ‘Dimension’ is set to 0 for

normal use.

Centre Width

This setting can be adjusted only when Dolby Pro Logic II Music

mode is selected.)

Display

Centre spreading

effect

��

No centre spreading

With Pro Logic II decoding, dominant centre signals come only from

he centre speaker. If no centre speaker is present, the decoder splits

he centre signal equally to the left and right speakers to create a

phantom’ centre image. The Centre Width control allows variable

djustment of the centre image so it may be heard only from the

entre speaker; only from the left/right speakers as a phantom

mage; or from all three front speakers to varying degrees. We

ecommend ‘Centre Width’ is set to 3 for normal use.

E-16

Speaker set-up

This menu screen allows you to specify the speaker conﬁguration that is connected

��

either to the analogue ouputs of your DVD player, or to your HDMI receiver when

the HDMI link is carrying multi-channel uncompressed audio. (If you are using

the coaxial or optical audio outputs, set all speakers to ‘Large’ or ‘Present’.) It is

important that this conﬁguration reﬂects accurately the actual situation, otherwise

audio quality may be severely compromised.

��

The speakers are indicated as follows:

��

Front L/R

This is the setting for the ‘Front’ speakers (the speakers used for 2-

channel stereo output).

Centre

This is the ‘Centre’ speaker setting.

Surround

L/R

This is the setting for the ‘Surround’ speakers (normally next-to or

behind the user).

Subwoofer

This is used to indicate whether a subwoofer is connected.

For each speaker, the player can be conﬁgured to send either audio with the full frequency

range of the source material, or with a reduced frequency range. The reduced frequency range

option is used normally when ‘satellite’ speakers are used for the surround channels; these

cannot handle low frequency information. Full frequency speakers are commonly called ‘Large’

speakers, with reduced-range speakers given the name ‘Small’. Low frequency information is re-

routed from ‘small’ speakers to ‘large’ speakers, or to the subwoofer (depending on the speaker

conﬁguration).

No sound from the

centre/rear speakers?

Ensure that the following

are correct:

A multi-channel source

is being played;

NOTES:

1. Any speaker that is not connected should be identiﬁed by selecting ‘Not Present’ for

that speaker.

The ‘Audio’ item is set

to ‘Bitstream/6 Ch.’;

2. Although the DV29 is very ﬂexible in the speaker conﬁgurations it can handle, some

restrictions have been applied. For example, if no subwoofer is present, then it is not

possible to conﬁgure the Front speakers to be ‘Small’ since there would be nowhere

to redirect the low frequency information.

The connection

between the DV29 and

your audio device is made

correctly – if using multi-

channel analogue output,

check that the cables

Stereo+Sub

This setting is relevant to 2-channel source material only (such as CDs). It controls whether the

low frequency information is redirected to the subwoofer, or not. This item can be changed only

if a subwoofer is speciﬁed as present in the system.

have not been swapped.

None

No redirection of low-frequency information occurs; all the audio is sent to the

Front speakers.

Crossover

Duplicate

Low-frequency information is redirected to the subwoofer, with the remaining

(higher-frequency) information sent to the Front speakers.

All the audio is sent to the Front speakers. In addition, the low-frequency

information is duplicated to the subwoofer.

Crossover Frequency

This setting deﬁnes the frequency at which bass redirection begins. Frequencies below this level are

redirected from ‘small’ speakers to the Fronts or to the subwoofer; frequencies above this level are not

redirected. The redirection frequency is the same for all the speakers in a system.

The optimum crossover frequency depends on the characteristics of your speaker set-up, and is best

determined by experimentation. We suggest you start at 100Hz.

Delay set-up

The delay set-up menu page allows two different type of delay to be conﬁgured:

those due to speaker positioning and those due to video post-processing.

��

Speaker positioning

��

The relative positioning of speakers within a room (particularly a large room)

may mean that sound from some speakers arrives at the listener later than

sound from others. By altering the delay settings for the different speakers,

this difference in arrival time can be reduced or eliminated.

��

When setting the delay, it should be imagined that the listener is sitting in a

circle of the speakers; the delay indicates the distance of the speaker from the

listener.

��

Measurement Units

Your DV29 allows you to choose the measurement units that you feel most

comfortable with: metres or feet.

Delays

Delays for the front, centre and surround speakers can be set using the associated sliders. A delay

may be necessary for a speaker set if those speakers are further away from the listener than the

others – specifying the different speaker distances will cause a slight delay to be added to the output

of the closest speakers so that the sound from all the speakers will arrive at the listener at the same

time.

Note that these delay sliders affect only the analogue and the HDMI outputs (although the HDMI

output is affected only when carrying multi-channel uncompressed audio, not otherwise). The

coaxial/optical digital audio outputs are never affected by changes here. If you are using these

digital audio connections between the DV29 and your receiver, set all of the delays to zero.

DV29

E-17

Video post-processing (lip-sync.)

Delay (NTSC/PAL)

Modern displays and video scalers often employ digital video processing that can introduce a

signiﬁcant video delay. The ‘Delay’ menu items allow correction of this effect by delaying the audio

soundtrack up to 150 milliseconds. The amount of correction required in a given system is best

determined by experimentation.

If the interlaced video outputs of the DV29 are in use and the display is converting the signal to

progressive scan then we recommend a delay of 50–80ms, depending upon the display.

If the progressive video output of the DV29 is in use, the player corrects automatically for its

own processing delays and it is unlikely that additional delay will be necessary. Therefore, start

by setting these items to 0ms (no delay).

Trim set-up

The relative sensitivity (volume) of different speakers can lead to some speakers

sounding disproportionately loud or quiet, relative to others in the system. The

trims setting of your DV29 can help to address this inbalance.

��

This page is relevant only if you are using the analogue audio outputs of the DV29

to connect to your ampliﬁer/receiver. If this is not the case, set all the trims to be

0 dB.

��

Test Noise

Setting this item to ‘On’ causes pink noise to be generated from the speaker

indicated by the on-screen highlight. The noise is at the volume indicated by

the slider for the speaker. Setting this to ‘On’ may be useful in ensuring that the

relative volume for each speaker is the same.

Note that this setting is set automatically to ‘Off’ on exit from this menu page.

Trims

Trims for all the speakers can be set using the associated sliders. These settings are useful if the

speakers have different sensitivities (and so have different volumes for the same input levels). The trims

can be set in 1dB steps.

Subwoofer/Stereo+Sub trims

Both the ‘Subwoofer’ and the ‘Stereo+Sub’ trims control the subwoofer trim setting. ‘Subwoofer’ is the

trim used when multi-channel material is being played; ‘Stereo+Sub’ is the subwoofer trim used with

2-channel material.

Access set-up

Password

��

The password setting works in conjunction with the rating setting (the next

menu item) to provide a means of limiting content playback by children (parental

control).

��

You will see there are four dashes and a padlock symbol. Normally the padlock

symbol will be open and this means the parental control is unlocked. Under this

condition the rating setting may be freely changed.

To lock the parental control, choose a suitable four digit number. Don’t forget your

password as you will need to know it to unlock the player. Highlight ‘Password’ and

enter your four digit number using the numerical keys on the handset. When all

four digits have been entered, press OK on the handset. The player is now locked

and you will not be able to change the rating setting.

To unlock the parental control, highlight ‘Password’ and enter your four digit number, followed by OK.

Note that a different pass-code can be selected each time that the player is locked.

Rating

The rating setting is used in conjunction with the password to restrict the content of DVD titles that may

be played. To change this setting the parental control must be unlocked.

The term ‘Parental level’ refers to a standard deﬁned for DVDs. DVD movies may have a parental level

between 1 and 8. Note that this only applies to DVD video discs that have the parental level correctly

implemented. Some DVD video titles do not respond to parental control settings, and Video CDs have no

mechanism for parental control.

Once the rating level has been set, DVD titles with parental level higher than the setting will not play.

Sometimes DVD video titles may be produced that have the parental level set for speciﬁc scenes, so a

disc will play but skip or substitute certain scenes.

Completing the set-up

Complete the set-up procedure by pressing SETUP on the remote control. This saves all the data and

closes the set-up menu. You can press SETUP at any time while in a menu to quit from it.

To return to the set-up menu at any time, ensure that there is no disc playing and press the SETUP

button.

Advanced DVD and VCD features

This section explains the more sophisticated DVD and VCD features, such as special playback modes.

The operations described here are not exactly the same for DVDs and VCDs, but are similar enough to

make it appropriate to group them together.

Note that many VCDs have a single track, so some operations involving tracks will not be relevant.

Jumping to a particular point

Press the SRCH button on the remote control to open the ‘Search’ menu:

��

If the disc is playing, then the elapsed and total times on the disc are shown in the

top right of the page.

��

A jump can be performed using different speciﬁers: jump to a particular time or to

a speciﬁed chapter/track on the disc.

��

Time

Highlight the ‘Time’ ﬁeld and enter the time in hours, minutes and seconds, then

press OK. The Search menu is removed from the screen and playback starts from

the time speciﬁed. Invalid time entries are ignored.

Title/Chapter

(Applies to DVDs only) To jump to a title or chapter, highlight the title/chapter

position and enter the number of the title/chapter to jump to, before pressing OK.

It is possible to jump to a chapter within a different title to the current one by entering a value into both

ﬁelds. Note that specifying a title without a chapter will jump to the ﬁrst chapter in the title.

Group/Track

(Applicable to DVD-audio discs only.) To jump to a group or track, highlight the group/track position and

enter the number of the group/track to jump to, before pressing OK. It is possible to jump to a track

within a different group to the current one by entering a value into both ﬁelds. Note that specifying a

group without a track will jump to the ﬁrst track in the group.

Track

(Applies to VCDs only) To jump to a speciﬁed track on a VCD, enter the track number in the ‘Track’ ﬁeld,

then press OK. Note that many VCDs have only one track.

Closing the Search menu

When displayed, this menu screen can be closed again by pressing the SRCH button (which also has the

effect of cancelling the search).

Special playback modes

Playback modes are available that allow repeat, shufﬂe and programmed playback.

Repeat

Press the RPT button on the remote control to cycle through the repeat options. For DVDs, a chapter or

title repeat may be selected (i.e., play continuously the current chapter or the current title). For VCDs, a

track or disc repeat is available.

When a chapter/track repeat is selected, the loop symbol on the front panel display is illuminated and

the current chapter/track is repeated. If a title/disc repeat is selected, the loop symbol and ‘ALL’ are

illuminated and the current title/disc is repeated.

To cancel repeat, press the RPT button until ‘Repeat: Off’ is displayed.

Shufﬂe

Press the P MODE button on the remote control to switch shufﬂe play on.

The ‘RAND’ (random play) indicator shows on the display, and the chapters/tracks are played in random

order.

To cancel random play, press the P MODE button for a second time.

A-B repeat

The DV29 can repeat a speciﬁc section of a DVD or VCD; this is called an A-B repeat.

To perform an A-B repeat, wait until the disc is at the point where you want the repeat to start, then

press A-B. The OSD shows a repeat symbol, followed by ‘A–’, and the front panel shows ‘A–’.

Press A-B again at the point you want the repeat to end. The repeat symbol, followed by ‘A-B’ is shown

on the display device, and the front panel shows ‘A-B’. The selected section is repeated in a loop.

To cancel the A-B repeat, press A-B again. An ‘Off’ message is displayed on the OSD.

DV29

E-19

Programmed playback (DVD-video)

Press PROG on the remote control to open the ‘Programme’ menu. Note that

playback must be stopped ﬁrst.

��

The bottom of the screen shows the number of titles present on the disc, together

with the number of chapters in the title selected currently (or the ﬁrst title if no

title has yet been speciﬁed). Below this is an information line, giving relevant

information for the cursor position.

��

�

��

You can enter a sequence of up to 20 title/chapter combinations for programmed

playback. If you enter data that is invalid for the current disc, the ﬁeld is erased

automatically.

��

A number of aids have been built in to the programme menu to make it easier to

use. These are best illustrated by an example. Let’s assume that you want to play

chapters 5, 7, 9, 4, 8, 3, and 1 (in that order) of title 1, then all of title 2.

��

First, highlight the title position for the ﬁrst programmed item, then press the

number 1 on the remote control: ‘1’ is shown in the position. Using the remote

control, press

to highlight the chapter position. The message at the bottom of

��

the screen changes accordingly, prompting you for the required information. Press

��

Next, we want to specify all of title 2. For this, highlight the title position of the next

entry (entry 8) and enter the number 2, indicating title 2. Highlight the chapter

��

position and, without entering any number, press

to indicate that all the chapters in title 2 will be played.

. The player ﬁlls in the text ‘All’

Program (DVD-audio)

The programming of a sequence for a DVD-audio disc is essentially the same as for a DVD-video disc,

and the instructions given above should be followed. For DVD-audio discs, the ‘titles with chapters’

combination found on DVD-video discs changes to ‘groups with tracks’.

Programmed playback (VCD)

The bottom of the screen shows the number of tracks present on the disc. Below this is an information

line, giving relevant information for the cursor position.

You can enter a sequence of up to 20 tracks for programmed playback. If you enter data that is invalid

for the current disc, the ﬁeld is erased automatically.

To program the player, highlight the ﬁrst entry (using the cursor pad on the remote control), then press

the number of the track you want to play ﬁrst. To enter a second track, move down, then type the

number of the second track to play, etc. To enter a track number greater than 9, press the two digits

sequentially (e.g., for track 10, ﬁrst press 1, then press 0).

General

To play the programme you have entered, highlight the ‘Play’ button on the screen and press OK. The

‘PROG’ indicator shows in the display and the programmed sequence begins.

If you make a mistake while programming, you can clear a single ﬁeld by highlighting it and pressing

CLEAR. To clear all the ﬁelds at once, highlight the ‘Clear All’ button on the screen and press OK.

To stop the programmed sequence and return to normal playback, select the PLAY button in the

programme menu with no programme speciﬁed. This clears the programme mode and cause normal

playback order to be resumed.

Note that skipping forward or back through tracks while in programmed play mode skips through the

programmed sequence.

E-20

Advanced MP3/WMA/JPEG and audio-CD

features

The DV29 DVD player has the ability to handle MP3, WMA and JPEG ﬁles, when these are burned on to

a CD-R or CD-RW disc. Picture/Photo CDs are also playable. These ﬁle types may be mixed together, if

desired.

This section explains the more sophisticated CD-based features, for audio CDs and for CD-ROM discs

containing MP3, WMA and JPEG ﬁles. The operation for audio-CDs and other CD-ROMs is very similar,

except that CD-ROMs can have directories and sub-directories, while audio-CDs do not have a directory

structure.

In this section of the document, we use the term ‘CD-ROM’ to refer to a CD-R or CD-RW disc containing

MP3, WMA or JPEG ﬁles, and including Picture/Photo CDs.

All of these advanced features use on-screen menus, so a Display device monitor is required.

Screen layout

When an audio-CD or CD-ROM is detected by the DVD player, the disc navigator screen is displayed.

The screen shown above is the disc navigator screen, in this example showing a CD-R containing MP3

ﬁles. The following items can be identiﬁed:

1 ^{The user command indicator.}

2 ^{The mode of the player. This is described in more detail}

below.

3 ^{The current track number and the total number of}

��

tracks in this directory (for CD-ROMs), or on the whole

��

disc (for audio-CDs).

�

��

4 ^{The playback time of the current track, and the total}

��

playback time.

5 ^{For CD-ROMs, this area shows the current directory.}

��

6 ^{‘Up’ – for CD-ROMs, selecting this button changes}

directory to one level above the current one. This button

is not shown for audio-CDs, or if the current directory is

at the top level.

7 ^{‘PAF’ – Play All Files on the disc. Starting from the ﬁrst}

valid ﬁle/track, all valid ﬁles/tracks on the disc are

played, in the order found.

8 ^{‘PD’ – Play Directory. (CD-ROMs only). Starting from the ﬁrst valid ﬁle in the current directory,}

all the (valid) ﬁles in the current directory are played.

9 ^{The names of the tracks in this directory. For audio-CDs, the text ‘Track 1’, etc., is shown here.}

For CD-ROMs, the text shown here is based on the ﬁle name of the track.

bk ^{When playing CD-ROMs, the full name of the ﬁle being played is displayed here (subject to}

screen space).

bl ^{When playing CD-ROMs, tag information from MP3 and WMA ﬁles is displayed here, if present on}

the disc.

bm ^{Helpful messages to the user are displayed here. When the disc is loaded, the PAF button (}7⁾

is highlighted. This means that loading the disc and pressing PLAY or OK is enough to set the

disc playing.

Player mode

When playing audio-CDs or CD-ROMs, the player can be in one of three modes:

Browse mode: the user is free to navigate around the disc directory structure (while playback is

stopped). Valid ﬁles/tracks in each directory (audio-CD tracks or ﬁles that can be played) are displayed

on the screen. Pressing PLAY while the cursor is on a valid ﬁle/track will start playback from that point,

continuing to the end of the disc. Alternatively, the ‘PD’ or ‘PAF’ buttons can be used to start playback.

Programme mode: Press PROG on the remote control to enter ‘Programme’ mode to choose the

order in which the ﬁles/tracks are played. Playback must be stopped ﬁrst. ‘Programme’ mode operates

differently for audio-CDs and MP3 discs, and is explained on page 22.

Playlist mode: The player is in this mode when a programmed sequence of ﬁles/tracks is being played.

No navigation of the disc may be performed in this mode; the player starts at the beginning of the

programmed playlist and plays through to the end.

DV29

E-21

Browsing the disc (Browse mode)

By default, the disc navigator is in ‘Browse’ mode. In this mode, the user can navigate around the disc

(using the cursor pad for direction and ‘OK’ to select an option). When a ﬁle/track is highlighted, the tag

information for that ﬁle (if available) is displayed in the lower portion of the screen. Use the ‘Up’ button

to move to a higher-level directory; to enter a lower-level directory, press OK when the directory name is

highlighted.

At any time, press PLAY or OK to begin playback from the ﬁle/track highlighted currently. Navigation

around the current directory is possible during playback, but playback stops automatically if you attempt

to navigate out of the current directory. Please note the following:

Fast forward and fast rewind do not work with MP3 or WMA playback.

Skipping forward past the end of a directory with CD-ROMs causes playback to continue from the

next directory containing valid ﬁles. Skip-back can be performed only as far as the beginning of

the current directory.

Directory trees may be up to 10 directories deep.

Long ﬁle names, of up to 64 characters (Joliet standard), are supported.

Only sample rates of 44.1kHz and 48kHz are supported for MP3 and WMA ﬁles.

For MP3 playback, the following constant bit rates are supported: 32, 64, 80, 96, 112, 128, 160,

192, 256 and 320 kilobits per second. Variable bit rate (VBR) between 96kb/s and 320kb/s is

also supported.

For WMA playback, the following constant bit rates are supported: 48, 64, 80, 96, 128, 160 and

192kb/s.

CD-ROM discs may contain ﬁles other than MP3, WMA or JPEGs, but these are not displayed on

the screen.

Because of differences in the many MP3 and WMA encoders available, we recommend that you conduct a

test recording before transferring large numbers of MP3 ﬁles to CD-R or CD-RW for subsequent playback

on the DV29.

Programmed playback (Audio CDs)

Press PROG on the remote control to open the ‘Programme’ menu. Playback must

be stopped ﬁrst.

��

�

The bottom of the screen shows the number of tracks present on the disc. Below

this is an information line, giving relevant information for the cursor position.

You can enter a sequence of up to 20 tracks for programmed playback. If you enter

data that is invalid for the current disc, the ﬁeld will be erased automatically.

To program the player, highlight the ﬁrst entry (using the cursor pad on the remote

control), then press the number of the track you want to play ﬁrst. To enter a

second track, move down, then type the number of the second track to play, etc.

To enter a track number greater than 9, press the two digits sequentially (e.g., for

track 10, ﬁrst press 1, then press 0).

��

To play the programme you have entered, highlight the PLAY button on the screen

and press OK. The ‘PROG’ indicator shows on the front panel display and the

programmed sequence begins.

If you make a mistake while programming, you can clear a single ﬁeld by highlighting it and pressing

CLEAR. To clear all the ﬁelds at once, highlight the ‘Clear All’ button on the screen and press OK.

To stop the programmed sequence and return to normal playback, select the ‘Play’ button in the

programme menu with no programme speciﬁed. This clears programme mode and causes normal

playback order to be resumed.

Note that in programmed playback mode, skipping track forward or back skips forward or back through

the programmed sequence.

The player returns to ‘Browse’ mode if no programme has been entered when PROG is pressed for a

second time.

Programmed playback (CD-ROM)

Pressing the PROG button on the remote control stops playback (if active) and changes the player mode

to ‘Programme’ mode (as indicated at point

Navigating the directory tree is the same as described earlier for ‘Browse’ mode. Files from any location

on the disc may be added to the playlist by moving the cursor to the ﬁle, then pressing OK on the

remote control. Files that are present in the playlist are shown with a light blue highlight.

To remove a ﬁle from the playlist, move the cursor to the ﬁle and press OK. The blue highlight

disappears from the ﬁle, indicating that the ﬁle is no longer in the playlist. To remove all ﬁles from the

playlist, press CLEAR on the remote control.

When you have entered the programme to your satisfaction, press the PROG button again. This changes

the display to show the programmed list (‘Playlist’ mode) and playback starts automatically.

Playback can be stopped and started using the STOP and PLAY keys, as normal. To stop the programmed

sequence and return to normal playback, press the PROG button for a third time; this stops playback and

changes the player to ‘Browse’ mode.

Appendix: Serial programming interface

Introduction

This section of the document describes the remote control protocol for controlling the DV29 via the

RS232 interface.

Conventions

The remote controller is referred to as the ‘RC’, with the DV29 called the ‘DV29’.

All values in this section are hexadecimal values, unless otherwise speciﬁed.

Data transfer format

Transfer rate: 19,200bps.

1 start bit, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, no ﬂow control.

Command and response formats

Communication between the RC and the DV29 takes the form of sequences of ASCII characters, with

all commands and responses having the same basic format. With the exception of status triggers (see

below), the DV29 shall transmit only to respond to communication from the RC. The DV29 shall always

respond to a received command.

Each transmission by the RC shall be ﬁve bytes long in the following format:

STR (Start transmission): 0x21

CC (Command code): the code for the command

Px (Parameter code): the parameters for the command

ETR (End transmission): 0xD

Each response by the DV29 shall be seven bytes long in the following format:

STR (Start transmission): 0x21

RC (Reply code): = command code

AC (Answer code): answer code (see below)

Px (Parameter code): the parameters for the reponse

ETR (End transmission): 0xD

The RC shall transmit commands and receive answers according to the following procedure:

1. The RC shall transmit a command.

2. Having issued a command, the RC shall wait at least 100ms before transmitting a subsequent

command (otherwise commands may be lost). Ideally, the RC shall wait for an answer from the

DV29 before issuing the next command.

3. The RC shall analyse the RC, AC and Px values of a received message to decide whether the

command has been executed normally.

4. The time from the completion of command transmission by the RC to the beginning of the

response by the DV29 shall be maximum two seconds.

5. The DV29 shall not accept any commands from the RC for ﬁve seconds after the power switch is

turned on or a ‘power-on’ command is recieved.

The exception to the above communication protocol is when ‘status triggers’ are enabled by the RC (using

the ‘Status Triggers’ command). In this case, the DV29 shall transmit messages whenever the status of

the player changes. These messages shall be transmitted by the DV29 at asynchronous intervals.

State changes as a result of other inputs

It is possible that the state of the DV29 may be changed as a result of user input via the front panel

buttons or via the IR remote control. Changes resulting from these inputs shall be relayed to the RC

(using the appropriate message type) only if ‘status triggers’ have been enabled by the RC.

For example, if the user changed the front panel display brightness using the DISP button on the remote

control, a display message (deﬁned below) would be sent to the RC. A similar action would be taken for

all other state changes.

Answer codes

The following answer codes are deﬁned:

Command OK

‘@’ (0x40): The command has been accepted and processed completely.

‘A’ (0x41): The command has been accepted but not yet processed fully.

Command ACC

Status update

Invalid command

Invalid request

‘B’ (0x42): Status change message

‘0’ (0x30): The command or command format was invalid

‘5’ (0x35): The command is not valid for the current player state

If the answer code returned is anything other than ‘Command OK’ or ‘Status update’ then all parameter

ﬁelds in the return message become ‘reserved’.

Current subtitle stream + ‘0’ (0x30)

Total subtitle stream + ‘0’ (0x30)

The values for the current and total subtitle stream ﬁelds are

returned offset by 0x30. To obtain the absolute values for these

ﬁelds, subtract 0x30 from the returned value.

Subtitle language (see below)

When the value of the ‘Current subtitle stream’ is zero (0x30), it

means that subtitles are switched off.

Remarques

Les valeurs renvoyées pour les ﬂux de sous-titre actuel et totaux sont décalées de 0x30. Pour

obtenir la valeur correcte de ces champs, ôtez 0x30 de la valeur indiquée.

Si la valeur du ﬂux de sous-titre actuel est zéro (0x30), les sous-titres sont alors désactivés.

Hinweise:

Die Werte für den aktuellen und gesamten Untertitel-Datenstrom werden um 0x30 versetzt

ausgegeben. Subtrahieren Sie 0x30 vom angegebenen Wert, um den richtigen Wert zu erhalten.

Ist der Wert von „Aktueller Untertitel-Datenstrom“ Null (0x30), sind die Untertitel deaktiviert.

Opmerkingen:

De geretourneerde waarden voor de huidige en totale velden met ondertitelingsstreams zijn met

0x30 verschoven. Wilt u de absolute waarden voor deze velden verkrijgen, dan trekt u 0x30 van

de geretourneerde waarde af.

Wanneer de waarde van de huidige ondertitelingsstream nul (0x30) is, betekent dit dat de

ondertiteling uitgeschakeld is
