NOTE: This player is designed and manufactured for

compatibility with Region Management Information

that is encoded on most DVD discs. This player is

designed only for playback of discs with Region

Code 1, or for discs that do not contain Region Code

information. If there is any other Region Code on a

disc, that disc will not play on the DVD 22.

The DVD 22’s exclusive graphical interface makes it

easy to get started, simplifying setup and configuration

adjustments. During playback, the on-screen menus

not only allow a wide range of program options, they

even permit simultaneous playback of JPEG digital still

images with MP3 or Windows Media files recorded

on the same disc. By programming the images to

change with the music, you can easily create your own

personal shows and presentations. Additional menu

options provide a full range of parental control features

to control which discs may be viewed by younger

members of the household, as well as a complete

status screen which provides the technical details on

the disc being played.

CAUTION

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

DO NOT OPEN

CAUTION: To prevent electric shock,

do not use this (polarized)

plug with an extension cord,

receptacle or other outlet

unless the blades can

be fully inserted to

prevent blade exposure.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol,

within an equilateral triangle, is intended to

alert the user to the presence of uninsulated

“dangerous voltage” within the product’s

risk of electric shock to persons.

DVD players are the fastest growing consumer

electronics products ever brought to market, so

this may be the first DVD player you own, or a

replacement for an early-generation machine. In

either case, while some of the DVD 22’s features

and options resemble those of a CD player or your

first DVD player, there are likely to be a number of

functions that you are unfamiliar with. To ensure that

you are able to take advantage of all the power and

flexibility the DVD 22 has to offer, we encourage you

to take a few minutes to review this manual before

SAFETY INFORMATION

Verify Line Voltage Before Use

Cleaning

Important Information for the User

Your DVD 22 has been designed for use with

110–230-volt AC current and the plug is specifically

designed for 120-volt applications. Connection to

a line voltage other than that for which it is intended

can create a safety and fire hazard and may damage

the unit.

When the unit gets dirty, wipe it with a clean, soft, dry

cloth. If necessary, wipe it with a soft cloth dampened

with mild soapy water, then a fresh cloth with clean

water. Wipe immediately with a dry cloth. NEVER use

benzene, aerosol cleaners, thinner, alcohol or any

volatile cleaning agent. Do not use abrasive cleaners,

as they may damage the finish of metal parts. Avoid

spraying insecticide near the unit.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply

with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to

Part 15 of the FCC Rules. The limits are designed to

provide reasonable protection against harmful interfer-

ence in a residential installation. This equipment gener-

ates, uses and can radiate radio-frequency energy and,

if not installed and used in accordance with the

instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio

communication. However, there is no guarantee that

harmful interference will not occur in a particular instal-

lation. If this equipment does cause harmful interfer-

ence to radio or television reception, which can be

determined by turning the equipment off and on, the

user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by

one or more of the following measures:

If you have any questions about the voltage require-

ments for your specific model, or about the line volt-

age in your area, contact your selling dealer before

plugging the unit into a wall outlet.

Unpacking

The carton and shipping materials used to protect your

new receiver during shipment were specially designed

to cushion it from shock and vibration. We suggest

that you save the carton and packing materials for use

in shipping if you move, or should the unit ever need

repair.

Do Not Use Extension Cords

We do not recommend that extension cords be used

with this product. As with all electrical devices, do not

run power cords under rugs or carpets or place heavy

objects on them. Damaged power cords should be

replaced immediately by an authorized service center

with cords meeting factory specifications.

■ Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

To minimize the size of the carton in storage, you may

wish to flatten it. This is done by carefully slitting the

tape seams on the bottom, and collapsing the carton

down to a more two-dimensional appearance. Other

cardboard inserts may be stored in the same manner.

Packing materials that cannot be collapsed should be

saved along with the carton in a plastic bag.

■ Increase the separation between the equipment

and receiver.

Handle the AC Power Cord Gently

■ Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit

different from that to which the receiver is connected.

When disconnecting the power cord from an AC out-

let, always pull the plug; never pull the cord. If you do

not intend to use the unit for any considerable length

of time, disconnect the plug from the AC outlet.

■ Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV

technician for help.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

(1) this device may not cause harmful interference,

and (2) this device must accept interference received,

including interference that may cause undesired

operation.

If you do not wish to save the packaging materials,

please note that the carton and other sections of the

shipping protection are recyclable. Please respect the

environment and discard those materials at a local

recycling center.

Do Not Open the Cabinet

There are no user-serviceable components inside this

product. Opening the cabinet may present a shock

hazard, and any modification to the product will void

your guarantee. If water or any metal object such as a

paper clip, wire or staple accidentally falls inside the

unit, disconnect it from the AC power source immedi-

ately, and consult an authorized service center.

Remove Front-Panel Protective Film

NOTE: Changes or modifications may cause this unit

to fail to comply with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and

may void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

In order to protect the lens covering the front panel of

your new DVD 22, it is shipped from the factory cov-

ered by a protective plastic film. Before using the unit,

remove this film by grabbing one corner and gently

peeling back the plastic sheet. Note that the film must

be removed for proper operation of the remote control.

Installation Location

CAUTION: The DVD 22 uses a laser system. To pre-

vent direct exposure to the laser beam, do not open

the cabinet enclosure or defeat any of the safety

mechanisms provided for your protection. DO NOT

STARE INTO THE LASER BEAM. To ensure proper use

of this product, please read this Owner’s Manual care-

fully and retain it for future use. Should the unit require

maintenance or repair, please contact your local

Harman Kardon service center. Refer servicing to

qualified personnel only.

■ To ensure proper operation, and to avoid the

potential for safety hazards, place the unit on a firm

and level surface. When placing the unit on a shelf,

be certain that the shelf and any mounting hard-

ware can support the weight of the product.

Moving the Unit

Before moving the unit, be certain to disconnect any

interconnection cords with other components, and

make certain that you disconnect the unit from the

AC outlet.

■ Make certain that proper space is provided both

above and below the unit for ventilation. If this

product will be installed in a cabinet or other

enclosed area, make certain that there is sufficient

air movement within the cabinet.

IMPORTANT NOTE: To avoid damage to the DVD 22

that may not be covered by the warranty, be certain

that the disc is removed from the unit before it is

moved. Once the DVD 22 is installed, a disc may be

left in the unit when it is turned off, but the unit should

NEVER be moved with a disc left in the disc tray.

■ Do not place the unit directly on a carpeted

surface.

■ Avoid moist or humid locations.

■ Avoid installation in extremely hot or cold locations,

or an area that is exposed to direct sunlight or

heating equipment.

■ Do not obstruct the ventilation slots on the top of

the unit, or place objects directly over them.

FEATURES & DVD COMPATIBILITY

NOTE: Playback of CD-R or CD-RW discs created on

NOTE: Due to differences in the formatting of certain

discs, it is possible that some discs may include

features that are not compatible with the DVD 22.

Similarly, although the DVD 22 is capable of a wide

range of features, not all discs include every capability

of the DVD system. For example, although the DVD 22

is compatible with multi-angle discs, that feature is only

possible when the disc is specially encoded for multi-

ple-angle play. In addition, the DVD 22 is capable of

playing back both Dolby Digital and DTS soundtracks,

but the number and types of tracks available will vary

from disc to disc. To make certain that a specific fea-

ture or soundtrack option is available, please check the

options noted on the disc jacket.

Disc Formats Supported by This Player

a computer requires proper formatting and finalization

of the disc for audio playback. Some computers

and/or software programs may not be capable of cre-

ating compatible discs.

The DVD 22 can play the following types of pre-

recorded discs:

The DVD 22 will NOT play the following:

• DVD discs with a Region Code other than 1

• DVD discs with PAL format video

• DVD-ROM data discs

• DVD-RAM discs

The DVD 22 will also play most recordable discs, but

we cannot guarantee complete playback compatibility

of CD- or DVD-recordable discs due to the wide

variation in recorders and blank discs.

• SACD discs

• CD-I discs

• Playback of DTS audio discs requires connection to

a processor or receiver with a DTS decoder.

• CD-G discs

• SVCD discs

• Playback capability for CD- or DVD-recordable discs

may vary due to variations in the quality of the disc

and the recorder used to create the disc.

• The DVD 22 is compatible with most discs recorded

with files encoded using MP3 or Windows Media 9,

as well as JPEG still images. However, note that

variations in the encoder or codec used and the bit

rate of the encoding may affect the capability of the

DVD 22 to play back a specific disc. As a result, we

cannot guarantee complete compatibility with all

encoders and versions of the codecs.

• Although the DVD 22 is not compatible with DVD-

Audio discs, most DVD-A discs also contain a copy

of the program material recorded in the standard

Dolby Digital format. The DVD will play back those

portions of the disc, regardless of the format of the

rest of the disc.

DVD TERMINOLOGY

Since the DVD players share some of the characteris-

tics and technology of CD players, many of the terms

and operational concepts used in a DVD player are

similar to what you may be familiar with from CD

players and changers, or older video disc formats such

as Laser Disc. However, if this is your first DVD player,

some of the terms used to describe the features

of a DVD player may be unfamiliar. The following

explanations should solve some of the mysteries of

DVD, and help you to enjoy all the power and flexibility

of the DVD format and the DVD 22.

Progressive Scan: Progressive scan playback takes

the original video signal on the disc and formats it as a

high-scan-rate output with twice the scan lines of con-

ventional video images. Progressive scan outputs must

be connected to “digital-ready” or high-definition video

displays, regardless of the technology of the specific

display (e.g., conventional direct-view television, front

or rear projector, plasma display panel or LCD). In

some cases, the displays may have special inputs for

use with high-scan-rate inputs, and in others you may

need to make adjustments to the display’s setup

menus to make certain that the inputs used are con-

figured for an “HD” signal. Although the progressive

scan output uses the component video jacks, it is

not compatible with older conventional analog video

displays, even when they have component inputs.

Resume: The operation of the Stop Button

on the DVD 22 works differently from what you are

used to on CD players. On a traditional CD player,

when you press the Stop button, the unit does just

that – it stops playback. On a CD player, when you

press the Start button again, the disc starts from the

beginning. With the DVD 22, however, you have two

options when playing DVD discs. Pressing the Stop

Button

once will stop the playback, but it

actually puts the unit in the Resume mode. This means

that you can turn the machine off and, when you

press the Play Button

will resume or continue from the point on the disc

where the Stop Button was pressed. This is

the next time, the disc

Aspect Ratio: This is a description of the width of a

video image in relation to its height. A conventional

video screen is four units wide for every three units of

height, making it almost square. Newer wide-aspect-

ratio video displays are 16 units wide for every nine

units of height, making them more like the screen in a

movie theater. The program material on a DVD may be

recorded in either format and, in addition, you may

configure the DVD 22 to play back in either format,

depending on the features recorded on a disc.

helpful if you are watching a movie and must interrupt

your viewing session but wish to pick up where you

left off. Pressing the Stop Button

twice will

Title: For a DVD, a title is defined as an entire movie

or program. There may be as many chapters within a

title as the producers decide to include. Most discs

include only one title, but some may have more than

one, to give you a “Double Feature” presentation or to

include other special features. Press the Title Button

stop the machine in a traditional manner and, when

the disc is played again, it will start from the beginning.

Chapter: DVD programs are divided into chapters and

titles. Chapters are the subsections programmed into a

single title on a disc. Chapters may be compared to

the individual tracks on an audio CD. Press the Menu

to see a listing of the titles on a disc. When a disc

has only one title, pressing the Title Button

show a list of the chapters.

may

Button

Multiple Angle: DVDs have the capability to show

up to four different views of the same scene in a

program. When a disc is encoded with multiple-angle

Component Video: This form of video signal

eliminates many of the artifacts of traditional composite

video signals by splitting the signal into a separate

luminance channel (the “Y” signal channel) and two

color-difference signals (the Pr and Pb signal

channels). With a component video connection, you

will see greater picture resolution and eliminate many

picture imperfections such as the moiré patterns often

seen on check-patterned cloth. However, in order to

benefit from component video, you must have a video

display with Y/Pr/Pb component video inputs. Do not

connect the component video outputs of the DVD 22

to the standard composite or S-Video inputs of a TV

or recorder.

information, pressing the Angle Button

will

enable you to switch between these different views.

Note that, at present, few discs take advantage of this

capability and, when they do, the multiple-angle tech-

nology may only be present for short periods of time

within the disc. Producers will usually insert some sort

of icon or graphic in the picture to alert you to the

availability of multiple-angle scenes.

Reading: This is a message that you will see when

you first press the Play Button

3G. It refers to

the fact that the player must first examine the contents

of the disc to see whether it is a CD or DVD, and then

extract the information about the type of material on

the disc, such as languages, aspect ratios, subtitles,

number of titles and more. The slight delay while the

contents of the disc are read is normal.

SETUP AND CONNECTIONS

Audio Connections

• One of the major advantages of the DVD format is

its ability to use a variety of digital audio formats for

the ultimate in sonic performance. However, in order

to enjoy the benefits of digital audio, you must use a

receiver or processor that has digital audio decoding

capabilities and make an optical or coaxial digital

audio connection between the DVD 22 and your

home theater system. This simple connection is

made as shown below with an optional coax or

optical cable. Note that only one of these connec-

tions is required, and the choice is determined by

personal preferences, as well as the number of

inputs available on your receiver or processor as

compared to the number of digital audio sources it

must accommodate.

• Even when making a digital audio connection, we

recommend that you also connect the left/right

analog audio outputs of the DVD 22 to your receiver

or processor. While your primary listening will be

done using multichannel audio that is decoded from

the digital audio input, some receivers and proces-

sors also require an analog connection for use with

multizone systems or recording outputs. This optional

connection is shown below.

• When your receiver or processor does not have

digital audio capability, connect the left/right audio

outputs (red/white colored jacks) to an available

left/right audio input on your receiver or processor.

You may also connect these outputs directly to the

left/right audio inputs on a television or video display

when an analog stereo or multichannel receiver is

not used.

Video Display Connections

• If your television, monitor, projector or video display

has standard composite and S-Video connections

only, connect one or the other (but not both) either

to the matching video inputs on your receiver or

processor, or directly to the inputs on your television

or other video display.

• If your television, monitor, projector or video display

display marked “HD Component,” if available.

has component video inputs, we strongly recom-

mend that you connect the Y/Pr/Pb (green/red/blue)

video output jacks on the DVD 22 to the matching

video inputs on your receiver or processor, or

directly to the inputs on your television or other

video display.

• If your video display is compatible with high-

resolution video signals, you may need to

configure the input settings on the display for

use with “480P” input signals.

• When both composite (yellow) and S-Video jacks

(but not component inputs) are available on the

video display, we recommend using the S-Video

connection for higher video quality.

• If you use the component video outputs with

a video display that is compatible with high-

resolution video signals, the DVD 22’s video

output should be changed from Interlaced to

Progressive, as shown on page 20.

• If your receiver or processor has component

video switching capability, we recommend that

the video outputs of the DVD 22 be connected

to the receiver or processor, along with the out-

put of other component video sources in your

system, such as an HDTV tuner or cable or satel-

lite receiver. This simplifies the operation of your

system since the receiver or processor will switch

multiple sources and feed the selected output to

the display.

• If your receiver or processor has video switching

capability, we recommend that the composite or

S-Video outputs of the DVD 22 be connected to

the receiver or processor, along with the output

of other video sources in your system, such as a

VCR and cable or satellite receiver. This simplifies

the operation of your system since the receiver

or processor will switch multiple sources and

feed the selected output to the display.

• When the component video outputs are used, we

recommend that you also connect the standard

composite or S-Video outputs to your receiver or

processor so that standard-rate video signals are

available for use with the multizone or record

outputs, where applicable.

• If your video display is compatible with high-

resolution video signals, be certain that the

switches the video signals, make the connections

between that device and your video display in

accordance with the instructions for that product.

Depending on the capabilities of the receiver,

processor or other switcher, you may need to

make both composite or S-Video and component

video connections.

• If an S-Video or composite video connection is

made either as your primary video connection or in

addition to a component video connection for use in

feeding a multizone system or recorder, note that

you may make either type of connection, but not

both. Only one type is needed.

DIGITAL AUDIO CONNECTIONS

Optical Digital Audio Connection Notes

For Your Reference:

Dolby Digital and DTS

• Remove the dust protection cap from the optical

digital audio output and connect the cable firmly so

that the configurations of both the cable and the

connector match.

• Dolby Digital is a digital sound compression

technique developed by the Dolby Laboratories

Licensing Corporation. Supporting 5.1- or 7.1-

channel surround sound depending on the specific

disc, as well as stereo (2-channel) sound, this tech-

nique enables a large quantity of sound data to be

efficiently recorded on a disc.

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.

• Keep the dust protection cap and always reuse the

cap when not using the connector.

Remember that Dolby Digital or DTS will only play

5.1-channel sound if you’ve connected the optical or

coaxial output of the DVD 22 to a DTS or Dolby Digital

receiver or decoder (see page 13) and if the disc was

recorded in the Dolby Digital or DTS format.

• DTS is another digital audio technology developed

by Digital Theater Systems, Inc. It supports 5.1 and

6.1 surround sound, depending on the specific disc,

thanks to a sophisticated encoding system.

section on page 19).

• The DVD 22 is designed to digitally output 96kHz

PCM audio with a 96kHz sampling rate. The 96kHz

indicator will light in the display. However, some

96kHz DVDs may include copy protection codes

that do not permit digital output. For full 96kHz

fidelity from these discs, use the analog outputs of

the DVD 22. If your surround processor converter

does not support 96kHz PCM audio, you must use

the DVD 22 analog outputs for full 96kHz fidelity

with these discs.

• When connecting a receiver or surround processor

with a digital input but which does not contain a

Dolby Digital or DTS decoder, be sure to select

PCM as the initial setting in the Digital Output menu

(see page 18). Otherwise, any attempt to play

DVDs may cause such a high level of noise

that it may be harmful to your ears and damage

your speakers.

CDs can be played as they would in a conventional

CD player.

Setup Menu

The four submenus within the SETUP menu are

where you establish the basic system settings for the

DVD 22. Most of these settings need to be adjusted

only once, and in many cases you will find that the

system defaults are the correct option for your

combination of DVD player, A/V receiver or surround

processor and video display. However, it is worth a

few minutes to briefly scan through each of the

Submenus to confirm that the settings are correct

and to familiarize yourself with the available options

so that you are aware of the flexibility of the DVD 22.

Panel Time-Out: This settings selects the time-out

interval for the front-panel Information Display @.

The default setting is OFF, which disables this fea-

ture so that the front-panel indicators are always illumi-

nated. You may also choose five to 20 seconds as the

length of time after you press any button on the front

panel or remote for the display to go out. To view the

displays when they are off, press any button on the

remote.

PBC Support: This setting controls the activation of

PBC (Play Back Control) Support for VCD discs. If you

plan to play VCD discs, which are a CD-ROM-based

format that predates DVD, we recommend that the

setting be turned ON.

System Setup Menu

Status Bar Time-Out: This setting selects the time-

out interval for the on-screen Status Bar that appears

at the top of your video screen when the Status

Button xis pressed while a disc is playing. During

DVD playback, the status bar shows the current title

and chapter, as well as the elapsed or remaining time

in the current title. You may program the status bar to

remain on-screen for either five or 20 seconds after

the Status Button xis pressed. When OFF is

selected, the time-out is disabled, and the status bar

will remain on the screen until the Status Button x

or Clear Button ois pressed.

Screen Saver: This setting controls the activation of a

screen saver that prevents the image of the “splash

screen” from being “burned” into the face of your

video display when a disc is stopped for more than

five minutes. If you use the DVD 22 with a plasma dis-

play, direct-view CRT set or a CRT-based projector, we

strongly recommend that the setting be turned ON.

The SYSTEM SETUP submenu is where you

establish the control options for the DVD 22 that do

not relate to audio or video playback. In most cases,

the system default options are sufficient for normal

operation, but you may wish to change them to tailor

the unit’s operation to your preferences.

The following adjustments may be made on the

SYSTEM SETUP menu.

Show Angle Icon: This setting controls the activation

of the Angle Icon. When this setting is turned ON,

also enables you to change the password that must

be entered to change the settings for this option. The

default setting allows all discs to be played, but you

may change the setting so that viewing is controlled

within the eight steps, with lower numbers being more

restrictive and high numbers allowing more material

to be viewed. The steps correspond to the standard

If you are unsure of the capabilities of your receiver or

processor, we suggest that you start with the 96kHz

option. If you select this setting and do not hear any

audio when a high-resolution disc is played, change

the setting to 48kHz so that the audio will be properly

downsampled.

Preferred Audio Language: This setting is used to

select the default language that will be used for pro-

disc being played contains that language. The list of

languages available on any given disc is always shown

on the disc jacket, usually at the bottom of the back

cover. Note that the audio playback language may

also be changed at any time during playback using

the Audio Button c, as described on page 24,

but any changes made will only be effective during

playback of that disc.

The following adjustments are available on the Video

Setup menu:

Dynamic Range: This setting allows you to take

advantage of the programming present on some

Dolby Digital recordings to reduce the volume of

louder, peak passages while maintaining intelligibility

of quieter passages. This means that you may listen

to programs at a level that allows the full impact of a

soundtrack to be heard at a volume that is lower than

you might otherwise use to avoid complaints about

loud volume levels. The DVD 22 accomplishes this by

compressing the audio to a greater or lesser degree,

depending on which setting you choose. Three options

are available:

Aspect Ratio: This setting selects the aspect ratio of

video programming. Your choice should be made

according to the shape of your video display and your

personal preferences. Three choices are available:

• 16:9: If you have a widescreen (16:9) display, or a

display that has a widescreen mode, choose this

setting. With this setting, the DVD 22 will adjust the

output for widescreen movies so that they fill the

entire screen in the proper aspect ratio. Note, how-

ever, that in this setting a disc recorded in the 4:3

aspect ratio will appear in the widescreen as a

boxed image in the center, with black columns on

the left and right side of the screen. Note that if the

widescreen option is chosen and a widescreen

movie is played on a conventional 4:3 aspect ratio

set, the image will be distorted due to vertical com-

pression.

• MINIMUM does not make any changes to the

original playback, and should be used when the

volume setting in the listening room may be as loud

as you desire.

Digital Output: This setting selects the digital audio

data stream that is routed to the Optical Digital

Output ¡ or the Coaxial Digital Output ™.

Two choices are available:

• MEDIUM applies a moderate amount of compres-

sion so that louder passages are a little bit quieter.

• Letterbox: If you have a standard, 4:3 aspect ratio

video display, choose this setting if you wish to see

the entire frame of the movie as it is recorded on

the disc without any image cutoff at the left and

right sides. While this allows widescreen movies to

be shown in their entirety, they will occupy a smaller

portion of the screen and black “letterbox” bars may

appear at the top and bottom of the screen.

• ORIGINAL, which is the default setting, sends

the Dolby Digital or DTS soundtrack, as selected

from the disc’s menu or by using the Audio Button

c, as explained on page xx. This setting should

be used when your receiver or processor is capable of

decoding signals in the Dolby Digital or DTS format.

• MAXIMUM applies more compression so that

louder passages are much softer.

Feel free to experiment with the settings at any time.

Note that if your receiver or processor also allows you

to program the dynamic range setting, also known as

the “Night Mode,” you do not need to make any

adjustments on the DVD 22 and should leave the

setting at MINIMUM.

• PCM, which outputs a standard PCM signal for

decoding by standard digital-to-audio coverters that

are not compatible with Dolby Digital or DTS data

streams.

• PanScan: If you have a standard, 4:3 aspect

ration video display and prefer to have widescreen

movies displayed without the black bars at the top

and bottom of the screen, choose this option. Note,

however, that since most DVDs do not contain spe-

cial “pan/scan” coding that allows the on-screen

image to follow the action, you may find that while

the image will fill the screen, the vertical spread will

cause the image to be cropped at the left and

right side.

PCM Limit: This setting selects the maximum sample

This menu allows you to adjust five key parameters

of the video signal to compensate for differences

between your DVD player and other video sources.

You may use either the DVD 22’s built-in color bar test

signal or a test disc as the standard for the adjust-

ments. To ensure that your system is properly opti-

mized, we strongly recommend that you adjust your

video display using the display’s own controls before

making any changes to the DVD 22’s output. Once

the display is properly calibrated with all settings on

the DVD 22 set to their midpoint, use the controls on

this menu to fine-tune the DVD 22’s output.

TEST SCREEN

DVD is one of the highest quality sources ever made

available for in-home playback of prerecorded pictures

and sound. In order to make certain that your home

theater system is fully optimized to take advantage of

DVD’s superb picture quality, the DVD 22 offers a

built-in video test signal that makes it easy to calibrate

your TV or video display for proper playback.

TV Picture Adjustment With Test Screen

Brightness Adjustment:

1. Turn down the color control on your TV until the

color bars are visible in black and white.

Color Adjustment

1. When the brightness and contrast are set optimally,

turn up the color control to the level of your prefer-

ence. Adjust to the level where the colors look

strong but still natural, not overdone. If the color

level is too high, depending on the TV, some of the

bars will seem wider or the color intensity will not

increase while the control is turned up. Then the

color control must be reduced again. Ultimately, you

also should test the color intensity with a video –

e.g., pictures of natural faces, flowers, fruit and veg-

etables, and other common natural articles for an

optimal setting of the color intensity.

2. Adjust the contrast to the lowest level where you

still can see all bars within the gray scale in the test

picture separately and clearly.

3. Adjust the brightness so that the bars in the gray

scale are all visible. The bar furthest to the left has

to be as black as possible rather than gray but the

next gradation must clearly be distinct from it. All

the bars in the gray scale should be gradually and

evenly changing from black to white, going from

left to right.

Test Screen

With the test screen showing on your video display, the

following adjustments may be made:

• The proper color intensity setting on your TV.

• Proper color adjustments using the color bars, which

should be (left to right) black, white, yellow, cyan

(turquoise), green, magenta, red, blue, black.

2. Use the large white bar below the gray scale to

tweak the warmth of the picture. Every viewer has a

preference as to how the glow of the picture should

be. Some prefer a little colder picture, some a

warmer glow. The Tint function on your TV and the

white bar can be used to control this. Adjust the Tint

to the level where you feel the white color has the

tone you prefer.

Contrast Adjustment:

1. Adjust the contrast on your TV until you see a bright

white bar in the lower right corner of the screen

and a deep-dark-black bar to the left. The optimal

contrast setting will depend on your preference and

the surrounding light in the TV room.

• The proper color transition, seen as sharp

separation of the bars.

• The performance of the color circuits in your TV

(with “Video” signals); bar edges should show

no vertical crawling dots.

2. If the brightness of the white bar no longer increases

when the contrast is turned up or the borders of the

white “harman/kardon” letters on top bloom (over-

light) into the black areas (drastically decreasing

the sharpness of the type), the contrast has been

turned up too much. Reduce the contrast until

these effects disappear and the video still looks

realistic.

With the gray scale and the black/white fields below

the color bars, the brightness and contrast of your

screen can be adjusted.

Color Bars

Gray Scale

3. If you are watching TV with customary surrounding

daylight, adjust the contrast so that a normal video

picture has about the same look as the surround-

ings in your room. That way the eye is relaxed

when watching the TV picture. This contrast setting

may be reduced when the surrounding light is

dimmed, thereby usually improving the sharpness

of a video significantly.

100%

Black/White

Fields

4. The gray scale in the middle line needs to have

the same clear difference between each bar as

before the contrast adjustment. If not, go back to

“

Brightness Adjustment” and repeat Step 3 and

then Contrast Adjustment,” making only minor

adjustments each time for optimization.

Important Notes on DVD Playback

Using a DVD’s Menu

Playback Resume Feature

The DVD 22 is capable of all the features and options

covered by the DVD standards. However, it is up to

the producer of a DVD disc to decide which of those

features and functions are available on any given disc.

For that reason, not all discs will function identically,

and some discs will not have many of the features of

the DVD system. For example, most current DVD discs

do not take advantage of the multiple-angle feature.

When you press a button and the player displays the

“Feature Prohibited” icon “ ”, this is an indication that

the disc has not been programmed for that feature.

One of the unique features of the DVD system is that

it offers a producer the opportunity to include a wide

range of features on a disc, including multiple-

language tracks; subtitles in a variety of languages;

special information such as movie trailers and cast

information; as well as other customized information.

In addition, producers may divide a movie or program

into chapters that allow for quick access to specific

parts of the program. These chapters may be

accompanied by thumbnail pictures of a scene from

the specific chapter to help you select the desired

spot on the disc.

The DVD 22 offers a “Resume” feature for DVD play-

back that is different from the conventional “Stop”

function you may be used to on CD players. When

the Stop Button

is pressed once, the disc

will stop and an on-screen RESUME indication will

appear on the video screen and in the Front-Panel

Information Display

is active, the disc’s position is entered into the unit’s

memory so that when the Play Button is

B. While the Resume feature

pressed to resume playback, the program will continue

at the point where it was when the Stop Button

was pressed.

To completely stop playback, press the Stop Button

twice.

In addition, it is common for the producers of DVD

discs to block the use of certain functions during only

some parts of a disc. For example, many discs prohibit

the use of fast-play buttons or prohibit access to the

Chapter Menu display during the playback of copyright

notices, studio logos, movie credits or trailers. The

appearance of the “Feature Prohibited” icon “ ”,

or the inability of certain features to operate when

the disc itself has prohibited them, does not indicate

a problem with the DVD 22, as these features are

outside of the unit’s control.

When a disc is playing, press the Disc Menu Button

to pause the playback and display the disc’s

menu. As there are no hard rules about style and

contents for DVD menus, the way they appear on the

screen and the information they contain will vary from

one disc to another. However, the following general

rules apply to most menus:

• You may move through the options on a menu with

the M NKLNavigation Buttons 4, as the

disc’s programming allows. The option selected

will typically be highlighted in a certain color or

inside an outline box.

Zoom Feature

The DVD 22’s advanced digital video processing

circuits include a Zoom feature which allows you to

enlarge the image for closer examination of a particular

part of the picture. Four steps of enlargement are

available.

• To select a highlighted option, which may either

play a portion of the disc or move to a submenu,

press the Enter Button yor the Play

27.

• On some discs, when you select the DVD menu

during the playback of a movie, the disc will return

to the point in the program where the menu was

selected by offering a “Play Movie” option. Press

• To use the Zoom feature, press the Zoom Button

while a disc is playing or paused. Each press

of the button will increase the zoom-in effect. When

you have zoomed through all four steps, the picture

will return to normal size.

the Enter Button yor Play Button

to resume play. However, not all discs offer this

feature, and selecting the menu while playing a

movie may mean that you will either have to go

back to the beginning of the program or the start

of a chapter. This feature is out of the control of

the DVD 22, as it is set by the disc’s internal

programming.

• When the zoom feature is activated, you may use

the ⁄¤‹›Navigation Buttons eto move

the zoomed-in picture around the screen once the

information box with the zoom ratio and playback

time no longer appears on the screen.

• Some discs are created in a way that prevents the

Zoom feature from operating. In addition, the Zoom

feature will not operate on disc menus and may not

operate on subtitles.

MP3, WINDOWS MEDIA AND JPEG PLAYBACK

MP3, Windows Media and JPEG Playback

• WMA Files: WMA (Windows Media Audio) is an

audio compression format developed by the

Microsoft^®Corporation for use with its Windows

Media Player. WMA files may be created with

greater compression than MP3 without sacrificing

audio quality so that even more songs may be

recorded on a disc. Note that there have been a

number of versions of Windows Media, and the

DVD 22 is compatible only with files that end in the

“wma” extension and that were recorded using the

Windows Media Series 9 encoding.

You may also change the amount of time each jpeg

image remains on screen. When the Picture icon

has been activated as described above, press the

Enter Button P and then use the ⁄¤‹›

Navigation Buttons 4 to choose an on-screen

image time of 15, 30 or 45 seconds. When you press

the Enter Button P, the setting will remain in effect

until you stop play of the disc.

The DVD 22 will recognize data from CD-ROM discs

recorded in the MP3, Windows Media 9 (WMA) or

JPEG formats. In addition to playing discs with only

one of the formats, you may also play discs with more

than one of the three formats and even program the

player so that sound and image files play at the

same time.

When an MP3, WMA or JPEG disc is loaded, the

names of the files on the disc will appear on your

video display. Use the ‹›Navigation Buttons 4

to highlight any file and then press the Enter Button

P to play it. If the files have been organized into

directories, you may select a folder from the list by

using the ‹›Navigation Buttons 4 to highlight

a directory folder and press the Enter Button P

to expand it. Use the ‹›Navigation Buttons 4

again to select a file and press the Enter Button P

to play it.

• JPEG Files: “JPEG” is the acronym used to identify

image files recorded according to specifications

established by Joint Photographic Experts Group for

compressing still images. Identified by the file exten-

sion “jpg” when they are recorded on most comput-

ers, JPEG files may be created by a digital still cam-

era and then edited and “burned” to a disc in your

personal computer, recorded on a CD-ROM disc

from film images by a photo processor, or scanned

from printed photos into your personal computer

and then burned onto a CD-ROM. When playing a

disc with JPEG images, press the Picture +/–

Buttons K to step through the images

The Specific File Types That May be Played on

the DVD 22 Are:

• MP3 Files: MP3 is a popular audio compression

format that was developed by the Motion Picture

Experts Group as part of the MPEG-1 video com-

pression format. Depending on the specific MP3

encoder used, file size is greatly reduced so that you

store many more songs on one compact disc than

in the standard audio CD format. MP3 is also used

to download audio files to computers for home use.

Note, however, that in order to play an MP3 file on

the DVD 22, the disc may not contain any encryp-

tion or coding that prevents playback. Always be

certain that you have, or have purchased, the proper

rights or authorization before creating a CD-ROM

with MP3 or any other codec format. The DVD 22 is

also able to play MP3 files while displaying their file

names using its advanced graphic interface. Due to

variations in the different encoders and variations of

the MP3 codec and the different bit rates used to

record MP3 discs, the DVD 22 may not be able to

play all discs with MP3 files. We cannot guarantee

complete compatibility with MP3 discs, even though

they may play on a computer. This is normal and

does not indicate a problem with the DVD 22. Note,

also, that when a multisession disc with both stan-

dard CD audio and MP3 (or WMA) content is used,

the DVD 22 will only play the CD audio sections of

the disc.

one by one.

When a disc with only JPEG files is being played, you

may rotate the image by pressing the Angle Button

as needed to turn the image 90, 180 or 270

degrees so that it is properly positioned. You may also

use the Zoom Button J to enlarge a JPEG image

and the ⁄¤‹›Navigation Buttons 4 will

reposition the image when it is zoomed-in. Note that

these functions are not available when a disc contains

both JPEG still image files and MP3 or Windws Media

music files.

Slide Shows

The DVD 22 is unique in its capability to create a

“slide show” when you play JPEG images on a disc

that also contains MP3 or WMA audio files.

To program the player so that the JPEG images will

each play in order for a set time period before switch-

ing to the next image while playing an MP3 or WMA

audio file at the same time, first call up the Player

Menu by pressing the OSD Button Q. Both the

Audio and Picture icons will be active. This will play

an audio and JPEG file at the same time. To view the

images without hearing the audio files, press the

⁄¤‹›Navigation Buttons 4 to move the

cursor to the Audio icon and press the Enter Button

P to deactivate it. To play the audio files without

viewing the images, move the cursor to the Picture

icon and press the Enter Button P to deactivate it.

One icon will always be active.

VCD PLAYBACK

Playback Control

VCD discs made under the Revision 2.0 specification

will usually offer PBC playback control.

VCD Playback

VCD, a video playback format that predates DVD, is

based on a different compression format than DVD and

a recording method that is similar to CD. Although the

DVD has, for the most part, replaced VCD as a format,

the DVD 22 offers VCD playback so that you may play

your existing library of VCD discs.

The PBC Indicator I in the front display will turn on

automatically with any VCD, when the disc is played.

With PBC, you can select titles and navigate the disc

as with DVDs. However, the access to some functions

may be prohibited by the PBC playback control; in that

case, the prohibit icon will appear on-screen.

There are two versions of the VCD format: an early

version which is simply called “VCD” and a later

version with Playback Control which is called “Version

2.0” or “PBC.” The DVD 22 is compatible with both

forms of VCD, although playback will vary according

to which version is used and the specific way in which

the disc was created.

When the VCD is made without PBC, the disc can be

controlled the same as an audio CD, but direct track

access by entering a number is not possible without

opening the On-Screen Banner Display.

With PBC, many discs include chapter selection menus

that are similar to those found on DVDs. However, on

VCD discs, the disc menu (if any) is accessed and

controlled differently than on DVDs.

Even though VCD discs provide video, because the

format is based on CD technology, the playback

functions for a VCD disc are similar to CD. To play a

VCD disc, place it in the DVD 22 as you would do

with any other CD or DVD disc. The unit takes a few

seconds to read the disc’s contents; the VCD Disc

Type Indicators AI in the front-panel display will

light and the disc will begin playing. However, keep in

mind that the exact level of functionality for any VCD

will vary widely and it is ultimately determined by the

way the disc was created, not by the DVD 22, particu-

larly if the disc has been created under VCD Version

2.0 with Playback Control (see “Playback Control”).

• Play

an intro), then leading to the VCD menu (if any)

will skip to the VCD menu

• Once the menu options appear on the screen, make

your selection by pressing the Numeric Keys

that correspond to your desired choice. The desired

selection will begin playing automatically.

When playing VCD discs, most standard DVD/CD play-

back controls are used, including Play, Stop, Pause,

Resume, Track Skip Forward and Reverse, Slow

Forward, Step Forward and Fast Forward or Reverse

Search. The functions Slow Reverse and Step Reverse

are not available with VCDs.

• Direct number entry without any VCD menu shown

on-screen has no effect – even when the Status

Banner is on.

The Menu Button

used during DVD playback

is not used for VCD playback.

With VCDs, you have the same access to detailed

information on the disc playing or on the current player

setting as with DVDs, by pressing the Info Button

on the remote.

Depending on the disc’s functionality, some VCD discs

allow the time display to be changed, even with PBC.
