If you have not yet upgraded to an HDMI video  
display, you may still enjoy pristine picture quality  
with the DMC 1000’s precision video DACs,  
which output a Y/Pr/Pb progressive-scan compo-  
nent signal and composite and S-video. Thus, no  
matter what type of video display used, you will  
see images that are the closest thing to the

Terminology  
Multizone: A multizone system is used to dis-  
tribute audio to various rooms in the house so  
that the occupants of each room may independ-  
ently choose different program material. The  
DMC 1000 permits up to four different zones to  
stream audio simultaneously. Multizone control is  
usually set up by the custom installer, using  
either control devices connected to a home net-  
work, or devices connected to the DMC 1000’s  
RS-232 port.  
HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Content  
Protection): HDCP is the specification for  
protecting digitally encoded content from  
unauthorized copying when it is transmitted from  
a DVD player (or other video source) to a video  
display using HDMI or DVI connections. In order  
to take advantage of the high-resolution output  
of the DMC 1000 via its HDMI output, your dis-  
play must be HDCP-compliant. Virtually all dis-  
plays with HDMI inputs are HDCP-compliant, but  
not all DVI-equipped displays are. If you are  
using the DMC 1000 with an optional HDMI-to-  
DVI cable or adapter, check the owner’s manual  
for your display to determine whether it is  
HDCP-compliant.  
Terminology  
Since they share some of the characteristics 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 product, 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.  
Server: A server is a computer device with a  
large amount of storage that delivers content to  
other devices. The DMC 1000 may be accessed  
as a server from a home network when appropri-  
ate devices are connected. When placed in Server  
Mode, the DMC 1000 may still be used as a serv-  
er, even though its four zones are inactive.  
With the arrival of DVD, disc data capacity has  
increased dramatically. On a DVD Video disc most  
of this capacity is taken up by MPEG 2 video and  
the multichannel movie soundtrack in Dolby  
Digital and/or DTS. This information is  
compressed.  
HDMI™  
(High-Definition Multimedia  
Interface): HDMI is a serial-bus form of  
communication between the DVD player and the  
video display or audio/video receiver. With 5Gbps  
of bandwidth, it is capable of passing  
Zone: A zone is a section of a multizone system  
in which all loudspeakers in the zone play the  
same source program. By connecting the DMC  
1000’s audio outputs for a specific zone to a  
multichannel amplifier, you may include a num-  
ber of loudspeakers in a variety of room locations  
within the zone. Example: A four-channel amplifi-  
er connected to the Zone 2 Outputs may power a  
pair of speakers in the living room and a stereo  
ceiling speaker in the connected dining room, so  
that you and your guests may enjoy the same  
program anywhere within the zone.  
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, that’s why the ratio is  
called ”4:3”. 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 to play  
back in either format, depending on the features  
recorded on a disc.  
uncompressed digital audio and high-definition  
digital video using a single cable. With HDMI, the  
DMC 1000 is capable of outputting high-  
resolution (720p or 1080p) video and  
5.1-channel Dolby Digital or DTS digital audio,  
with the convenience of just a single cable  
connection.  
JPEG Files: JPEG stands for the Joint  
Photographic Experts Group, which developed a  
standard for compressing still images, such as  
photographs. JPEG files may be created on a  
personal computer by importing images from a  
digital camera, or scanning printed photographs.  
These files may be burned onto a compact disc.  
The DMC 1000 is capable of recognizing JPEG  
files and enabling you to view them on your  
video screen.  
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 DMC 1000 to the standard  
composite or S-video inputs of a TV or recorder.  
Media Library: The Media Library refers to the  
content stored on the DMC 1000’s internal hard-  
disc drive. It contains all of the content that you  
have transferred to the DMC 1000, including  
copies of audio CDs, captures of audio streams  
from the Auxiliary Analog Audio Inputs, and MP3  
audio and JPEG image files transferred from  
memory cards, discs or USB drives. The Media  
Library automatically organizes the content so  
that you may view it by track name, album, artist,  
genre, cover art (when available) or playlists that  
you have created. When a multizone system has  
been connected, each zone may access different  
content stored in the Media Library. When con-  
nected to other properly programmed devices in  
the home using the Network Jack or the RS-232  
Port, the Media Library may be used as a server,  
allowing you to enjoy content throughout your  
home.  
Title: For a DVD, a title is defined as an entire  
movie or program. There can 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.  
Chapter: DVD programs are divided into  
chapters and titles. Chapters are the sub-sections  
programmed into a single title on a disc.  
Chapters may be compared to the individual  
tracks on an audio CD.  
4 TERMINOLOGY

Terminology  
RGB Video: This is a new form of video signal  
that eliminates many of the artifacts of  
traditional composite video signals by splitting  
the signal into the three fundamental colors  
Red, Green and Blue (RGB). With an RGB con-  
nection (via SCART), you will see greater picture  
resolution and eliminate many picture  
imperfections such as the moiré patterns often  
seen on checkered patterned cloths. However, in  
order to benefit from RGB video, you must have  
a video display with an RGB compatible SCART  
input.  
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 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 technology 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 viewing angles.  
Progressive Scan: Due to the immense data  
storage capacity of DVD, images are nowadays  
stored progressively (intact, rather than  
interlaced). This allow all of the lines in each  
frame (odd and even) to be shown at the same  
time. DMC 1000 comes with true progressive  
scan video output resulting in a 40% greater  
light output than a conventional TV and a stun-  
ningly detailed, high definition image with  
absence of visible scanlines and motion artifacts.  
WMA Files: WMA (Windows Media® Audio) is  
an audio compression format that was devel-  
oped by the Microsoft® Corporation for use with  
its Windows Media Player. WMA files can be  
even smaller in size than MP3 files, while main-  
taining similar quality. The DMC 1000 is among  
those DVD players capable of playing discs con-  
taining WMA files. Note that Windows Media  
Player uses other file formats; however, the DMC  
1000 is only capable of playing files that end in  
the “.wma” extension. See page 27 for more  
information on WMA file support.  
Reading: This is a message that you will see  
after you´ve loaded the disc and the tray has  
closed. It refers to the fact that the player must  
first examine the contents of the disc to see if 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.  
Resume: The operation of the Stop Button on  
the DVD 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,  
however, you have two options when playing  
DVD discs. Pressing Stop once will stop play-  
back, but it actually puts the unit in the Resume  
mode. This means that you can turn the machine  
off and, when you press play the next time, the  
disc will resume or continue from the point on  
the disc where the Stop button was pressed. This  
is 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 stop the machine in a traditional  
manner and, when the disc is played again, it  
will start from the beginning.  
In resume mode, the cover of the DVD will be  
displayed, if available. Otherwise, the  
Harman Kardon screen will appear.

images. However, note that variations in the  
encoder or codec used and the bit rate of the  
encoding may affect the DMC 1000’s ability to  
play back a specific disc. As a result, we  
cannot guarantee complete compatibility with  
all encoders and versions of the codecs. For  
best results, we recommend that MP3 files be

L Video Output Indicators: Either the 576i  
or 576p indicator will light to indicate whether  
the Component Video Outputs are in progressive

indicate the default 576i (interlaced scan) set-  
ting, even if you attempt to change the Output  
Resolution setting in the Video Setup menu to a  
higher video resolution. When the HDMI Output  
is in use, its video resolution will be indicated.  
The HDMI Output will upscale source materials  
to the higher resolution, as indicated in the  
VIDEO SETUP menu (explained in the Initial  
Setup section). You may change the Video Out  
Resolution setting to a lower resolution to  
improve picture quality using the VIDEO SETUP  
menu. As you select a specific HDMI Output  
video resolution and the DMC 1000 successfully  
determines that the video display is capable of  
handling that resolution, its indicator will light  
and will appear briefly in the Message Display  
and on screen.  
M Angle Indicator: This indicator blinks when  
alternative viewing angles are available on the  
DVD currently playing.

nal).  
If you wish to close the dropdown menu without  
changing the setting, press the Back Button.  
When Full is selected, 16:9 materials will appear  
on 4:3 displays in “letterbox” format, with black  
bars at the top and bottom of the screen. On  
16:9 displays, 16:9 materials will fill the screen,  
but 4:3 materials will appear with black or gray  
bars on the left and right sides of the screen.  
The DVD Player Setup Menu contains the  
following settings.  
Content Play Mode: This setting compensates  
for disc authoring errors that occur when the  
frame rate is not properly maintained during the  
conversion from film to video. It only affects pro-  
gressive scan display using the HDMI Output or  
the Component Video Outputs. Three choices are  
available:  
Preferred Subtitle Language: Defines your  
preferred subtitle language. Every time a disc will  
be played that contains this subtitle language, it  
will be shown automatically. If you do not find  
your preferred language in the list of options, you  
can select your preferred language by highlight-  
ing OTHER. Press ENTER and use the Navigation  
Buttons to select your preferred language from  
the list shown on the screen. Note that only  
those languages will be available that are actual-  
ly on the DVD you would like to play. You can

DMC 1000 analyzes the signals from the DVD,  
determines whether it was originally recorded  
on video or shot on film, and adjusts the output  
accordingly.  
Film: Choose this option for material that was  
originally shot on film, even though you are  
viewing it on video via a DVD.  
Video: Choose this option for material that  
was shot directly to video, such as concerts and  
sports programming.

a setting that is compatible with that device.  
Video Output: When both the analog video  
outputs and the HDMI Output are connected,  
select the desired video output. Both HDMI and  
the analog video outputs are not available simul-  
taneously. Example: The HDMI Output is connect-  
ed to a display in the main listening room and  
the Composite Video Output is being distributed  
to a multizone system.  
DVD Bass Management Bypass: This is the  
default system setting, and should be used  
when the receiver or processor is capable of  
performing bass management. Configure the  
speaker settings on the receiver. All main  
speakers default to the Large (full-range) set-  
ting, and the subwoofer is on. These settings  
may not be changed.  
Auto: This is the default setting, and it is  
recommended that you leave the HDMI Audio  
Out line at this setting. The DMC 1000 will  
automatically select the correct setting, based  
on the capabilities of your receiver or video dis-  
play.  
DVD Bass Management On: Use this setting  
if the receiver is not capable of performing bass  
management, to ensure that the low frequen-  
cies steered to each channel match the fre-  
quency-response capabilities of the speakers.  
Uncompressed: At this setting, all digital  
audio is decoded and output as PCM streams.  
For example, a DVD with a Dolby Digital sound-  
track will be decoded, and 5.1 PCM streams  
(one per channel) will be output through the  
HDMI Output for playback by your receiver.  
I The default settings are Small (only fre-  
quencies of 200Hz and higher are passed)  
for all of the main speakers, and the sub-  
woofer is on.  
I With the left and right speakers set to  
Large, the center speaker may be set to  
Small or None, but not Large. Change the  
Center and Surround settings to None for  
stereo mode when listening to 2-channel  
recordings. The subwoofer will remain on.  
Use this configuration when you desire the  
added power of a separate subwoofer for  
the low frequencies.  
I Change the left and right speaker setting  
to Small when using a speaker system con-  
sisting of small satellites and a subwoofer.  
The Center and Surround settings will  
automatically change to Small, and the  
Subwoofer setting will remain on; neither  
setting may be changed.  
Compressed: This setting may be used with  
receivers that are capable of decoding digital  
multichannel formats from the HDMI stream.  
Off: Use this setting if your receiver is not  
capable of processing the audio portion of the  
HDMI stream and you have made a separate  
digital audio connection from the DMC 1000 to  
the receiver. No audio will be passed to the  
HDMI Output.  
IMPORTANT NOTE: When the HDMI Output is  
active for audio, the Optical and Coaxial Digital  
Audio Outputs are muted. If the HDMI Output is  
being used for video only and the S/P-DIF outputs  
are required for audio, turn the HDMI Audio Out  
setting Off.

System Setup  
Output Resolution: This setting may be used to  
change the video output resolution. It affects the  
Component Video Outputs and the HDMI Output,  
but with different allowed settings depending  
upon whether the HDMI Output is in use. This  
setting may also be changed by pressing the  
Video Mode Button on the remote repeatedly to  
cycle through the available settings options.  
Restore: This setting is used to restore a backup  
copy of the system settings and Media Library  
contents. The existing contents of the Media  
Library will be erased. Use this feature only in the  
unlikely event that the hard-disc drive in your  
DMC 1000 has been replaced.  
General Setup  
These general system settings should be accessed  
with caution. See Figure 7. If you are uncertain  
about the proper setting for any of these options,  
consult with your dealer or installer, or contact  
Harman Kardon Customer Service at  
Reset Factory Defaults: This setting is used to  
return all of the Setup Menu settings to their fac-  
tory defaults. They will then have to be reconfig-  
ured as required for your application. The con-  
tents of the Media Library are not affected by this  
command.  
HDMI Output In Use: With the HDMI Output  
connected to another device, this setting  
defaults to Auto, but you may change it to  
576p, 720p, 1080i or 1080p. We recommend  
leaving the setting at Auto, in which the  
DMC 1000 sets the video output based on the  
capabilities of the device it is connected to. If  
you attempt to select a video output resolution  
that your video display is not capable of han-  
dling, such as 1080p for a display that is only  
1080i-capable, you will not see a picture.  
Network: When the DMC 1000 is connected to  
a network, the network settings are identified  
here. These settings may be used with other  
devices when the DMC 1000 is to be used as a  
media server as part of a home network. This fea-  
ture also allows you to test the network connec-  
tion to make certain that Internet access is avail-  
able. Press the “9” key on the remote twice, to  
display the Internet Protocol (IP) address on the  
front panel.  
Figure 7 – General Setup Menu  
HDMI Output Not In Use: When no device is  
connected to the HDMI Output, this setting  
only applies to the Component Video Outputs.  
Only two values are available: 576i (the  
default) and 576p. Select 576p only if your  
video display’s component video inputs are  
capable of handling a progressive scan signal.  
If it isn’t, you will see no picture or a distorted  
picture when this setting is changed to 576p. In  
that case, press the Video Mode Button on the  
remote to correct it.  
Software Update: When system software  
updates are released, this setting will be used  
during the installation process. Do not make any  
changes here unless instructed to do so.  
Language Selected: Select the display lan-  
guage for the DMC 1000’s menus here. Choose  
from the default English, or Spanish, French,  
German or Italian.  
Date & Time: The first time the DMC 1000 is  
used, set the local time and date here.  
System Information: This setting displays the  
software version number and the amount of  
hard-disc space available. It is informational only.  
Format USB: This command allows you to refor-  
mat a USB device, which completely erases the  
contents of the drive. Exercise great caution  
before reformatting a drive.  
Picture Mode: Select from the Normal, Vivid,  
Sport and Nature picture settings to optimize  
viewing of various types of programs. This setting  
is a matter of taste, and there is no incorrect set-  
ting.  
Advanced Setup  
Now that your DMC 1000 has been installed and  
configured, it’s easy to enjoy your favorite audio  
and video programs from a variety of media,  
including DVDs, CDs, memory cards, USB drives  
and the DMC 1000’s own Media Library.  
The settings shown in Figure 8 should be used  
with caution. If you have any doubts about  
whether it is appropriate to change these set-  
tings, consult with your Harman Kardon dealer or  
custom installer.  
Video Noise Reduction: We recommend that  
you leave this setting at the default “Off”. If  
video signal noise is observed when using  
theanalog video outputs, turn this setting on to  
reduce the noise and improve the picture quality.

items for immediate playback, or a Playlist that is  
stored for later retrieval. Record an audio stream  
from a device connected to the Auxiliary Inputs,  
or copy a playlist to any of the portable media,  
including a recordable CD, a memory card or a  
USB drive. You may also control audio playback  
in up to four separate zones at a time. The DMC  
1000’s sophisticated yet easy-to-use on-screen  
menus will guide you at every stage.  
or in rare instances when there is a gap in the  
database.  
The DMC 1000 has four power states, each  
designed to minimize unnecessary power con-  
sumption.  
DVD Playback  
The DMC 1000 supports all of the features and  
options of standard DVDs. However, not all discs  
offer each option at all times. If the “Function  
Prohibited” icon (Ø) appears, then you are  
attempting a function that is not available at that  
time or with that media, and it does not indicate  
a problem with the DMC 1000.  
Full-Off Mode (Dim Blue) – The DMC 1000,  
including its hard-disc drive, is fully powered  
down, but is ready to be turned on using the  
front panel or remote control.  
Sleep (Standby) Mode (Amber) – The DMC  
1000 will not respond to any commands other  
than to power on.  
Playing DVDs and CDs  
Disc Playback Features  
With the DMC 1000 turned on, press the  
Open/Close Button on the front panel or remote.  
Gently place the disc in the tray, making sure to  
seat it properly. Refer to the Media Compatibility  
section for details on which disc types may be  
played in the DMC 1000. Other disc types will  
not play. The DMC 1000 will take a few moments  
to read and identify the disc.  
Server Mode (Amber) – The DMC 1000  
may be controlled via the RS-232 Port or the  
Network Connection, but the on-screen menu  
system is off.  
Skipping tracks or titles/chapters  
To move forward or backward through the tracks  
on a CD or the titles or chapters on a DVD, press  
skip on the front panel or Previous/Next on the  
remote.  
Full-Power Mode (Bright Blue) – The DMC  
1000 operates normally.  
Fast Motion Playback/Fast Search  
See Table A7 in the Appendix for a description of  
each mode and the DMC 1000’s response to the  
power controls.  
1. To move forward or backward through the  
DVD or CD disc being played at fast speed,  
press Search on the remote. Once one of these  
buttons is pressed, the fast search will contin-  
ue until Play is pressed.  
If the disc is a DVD, it will automatically begin  
playing. Although we recommend using the disc’s  
own menu system for navigation, audio track  
selection and subtitle language selection, see the  
DVD Playback section for instructions on using  
the DMC 1000’s commands for these functions.  
NOTE: There is technically a fifth state of “no  
power,” in which the power cord is unplugged  
and/or the rear-panel Master Power Switch is  
turned off in the circle position (0). However,  
it is unlikely you will see this situation in normal  
use.  
There are four fast-play speeds. Each press of the  
Search Buttons will cycle to the next speed in the  
following order: x2, x4, x8, x16, indicated by a  
number of arrow indicators on the right top of  
the screen.  
If the disc is an audio CD, the DMC 1000 will  
automatically copy it to the Media Library at high  
speed, displaying the progress of the recording  
as a percentage. The DMC 1000 is capable of  
playing back the recording almost as it is being  
made (if your unit has been set up for Play and  
Record operation). Once the recording is com-  
pleted, you may remove the disc and continue to  
listen to the content as it is played from the  
Media Library.  
Press the front-panel Power Control or remote  
Power On Button to turn on the DMC 1000  
when the Power Indicator is dim blue or amber.  
2. Press PLAY at any time to resume normal  
playback.  
When the Power Indicator is bright blue, press  
the front-panel Power Control or remote Power  
Off Button to switch to Server Mode (Power  
Indicator turns amber), or press and hold either  
control to turn the DMC 1000 fully off (Power  
Indicator turns dim blue).  
Note that there will be no audio playback during  
fast-forward or -reverse play of DVD discs. This is  
normal for DVD, as A/V receivers and surround  
processors cannot process the digital audio  
streams during fast-play modes; audio will be  
heard during fast-play of conventional CD’s.  
When a CD or other music content is added to  
the Media Library, the DMC 1000 accesses  
Gracenote MusicID, which includes a vast online  
database containing identifying information for  
almost every commercial CD in existence, as well  
as cover art for the vast majority of CDs. This  
powerful service enhances the listening experi-  
ence, as the user is able to view album, artist and  
track information and the cover art during play-  
back. This information is then stored in the  
Media Library. A copy of the database resides in  
the DMC 1000 so that even when it is not con-  
nected to the Internet, the identifying informa-  
tion for most popular CDs (except for cover art) is  
retrieved and stored with the audio in the Media  
Library. However, for the latest and most com-  
plete version of the database, we recommend  
connecting the DMC 1000 to a high-speed  
Internet access point. Music recognition technol-  
ogy and related data are provided by Gracenote.  
Gracenote is the industry standard in music  
recognition technology and related content deliv-  
ery. For more information, visit  
When the DMC 1000 is in Server Mode (Power  
Indicator is amber and Server Mode message is  
displayed), press the Power Off Button on the  
remote to switch to Sleep Mode (Power Indicator  
remains amber).  
Freeze Frame and Frame Advance  
(with DVD only)  
1. Press PAUSE when a DVD is playing to freeze  
the picture.  
2. Each time you press one of the STEP (FWD or  
REV) buttons, the picture advances one frame.  
Using the DMC 1000  
After turn-on, the DMC 1000 will display its  
Main Menu (see Figure 9). If the Media Library is  
loaded with content, any cover art will appear in  
a mosaic in the background.  
3. Press PLAY to resume normal playback.  
Slow Motion Playback (with DVD only)  
1. When a DVD disc is in pause or freeze frame  
mode, you may move slowly forward or back-  
ward through the program being played at  
one of the speeds by pressing the Slow  
Buttons on the remote. Each press of the  
buttons will move to the next speed, indicated  
by a number of arrow indicators on the right  
top of the screen.  
2. Press PLAY to resume normal playback.  
Note that there will be no audio playback during  
slow-forward or -reverse play of DVD discs. This  
is normal for DVD, as A/V receivers and surround  
processors cannot process the digital audio  
streams during slow modes. Slow play is not  
available for CD.  
NOTE: When no cover art is available, the DMC  
1000 will display a generic musical-note icon.  
This may occur if the DMC 1000 is not connected  
to the Internet, if a noncommercial disc is loaded,

Operation  
To view the play queue, press the Menu Button  
to display the Main Menu, and navigate to the  
Play Queue line. Press the Enter Button. The Play  
Queue is preserved unless the DMC 1000 is  
powered down to Full-Off mode (by pressing  
and holding the Power Off Button on the remote  
so that the front-panel Power Indicator turns  
dim blue). If the Play Queue line in the Main  
Menu is dimmed, the Play Queue has been  
erased.  
Using  
The Bridge is an optional dock that may be used  
with a compatible iPod (not included). When The  
Bridge is connected to its proprietary input on  
the DMC 1000 and the iPod is docked, you may  
enjoy the audio and still-image materials stored  
on your iPod.  
When an iPod is docked in The Bridge, the IPOD  
FOUND message will appear on the front panel,  
and a banner with The Bridge icon and the  
Detected message will appear on screen. The  
iPod will be in “disc mode,” and its screen will  
display the “OK to disconnect” message. Do not  
physically undock the iPod while its content is  
playing. However, you may select the Undock  
command at any time.  
The Play Queue is not available during DVD  
playback, or when The Bridge is the media  
source.  
Figure 21 – Select a Playlist  
Playlists may be edited by selecting the Playlist  
View from the Media Library. Press the Menu  
Button to view the Main Menu, and navigate to  
the Playlists view in the Media Library. Press the  
Enter Button, and scroll to the desired playlist.  
The commands function as expected:  
You may create playlists that are permanently  
saved by name for future playback.  
Programming a Playlist  
Playlists are not only a convenient way to store a  
queue of your favorite songs, but they are  
required to transfer audio from the Media  
Library to any of the portable media. See the  
Content Transfer section for more information.  
Select The Bridge as the media source from the  
Main Menu. The menu shown in Figure 22 will  
Play Now: Plays the selected playlist immedi-  
ately, adding it to the Play Queue.  
Add to Queue: Adds the selected playlist to  
the end of the Play Queue.  
To program a playlist, display the desired con-  
tent on screen by selecting the correct source  
(the Media Library, a card slot, a data CD or a  
USB device) and selecting the audio or still-  
image content. Scroll to the desired content,  
e.g., a song track or file, use the F/G  
Add to Playlist: Adds the selected playlist to  
a new or existing playlist.  
Open Playlist: Opens the playlist to allow  
editing of individual tracks, including removing  
a track from the playlist, changing the track’s

a
to the Play Queue or a playlist, editing the  
track’s identifying information or deleting the  
track from the Media Library.  
A pop-up screen will prompt you to select from  
an existing playlist, to name a new playlist, or to  
select an empty prenamed playlist, such as  
Dance or Chill. See Figure 21. If you select one  
of the prenamed playlists and have already used  
that name, a number will be added to the end to  
differentiate the new playlist. The pop-up dialog  
box displays up to four playlists at a time. Scroll  
up or down to view the remaining playlists.  
Figure 22 – The Bridge menu  
Navigate the contents of the iPod in a similar  
manner to other data media sources. Select  
between the audio (music) and still-image  
(photo) content. When Music is selected, you  
may sort it using views similar to those in the  
iPod’s own menu: Playlists, Artists, Albums,  
Songs, Podcasts, Genres, Composers or Audio  
Books.  
Edit Name: Opens the character-entry dialog  
box to rename the playlist.  
Delete Playlist: Deletes the playlist (but not  
its contents) from the Media Library.  
Only three options are available for iPod con-  
tent:

Operation  
Undock iPod: This command ends play of any  
content on the iPod and returns to the Media  
Library view of the Main Menu. The iPod’s own  
menu appears on its screen. To resume playback,  
physically undock the iPod from The Bridge and  
redock it.  
Audio CDs  
Auxiliary Inputs  
As soon as an audio CD is loaded, the DMC  
1000 begins the process of copying it to the  
Media Library at high speed. It displays the  
progress of the recording as a percentage record-  
ed.  
With the analog audio device connected to the  
Auxiliary Inputs and the media loaded, either  
press the Record Button, or press the Menu  
Button to view the Main Menu. Scroll to the  
Record line and press the Enter Button.  
Press the Back Button to return to the previous  
menu level, similar to pressing the Menu button  
on the iPod itself.  
At the same time, the DMC 1000 automatically  
begins playing the copy of the CD from the  
Media Library, if you have programmed the DMC  
1000’s Setup Menu to do so.  
Select Auxiliary” from the dropdown menu as  
the recording source. See Figure 23.  
You may not import content from the iPod to the  
Media Library, and you may not add the iPod’s  
content to the Play Queue or a playlist. You may  
not record from the Media Library to an iPod  
docked in The Bridge. These are limitations of the  
iPod’s design, and do not reflect a problem with  
the DMC 1000.  
The DMC 1000 uses Gracenote MusicID to iden-  
tify the CD, tag it with the correct information  
and import the album cover art, if available. If the  
DMC 1000 is not connected to the Internet,  
Gracenote MusicID will tag the content using the  
offline database stored on the DMC 1000’s hard-  
disc drive; however, it will not display any cover  
art. For homemade discs, the service will attempt  
to identify the content based on any tags that  
were created when the disc was recorded.  
NOTE: The Bridge may not be compatible with  
some iPod models, particularly the iPhone and  
the iPod touch. To enjoy content stored on these  
devices, connect a cable from the device's head-  
phone output to the DMC 1000's Auxiliary  
Analog Audio Inputs.  
Figure 23 – Select a Recording Source  
Next, select the Media Library (the only option)  
as the recording destination. The screen shown in  
Figure 24 will appear.  
After the DMC 1000 has finished copying the CD  
to the Media Library, you may remove the disc  
and store it.  
Auxiliary Analog Audio Inputs  
In addition to digital media, the DMC 1000 also  
accommodates analog source devices, such as  
cassette decks and turntables, but mainly as a  
recording source. Connect the device to the rear-  
panel Auxiliary Inputs.  
NOTE: The DMC 1000 initially copies the CD to  
.wav files. If you have adjusted the Audio  
Encoding Quality setting in the Media Library  
Setup menu to one of the MP3 formats, the DMC  
1000 will then encode the .wav files as MP3 files  
at the specified sampling rate. If you attempt to  
transfer the CD from the Media Library to a  
memory card, recordable CD or USB drive before  
the encoding is completed, the files will be trans-  
ferred as .wav files. Since .wav files are much  
larger than MP3 files, depending on your desti-  
nation media, you may not have enough space to  
complete the transfer.  
IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not connect a turntable  
directly to the DMC 1000 unless it includes an  
onboard phono preamp or is connected to an  
external phono preamp which is then plugged  
into the Auxiliary Inputs. Phono preamps may be  
available from specialty audio shops or electron-  
ics stores.  
Figure 24 – Record From the Auxiliary Inputs  
Select the Listen to Aux In option to monitor the  
analog device. Begin playing the device, and cue  
it up to the desired starting point. Example: most  
cassette tapes include about five seconds of  
blank leader tape, plus additional blank tape at  
the beginning. Play until the audio begins so as  
to minimize the amount of dead air in the  
recording.  
The device connected to the Auxiliary Inputs is  
not available for source selection in the usual  
manner. It is selected as a recording source, as  
described in the Content Transfer section,  
although it is possible to monitor the source  
without making a recording.  
Data CDs  
Data CDs are discs that contain sound and image  
files. They are recognized when loaded, but oper-  
ation is handled differently.  
To transfer the CD’s content to the Media Library:  
Content Transfer  
1. Select it as a playback source, and view the  
audio files. Still-image files may not be added  
to the Media Library.  
One of the DMC 1000’s most exciting features is  
its ability to transfer content from one type of  
media to another, and to store your library  
of music on its internal hard-disc drive.  
2. The CD is listed as a single folder, which you  
may expand as usual. Select the Add to Library  
option to import it to the Media Library. Audio  
files are transferred in their original format,  
e.g., as MP3 files.  
The method for making recordings varies slightly,  
depending on the source media.  
OPERATION 29  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Operation  
NOTE: The DMC 1000 does not detect the pres-  
ence or absence of an audio signal at the  
Auxiliary Inputs.  
To locate the newly recorded tracks, view the  
Media Library by Track and by Last Added. The  
track will be displayed at the top of the list. You  
may also sort the Track view by Name, looking  
for tracks starting with “AUX.” You may wish to  
view the Tracks by Artist, as all tracks with artist  
“Unknown” will be listed first, and the record-  
ings will appear here.  
NOTE: If recordings made from the Auxiliary  
Analog Audio Inputs were tagged by Gracenote  
MusicID, the DMC 1000 will generate new file  
names in the format of [artist] – [three-digit track  
number].wav. The tags will be transferred to the  
portable media with the file. Thus, if you upload  
the file from the media to your PC using software  
that is capable of recognizing the tags, the track  
will appear with its correct song title and other  
information.  
When you are ready to begin the recording,  
select the Start Recording option and begin play-  
back of the analog device. You may experiment  
by making several recordings and deleting those  
you don’t want.  
Select the Edit Info option to rename the tracks  
and add other identifying information. Enter as  
much information as possible about the track to  
enable Gracenote MusicID to locate any cover art  
and properly tag the track. This is particularly  
useful when you have recorded commercial  
albums from cassette, vinyl or other analog  
media.  
While the recording is in progress, a screen simi-  
lar to the one shown in Figure 25 will appear.  
Solid-State Media  
You may transfer content from any of the solid-  
state media (memory cards or USB device) to the  
Media Library in a similar fashion to recording  
from the Media Library. However, it is not neces-  
sary to create a playlist, since the data media are  
already organized as file folders.  
Media Library  
You may transfer audio content from the Media  
Library to any of the portable media – memory  
cards installed in the card slots, a USB device  
connected to one of the USB Ports, or a record-  
able CD loaded in the Disc Player.  
1. Press the Record Button, or select the Record  
command from the Main Menu, and select the  
solid-state media as the source, with the  
Media Library (the only option) as the destina-  
tion.  
Figure 25 – Recording in Progress  
1. Create a playlist of the desired content. The  
Play Queue may not be used for this purpose.  
2. The DMC 1000 will display the folders and  
files stored on the media. Select one or more  
items for recording.  
Make a note of the file name automatically gen-  
erated by the DMC 1000 to easily locate the  
recording later. The DMC 1000 also displays the  
elapsed time, and a graphic and numeric display  
of the space available on the hard-disc drive.  
2. Press the Record Button, or select the Record  
command from the Main Menu, and select the  
Media Library as the source, with the other  
media as the destination.  
3. When all selections have been made, select  
the “Record Selected” option to begin the  
transfer.  
Select the Pause Recording option to pause the  
recording without starting a new file when  
recording is resumed. This feature is useful if you  
wish to record a series of audio tracks as one file  
while skipping breaks in between, such as when  
recording an entire side of a cassette tape into  
one file.  
NOTES:  
NOTE: Content may only be transferred from one  
of the solid-state media to the Media Library, not  
from one of the solid-state media to the other. If  
you wish to transfer content from one type of  
media to another, first add the content to the  
Media Library, and then record it to the other  
type of media.  
• When a blank recordable CD has been loaded,  
you will be presented with the options of  
recording it as an audio disc or as an MP3 disc.  
Audio discs conform to the “red book” stan-  
dard and may be played in any standard CD  
player. Many CD players are not capable of  
playing MP3 discs. Check with the manufactur-  
er of the player for more information.  
Select the Stop Recording option to end record-  
ing of the file. The screen shown in Figure 26 will  
appear.  
• Any standard CD-R disc may be used. Special  
Music/Audio Recordable CDs are not required.  
3. The DMC 1000 will display the playlists in the  
Media Library.  
Select one or more playlists for recording.  
4. When all selections have been made, select  
the “Record Selected” option to begin the  
transfer.  
Selections are transferred in the same format in  
which they are stored in the Media Library. Thus,  
if your CDs are automatically recorded to the  
Media Library in the MP3 format, they will be  
transferred to the portable media as MP3s.  
Analog audio streams are recorded from the  
Auxiliary Inputs as lossless WAV files, and are  
transferred in that format to the portable media.  
Figure 26 – Recording Complete  
Select Done if you are finished, or Record Next to  
record another track, which returns to the screen  
shown in Figure 25, allowing you to cue up the  
next track.

Preamble: The licenses for most software are  
designed to take away your freedom to share and  
change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public  
Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to  
share and change free software – to make sure the  
software is free for all its users. This license, the  
Lesser General Public License, applies to some spe-  
cially designated software packages – typically  
libraries – of the Free Software Foundation and  
other authors who decide to use it. You can use it  
too, but we suggest you first think carefully about  
whether this license or the ordinary General Public  
License is the better strategy to use

stitute a work based on the Library (independent of  
the use of the Library in a tool for writing it).  
Whether that is true depends on what the Library  
does and what the program that uses the Library  
does.  
many libraries. However, the Lesser license provides  
advantages in certain special circumstances. For  
example, on rare occasions, there may be a special  
need to encourage the widest possible use of a cer-  
tain library, so that it becomes a de-facto standard.  
To achieve this, non-free programs must be allowed  
to use the library. A more frequent case is that a  
free library does the same job as widely used non-  
free libraries. In this case, there is little to gain by  
limiting the free library to free software only, so we  
use the Lesser General Public License. In other  
cases, permission to use a particular library in non-  
free programs enables a greater number of people  
to use a large body of free software. For example,  
permission to use the GNU C Library in non-free  
programs enables many more people to use the  
whole GNU operating system, as well as its variant,  
the GNU/Linux operating system. Although the  
Lesser General Public License is Less protective of  
the users’ freedom, it does ensure that the user of  
a program that is linked with the Library has the  
freedom and the wherewithal to run that program  
using a modified version of the Library. The precise  
terms and conditions for copying, distribution and  
modification follow. Pay close attention to the dif-  
ference between a “work based on the library” and  
a “work that uses the library.” The former contains  
code derived from the library, whereas the latter  
must be combined with the library in order to run.  
When we speak of free software, we are referring  
to freedom of use, not price. Our General Public  
Licenses are designed to make sure that you have  
the freedom to distribute copies of free software  
(and charge for this service if you wish); that you  
receive source code or can get it if you want it; that  
you can change the software and use pieces of it in  
new free programs; and that you are informed that  
you can do these things.  
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the  
Library’s complete source code as you receive it, in  
any medium, provided that you conspicuously and  
appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate  
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep  
intact all the notices that refer to this License and  
to the absence of any warranty; and distribute a  
copy of this License along with the Library.  
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions  
that forbid distributors to deny you these rights or  
to ask you to surrender these rights. These restric-  
tions translate to certain responsibilities for you if  
you distribute copies of the library or if you modify  
it. For example, if you distribute copies of the  
library, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give  
the recipients all the rights that we gave you. You  
must make sure that they, too, receive or can get  
the source code. If you link other code with the  
library, you must provide complete object files to  
the recipients, so that they can relink them with the  
library after making changes to the library and  
recompiling it. And you must show them these  
terms so they know their rights. We protect your  
rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the  
library, and (2) we offer you this license, which  
gives you legal permission to copy, distribute  
and/or modify the library. To protect each distribu-  
tor, we want to make it very clear that there is no  
warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is  
modified by someone else and passed on, the  
recipients should know that what they have is not  
the original version, so that the original author’s  
reputation will not be affected by problems that  
might be introduced by others. Finally, software  
patents pose a constant threat to the existence of  
any free program. We wish to make sure that a  
company cannot effectively restrict the users of a  
free program by obtaining a restrictive license from  
a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that any patent  
license obtained for a version of the library must be  
consistent with the full freedom of use specified in  
this license. Most GNU software, including some  
libraries, is covered by the ordinary GNU General  
Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser General  
Public License, applies to certain designated  
libraries, and is quite different from the ordinary  
General Public License. We use this license for cer-  
tain libraries in order to permit linking those  
libraries into non-free programs. When a program is  
linked with a library, whether statically or using a  
shared library, the combination of the two is legally  
speaking a combined work,  
a derivative of the original library. The ordinary  
General Public License therefore permits such link-  
ing only if the entire combination fits its criteria of  
freedom. The Lesser General Public License permits  
more lax criteria for linking other code with the  
library. We call this license the “Lesser” General  
Public License because it does Less to protect the  
user’s freedom than the ordinary General Public  
License. It also provides other free software devel-  
opers Less of an advantage over competing non-  
free programs. These disadvantages are the reason  
we use the ordinary General Public License for  
You may charge a fee for the physical act of trans-  
ferring a copy, and you may at your option offer  
warranty protection in exchange for a fee.  
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or  
any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the  
Library, and copy and distribute such modifications  
or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provid-  
ed that you also meet all of these conditions:  
a) The modified work must itself be a software  
library; b) You must cause the files modified to carry  
prominent notices stating that you changed the  
files and the date of any change; and c) You must  
cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no  
charge to all third parties under the terms of this  
License; and d) If a facility in the modified Library  
refers to a function or a table of data to be sup-  
plied by an application program that uses the facili-  
ty, other than as an argument passed when the  
facility is invoked, then you must make a good faith  
effort to ensure that, in the event an application  
does not supply such function or table, the facility  
still operates, and performs whatever part of its  
purpose remains meaningful. (For example, a func-  
tion in a library to compute square roots has a pur-  
pose that is entirely well-defined independent of  
the application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires  
that any application-supplied function or table used  
by this function must be optional: if the application  
does not supply it, the square root function must  
still compute square roots.)  
Terms and Conditions for Copying, Distribution and  
modification  
0. This License Agreement applies to any software  
library or other program which contains a notice  
placed by the copyright holder or other authorized  
party saying it may be  
distributed under the terms of this Lesser General  
Public License (also called “this License”). Each  
licensee is addressed as “You.”  
A “library” means a collection of software functions  
and/or data prepared so as to be conveniently  
linked with application programs (which use some  
of those functions and data) to form executables.  
The “Library,” below, refers to any such software  
library or work which has been distributed under  
these terms. A “work based on the Library” means  
either the Library or any derivative work under  
copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the  
Library or a portion of it, either verbatim or with  
modifications and/or translated straightforwardly  
into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is  
included without limitation in the term “modifica-  
tion.”)  
These requirements apply to the modified work as a  
whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not  
derived from the Library, and can be reasonably  
considered independent and separate works in  
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not  
apply to those sections when you distribute them  
as separate works. But when you  
distribute the same sections as part of a whole  
which is a work based on the Library, the distribu-  
tion of the whole must be on the terms of this  
License, whose permissions for other licensees  
extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and  
every part regardless of who wrote it.  
“Source code” for a work means the preferred form  
of the work for making modifications to it. For a  
library, complete source code means all the source  
code for all modules it contains, plus any associat-  
ed interface definition files, plus the scripts used to  
control compilation and installation of the library.  
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim  
rights or contest your rights to work written entirely  
by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to  
control the distribution of derivative or collective  
works based on the Library.  
Activities other than copying, distribution and mod-  
ification are not covered by this License; they are  
outside its scope. The act of running a program  
using the Library is not restricted, and output from  
such a program is covered only if its contents con-

source or binary form) with the major components  
(compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating sys-  
tem on which the executable runs, unless that com-  
ponent itself accompanies the executable.  
less in length), then the use of the object file is  
unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a  
derivative work. (Executables containing this object  
code plus portions of the Library will still fall under  
Section 6.)  
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not  
based on the Library with the Library (or with a  
work based on the Library) on a volume of a stor-  
age or distribution medium does not bring the  
other work under the scope of this License.  
Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library,  
you may distribute the object code for the work  
under the terms of Section 6. Any executables con-  
taining that work also fall under Section 6, whether  
or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.  
3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary  
GNU General Public License instead of this License  
to a given copy of the Library. To do this, you must  
alter all the notices that refer to this License, so  
that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public  
License, version 2, instead of to this License. (If a  
newer version than version 2 of the ordinary GNU  
General Public License has appeared, then you can  
specify that version instead if you wish.) Do not  
make any other change in these notices.  
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the  
license restrictions of other proprietary libraries that  
do not normally accompany the operating system.  
Such a contradiction means you cannot use both  
them and the Library together in an executable that  
you distribute.  
6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may  
also combine or link a “work that uses the Library”  
with the Library to produce a work containing por-  
tions of the Library, and distribute that work under  
terms of your choice, provided that the terms per-  
mit modification of the work for the customer's  
own use and reverse engineering for debugging  
such modifications.  
7. You may place library facilities that are a work  
based on the Library side-by-side in a single library  
together with other library facilities not covered by  
this License, and  
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irre-  
versible for that copy, so the ordinary GNU General  
Public License applies to all subsequent copies and  
derivative works made from that copy.  
distribute such a combined library, provided that  
the separate distribution of the work based on the  
Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise  
permitted, and  
provided that you do these two things: a)  
Accompany the combined library with a copy of the  
same work based on the Library, uncombined with  
any other library facilities.  
This must be distributed under the terms of the  
Sections above; and b) Give prominent notice with  
the combined library of the fact that part of it is a  
work based on the Library, and explaining where to  
find the accompanying uncombined form of the  
same work.  
You must give prominent notice with each copy of  
the work that the Library is used in it and that the  
Library and its use are covered by this License. You  
must supply a copy of this License. If the work dur-  
ing execution displays copyright notices, you must  
include the copyright notice for the Library among  
them, as well as a reference directing the user to  
the copy of this License. Also, you must do one of  
these things: a) Accompany the work with the com-  
plete corresponding machine-readable source code  
for the Library including whatever changes were  
used in the work (which must be distributed under  
Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an exe-  
cutable linked with the Library, with the complete  
machine-readable “work that uses the Library,” as  
object code and/or source code, so that the user  
can modify the Library and then relink to produce a  
modified executable containing the modified  
Library. (It is understood that the user who changes  
the contents of definitions files in the Library will  
not necessarily be able to recompile the application  
to use the modified definitions.); b) Use a suitable  
shared library mechanism for linking with the  
Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses  
at run time a copy of the library already present on  
the user's computer system, rather than copying  
library functions into the executable, and (2) will  
operate properly with a modified version of the  
library, if the user installs one, as long as the modi-  
fied version is interface-compatible with the version  
that the work was made with; c) Accompany the  
work with a written offer, valid for at least three  
years, to give the same user the materials specified  
in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more than  
the cost of  
This option is useful when you wish to copy part of  
the code of the Library into a program that is not a  
library.  
4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a por-  
tion or derivative of it, under Section 2) in object  
code or executable form under the terms of  
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accom-  
pany it with the complete corresponding machine-  
readable source code, which must be distributed  
under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a  
medium customarily used for software interchange.  
If distribution of object code is made by offering  
access to copy from a designated place, then offer-  
ing equivalent access to copy the source code from  
the same place satisfies the requirement to distrib-  
ute the source code, even though third parties are  
not compelled to copy the source along with the  
object code.  
8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or  
distribute the Library except as expressly provided  
under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy,  
modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the  
Library is void, and will automatically terminate  
your rights under this License. However, parties  
who have received copies, or rights, from you under  
this License will not have their licenses terminated  
so long as such parties remain in full compliance.  
5. A program that contains no derivative of any por-  
tion of the Library, but is designed to work with the  
Library by being compiled or linked with it, is called  
a “work that uses the Library.” Such a work, in iso-  
lation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and  
therefore falls outside the scope of this License.  
9. You are not required to accept this License, since  
you have not signed it. However, nothing else  
grants you permission to modify or distribute the  
Library or its derivative works. These actions are  
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  
Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Library  
(or any work based on the Library), you indicate  
your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its  
terms and conditions for copying, distributing or  
modifying the Library or works based on it.  
However, linking a “work that uses the Library”  
with the Library creates an executable that is a  
derivative of the Library (because it contains por-  
tions of the Library), rather than a “work that uses  
the library.” The executable is therefore covered by  
this License. Section 6 states terms for distribution  
of such executables.  
10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work  
based on the Library), the recipient automatically  
receives a license from the original licensor to copy,  
distribute, link with  
When a “work that uses the Library” uses material  
from a header file that is part of the Library, the  
object code for the work may be a derivative work  
of the Library even though the source code is not.  
Whether this is true is especially significant if the  
work can be linked without the Library, or if the  
work is itself a library. The threshold for this to be  
true is not precisely defined by law.  
performing this distribution; d) If distribution of the  
work is made by offering access to copy from a  
designated place, offer equivalent access to copy  
the above specified materials from the same place;  
and e) Verify that the user has already received a  
copy of these materials or that you have already  
sent this user a copy.  
or modify the Library subject to these terms and  
conditions. You may not impose any  
further restrictions on the recipients’ exercise of the  
rights granted herein. You are not responsible for  
enforcing compliance by third parties with this  
License.  
For an executable, the required form of the “work  
that uses the Library” must include any data and  
utility programs needed for reproducing the exe-

ters, data structure layouts and accessors, and

14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into  
other free programs whose distribution conditions  
are incompatible with these, write to the author to  
ask for permission. For software which is copyright-  
ed by the Free Software Foundation, write to the  
Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make  
exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by  
the two goals of preserving the free status of all  
derivatives of our free software and of promoting  
the sharing and reuse of software generally.  
11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allega-  
tion of patent infringement or for any other reason  
(not limited to patent issues), conditions are  
imposed on you (whether by court order, agree-  
ment or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of  
this License, they do not excuse you from the condi-  
tions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as  
to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this  
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as  
a consequence you may not distribute the Library at  
all. For example, if a patent license would not per-  
mit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by all  
those who receive copies directly or indirectly  
through you, then the only way you could satisfy  
both it and this License would be to refrain entirely  
from distribution of the Library.  
NO WARRANTY  
15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF  
CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE  
LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICA-  
BLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN  
WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR  
OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY “AS IS”  
WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER  
EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT  
LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MER-  
CHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR  
PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY  
AND PERFORMANCE OF THE LIBRARY IS WITH  
YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE,  
YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERV-  
ICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.  
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unen-  
forceable under any particular  
circumstance, the balance of the section is intended  
to apply, and the section as a whole is intended to  
apply in other circumstances.  
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to  
infringe any patents or other property right claims  
or to contest validity of any such claims; this section  
has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of  
the free software distribution system which is  
implemented by public license practices. Many peo-  
ple have made generous contributions to the wide  
range of software distributed through that system  
in reliance on consistent application of that system;  
it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is  
willing to distribute software through any other sys-  
tem and a licensee cannot impose that choice.  
16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE  
LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPY-  
RIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY  
MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS  
PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAM-  
AGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCI-  
DENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING  
OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE

what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of  
this License.  
LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS  
OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCU-  
RATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD  
PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPER-  
ATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF SUCH  
HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF  
THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.  
12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is  
restricted in certain countries either by patents or  
by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright  
holder who places the Library under this License  
may add an explicit geographical distribution limi-  
tation excluding those countries, so that distribu-  
tion is permitted only in or among countries not  
thus excluded. In such case, this License incorpo-  
rates the limitation as if written  
in the body of this License.  
13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised  
and/or new versions of the Lesser General Public  
License from time to time. Such new versions will  
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may  
differ in detail to address new problems or con-  
cerns.  
Each version is given a distinguishing version num-  
ber. If the Library specifies a version number of this  
License which applies to it and “any later version,”  
you have the option of following the terms and  
conditions either of that version or of any later ver-  
sion published by the Free Software Foundation. If  
the Library does not specify a license version num-  
ber, you may choose any version ever published by  
the Free Software Foundation.
