Scene
Notes on DVDs and Video CDs
On a video CD with PBC (Playback control) functions,
moving pictures and still pictures are divided into sec-
tions called “Scenes”. Each scene is displayed in the
menu screen and assigned a scene number, enabling
you to locate the scene you want.
Some playback operations of DVDs and Video CDs
may be intentionally fixed by software manufacturers.
As this unit plays DVDs and Video CDs according to
disc content designed by the software manufacturer,
some playback features of the unit may not be available
or other functions may be added.
A scene is composed of one or several tracks.
Refer also to the instructions supplied with the DVDs
and Video CDs. Some DVDs made for business pur-
poses may not be played on the unit.
Types of video CDs
There are two types of video CDs:
Video CDs equipped with PBC (Version 2.0)
PBC (Playback control) functions allow you to interact
with the system via menus, search functions, or other
typical computer-like operations. Moreover, still pictures
of high resolution can be played if they are included in
the disc.
Regional code of the DVD player and DVDs
This DVD player is designed and manufactured
for playback of region “2” encoded DVD soft-
ware. The region code on the labels of some DVD discs
indicates which type of player can play those discs. This
unit can play only DVD discs labeled “2” or “ALL”. If you
try to play any other discs, the message “Check Regional
Code” will appear on the TV screen. Some DVD discs
may not have a region code label even though their play-
back is prohibited by area limits.
2
Video CDs not equipped with PBC (Version 1.1)
Operated in the same way as audio CDs, these discs
allow playback of video pictures as well as sound, but
they are not equipped with PBC.

Before Use (Continued)
Precautions
Storing discs
After playing, store the disc in its case.
Handling the unit
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of
heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct sun-
light, as there may be a considerable temperature
increase inside the car.
When shipping the unit
The original shipping carton and packing materials
come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the
unit as it was originally packed at the factory.
Cleaning discs
When setting up the unit
Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor pic-
ture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean
the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the cen-
ter out.
The picture and sound of a nearby TV, VCR, or radio
may be distorted during playback. In this case, position
the unit away from the TV, VCR, or radio, or turn off the
unit after removing the disc.
To keep the exterior surfaces clean
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray,
near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in
contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will
leave marks on the surface.
Cleaning the unit
Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine,
thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static
spray intended for older vinyl records.
To clean the cabinet
Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty,
use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent
solution. Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol,
benzine, or thinner, as these might damage the surface
of the unit.

Notes
– Actual picture enhancement may vary depending on the
quality of the disc.
– While the DNR2 (expanded level) can provide additional
improvement in the reduction of noise in the video signal, it
may produce undesirable picture artifacts on some discs.
Should this occur, select a more appropriate DNR level (nor-
mal or off).
– Depending on the disc, some picture detail may be lost by
the picture enhancement.
– A DVD audio disc with Dolby Digital or DTS soundtrack may
be played, some DVD audio discs include moving pictures
which may be modified by the above processes.
Dynamic Range Control (DRC)
DVD-V
With the DVD format, you can hear a program’s sound-
track in the most accurate and realistic presentation
possible, thanks to digital audio technology. However,
you may wish to compress the dynamic range of the
audio output (the difference between the loudest sounds
and the quietest ones). Then, you may listen to a movie
at a lower volume without losing clarity of sound. Set
DRC to On for this effect.

are various ways to see what’s available on the disc.
1 Press DISPLAY during playback.
DVD Audio is a new disc format building on the success
of DVD to provide high quality, uncompressed, multi-
channel audio for a new experience in audio quality. A
DVD Audio disc can be identified by the DVD audio logo
on the disc jacket or on the disc itself.
2 Press 3/4 to select Page icon.
3 Press 1/2 to select a page number.
What appears on the screen will vary from disc to disc
because the information available depends upon the way the
disc was created.
DVD Audio can provide higher quality stereo than Audio
CDs with a sampling rate of up to 192kHz (compared to
44.1kHz for CDs). DVD Audio digital sound can be
delivered with up to 24 bits of data (compared to 16 bits
for a standard CD).
Note
Since the authoring of DVD Audio Discs varies, some of
the on-screen display choices might not be available for
the disc you’re playing.
A typical DVD Audio disc contains up to seven times the
data capacity of a CD. This additional space is used for
music, either Advanced Resolution multi-channel sound
quality that is closer to the artist’s master recording or
for longer recordings. Many DVD Audio discs contain
on-screen text, such as artist biographies, playlists, or
lyrics. Some DVD Audio discs contain photo galleries or
video clips.
Note
To enjoy maximum sound quality and surround effect of
DVD Audio, you must use 5.1 channel analog audio output
(5.1CH AUDIO OUT jacks on the DVD Player). If you use
the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) for your audio
connection, the sound will only be similar to CD-quality
sound even though you’re playing a DVD Audio disc and
might not have surround effect.

Moving to another GROUP
DVD-A
Some DVD Audio discs divide content into different
groups. Your player enables you to quickly access
different groups during playback via the on-screen
display.
1 Press DISPLAY during playback or in stop mode.
2 Press 3/4 to select Group icon.
3 Press 1/2 or the numbered buttons (0-9) to select a
group number.
Note
Sometimes the author of the disc creates hidden con-
tent that can only be accessed by entering a password.
If the lock icon appears on the TV screen, enter the
password (sometimes you’ll find it on the disc’s jacket
cover or on a web site). This password control isn’t dic-
tated by your DVD Player — it is a function of the disc.
Since the authoring of DVD Audio Discs varies, some of
the on-screen display choices might not be available for
the disc you’re playing.

z An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using the
MPEG1 audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call
files that have the “.mp3” file extension “MP3 files”.
z The player can not read an MP3 file that has a file
extension other than “.mp3”.
The DVD Player can play MP3/WMA formatted record-
ings on CD-ROM, CD-R or CD-RW discs.
Before playing MP3/WMA recordings, read the notes on

22.05 - 44.1kHz (WMA)
2. Bit rate / within 32 - 320kbps (MP3),

The MP3/WMA menu appears on the TV screen.
Press RETURN to move to the MP3/WMA-JPEG
choice menu.
3. CD-R physical format should be “ISO 9660”
4. If you record MP3/WMA files using the software
which cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example
“Direct-CD” etc., it is impossible to playback
MP3/WMA files. We recommend that you use “Easy
CD Creator”, which creates an ISO9660 file system.
5. A single session disc requires MP3/WMA files in the
first track. If there is no MP3/WMA file in the 1st
track, it cannot playback MP3/WMA files. If you wish
to playback MP3/WMA files, format all the data in
the disc or use a new one.
