General Notes on connections
– If the audio format of the digital output
does not match the capabilities of your
receiver, the receiver will produce a strong,
distorted sound or no sound at all. Make
sure to select the appropriate audio format
at menu screen included on the disc.
Pressing AUDIO once or more may change
not only audio languages but also audio
formats, and the selected format appears
for several seconds on the status window.
Never make or change connections with
the power switched on.
• Depending on the equipment you wish
to connect, there are various ways you
could connect this unit. Possible
connections are shown in the following
drawings.
• Please refer to the manuals of other
equipment as necessary to make the
best connections.
• Do not connect this unit via your VCR.
The video quality could be distorted by
the copy protection system.
• Do not connect this unit’s audio out
jack to the phono in jack of your audio
system.

connect AUDIO OUT L (left) and R (right)
jacks of this unit to corresponding input
jacks of your audio equipment such as

Preparation
S-Video terminal <A>
Video Connections
S (separate) video connection achieves a
clearer picture than composite video
connection by separating color and
luminance when transmitting signals. Use
commercially available S-video cable.
Receiver (and TV) with S-video input is
required.
If your AV receiver has video output jacks,
connect your receiver (and then to your
TV) so that you can use one TV for several
different video sources (LD, VCR, etc.) by
simply switching the input source selector
of your receiver.
The player has 4 types of video output
jacks. Use one of them in accordance with
the input jacks of the equipment to be
connected.
Composite Video terminal <B>
Use the supplied video pin cable when
connecting the player to an AV receiver.
Component Video terminal <C>
Component video connection achieves
high fidelity in reproducing colors (better
performance than S-video connection),
separating video signal into luminance (Y,
terminal color-coded as green), and color
difference (Pb, blue/Pr, red). Use
Video pin
cable

commercially available coaxial cables.
Receiver (and TV) with component input is
required. Observe the color of each jack
when connecting. If your receiver does not
have component output jacks, connecting
the player’s component output directly to
your TV’s component input can reproduce
better video image.

to this unit, you can use this unit’s SCART
output jack.
Note:

cable is connected to the TV set and “DVD”
indication on SCART cable is connected to

Glossary
Analog: Sound that has not been turned into num-
bers.Analog sound varies, while digital sound has
specific numerical values.These jacks send audio
through two channels, the left and right.
MP3: A file format with a sound data compression
system.“MP3” is the abbreviation of Motion Picture
Experts Group 1 (or MPEG-1) Audio Layer 3. By
using MP3 format, one CD-R or CD-RW can con-
tain about 10 times as much data volume as a regu-
lar CD can.
Aspect ratio: The ratio of vertical and horizontal
sizes of a displayed image.The horizontal vs. vertical
ratio of conventionalTVs. is 4:3, and that of wide-
screens is 16:9.
Parental Control: A function of the DVD to limit
playback of the disc by the age of the users accord-
ing to the limitation level in each country.The limita-
tion varies from disc to disc; when it is activated,
playback will be prohibited if the software’s level is
higher than the user-set level.
AUDIO OUT Jacks: Jacks on the back of the
DVD System that send audio to another system (TV,
Stereo, etc.).
Bit Rate:The amount of data used to hold a given
length of music;measured in kilobits per seconds,or
kbps. Or, the speed at which you record. Generally,
the higher the bit rate, or the higher the recording
speed, the better the sound quality. However, higher
bit rates use more space on a Disc.
PCM (Pulse Code Modulation): A system for
converting analog sound signal to digital signal for
later processing, with no data compression used in
conversion.
Playback control (PBC): Refers to the signal
recorded on video CDs or SVCDs for controlling
reproduction. By using menu screens recorded on a
Video CD or SVCD that supports PBC, you can
enjoy interactive-type software as well as software
having a search function.
Chapter: Sections of a picture or a music piece on
a DVD that are smaller than titles.A title is com-
posed of several chapters. Each chapter is assigned a
chapter number enabling you to locate the chapter
you want.
Play list:A list of selected titles to be played back in
a specific order.This option is only available withVR
format and must be created beforehand.
ComponentVideo Out Jacks: Jacks on the back
of the DVD System that send high-quality video to a
TV that has ComponentVideo In jacks (R/G/B,Y/Pb/
Pr, etc.).
Progressive Scan: I.t displays all the horizontal
lines of a picture at one time, as a signal frame.This
system can convert the interlaced video from DVD
into progressive format for connection to a progres-
sive display. It dramatically increases the vertical res-
olution.
Disc menu: A screen display prepared for allowing
selection of images, sounds, subtitles, multi-angles,
etc. recorded on a DVD.
Digital: Sound that has been converted into
numerical values.Digital sound is available when you
use the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT COAXIAL or OPTI-
CAL jacks.These jacks send audio through multiple
channels, instead of just two channels as analog
does.
Region code: A system for allowing discs to be
played back only in the region designated before-
hand.This unit will only play discs that have compat-
ible region codes.You can find the region code of
your unit by looking on the product label. Some
discs are compatible with more than one region (or
ALL regions).
DivX 3.11/4x/5x:The DivX code is a patent pend-
ing, MPEG-4 based video compression technology,
developed by DivXNetworks, Inc., that can shrink
digital video to sizes small enough to be transported
over the internet, while maintaining high visual qual-
ity.
S-Video: Produces a clear picture by sending sepa-
rate signals for the luminance and the color.You can
use S-Video only if yourTV has S- video In jack.
Surround: A system for creating realistic three
dimensional sound fields full of realism by arranging
multiple speakers around the listener.
Dolby Digital: A surround sound system devel-
oped by Dolby Laboratories containing up to six
channels of digital audio (front left and right, sur-

sound system, but it is different from Dolby Digital.
The formats were developed by different companies.
JPEG: A very common digital still picture format.A
still-picture data compression system proposed by
the Joint Photographic Expert Group, which fea-
tures small decrease in image quality in spite of its
high compression ratio.
VIDEO OUT jack: Jack on the back of the DVD
