Before making connections
• Do not connect the AC power cord until all other
connections have been made.
• Connect VIDEO OUT of the player directly to the video
input of your TV. Connecting VIDEO OUT of the player to a
TV via a VCR may cause a monitor problem when playing
back a copy-protected disc. You may also have a monitor
problem when connecting the player to an integrated TV/
Video system.
Preparations
NOTE
If your TV has an AV COMPU LINK terminal, you can use the AV
COMPU LINK function. See “AV COMPU LINK remote control
system” on page 29 for details.
• In the following description, “TV” may be substituted with
“monitor” or “projector.”
• Terminal names used for other components may be different
from those used in the following description.
Connections
Before using the player, connect the player to a TV and/or
amplifier.
Preparations
Connecting to a TV
The following sections A to C describe TV connections where
only a TV is connected to the player so that you will hear audio
from the TV.
NOTES
• Do not connect an S-video cable to the S-VIDEO output of the
player. If you do so, you will not be able to obtain correct signals
from the VIDEO jack of the player.
• If your TV has a monaural audio input instead of stereo, you
need to use an optional audio cable which converts stereo
audio output to monaural.

C Connecting to a TV with component jacks
Hint
You can enjoy picture of high-fidelity color reproduction by
connecting the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks on the player to
your TV.
Depending on the source material format, DVD VIDEO discs can
be classified into two types; film source and video source (note
that some DVD VIDEO discs contain both film source and video
source). Film sources are recorded as 24-frame-per-second
information, while (NTSC) video sources are recorded as 30frame-per-second (60-field-per-second interlaced) information.
When the player plays back a film source material, Progressive
(uninterlaced) signals are created using the original information.
When a video source material is played back, the unit interleaves
lines between the interlaced lines on each to create the
interpolated picture and outputs as the progressive signal.
NOTES
• Connect “Y” to “Y,” “PB” to “PB” (CB), “PR” to “PR” (CR) correctly.
• When using the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks, do not
connect the S-VIDEO output jack on the player.
• If your TV has component video input jacks of BNC type, use an
adapter which converts a pin jack to a BNC jack (not supplied).
Progressive scan video playback available
In the Progressive scanning mode, you can enjoy high quality
picture with less flickers when the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT
jacks are connected to a TV or monitor that supports the
progressive video input.
NTSC
Set the PAL/NTSC selector to
“PAL” or “NTSC” to match the
color system of your TV.

Connecting to a digital audio device
NOTES
You can enjoy sound of enhanced quality by connecting the
player’s DIGITAL OUT (either OPTICAL or COAXIAL) jack to a
digital input of an amplifier, etc., using an optical or coaxial digital
cable. The digital audio signal on a disc will be transferred directly
from the player. If the connected digital audio equipment is a
Dolby Digital or DTS decoder or an amplifier with a built-in
decoder, you can enjoy high-quality surround sound.
• Connect the player and the digital audio device by using either
an optical digital cable or a coaxial digital cable.
• It is not recommended to use the digital jacks for dubbing.
When recording the sounds (DVD VIDEO, SVCD, Video CD or
Audio CD) played back on the player, record them through the
analog jacks.
• Depending on the disc, no signal may be output from the
DIGITAL OUT. Make an analog connection in this case.
• Set [DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT] in the [AUDIO] preference
display correctly according to the connected digital audio
equipment. If setting made for [DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT] is
incorrect, loud noise may be generated causing damage to
the speakers (see page 26).

When the resume mode is “DISC RESUME”
The player memorizes interrupted positions for the last 30 discs

Restarting playback after stopping
(resuming playback)
• If you change the [RESUME] setting from [DISC RESUME] to
[OFF] or [ON], you cannot resume playback of a disc whose
“resuming” position is stored. However, when you again set
[RESUME] to [DISC RESUME], you will then be able to resume
playback of the disc.
• If you interrupt the playback of a disc for which an interrupted
position has already been stored, the memory will be updated
with the new interrupted position.
• For a double-sided DVD VIDEO disc, the player regards each
side as a different disc. Therefore, to resume playback of such a
disc, the disc must be inserted with the same side down.
• When the player memorizes an interrupted point for a disc, it
also memorizes Audio, Subtitle and Angle settings.
• The player may not resume playback exactly from the
interrupted point. In the case of an SVCD/Video CD disc with
PBC function, the player may resume playback from a point
slightly earlier or later than the point where playback was
interrupted.
About On-screen guide icons
The player resumes playback from the position you interrupted
playback, as long as the disc you interrupted playback is still on
the disc tray.
This is because the player’s resume mode is set to ON when you
purchased the player.
When the resume mode is set to ON, the player memorizes the
position on a disc where you interrupted playback.
• When you press 7 to interrupt playback, the TV screen shows
[RESUME STOP] and the [RESUME] indicator lights up in the
display window.
• When you re-start playback, the TV screen shows [RESUME
PLAY].
You may see the following icons displayed over the picture.
They have the following meanings.
: Appears at the beginning of playback mode.
: Appears at the beginning of pause mode.
: Appears at the beginning of fast forward/backward
playback with the current speed (see page 11).
: Appears at the beginning of slow-motion playback
with the current speed (see page 11).
Hint
The memory of the interrupted position is not cleared even if you
turn off the player.
To play back from the beginning
Press 7 while the disc is stopped.
The memory is cleared.
Then press 3 (SELECT).
NOTES
• The player remembers the interrupted position even if you turn
the power off.
• The memory is cleared if you open the disc tray.
: Appears at the beginning of a scene recorded from
multiple angles (see page 16).
: Appears at the beginning of a scene recorded with
multiple audio languages (see page 16).
: Appears at the beginning of a scene recorded with

You can change the setting so that the on-screen guide icons
do not appear on the TV screen (see page 26).
About screen saver function
A television monitor may have an image burned into it if a static
image is displayed for a long time. To prevent this, the player
automatically activates the screen saver function if a static
picture, such as an on-screen display or menu, is displayed
while no button is pressed for over 5 minutes.
When the screen saver function is activated, the TV screen
gets darker.
Pressing any buttons will release the screen saver function.
You can set the screen saver function to ON or OFF (see page

Appendix D: Glossary
480i/480p
Indicates the number of scanning lines and scanning format of an
image signal. 480i indicates 480 scanning lines with interlace
format, and 480p indicates 480 scanning lines with progressive
format.
Interlaced scanning
In a conventional video system, a picture is shown on the display
monitor in between lines of two halves. The Interlaced scanning
system places lines of the second half of the picture in-between
lines of the first half of the picture.
Aspect ratio
A ratio which defines the shape of the rectangular picture in a TV.
It is the width of the picture relative to the height. A conventional
TV picture is 4:3 in aspect ratio.
JPEG
A popular file format for still image compression and storage.
JPEG stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group.
There are three sub-types of the JPEG format as follows.
• baseline JPEG: used for digital cameras, the web, etc.
• progressive JPEG: used for the web
• lossless JPEG: an old type, rarely used now
Chapter/title
Chapter is the smallest division and title is the largest division on
DVD VIDEO. A chapter is a division of a title and similar to a track
for Video CD or Audio CD.
Component video
Video signals with three channels of separate information that
makes up the picture. There are some types of component video,
such as R/G/B and Y/CB(PB)/CR(PR).
Composite video
A single video signal commonly used in most consumer video
products that contains all luminance, color, and synchronization
information.
Dolby Digital (AC3)
A six-channel system consisting of left, center, right, left rear,
right rear and LFE (Low-Frequency Effect channel, for use with a
sub-woofer) channels. All processing is done in the digital
domain. Not all Dolby Digital discs contain six (5.1) channels of
information.
Dolby Surround/Dolby Pro Logic
Dolby Surround records four channels of front and rear audio in
two channels in a way that allows a decoder to recover the
original four channels for playback. Because the audio is
recorded in two channels, it can be played back naturally by a
two-channel stereo system.
Dolby Pro Logic introduces directional circuits in decoder-side
processing (increasing the level of specific channels and lowering
the level of silent channels) for greater spatial perspective, and
adds a center speaker used primarily for dialog. The result is
enhanced channel separation.
Down-mix
Internal stereo mix of multichannel surround audio by a DVD
player. The down-mix signals are output from stereo output
connectors.
DTS
A Digital Surround audio encoding format configured with six
(5.1) channels, similar to Dolby Digital. It requires a decoder,
either in the player or in an external receiver. DTS stands for
Digital Theater Systems.
Not all DTS discs contain six (5.1) channels of information.
Dynamic range
The difference between the loudest and softest sounds.

Linear PCM audio
PCM stands for “pulse code modulation.” Linear PCM is the usual
method for digitally encoding audio without compression, and is
used for the audio tracks on DVD VIDEO discs, Audio CDs, etc.
MP3
MP3 is an audio data compression format, which stands for
MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3. Using MP3, you can achieve a data
reduction of about 1:10.
MPEG Multichannel
This feature expands the 5.1 channel audio format recorded on
the disc to a 7.1 channel format. The further expansion of the 5.1
channel audio makes it easy for you to reproduce the movie
theater experience in your own home.
NTSC (National television system committee)
A black and white and color television system format used in the
U.S.A., Canada, Mexico and Japan.
PAL (Phase Alternation by Line)
A color television system format used extensively in Western
Europe.
PBC
PBC stands for “Playback control” and is a method of controlling
disc play for Video CDs (VCD). You are able to interact with the
disc through menus.
Progressive scanning
Progressive scanning displays all the horizontal lines of a picture
at one time, as a single frame. A progressive scanning DVD
player converts the interlaced (480i) video from DVD into
progressive (480p) format for connection to a progressive display.
It dramatically increases the vertical resolution.
S-video
A video signal which improves picture quality over standard
composite connections. Used on Super VHS, DVD, high end TV
monitors, etc.
Track
The smallest division on SVCD, Video CD and Audio CD discs.
WMA
WMA is an abbreviation of “Windows Media Audio,” and is an
audio data compression format developed by Microsoft
Corporation. Sound quality of data compressed using WMA is
the same as that of MP3, though the WMA file size is smaller
than that of MP3.

Additional information
Bitstream
The digital form of multichannel audio data (e.g., 5.1-channel)
before it is decoded into its various channels.
