Do not use the following types of disc!

• LD, CD-G, CD-I, CD-ROM and DVD-ROM cannot be played on this player.

If such discs are played, a " WRONG DISC FORMAT " message appears on the TV screen.

• DVD discs purchased abroad may not play on this player.

If such discs are played, a " WRONG REGION CODE " message appears on the TV screen.

Copy Protection

• Many DVD discs are encoded with copy protection. Because of this, you should only connect your

DVD player directly to your TV, not to a VCR. Connecting to a VCR results in a distorted picture from copy-protected DVD discs.

• This product incorporates copyright protection technology that is protected by methods claims of certain

U.S. patents and other intellectual property rights owned by Macro-vision Corporation and other rights owners. Use of this copyright protection technology must be authorized by Macro-vision Corporation, and is intended for home and other limited viewing uses only unless otherwise authorized by Macro-vision

Corporation. Reverse engineering or disassembly is prohibited.

Disc Recording Format

CD-R Discs

• Depending on the disc recording device (CD-Recorder or PC ) and the condition of the disc, some CD-R discs may not be playable.

• Use a 650MB/74 minute CD-R. Avoid CD-R media, as they may not be playable.

• If possible, do not use CD-RW (Rewritable) media, as they may not be playable.

• Only the CD-Rs that are properly "closed" can be fully played. If the session is closed but the disc is left open, you may not be able to fully play the disc.

CD-R MP3 Discs

• Only CD-R discs with MP3 files in ISO 9660 or Joliet format can be played.

• MP3 file names should be 8 characters or less in length and contain no blank spaces or special characters (. / = +).

• If the name of a file is in Korean, the name will be displayed on the TV screen in Korean and * will be shown in the display of the main unit.

• Use discs recorded with a compression/decompression data rate greater than 128Kbps.

• Only files with the ".mp3" and ".MP3" extensions can be played.

• Only a consecutively written Multisession disc can be played. If there is a blank segment in the Multisession disc, the disc can be played only up to the blank segment.

• If the disc is not closed, it will take longer to begin playback and not all of the recorded files may be played.

• For files encoded in Variable Bit Rate (VBR) format, i.e. files encoded in both low bit rate and high bit rate (e.g.,

32Kbps ~ 320Kbps), the sound may skip during playback.

• If more than 500 tracks are recorded on a single CD, a maximum of 500 tracks can be played.

• If more than 300 folders are recorded on a single CD, a maximum of 300 folders can be played.

What is MP3?

MP3 is short for MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3 and MPEG is an acronym for Moving Pictures Experts

Group. MP3 is a file format with compression ratio of 1:12 (128 Kbps*) That is, you can use MP3 format to record about 12 times the usual amount of data on a regular CD.

CD-R JPEG Discs

• Only files with the ".jpeg" and ".JPEG" extensions can be played.

• If the disc is not closed, it will take longer to start playing and not all of the recorded files may be played.

• Only CD-R discs with JPEG files in ISO 9660 or Joliet format can be played.

• JPEG file names should be 8 characters or less in length and contain no blank spaces or special characters (. / = +).

• Only a consecutively written multisession disc can be played. If there is a blank segment in the multisession disc, the disc can be played only up to the blank segment.

• A maximum of 9,999 images can be stored on a single CD.

Position of the DVD Player

•

Place it on a stand or cabinet shelf, or under the TV stand.

Front Speakers L R

• Place these speakers in front of your listening position, facing inwards (about 45°) toward you.

• Place the speakers so that their tweeters will be at the same height as your ear.

• Align the front face of the front speakers with the front face of the center speaker or place them slightly in front of the center speakers.

Center Speaker C

•

It is best to install it at the same height as the front speakers.

•

You can also install it directly over or under the TV.

11

Selecting the Listening Position

The listening position should be located about 2.5 to 3 times the distance of the TV's screen size away from the

TV. Example: For 32" TVs 2~2.4m (6~8feet)

For 55" TVs 3.5~4m (11~13feet)

Rear Speakers LS RS

• Place these speakers behind your listening position.

• If there isn't enough room, place these speakers to face each other.

• Place them about 60 to 90cm (2 to 3feet) above your ear, facing slightly downward.

* Unlike the front and center speakers, the rear speakers are used to handle mainly sound effects and sound will not come from them all the time.

Subwoofer SW

• The position of the subwoofer is not so critical.

Place it anywhere you like.

• Usually, it is placed by a corner near the front speakers.

COAXIAL terminal as a temporary measure.

2. Slowly move the antenna wire around until you find a location where reception is good, then fasten it to a wall or other rigid surface.

• If reception is poor, connect an outdoor antenna.

Before attaching a 75

Ω coaxial cable (with a standard type connector), disconnect the supplied FM antenna.

Cooling Fan

AM (MW/LW) antenna connection

1. Connect the AM loop antenna supplied to the AM and terminals.

2. If reception is poor, connect an outdoor single vinyl-covered wire to the AM terminal. (Keep the AM loop antenna connected).

The cooling fan dissipates the heat generated inside the unit so that the unit can be operated normally. The cooling fan is activated automatically to supply cool air to the unit.

Please observe the following cautions for your safety.

• Make sure the unit is well-ventilated. If the unit has poor ventilation, the temperature inside the unit could rise and may damage it.

• Do not obstruct the cooling fan or ventilation holes. (If the cooling fan or ventilation holes are covered with a newspaper or cloth, heat may build up inside the unit and fire may result.)

If you television is equipped with an S-Video input, connect an S-Video cable (not supplied) from the S-VIDEO OUT jack on the back panel of the system to the S-VIDEO IN jack on your television.

Component Video (Best Quality)

If your television is equipped with Component Video inputs, connect a component video cable (not supplied) from the Pr, Pb and Y jacks on the back panel of the system to the corresponding jacks on your television.

P.SCAN

(Progressive Scan)

Function

Unlike a regular Interlace Scan in which two fields of picture information are alternated to create the entire picture (odd scan lines, then even scan lines), Progressive Scan uses one field of information (all lines displayed in one pass) to create a clear and detailed picture without visible scan lines. To enjoy a progressive scan video, connect a TV or monitor that supports a progressive scan input to this device.

While the player is in the stop mode, hold the P.SCAN button down for longer than 1 second.

• The selection switches back and forth between " P.SCAN

" and " I.SCAN

" each time the button is held down for a minimum of 1 second.

• The previous mode is indicated in the display first, followed by the selected mode in about a second.

What is Progressive (or Non-Interlaced) Scanning?

Interlaced Scan (1 FRAME = 2 FIELDS) Progressive Scan (FULL FRAME)

In interlaced-scan video, a frame consists of two interlaced fields (odd and even), where each field contains every other horizontal line in the frame.

The odd field of alternating lines is displayed first, and then the even field is displayed to fill in the alternating gaps left by the odd field to form a single frame.

One frame, displayed every 1/30th of a second, contains two interfaced fields, thus a total of 60 fields are displayed every 1/60th of a second each.

The interlaced scanning method is intended for capturing a still object.

The progressive scanning method scans one full frame of video consecutively down the screen, line by line.

As opposed to the interlaced scanning process by which a video image is drawn in a series of passes, you get an entire image drawn at one time.

The progressive scanning method is desirable for dealing with moving objects. A camera that has the ability to capture moving objects is called a "full frame shutter camera".

Note

• This function only works with TV's equipped with component video inputs (Y, P r

, P b

).

• Depending on the brand and model of your TV, this function may not work.
