Notes:
• The supplied batteries should last for about six months, although this will vary with usage.
• If the remote controller doesn’t work reliably, try replacing both batteries.
• Don’t mix new and old batteries, or different types of batteries.
• If you intend not to use the remote controller for a long time, remove the batteries to prevent possible leakage and corrosion.
• Flat batteries should be removed as soon as possible to prevent possible leakage and corrosion.
Notes:
• The remote controller may not work reliably if the
DPC-8.5 is subjected to bright light, such as direct sunlight or inverter-type fluorescent lights. Keep this in mind when installing the DPC-8.5.
• If another remote controller of the same type is used in the same room, or the DPC-8.5 is installed close to equipment that uses infrared rays, the remote controller may not work reliably.
• Don’t put anything, such as a book, on the remote controller, because the buttons may be pressed inadvertently, thereby draining the batteries.
• The remote controller may not work reliably if the
DPC-8.5 is installed in a rack behind colored glass doors. Keep this in mind when installing the DPC-8.5.
• The remote controller will not work if there’s an obstacle between it and the DPC-8.5’s remote control sensor.

Connecting the DPC-8.5
This chapter explains how to connect the DPC-8.5 to your other AV components.
Before Making Any Connections
• Read the manuals supplied with your AV components.
• Don’t connect the power cord until you’ve completed all audio and video connections.
Optical Digital Output
The DPC-8.5’s optical digital output socket has a dust cap for keeping out dust and dirt when it’s not in use.
Remove the cap before inserting an optical plug, and push the plug in all the way to make a good connection.
Keep the dust cap in a safe place for future use.
RCA AV Connection Color Coding
RCA-type AV connections are usually color coded: red, white, and yellow. Use red plugs to connect right-channel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled “R”). Use white plugs to connect left-channel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled “L”). And use yellow plugs to connect composite video inputs and outputs.

Connecting Your TV or Projector
This section explains how to connect the DPC-8.5 to your TV or projector.
The TV handles the audio and video. If your TV has a
Dolby Pro Logic decoder built-in, you’ll be able to enjoy
DVDs and videos that bear the Dolby Surround logo.
To enjoy Dolby Digital or DTS (5.1-channel surround), you’ll need a suitable decoder (see page 23).
The DPC-8.5 has three types of video output: component video, S-Video, and composite video. Component video offers the best picture quality, so if your TV supports it, use a commercially available component video cable to connect one of the DPC-8.5’s COMPONENT VIDEO
OUTPUTs to a component video input on your TV. If your TV supports progressive scanning, you must use component video in order to take advantage of that feature.
See page 47 for more information on progressive scanning.
S-Video offers better picture quality than composite video, so if your TV supports it, use the supplied
S-Video cable to connect one of the DPC-8.5’s S VIDEO
OUTPUTs to an S-Video input on your TV. Failing that, use the supplied composite video cable to connect one of the DPC-8.5’s VIDEO OUTPUTs to a composite video input on your TV.
1
Turn off the DPC-8.5 and your TV, and disconnect their power cords from the wall outlets.
2
Connect the DPC-8.5 to your TV as shown.

Play [ ] button. To cancel the Resume function, press the Stop [ ] button again. The Resume function is reset when another disc is selected.
• With the Last Memory function you can resume playback from a specific point even if another disc has been selected or the disc has been removed (see page 48).
• Do not move the DPC-8.5 or subject it to vibration during playback. Doing so may damage your discs or the DPC-8.5.
• You can improve the picture quality of paused playback with the Pause/Still setting (see page 63).
• Prolonged display of the same picture or menu may cause irreparable damage to your TV screen called
screen burn-in
. To prevent this, don’t keep playback paused for too long and always press the Stop [ ] button when you’ve finished playing a DVD-Video disc or VCD. The DPC-8.5 features a screen saver to protect your TV from the effects of burn-in (see page 63).
• With some DVD-Video discs, you may experience picture noise that is not normally visible with regular
TV broadcasts. This is usually because DVD-Video uses a lot of high-resolution video data. The amount of noise, if any, will depend on your particular TV and the problem can sometimes be alleviated by turning down your TV’s sharpness control.

The full dynamic range is preserved.
On
The dynamic range is reduced.
