Introduction

* Note on Region Code

DVD players and DVD VIDEOs have their own Region

Code numbers. This system can only play back a DVD

VIDEO recorded with the Region Code number and video format mentioned below.

For your available Region Code, check the rear panel of your main unit.

This system can play back only DVD VIDEOs whose

Region Code numbers include “2”.

Examples:

If a DVD VIDEO with an improper Region Code number is loaded, “REGION CODE ERROR!” appears on the TV screen and playback cannot start.

• On some DVD VIDEOs, DVD AUDIOs, VCDs or SVCDs, their actual operation may be different from what is explained in this manual. This is due to the disc programming and disc structure, not a malfunction of this system.

Notes on DVD-R and DVD-RW

• This system can also play finalized DVD-Rs or DVD-

RWs recorded in DVD-Video format.

Notes on CD-R and CD-RW

• This system can also play CD-Rs or CD-RWs if MP3,

WMA, and JPEG files are recorded on them with ISO

9660 format.

• This system supports “multi-session” discs (up to 20 sessions).

• This system cannot play “packet write” (UDF format) discs. Some discs may not be played back because of their disc characteristics, recording conditions, or damage or stain on them.

Discs that cannot be played back

• The following discs cannot be played back:

DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, DVD-R/-RW (recorded in VR format), CD-ROM, CD-I (CD-I Ready), Photo CD,

SACD, etc.

Playing back these discs will generate noise and damage the speakers.

Damaged discs and discs in an extraordinary shape

(other than a disc of 12 cm or 8 cm) cannot be played back.

Caution for DualDisc playback

The non-DVD side of a “DualDisc” does not comply with the “Compact Disc Digital Audio” standard.

Therefore, the use of Non-DVD side of a DualDisc on this product may not be recommended.

About discs (continued)

Notes on all files

• The system can only recognize and play files with one of the following extensions, which can be in any

•

• combination of upper and lower case;

MP3: “.MP3”, “.mp3”

WMA: “.WMA” , “.wma”

• JPEG: “.JPG”, “.JPEG”, “.jpg”, “.jpeg”

• If a character other than single byte English characters is used in the file name of an MP3/WMA/JPEG file, the track/file name will not be displayed correctly.

• The system recognizes up to 150 tracks (files) per group, 99 groups per disc, and the total number of the tracks (files) that the system can play is 1 000.

• Some files may not be played back normally because of their disc characteristics or recording conditions.

For MP3/WMA files

• An off-the-shelf MP3 disc may be played in an order different from that indicated on the label attached to the disc.

• The system supports MP3/WMA files recorded with a bit rate of 32 – 320 kbps and a sampling frequency of

16 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 24 kHz (WMA only), 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, or 48 kHz.

• If the tag information (album name, artist, and track title, etc.) is recorded on a disc, it appears in the file control display on the TV screen.

• We recommend to record each piece of material

(song) at a sample rate of 44.1 kHz and at a data transfer rate of 128 (96 for WMA only) kbps.

• This system cannot play back files encoded with

Multiple Bit Rate (MBR). (MBR is a format to encode a file content at several different bit rates.)

For JPEG files

• We recommend to record a file at 640 x 480 resolution.

• This system can play a baseline JPEG file, excluding monochromatic JPEG files.

• This system can play JPEG data taken with a digital camera conforming to the DCF (Design Rule for

Camera File System) standard (when a function is applied such as the automatic rotation function of a digital camera, data goes beyond the DCF standard, so the image may not be displayed).

• If data has been processed, edited and restored with

PC image editing software, the data may not be displayed.

• This system cannot play animations such as MOTION

JPEG, or still images (TIFF etc.) other than JPEG, and image data with sound.

• An image with a resolution of more than 8 192 x 7 680 pixels cannot be displayed.

Disc structure

DVD VIDEO

A DVD VIDEO consists of “titles” and each title may be divided into “chapters”.

Title 1 Title 2

Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 1 Chapter 2

DVD AUDIO

A DVD AUDIO consists of “groups” and each group may be divided into “tracks”.

Some discs include a “bonus group” that requires a password for playing (page 27).

Group 1 Group 2

Track 1 Track 2 Track 3 Track 1 Track 2

VCD/SVCD/CD

VCD, SVCD and CD consist of “tracks”.

In general, each track has its own track number.

(On some discs, each track may also be further divided by indexes.)

Track 1 Track 2 Track 3 Track 4 Track 5

MP3/WMA [JPEG] discs

On an MP3/WMA [JPEG] disc, each still picture

(material) is recorded as a track [file]. Tracks [Files] are usually grouped into a folder. Folders can also include other folders, creating hierarchical folder layers.

This unit simplifies the hierarchical construction of a disc and manages folders by “groups”.

Group 1 Group 2

Track 1

[File 1]

Track 2

[File 2]

Group 3 Group 4 Group 5

This product can recognize up to 1 000 tracks

[files] in a disc. Also, the product can recognize up to 150 tracks [files] per group and up to 99 groups in a disc. Since the unit ignores the tracks [files] whose numbers are exceeding 150 and the groups whose numbers are exceeding 99, they cannot be played back.

• If there is any type of files other than MP3/WMA

[JPEG] files in a folder, those files are also counted in the total file number.

Using the RDS

Using the RDS (Radio

Data System) when receiving FM stations

RDS allows FM stations to send an additional signal along with their regular program signals. For example, the stations send their station names, as well as information about what type of program they broadcast, such as sports or music, etc.

When tuned in to an FM station which provides the

RDS service, the RDS indicator lights up on the display window.

With the system, you can receive the following types of RDS signals:

PS

(Program Service)

PTY

(Program Type)

RT

(Radio Text)

Enhanced Other

Network

Shows commonly known station names.

Shows types of broadcast programs.

Shows text messages the station sends.

See page 36.

NOTE

• RDS is not available for AM (MW) broadcasts.

• RDS may not operate correctly if the station tuned is not transmitting RDS signal properly or if the signal strength is weak.


To show the RDS signals information

Press RDS DISPLAY while listening to an FM station.

Each time you press the button, the indication on the display window changes.

Frequency

While searching, “PS” appears and then the station names will be displayed.

“NO PS” appears if no signal is sent.

While searching, “PTY” appears and then the type of the broadcast program will be displayed. “NO PTY” appears if no signal is sent.

While searching, “RT” appears and then text messages the station sends will be displayed. “NO RT” appears if no signal is sent.

Station frequency (non-RDS service).

About characters shown on the display window

When PS, PTY, or RT signals appear on the display window, some special characters and marks may not be displayed correctly.

NOTE

If searching finishes at once, “PS”, “PTY”, and “RT” will not appear on the display window.

34


Searching for a program by PTY codes

One of the advantages of the RDS service is that you can locate a particular kind of program from the preset channels (page 33) by specifying the

PTY codes.

To search for a program using the PTY codes

NOTE

Before you start operation;

• The PTY Search is only applicable to preset stations.

• To stop searching any time during the process, press PTY SEARCH while searching.

• There is a time limit in doing the following steps. If the setting is canceled before you finish, start from step

The system continues tuning in to the current station.

When a station starts broadcasting the program you have selected, the system automatically switches to the station. The indicator of received

PTY code starts flashing.

When the program is over, the system goes back to the previously tuned station, but the Enhanced

Other Network function still remains activated.


Case 2

If the FM station you are listening to is broadcasting the program you have selected

The system continues to receive the station but the indicator of received PTY code starts flashing.

When the program is over, the indicator of received

PTY code stops flashing and remains lit, but the

Enhanced Other Network function still remains activated.

NOTE

• In Enhanced Other Network standby mode, if you change the source to play, Enhanced Other

Network standby mode is canceled temporarily.

• If you change the source to FM again, the system returns to Enhanced Other Network standby mode.

• Enhanced Other Network data sent from some stations may not be compatible with this system.

• Enhanced Other Network does not function for some FM stations with RDS service.

• While listening to a program tuned in by the

Enhanced Other Network function, the station does not change even if another network station starts broadcasting a program of the same Enhanced

Other Network data.

• While listening to a program tuned in by the

Enhanced Other Network function, you can only use

TA/News/Info and RDS DISPLAY as the tuner operation buttons.
