Features
È High picture quality
Á10 bit video D/A converter
With its 10 bit capability, this D/A converter reproduces fine
images faithfully.
ÁComponent video output
When used with a compatible monitor, a video connection via
the component video output jacks of your new DVD/Video CD/
CD player is capable of the most precise color reproduction in
a video signal.
ÁAn array of picture quality modes yielded by digital
processing
Signal deterioration is kept to the minimum by processing the
data as digital data.
This feature can be used as the picture quality setting individ-
ually tailored for DVD playback.
Cinema Image (See page 21.)
Using the On-Screen Menu Icon enables the cinema mode,
which is best for the playback of movie programs, to be se-
lected.
In addition, the picture quality best suited to the type of soft-
ware programs concerned can be selected. In all, four pic-
ture quality modes are provided: normal, soft, fine and
cinema.
User selection (See page 21.)
Using the On-Screen Menu Icon, the contrast, color hue,
equalizer and brightness can be adjusted to suit your own
preference.
Monitor selector (See page 36.)
Once the type of TV used [Standard (Direct View TV), CRT
Projector, LCD Projector, Projection TV] has been selected
when the initial setting operations are performed, the opti-
mum picture quality for the type of TV concerned will be
automatically selected.
È High sound quality
Á96 kHz/24 bit audio D/A converter
This player enables 96 kHz/24 bit linear PCM signals, which
constitute the highest specifications in the DVD standards, to
be reproduced faithfully. To support 96 kHz sampling/24 bit
sound, the shaping noise of this multi-level digital sigma type
of D/A converter is kept flat up to 44 kHz, thus preventing the
important audio signals from being affected in any way. In
terms of the bottom line, the sound in all of its various modes
is reproduced faithfully.
ÁDolby Digital 5.1ch surround decoder
(See pages 21 and 40.)
The Dolby Digital 5.1ch surround decoder incorporated in
this player comes with speaker mode settings which support
the low-range reproduction capability of the speakers, speak-
er level settings, delay time settings, audio dynamic range
suppression, Cinema Dialogue function to make it easier to
hear movie dialogues, and other features.

control, information on the DVD/Video CD/CD player and disc
can be displayed on the TV screen for easy identification. The
player’s operations and settings can be easily accessed by
operating the cursor buttons on the remote control while moni-
toring the TV screen. The color and position of the On-Screen
Menu Icons can be changed.

Getting Started
Angle
Recorded onto some DVD discs are scenes which have been
simultaneously shot from a number of different angles (the
same scene is shot from the front, from the left side, from the
right side, etc.). With such discs, the ANGLE button can be
used to view the scene from different angles.
Chapter number
These numbers are recorded on DVD discs. A title is subdivid-
ed into many sections, each of which is numbered, and specif-
ic parts of video presentations can be searched quickly using
these numbers.
Digital audio output connector (Optical)
The digital audio output connector (optical) converts electrical
signals into optical signals and transfers them to the amplifier.
Consequently, it has a number of features including its immu-
nity from electrical interference from external sources and its
ability to prevent the generation of noise and its minimal effect
on the external environment.
DVD
This refers to a high-density optical disc on which high-quality
pictures and sound have been recorded by means of digital
signals. Incorporating a new video compression technology
(MPEG 2) and high-density recording technology, DVD en-
ables esthetically pleasing full-motion video to be recorded
over long periods of time (for instance, a whole movie can be
recorded).
DVD has a structure consisting of two 0.6 mm thin discs which
are adhered to each other. Since the thinner the disc, the high-
er the density at which the information can be recorded, a DVD
disc has a greater capacity than a single 1.2 mm thick disc.
Since the two thin discs are adhered to each other, there is the
potential to achieve double-sided play sometime in the future
for even longer duration of play.
Field
Half of the video information (video signal) in a frame is called
a field. With conventional TV systems, a signal frame (a single
screen) consists of two fields.
Field still
Only one field (half of the video information) is displayed on the
TV screen, so the apparent resolution is low. However, there is
no blurring on the screen.
Frame
Individual images in a video or on the TV are called frames.
Frame still
The two fields are displayed, alternately, on the TV screen, so
the image is blurry. However, the image quality is better than
field images.
Playback control
This is recorded on a Video CD (version 2.0). The scenes or
information to be viewed (or listened to) can be selected inter-
actively with the TV monitor by looking at the menu shown on
the TV monitor.
Subtitles
This is the appearance of the dialogue at the bottom of the
screen which are prerecorded on some DVD discs.
Title number
These numbers are recorded on DVD discs. When a disc con-
tains two or more movies, these movies are numbered as title
1, title 2, etc.
Track number
These numbers are assigned to the tracks which are recorded
on Video CDs and CDs. They enable specific tracks to be lo-
cated quickly.
Video CD
This contains recordings of pictures and sound whose quality
is on a par with that of videotape. This player also supports
Video CDs with playback control (version 2.0).

The component video output connector outputs the color dif-
ference signals (C
B, CR) and luminance signal (Y) separately in
order to achieve high fidelity in reproducing colors.
ÁThe description of the component video input connectors
may differ depending on the TV set or monitor (e.g. Y, P
B, PR/
Y, B-Y, R-Y/Y, C
B, CR and so on). Refer to the instruction
manual of your TV set for details.

The S video output connector separates the color (C) and lu-
minance (Y) signals before transmitting them to the TV set in
order to achieve a sharper picture.
Use the S video cable (optional) when connecting the player to
a TV set equipped with an S video input connector for the best
picture clarity possible.

Note:
ÁSome dts decoders which do not support DVD-dts interface
may not work properly with the DVD/Video CD/CD player.
For your reference:
ÁDolby Digital is a digital sound compression technique devel-
oped by the Dolby Laboratories, Inc.
Supporting 5.1-channel surround sound, as well as stereo
(2-channel) sound, this technique enables a large quantity
of sound data to be efficiently recorded on a disc.
ÁLinear PCM is a signal recording format used in a CD. While
a CD is recorded in 44.1 kHz/16 bit, a DVD is recorded in
48 kHz/16 bit up to 96 kHz/24 bit.
ÁIf you have a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder, you will
obtain the full benefit of Pro Logic from the same DVD mov-
ies that provide full 5.1-channel Dolby Digital soundtracks, as
well as from titles with the Dolby Surround mark.

General Picture type
For your reference:
ÁWhen the “2 On” is selected at the “5 Still Picture Display”,
the following screen is displayed in the still picture mode;
ÁI/P/B:
The MPEG 2 standard adopted for DVD uses the following
3 picture types for the coding of each picture (frame) on the
TV screen.
I: I-Picture (Intra coded picture)
This is the standard picture type, and each picture is coded
separately. Since it features the best picture quality, it is rec-
ommended that the screen be frozen with I-Picture when the
picture quality is to be adjusted.
P: P-Picture (Predictive coded picture)
This picture type is computed on the basis of a past I-Picture
or P-Picture.
B: B-Picture (Bidirectionally-predictive coded picture)
This picture type is computed by comparing the previous and
subsequent I-Picture or P-Picture. It has the lowest volume of
information.
Example: in the case of the P-Picture
Still (P)
