Video CDs
This DVD head unit is compatible with playback control (PBC)
compatible video CDs (version 2.0).
“PBC” is a function by which you can use menu screens recorded
on the disc to find the scene you want to watch and view various
types of information in dialog style.
Using compact discs (CD/CD-R/CD-RW)
If you use unspecified compact discs, correct performance cannot
be guaranteed.
You can play CD-Rs (CD-Recordable)/CD-RWs (CDReWritable) which have been recorded only on audio devices.
You can also play CD-Rs/CD-RWs containing MP3/WMA
formatted audio files.
• Some of the following discs may not play on this unit:
Flawed discs, discs with fingerprints, discs exposed to extreme
temperatures or sunlight (e.g., left in the car or this unit), discs
recorded under unstable conditions, discs on which a recording
failed or a re-recording was attempted, copy-protected CDs
which do not conform to the audio CD industry standard.
• Use discs with MP3/WMA files written in a format compliant
with ISO9660 level 1 or level 2. For details, see pages 16 and
17.
To customers using CD-R/CD-RW
• If a CD-R/CD-RW cannot be played back, make sure the last
recording session was closed (finalized).
• Finalize the CD-R/CD-RW if necessary, and attempt playback
again.
Tips for making your own CDs
The DVA-5210 plays DVD Video, Video CD, Audio CD and has
a built in MP3/WMA decoder.
The following information is designed to help you create your
own music CDs (either Audio CD or MP3/WMA encoded CD-R/
RW files).
What is the difference between an Audio and MP3/WMA
CD?
An Audio CD is the same format as the commercial CDs you buy
in the store (also known as CD-DA). MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer
3)/WMA (Windows Media Audio) is a data file that uses a
compression scheme to reduce the size of the music file.*
Hybrid Audio CD and Data (MP3/WMA) CD-R/RW discs:
The DVA-5210 can read either sector on the disc. Choose CD-DA
to play the CD audio section or MP3/WMA to play the MP3/
WMA section.*
Continued
5-EN
Multisession CD-R/RW:
Once a recording has been stopped, this is considered one
session. If the disc is not closed (finalized), additional data may
be added. Once this additional data has been recorded, this
becomes a “multisession” CD. The DVA-5210 can only read
multisession DATA Formatted discs (MP3/WMA files - Not
Audio CD files).
MP3 ID3 Tag/WMA Tag Information:
The DVA-5210 read and displays MP3 ID3v1 tag or WMA tag
information. MP3 files created with ID3v2 tag information can be
played back but the tag info cannot be read or displayed.
Properly formatted MP3/WMA Discs:
Use ISO9660 formatting to insure proper playback. You may use
standard ISO naming Level 1 (8.3 DOS standard), Level 2 (32
characters) or Joliet (Windows or Macintosh long filenames) file
naming conventions*.
*Please consult the Owner’s manual for additional information.
On handling compact discs (CD/CD-R/CD-RW)
• Do not touch the surface.
• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight.
• Do not affix stickers or labels.
• Clean the disc when it is dusty.
• Make sure that the disc is smooth and flat.
• Do not use commercially available disc accessories.
Do not leave the disc in the car or the unit for a long time.
Never expose the disc to direct sunlight.
Heat and humidity may damage the disc and you may not be
able to play it again.

CAUTION
Except for private use, duplicating audio data (including MP3/
WMA data) or distributing, transferring, or copying it, whether
for free or for a fee, without permission of the copyright holder is
strictly prohibited by the Copyright Act and by international
treaty.
What is MP3?
MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3) is a compression standard
prescribed by the ISO, the International Standardization
Organization and MPEG, which is a joint activity institution of
the IEC.
MP3 files contain compressed audio data. MP3 encoding is
capable of compressing audio data at extremely high ratios,
reducing the size of music files to as much as one-tenth their
original size. This is achieved while still maintaining near CD
quality. The MP3 format realizes such high compression ratios
by eliminating the sounds that are either inaudible to the
human ear or masked by other sounds.
What is WMA?
WMA, or “Windows Media™ Audio,” is compressed audio
data.
WMA allows you to create music files and store them at higher
ratios of compression than MP3 audio data (approx. half
original size). This is achieved while still maintaining CD
quality sound.
Method for creating MP3/WMA files
Audio data is compressed by using MP3/WMA specified
software. For details on creating MP3/WMA files, refer to the
user's manual for that software.
MP3/WMA files that can be played back by this device have
the file extension “mp3”/“rmp”, “wma”. Files with no extension
cannot be played back. (WMA ver. 7.1 and 8 are supported)
Sampling rates: 32 kHz - 48 kHz
Bit rates:32 - 192 kbps
Note that for sampling rates such as 22.05 kHz, this device
may not display correctly.
ID3 tags/WMA tags
This device supports ID3 tag v1 and WMA tag.
If tag data is in an MP3/WMA file, this device can display the
title (track title), artist name, and album name ID3 tag/WMA
tag data.
This device can only display single-byte alphanumeric
characters and the underscore.
Producing MP3/WMA discs
MP3/WMA files are prepared, then written to a CD-R or CDRW using CD-R writing software. A disc can hold a maximum
of 255 files, and 255 folders.
Media supported
The media that this device can play back are CD-ROMs, CDRs, and CD-RWs.
16-EN
Corresponding File Systems
This device supports discs formatted with ISO9660 Level 1 or
Level 2.
Under the ISO9660 standard, there are some restrictions to
remember.
The maximum nested folder depth is 8 (including the root
directory). File/folder names are limited to 31 characters
(including the extension).
Valid characters for folder/file names are letters A-Z (all
caps), numbers 0-9, and ‘_’ (underscore).
This device also can play back discs in Joliet, etc., and other
standards that conform to ISO9660. However, sometimes the
file names, folder names, etc., are not displayed correctly.
Formats supported
This device supports CD-ROM XA, Mixed Mode CD,
Enhanced CD (CD-Extra) and Multi-Session.
This device cannot correctly play back discs recorded with
Track At Once or packet writing.
Order of files
The unit plays the files in the order that the writing software
writes them. Therefore, the playing order may not be the same
as the order you input. The playback order of the folders and
files is as follows. However, the folder and file playback order
differs from the folder no. and file no. indicated on the display.
Terminology
Bit rate
This is the “sound” compression rate specified for encoding. The
higher the bit rate, the higher the sound quality, but also the larger
the files.
Sampling rate
This value shows how many times per second the data is sampled
(recorded). For example, music CDs use a sampling rate of 44.1
kHz, so the sound is sampled (recorded) 44,100 times per second.
The higher the sampling rate, the higher the sound quality, but also
the larger the volume of data.
Encoding
Converting music CDs, WAVE (AIFF) files, and other sound files
into the specified audio compression format.
Tag
Song information such as track title, artist name, album name, etc.,
written into MP3/WMA files.
MP3: ID3 tag
WMA: WMA tag

The root folder is found at the top of the file system. The root folder

Information
About DVDs
Music CDs and DVDs have grooves (tracks) in which the
digital data is recorded. The data is represented as
microscopic pits recorded into the track – these pits are read
by a laser beam to play the disc. On DVDs, the density of the
tracks and pits is twice that of CDs, so DVDs can contain more
data in less space.

In addition, DVDs offer a variety of functions.
• Multiple audio* (page 12)
Movies can be recorded in up to eight languages. The
desired language can be selected from the remote control.
• Subtitles function* (page 12)
Movies can include subtitles in up to 32 languages. The

control.
• Multi angle function* (page 12)
When the DVD contains a movie shot from multiple angles,
the desired angle can be selected from the remote control.
• Multi story function*
With this function, a single movie includes various story
lines. You can select different story lines to view various
versions of the same movie.
Operation differs from disc to disc. Story line selection
screens including instructions appear during the movie.
Just follow the instructions.
* The functions, audio languages, subtitle languages, angles, etc.,
differ from disc to disc. For details, refer to the disc’s instructions.
A 12 cm disc can contain one movie or about four hours of music.
In addition, DVDs provide sharp picture quality with vivid colors
thanks to a horizontal resolution of over 500 lines (compared to less
than 300 for VHS tape). With the addition of an optional, digital audio
processor (PXA-H900, PXA-H510, PXA-H700), you can recreate the
power and presence of a movie theater with Dolby Digital 5.1-channel
Surround.

Te rminology
Dolby Digital
Dolby Digital is a digital audio compression technology
developed by Dolby Laboratories that allows large quantities
of audio data to be efficiently recorded on discs. It is
compatible with audio signals from mono (1 channel) all the
way up to 5.1-channel surround sound. The signals for the
different channels are completely independent, and since the
sound is high quality digital there is no loss of sound quality.
* The separately sold digital audio processor (PXA-H510, PXA-
H900, PXA-H700) is required to enjoy full 5.1-channel surround
sound.
The DVA-5210 performs Dolby Digital decoding when it
outputs analog audio signals; 2-channel audio, not 5.1channel.

encoded in Dolby Surround. Pro logic decoding will provide
you with four channels of sound (front left/right, center and
monaural rear surround) from a 2-channel (stereo) source.
* The separately sold digital audio processor (PXA-H510, PXA-
H900) is required to enjoy Dolby Pro Logic surround sound.
Dolby Pro Logic II
Dolby Pro Logic II plays 2-channel sources in 5 channels over
the entire frequency range.
This is done with an advanced, high sound quality matrix
surround decoder which draws out the spatial properties of the
original recording without adding any sounds to or changing
the sound of the source.
* The separately sold digital audio processor (PXA-H700) is
required to enjoy Dolby Pro Logic II surround sound.
Linear PCM audio (LPCM)
LPCM is a signal recording format used for music CDs.
Whereas music CDs are recorded at 44.1 kHz/16 bits, DVDs
are recorded at 48 kHz/16 bits to 96 kHz/24 bits, thereby
achieving higher sound quality than music CDs.
Rating levels (parental lock)
This is a DVD function for restricting the viewing age as
stipulated by censorship laws in different countries. The way
in which viewing is restricted differs from DVD to DVD.
Sometimes the DVD cannot be played at all, other times
certain scenes are skipped, and other times certain scenes
are replaced with other scenes.

Dolby Digital sound/dts sound
DTS
This is a home-use digital sound format of the DTS Sound
System. This is a high quality sound system, developed by
Digital Theater Systems Corp. for use in movie theaters.
DTS has six independent sound tracks. The theater
presentation is fully realized in the home, etc. DTS is the
abbreviation for Digital Theater System.
*To enjoy DTS surround sound you need the separately sold DTS
digital audio processor (PXA-H900, PXA-H700). The DVD video
software must also have a DTS sound track.
The DVA-5210 has a built-in DTS 2-channel audio decoder.

Installation and Connections
Before installing or connecting the unit, please read the
following and pages 3 and 4 of this manual thoroughly
for proper use.
Warning
MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS.
Failure to make the proper connections may result in fire or
product damage.
USE ONLY IN CARS WITH A 12 VOLT NEGATIVE GROUND.
(Check with your dealer if you are not sure.) Failure to do so may
result in fire, etc.
BEFORE WIRING, DISCONNECT THE CABLE FROM THE
NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL.
Failure to do so may result in electric shock or injury due to
electrical shorts.
DO NOT ALLOW CABLES TO BECOME ENTANGLED IN
SURROUNDING OBJECTS.
Arrange wiring and cables in compliance with the manual to
prevent obstructions when driving. Cables or wiring that obstruct
or hang up on places such as the steering wheel, gear lever, brake
pedals, etc., can be extremely hazardous.
DO NOT SPLICE INTO ELECTRICAL CABLES.
Never cut away cable insulation to supply power to other
equipment. Doing so will exceed the current carrying capacity of
the wire and result in fire or electric shock.
DO NOT DAMAGE PIPE OR WIRING WHEN DRILLING
HOLES.
When drilling holes in the chassis for installation, take
precautions so as not to contact, damage or obstruct pipes, fuel
lines, tanks or electrical wiring. Failure to take such precautions
may result in fire.
DO NOT USE BOLTS OR NUTS IN THE BRAKE OR
STEERING SYSTEMS TO MAKE GROUND CONNECTIONS.
Bolts or nuts used for the brake or steering systems (or any other
safety-related system), or tanks should NEVER be used for
installations or ground connections. Using such parts could
disable control of the vehicle and cause fire, etc.
KEEP SMALL OBJECTS SUCH AS BATTERIES OUT OF THE
REACH OF CHILDREN.
Swallowing them may result in serious injury.
If swallowed, consult a physician immediately.
DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WHICH MIGHT HINDER
VEHICLE OPERATION, SUCH AS THE STEERING WHEEL
OR SHIFT LEVER.
Doing so may obstruct forward vision or hamper movement, etc.,
and result in a serious accident.
Caution
HAVE THE WIRING AND INSTALLATION DONE BY
EXPERTS.
The wiring and installation of this unit requires special technical
skill and experience. To ensure safety, always contact the dealer
where you purchased this product to have the work done.
USE SPECIFIED ACCESSORY PARTS AND INSTALL THEM
SECURELY.
Be sure to use only the specified accessory parts. Use of other
than designated parts may damage this unit internally or may not
securely install the unit in place. This may cause parts to become
loose resulting in hazards or product failure.
ARRANGE THE WIRING SO IT IS NOT CRIMPED OR
PINCHED BY A SHARP METAL EDGE.
Route the cables and wiring away from moving parts (like the
seat rails) or sharp or pointed edges. This will prevent crimping
and damage to the wiring. If wiring passes through a hole in
metal, use a rubber grommet to prevent the wire’s insulation from
being cut by the metal edge of the hole.
DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WITH HIGH MOISTURE
OR DUST.
Avoid installing the unit in locations with high incidence of
moisture or dust. Moisture or dust that penetrates into this unit
may result in product failure.
Precautions
• Be sure to disconnect the cable from the (–) battery post before
installing your DVA-5210. This will reduce any chance of
damage to the unit in case of a short-circuit.
• Be sure to connect the color coded leads according to the
diagram. Incorrect connections may cause the unit to
malfunction or damage to the vehicle's electrical system.
• When making connections to the vehicle's electrical system, be
aware of the factory installed components (e.g. on-board
computer). Do not tap into these leads to provide power for
this unit. When connecting the DVA-5210 to the fuse box,
make sure the fuse for the intended circuit of the DVA-5210
has the appropriate amperage. Failure to do so may result in
damage to the unit and/or the vehicle. When in doubt, consult
your ALPINE dealer.
• The DVA-5210 uses female RCA-type jacks for connection to
other units (e.g. amplifier) having RCA connectors. You may
need an adaptor to connect other units. If so, please contact
your authorized ALPINE dealer for assistance.
