Notes on Progressive Scan:

If your TV can accept Progressive Scan 1.
feeds, your video connections should be
done as in the picture on the left to obtain
best possible picture quality from the
player.

Once connected see page 10 to set the 2.
connection type for the DVD Player.

Your T V may need adjustment to accept 3.
Progressive Scan feeds.

Do not substitute a component Video 4.
cable with an Audio/Video cable.
Although these types of cables do look
alike, the actual wires inside the cable in
which the signal passes along are very
dierent. Substituting cables will result in
poor picture quality and could damage

CLEARPLAY OPERATION

To use the ClearPlay feature, it must rst be activated. To activate visit www.ClearPlay.com/427.

Your DVD player has the ClearPlay technology that allows you to watch your favorite movies free of
content you may consider oensive. With ClearPlay, you can load a ClearPlay Filter™ for each DVD
movie and then skip or mute objectionable content based on dierent Filter settings that you can
customize to your preference. For example, you can watch your favorite action movie without having
to hear oensive language or having to see dierent types of violence.

The Parental Control feature allows you to congure ClearPlay settings on your player, set movie
Blocking, and protect your settings with a password. See 24 27 for more details about Parental Control
options.

The ClearPlay menu has the following options:

Settings (Choose what content you want ltered, see page 20)•

Filters (View or delete ClearPlay Filters on the player, see page 23)•

Blocking (Blocks certain movies based on rating, see page 21)•

Password (Locks ClearPlay settings with a password, see page 21)•

for that movie. For more information about how to receive new ClearPlay Filters, visit www.ClearPlay.
com or contact us at [phone].

To watch your movies with ClearPlay ltering, just follow these simple steps:

FORMATS YOU CAN PLAY

While advances have been made to ensure that your disc player is compatible with the largest number of discs
possible, it cannot be guaranteed that you will be able to play discs which might not be compliant with audio CD
standards. In the case of writable and re-writable discs, compatibility with this player depends on the CD/DVD writer,
the authoring/writing software and the disc used.

DVD-VIDEO MP3 Files

Digital video discs -12 cm and 8 cm, single or double
sided, single or dual layer. DVD’s are high-density
optical discs on which high quality picture and audio
are recorded by means of digital signals.

DVD±R/W

Digital video discs -12 cm and 8 cm, single or double
sided, single or dual layer. DVD’s are high-density
optical discs on which high quality picture and audio
are recorded by means of digital signals.

Video CD (VCD) / Super Video CD (SVCD)

VCD stands for Video Compact Disc which contains
video footage, still images, audio tracks and interactive
menus.

Audio CD’s / HDCD

Standard Red Book Audio CD’s (8 and 12cm). This DVD
Player is also capable of playing HDCD encoded discs,
these discs have an improved sampling rate for better
listening experience.

CD-R & CD-RW

Most CD-R (one recording only) and CD-RW discs
(re-writable). This player can play most CD-R discs.
CD-R’s written during a multi-session recording can also
be played, provided that the session has ended before
the disc is played (depending on the burning software).
However, depending on the CD writer, computer and
the disc used, you may nd that not all discs will play
successfully. When playing a CD-R disc, it is completely
normal for the unit to take up to 20 seconds to
recognize the disc before starting to play. If the disc is
not recognized after a period of 20 seconds, remove
the disc, and then insert it again.

Irrespective of the actual recording capacity of •
the CD-R, do not use its full capacity.

CD-R’s should be preferably used instead of •
CD-RW’s (re-writable CD’s) as, in certain cases,
CD-RW playback may be faulty.

Use reliable, good-quality CD burning software.•

Close all other applications on the computer to •
ensure reliable CD-R disc recording.

Files on the USB Flash Drive

This player is compatible with USB 2.0 devices. Only FAT
or FAT32 format is supported.

CD-R and CD-RW discs containing audio les in MP3
format. As for CD-R MP3 discs, please follow all the
recommendations for CD-R above, along with the
comments below:

Your MP3 les should be ISO 9660 or JOLIET •
format. ISO 9660 format and Joliet MP3 les are
compatible with Microsoft’s DOS and Windows,
as well as with Apple Mac. These two formats are
the most widely used.

MP3 lenames should not exceed 10 characters, •
and should end with the “.mp3” extension.
General name format: “Title.mp3”. When
composing your title ensure that you use 8
characters or less, have no spaces in the name,
and avoid the use of special characters including
( . / \ = +).

Use a decompression transfer rate of at least •
128 kb/sec (kilobytes/second) when recording
MP3 les. Sound quality with MP3 les
basically depends on the rate of compression
/ decompression you choose. Obtaining audio
CD quality sound requires an analog/digital
sampling rate, that is conversion to MP3 format,
of at least 32 kb/sec and up to 160 kb/sec. Files
with sampling rates below 32 kb/sec will not play
properly.

Do not try recording copyright-protected MP3 •
les. “Secured” les are encrypted and code­protected to prevent illegal copying. You must
not copy such les

Important:
The above recommendations cannot be taken as a
guarantee that the DVD player will play MP3 recordings,
or as an assurance of sound quality. You should note that
certain technologies and methods for MP3 le recording
on CD-R’s prevent optimal playback of these les on your
DVD player (i.e. degraded sound quality and even, in some
cases, inability of the player to read the le).

JPEG Files

CD-R and CD-RW with JPEG les. JPEG is a compressed
image le format.

Note: Display time may vary according to the le size
of JPEG les.

FREQUENT QUESTIONS ON CLEARPLAY FUNCTION

Q. If the movie Blocking is set below R, will the player

allow me to watch an R rated movie?

A. Yes, you can enter your password to override

movie Blocking, or if you load a ClearPlay Filter, it
will allow you to watch a movie that is above your
current movie Blocking setting.

Q. Why did the player allow me to watch my rated

R movie without a password when I had movie
Blocking set?

A. Movie Blocking checks the DVD authoring to

block a movie based on the DVD rating. If the DVD
manufacturer did not author a rating on the DVD,
it may not be blocked by your movie Blocking
settings.

Q. Do I have to create a password to use ClearPlay?

A. No, you can use ClearPlay without creating a

password. However, it is recommended that you
set a password to protect your settings.

Q. Do I have to have a ClearPlay Filter loaded in the

player in order to watch a movie with ClearPlay?

A. Yes, a ClearPlay Filter for the inserted DVD is

required to watch a movie with ClearPlay. A Filter is
not required to watch a DVD movie with ClearPlay
turned OFF, or Normal Play selected.

Q. Will the ClearPlay DVD player lter any content out

of DVD movies if I don’t have a Filter?

A. No, you must have a ClearPlay Filter for the title

that you want to watch with ClearPlay ltering.

Q. If I have ClearPlay ON, can I still watch a movie

without ClearPlay?

A. Yes, if ClearPlay is ON in the parental menu, each

time you insert a DVD, you will have the option
to watch the movie with ClearPlay or without
ClearPlay (“Normal Play”).

Q. What are the Parental Advisories on the Filter?

A. ClearPlay provides you with additional information

to help you decide if a movie is appropriate for
your home. The Parental Advisories listed are
themes that you might want to be aware of before
watching a movie, including specic content that
might not be ltered, even with a ClearPlay Filter
loaded. (See page 24)

Q. When I insert the CD or USB ash drive it says that

the DVD player memory is full.

A. If the DVD player memory is full, you will need

to delete some Filters from the player memory
before you can add new Filters. See page 23 for
information on Viewing/Deleting ClearPlay Filters.

Q. Where can I nd out what ClearPlay Filters are

available?

A. ClearPlay Filters are available for most popular

movies. You can look online at www.clearplay.com
to see what Filters are currently available.

Q. How can I know if ClearPlay is ON when I’m

watching a DVD movie?

A. If ClearPlay is ON in the Parental Control Menu,

At the beginning of the DVD movie, it will say
ClearPlay Filtering ON at the top of the screen. You
can see this message at any time during playback
by pressing the Info button on the remote control.

Q. How many ClearPlay Filters can my DVD player

hold?

A. Each Filter is a dierent size. In the Parental Control

Menu, you can see how much free space there is
available for adding new Filters. Your ClearPlay
DVD player can hold approximately 300 Filters at
one time, but your ClearPlay FilterStik™ can hold
thousands of Filters.

Q. Can I leave my FilterStik™ in the player to access

Filters?

A. Yes, if the FilterStik™ or other ash memory card

is in the player, each time you insert a DVD it will
automatically load the correct Filter from the
FilterStik™.

Q. I have the Filter for the DVD movie, but when I

insert the DVD it says there is no Filter loaded.

A. Make sure you have added the latest version of

the Filter for your DVD movie to your DVD player.
You can press Browse from the main player menu
to see what Filters are loaded on your FilterStik™.
To see which ClearPlay Filters are currently loaded
onto the player, see page 23 for Viewing/Deleting
ClearPlay Filter. If the Filter is not listed in this
menu, get the latest Filter from ClearPlay web site
and add it to the player. Often new versions of
DVD movies are released. We continually update
our web site with the latest DVD releases.

Q. I am watching a movie with ClearPlay, but it is not

ltering content.

A. Try deleting the Filter from the player, then

re-downloading the Filter from ClearPlay. If you
continue to have trouble with ClearPlay Filtering,
contact ClearPlay Customer Support at (888) 425-

3270.
