Connecting Audio
The Discmaster 8.0 offers several alternatives for audio connection.
1. For the highest quality surround-sound, connect digitally to an external
surround-sound decoder.
2. For convenience and simplicity of operation, connect the analogue
outputs of the Discmaster 8.0 directly to power amplifiers and a
subwoofer, or to an active sub-sat system.
3. If you have an analogue two-channel stereo system, connect the stereo
outputs (or those from the upgrade DAC, when fitted) of the Discmaster

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
If your Discmaster 8.0 is not operating properly, disconnect the power and
check all connections using the notes in this handbook. If problems persist,
the checklist below may help.
If you are in any doubt, consult your dealer.
No picture or sound (all discs)
Switch off the power to the system and check that connections have been
correctly made from the Discmaster 8.0 to the TV, amplifier or surround
decoder.
Check that all equipment is switched on and that the correct input is selected
at the TV, amplifier or surround decoder.
Picture breaking up, incorrect colours or corrupted
The display video mode selected may not be supported by your monitor. Press
the N/P button to switch to basic video mode (NTSC). Press N/P again to
switch to basic video mode (PAL).
The S-Video output may be switched on while watching another video output.
If this is the case, switch off the S-Video output.
Disc Spinning with no sound
Check in the SETUP menu that the correct audio mode is selected for your
system and connections.
Region warning displayed when a disc is loaded
Check that the region symbol on the disc matches the region symbol on the
rear panel of the player (number with a globe symbol). To avoid this problem
ensure that discs are only purchased in the same global region as the player.
DVD picture stops and jumps to another scene
The disc may be dirty or badly scratched. Try playing another disc. If the other
disc plays ok, try cleaning the 1st disc.
NOTE:- Some discs feature dual layers. Playback will pause momentarily
