Remote Control Functions
IMPORTANT NOTE:The remote control for
the JBL Cinema ProPack 600
II
may be programmed to control up to eight devices, including the DCR600IIand DVD600II. It is helpful to
think of the remote as being organized into
“pages,” with one page for each device.
Depending on which device has been selected,
the buttons on that device’s page will perform
different functions, as listed starting on this
page. These functions may vary from the labels
on the remote, and from one device to the
next. Some buttons may perform no function
at all for a given device.
In order to go to the page for a particular
device, such as the DVD600
II
, you will need to
press the Input Selector button for that device
(DVD in this case), located in a grouping just
below the power buttons. The remote will then
function as if it were dedicated to the DVD600
II
.
If you would like to make an adjustment that
affects the DCR600
II
receiver, such as turning
the volume up or down, you must first go to
the page for the DCR600IIby pressing its Input
Selector button. This button is labeled “Main”
on the remote. The exception to this rule is
that the transport functions of the DVD600
II
–
Play, Forward and Reverse Search, Stop,
Pause, and Previous and Next Chapter/Track
Skip – may be accessed from the “Main” page,
without having to jump to the DVD page.

Using the DVD Disc’s Menu
One of the unique features of the DVD system is
that it offers a producer the opportunity to include
a wide range of features on a disc, including
multiple-language tracks; subtitles in a variety
of languages; special information such as movie
trailers and cast information; as well as other
custom-tailored information. In addition, producers may divide a movie or program into chapters
that allow for quick access to specific parts of the
program. These chapters may be accompanied
by thumbnail pictures of a scene from the
specific chapter to help you select the desired
spot on the disc.
When a disc is playing, press the Menu Buttonz to pause the playback and display the disc’s
menu. As there are no hard rules about style
and content of DVD menus, the way they appear
on the screen and the information they contain
will vary from one disc to another. However, the
following general rules apply to most menus:
•
The first menu that appears is the Main
Menu, and you may move through the options
with the
⁄
/¤/‹/
›
Buttons
y`
as the disc’s programming allows. The
option selected will typically be highlighted in
a certain color or inside an outline box.
•
To select a highlighted option, which may
either play a portion of the disc or move to
a submenu, press the Enter Button
or Play/Pause Button.

will return to the point in the program where
the menu was selected by offering a “Play
Movie” option. Press the Enter Button
or Play/Pause Buttonto
resume play. However, not all discs offer this
feature, and selecting the menu while playing
a movie may mean that you will either have
to go back to the beginning of the program or
the start of a chapter. This feature is out of
the control of the DVD600

, as it is set by the
disc’s internal programming.
•Some DVD discs also feature a Chapter
Selection menu. Press the Title Buttonx
to proceed directly to the disc’s Chapter
Selection option.
IMPORTANT NOTES
ON DVD PLAYBACK
Due to the nature of this product category, DVD
players, while being operated at elevated temperatures, may exhibit certain anomalies such
as picture freeze-ups. If this occurs, the
DVD600
II
needs to be “reset” by powering it
down and up again, using its master On/Off
switch. Should this occur with your DVD600
II
,
first check your discs for any damage, scratches
and fingerprints. If discs are OK, then ventilation
around the DVD600
II
needs to be increased to
ensure proper operation.
The DVD600
II
is capable of all the features and
options covered by the DVD standards. However,
it is up to the producer of a DVD disc to decide
which of those features and functions are available on any given disc. For that reason, not all
discs will function identically, and some discs
will not have many of the features of the DVD
system. For example, most current DVD discs do
not take advantage of the multiple-angle feature. When the player displays the “Feature
Prohibited” icon “”, this indicates that the disc
has not been programmed for that feature.
In addition, it is common for the producers of
DVD discs to block the use of certain functions
during only some parts of a disc. For example,
many discs prohibit the use of fast-play buttons
or prohibit access to the Chapter Menu display
during the playback of copyright notices, studio
logos, movie credits or trailers. The appearance
of the “Feature Prohibited” icon “”, or the
inability of certain features to operate when the
disc itself has prohibited them, does not indicate a problem with the DVD600
II
, as these fea-
tures are outside of the unit’s control.
Using the Menu Bar
The DVD600IIis equipped with a powerful on-
screen display system that serves the dual purpose of showing you the current status of the
DVD600
II
while enabling quick and easy
changes to settings and functions. Depending
on whether a DVD or CD is in use, the menu will
vary to display information that is specific to the
type of disc in play.
Menus and Controls
When a disc is playing, press the Status
Button e to view the status of the current
disc and to change the setting for key playback
functions (Figure 18).

Buttons `to move across the display to
select the desired option. When the option to be
changed is highlighted in white with yellow
brackets on both sides, press the Enter Button
to change the setting for that option.
Selecting Titles and Chapters
Some discs contain more than one title.
Remember that a disc may contain one title or
two separate program titles, or the disc may use
the Title function to separate the special feature
sections or audio tracks on the disc. The use of
titles is optional with the producer of each DVD
disc, as is the way in which he/she may choose
to implement the feature. You may directly
access any chapter while the disc is playing or
in Pause mode simply by entering its number
using the remote.
To change the title on those discs using the
Menu Status Bar, follow these steps:
1. During disc playback, press the Status
Button e.
2. If needed, press the
‹
/
› Buttons `
until the disc icon for the current title, with the
letter “T” underneath it, is highlighted in white
between yellow brackets.
3. Press the Enter Button.
4. Note that the number to the right of the “T”
will be replaced with two dashes (– –).
5. Use the Numeric Keys–
to enter the number of the title to be accessed.
6. The desired title will automatically be started.
Titles may also be selected during the playback
of a DVD by pressing the Title Buttonx.
However, the action of the disc when pressing
this button will vary from disc to disc. On occasion, pressing this button will take you to the

Changing Languages (Audio)
DVD discs may contain a variety of audio tracks,
including foreign languages, special commentaries, descriptive video for the sight-impaired,
and various digital formats. Some DVD-Audio
discs that contain linear PCM or Dolby Digital
5.1 audio tracks may allow you to access these
tracks using the Audio feature described in this

the subtitle description as shown earlier.
Also note that some DVD discs do not contain
subtitles. When the Subtitle On/Off Button
is pressed on a disc with no subtitles, the
Prohibit icon “” will appear on screen.
Changing Camera Angles
A special feature of the DVD format is its capability of showing more than one view, or camera
angle, of the same scene. This feature enables
you to become the director, selecting the view
of a scene that you wish. Note, however, that
this feature does not appear on many discs and,
when it does appear, it will typically be for only
certain scenes and not for the entire disc’s program. If you attempt to use the multiple-angle
feature on a disc that is not programmed for it,
you may see the “Prohibited Feature” icon “”
on the screen. This is not a fault of the player; it
simply indicates that the feature is not available
on the disc being played.
To see whether a disc contains multiple angles,
check the disc’s cover or jacket. When a disc
does contain scenes with multiple angles, the producers will usually include some sort of special
on-screen icon to alert you to the availability of
different angles of view. When you see such an
icon, the angle may be changed by the following
steps:
1. Press the Status Button e.

Playing MP3 and Video CD Discs
The DVD600IIis rare among DVD players in that
it is able to play discs containing MP3 audio
files. This means that you may enjoy the latest
music, using discs created in your computer,
through the high quality audio components in
your home the
ater system. As the way that MP3
files are recorded
on discs differs from the way
conventional CD audio discs are structured, MP3
playback is somewhat different from standard CDs.

MP3 Disc Playback
When the DVD600
II
reads a disc and recognizes
it as an MP3 disc, no Disc Type Indicator
will light; however, a listing of all the directories
and tracks on the disc will appear on the video
screen. (Figure 23). Note that the right side of
the screen will initially be blank, as that is used
for programming playlists for MP3 playback. The
black box in the upper left corner of the screen
will show the Play symbol while a track is playing, or the Play/Pause symbol when a track has
been paused, or no symbol when the unit is in
Stop mode. The box in the top center of the display will contain the file name of the currently
selected track.
The second row of boxes will display, from left
to right, an indication of whether the current
mode is Standard Play, Random Play or Repeat
Play; the track number currently playing, and the
elapsed time of the current track.
Figure 23
To play a track, press the
⁄/¤
Navigation
Buttons yuntil the desired track name
is highlighted. If the list of tracks is longer than
will fit on the screen, a
⁄
or ¤indicator will
appear at the top or bottom of the track list to
remind you that you may scroll through the list
to see additional titles.
To begin playback, press the Play/PauseButton or the Enter Button.
During MP3 playback most of the standard
CD/DVD playback controls operate in their
normal fashion:
•
You may skip forward to the next track on the
disc by pressing the Next Button .
•
You may skip back to the previous track on the
disc by pressing the Previous Button .
•
Press the Pause Button to momentarily
stop playback. Press it again to resume play.
•Press the Enter Buttonto begin play, or

NOTES ON MP3 PLAYBACK
•
The Fast Forward and Reverse Search modes
are not available during MP3 playback.
•
During MP3 playback the Program TimeIndicators will show the elapsed time of
the track being played. Other time display
options are not available with MP3 playback.
•
The DVD600
II
is only compatible with standard MP3-encoded discs. Other compressed
audio formats used for Internet audio downloads will not play on the DVD600
II
.
•
Due to the differences in various versions of
the MP3 format, and the many differences
between the CD-R machines used to record
MP3 discs on a computer, it is possible that
some MP3 discs may not play on the
DVD600
II
even though they will work on a
computer. This is normal and does not
indicate a fault with the unit.
•
When a multisession disc with both standard
CD audio and MP3 content is in use, the
DVD600
II
will play only the CD audio sections
of the disc.
•
When an MP3 disc with multiple directories
is playing, the DVD600
II
will search out all
MP3 files on the disc and list them in the onscreen display in the order in which the directories are structured on the disc. Note that if
the same title is used for tracks in different
directories, this may result in the same
title appearing more than once in the track
listings.
Programmed Playback of MP3 Discs
The DVD600
II
is capable of creating playlists up
to 130 tracks long with the MP3 files on a properly recorded disc. To create a playback list for
MP3 titles, follow these steps:
Step 1: Load a compatible MP3 disc, but do not
put it into

VCD Playback
VCD is a format that predates DVD which is
based on a different compression format than
DVD and a recording method that is similar to
CDs. Although the DVD has, for the most part,
replaced VCD as a format, the DVD600
II
offers
VCD playback so that you may play your existing
library of VCD discs.
(continued)
DVD600II
Page 20
20
Operating the DVD600IIDVD Changer
There are two versions of the VCD format: an
early version which is simply called “VCD” and
a later version with Playback Control which is
called “Version 2.0” or “PBC”. The DVD600
II
is
compatible with both forms of VCD, although
playback will vary according to which version
is used and the specific way in which the disc
was created.
However, the DVD600
II
is not capable of playing
SVCD (Super Video CD) discs. Also, do not confuse the Video CD format with the photo CDs
that you may receive when developing a roll of
film. Photo CDs may not be viewed using the
DVD600
II
.
Even though VCD discs provide video, since the
format is based on CD technology, the playback
functions for a VCD disc operate very closely to
those for CD. To play a VCD disc, place it in the
DVD600
II
as you would any other CD or DVD
disc. After the unit takes a few seconds to read
the disc’s contents the VCD segment of the
Disc Type Indicators will light and the
disc will begin playing. If the disc has been created under VCD Version 2.0, or if it otherwise
allows Playback Control functionality, the letters
PBC will appear in the Title/Track Indicators
.
However, keep in mind that the exact
level of functionality for any VCD will vary widely and it is ultimately determined by the way the
disc was created, not by the DVD600
II
.
When playing VCD discs, most standard
DVD/CD playback controls function as normal,
including Play, Stop, Pause, Forward or Reverse
Slow Play, and Fast Forward or Reverse Search
(x2, 4x and 8x speeds). The indications for fast
play in either direction work as described for CD
playback.
Using the On-Screen Status Bar
for VCD Playback
When playing many VCD discs, it is possible to
access the disc’s features using the on screen
menu bar in the same manner as shown for CD
playback. Note, however, that the while the
IntroScan icons will appear in the menu bar, the
IntroScan feature is not available for VCD discs.
Use of other functions will vary according to the
disc type. With some VCD discs, you may select
a track using the Track function on the menu
bar. If the menu bar is not visible on the screen
press the Status Button e to recall it to the
screen. Note that when PBC appears under
the disc icon in the far left position of the menu
bar it is not possible to change track numbers
directly.
Depending on the disc’s functionality, some VCD
discs allow the time display to be changed in
the same manner as described for CD discs.
Playback Control
VCD discs made under the Revision 2.0 specification will usually offer PBC, or playback control.
With PBC many discs include chapter selection
menus that are similar to those found on DVDs.
However, on VCD discs the menus are recalled
and controlled differently than on DVD discs.
•
To view the menu options on a PBC disc,
press the Next or Previous
buttons on the remote or the Skip Forward/Reverse Buttons on the front panel.
•
Once the menu options appear on the screen,
make your selection by pressing the NumericButton -that corresponds
to your desired choice. The desired selection
will begin playingautomatically.
Note that the Menu Button used during DVD
playback is not used for VCD playback.

Subject: Will Not Play Enhanced CD’s or Some DVD Titles
Definition, Enhanced CD’s: A special audio Compact Disc, when placed in a CD or DVD player, offers a
multimedia experience. Enhanced CDs are compatible with audio CD players, DVD players, and properly
configured computer CD-ROM drives. They may include video clips, still pictures, interviews, discographies,
lyrics and other information, in addition to the recorded music.
In the event you receive a DVD600II DVD player with the complaint: “The unit will not play an En hanced
CD, or a certain DVD title” – the unit may exhibit one or more of the following symptoms: The counter
freezes in the displa y, all you hear is a repeating ski pping sound or intermittent noise coming from the
receiver, display goes to the last track, or navigation features do not work, follow the instruct ions
below:
1) For Enhanced CD: Verify that the CD causing the problem is an enhanced CD; it should be labeled as
“Enhanced CD”. If it’s not an enhanced CD, problems will not be corrected by this software upgrade
(Version 1.11 to 1.13). V erify that the unit will play r egular music CD’s successfully.
2) Verify the serial number range of the DVD600II (see below). If the unit falls into the affected serial number
range, it is a candidate for the software upgrade. Additionally, the software version can be checked by
following the simple procedure on page 2.

Subject: Unit Says In Standby Mode
In the event you receive a DVD600II DVD player with the complaint: “The unit stays in standby mode
(amber indicator), and will not switch ON, either with the remote control or the front panel button”,
check the following components and follow the instructions below:
Synopsis:
In the Front panel PCB:
IC901 microprocessor - check solder connections to all 80 pins – resolder if necessary
C903, C904 0.1uF 50V SMD capacitors – check and replace.
In the Power supply PCB:
R6 120Ω 1/8 watt resistor – check and replace if necessary.
1) Remove (8) screws holding the top cover on; remove the cover.
2) In the Power supply PCB, check and replace R6, 120Ω 1/8 watt resistor, with JBL part# 299-120. You
may be able to cut the defective resistor off the PCB and re-solder the new part on without removing the
power supply PCB.
3) Remove the five plated screws holding the front panel to the chassis (one is on the bottom)
4) Unplug the single 5-pin Molex plug to CN906 (near the power switch) to allow the front panel to be
disengaged from the chassis; cut and remove any cables ties, but note their location.
5) Remove the front panel from the unit; there are four tabs/catches that must be freed as the panel is
removed; two are on the sides and two are on the bottom.
6) Once the rear of the front panel PCB is exposed, locate IC901 microprocessor - check solder
connections to all 80 pins and resolder if required.
7) Locate C903, C904; 0.1uF 50V SMD capacitors; check and replace with JBL part# 2026729091.

Troubleshooting tips and solutions to common service problems
For models: DVD600II (from the Cinema ProPack 600II System) TIP# JBLTT2003-03
Subject: Opening Tray Without Power
In the event you receive a DVD600II without power, and you have a need to open the tray manually:
On the bottom panel there is a 1 3/8” opening* covered by a black square plastic dust cover. Carefully,
with a sharp tool, peel it away from the opening and remove it. By inserting your finger in the opening, you
can feel the edge of a gear. With your fingernail, it is an easy matter to rotate the gear in the proper
direction; the tray will start to extract from the unit. If the top cover has been removed, once the tray is in
motion, you can push the tray out further from the back of the tray.
Replace the dust cover after you are finished servicing the unit.
* (NOTE: there are two – the correct one is the one with a square shape, closer to the front of the unit –
