Cautions and guidance on installation

Safety Guidelines

Operate only on a secure and level surface or securely • fastened into a rack, noting the precautions below.

This equipment must be earthed (grounded).•

This equipment must be powered from a polarised AC • supply.

Only suitably trained personnel should service this • equipment.

Please read and take note of all warning and informative • labels.

Before starting any servicing operation, this equipment • must be isolated from the AC supply (mains) by removing the incoming IEC mains connector.

Fuses should only be replaced with ones of the same type • and rating as that indicated.

Operate only in a clean, dry and pollutant-free environment.•

Do not operate in an explosive atmosphere.•

Do not allow any liquid or solid objects to enter the • equipment. Should this accidentally occur then immediately switch off the unit and contact your service agent.

Installation

Although the UDP-89 does not generate a significant degree of heat, it should never be installed immediately above or below another piece of equipment that does, such as a power amplifier. It is good practice in any case to fit vent blanks of at least 1U above and below such equipment in a rack (unless they short-circuit that equipments’ own fan-cooling, in which case plain blanks should be fitted).

Care with ventilation should similarly be taken if the unit is freestanding; never stack it on top of or underneath another piece of equipment which generates a significant amount of heat.

Take care when routing cables around the unit; never drape cables across the front panel of the UDP-89 as they may obstruct the disc tray eject mechanism.

Do not install or use the UDP-89 in a position where it is in direct sunlight or high-intensity artificial light. Never attempt to move the unit while it is in operation.

Care & cleaning

Always switch off and disconnect the unit from the mains before cleaning. The outside surfaces of the unit may be cleaned with a soft dry cloth. For stubborn marks (such as from liquid spillage), a soft damp cloth may be used in conjunction with a mild detergent solution (dilute a household detergent cleaner 5:1 with water). Wipe thoroughly dry with a dry cloth after. NEVER use solvent cleaners of any kind.

Always switch the unit off and disconnect it from the AC supply before moving it. NEVER move the unit while it is in use, as this may permanently damage the disc.

CDs and DVDs should ALWAYS be handled with care. Hold discs only by the edge or the centre hole. Never put discs “face down” on any surface as they can scratch easily. Smudges and fingerprints may be removed from a disc’s playing surface by wiping it gently with a soft, lint-free cloth “across” the disc radius. Never rub circumferentially. Stubborn marks can be removed by applying a small amount of isopropyl alcohol (distilled water is often as effective), again with a soft, lint-free cloth. Alternatively, use a commercially available CD cleaning kit. NEVER use solvent cleaners of any kind.

Installing the Remote Control batteries

To insert the batteries in the infra-red remote control handset:

Slide off the battery compartment lid on the rear of the • handset

Insert two AAA batteries, taking care to orientate them • the correct way (refer to markings within the battery compartment)

Slide battery compartment lid back on•

Important! Please observe the following guidelines when replacing batteries:

Always change both batteries at the same time.•

Always use two batteries of the same brand and type.•

Dispose of the old batteries in a responsible manner – • always observe local environmental guidelines.

Introduction

UDP-89 User Manual Version 2.0 www.hhb.co.uk

Using the RC-89 Remote Control handset

Make sure there are no obstacles between the handset • and the unit.

The handset should work reliably within 7m of the unit, and • within 30° of the direct line between the handset and the unit.

Strong sunlight or fluorescent lighting may make remote • control operation less reliable.

Remote control handsets for different equipment • sometimes interact. If the UDP-89 is installed adjacent to other infra-red-controlled equipment, you should satisfy yourself that the UDP-89’s handset is not affecting the other equipment, or vice-versa. One or more items may need to be moved if interaction is observed.

A falling-off of the operating range of the handset will • generally indicate that it is time to change the batteries.

Compatible disc types

The UDP-89 supports the following types of media: CD, CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-V, DVD-A, DVD+R, DVD+RW, DVD-R, DVD-RW, SACD.

Compatible audio and video formats

Numerous encoding schemes for both audio and video data have been implemented since the initial introduction of the CD and DVD media formats. Most - but not all - schemes are defined for one particular type of media. The number of combination of media types and encoding schemes is now quite large, and it is a fundamental purpose of the UDP-89 to replay audio and/or video from as many of the disc types currently in use as possible.

Connector Details

Analogue Audio Outputs:

Main L & R outputs. These are electronically-balanced,

and have a nominal level of +4 dBu. The output circuits can drive a maximum output level of >+22 dBu. They are calibrated internally to produce +22 dBu from a PCM signal of 0 dBFS. Pinouts of these and all rear panel connectors can be found in the manual Appendix.

The format of the audio available at these connectors will

depend on the type of disc being played. Discs with only stereo audio data will reproduce normal L & R stereo. Discs with multichannel audio data will generally reproduce an internally-generated downmix of the multichannel audio, though this will vary with disc type and encoding system. See later manual sections on individual disc types and encoding systems for more information.

Unbalanced L & R analogue outputs. These carry the same audio signal as the main outputs above, but in unbalanced form on phono connectors (RCA jacks) at a nominal level of -10 dBv. Output level is calibrated internally to produce +8 dBv from a PCM signal of 0 dBFS.

Unbalanced multichannel outputs. These are a set of six phono connectors (RCA jacks) providing the components of a 5.1.surround sound recording when a suitably-encoded disc is played. The electrical characteristics of these outputs are the same as those of the unbalanced L & R connectors described in above.

Composite video out (phono/RCA)

Composite video out (BNC)

Digital Video Output

HDMI out (19-pin Type A HDMI connector). Note this

connector also carries digital audio.

Other Connectors

RS232 remote control port (D9M)

Parallel remote control, function-programmable (D9F)

AC mains input (IEC)

Unbalanced multichannel analogue outputs.

The format of the audio available at these connectors

will depend on the type of disc being played. Discs with multichannel audio data will reproduce the six (5.1) channels individually. Discs with only stereo audio data will duplicate the normal L & R stereo at the LF and RF connectors, the other outputs being muted.

Page 12

Connectivity

UDP-89 User Manual Version 2.0 www.hhb.co.uk

Balanced multichannel outputs. This is a 25-pin female Dsub connector carrying electronicallybalanced versions of both the main L & R outputs and the multichannel outputs. The signals at this connector will always be the same as those at the unbalanced connectors

and . The electrical characteristics are the same as

those of the balanced L & R connectors described in

Digital Audio Outputs:

AES/EBU out. This provides a two-channel

AES/EBU digital output conforming to AES3-1992 (r1997) amendment 4-1999.

The format of the audio available at this connector will

depend on the type of disc being played. In the case of discs with only stereo audio data, normal L & R stereo will be output. When multichannel audio discs are played, an internally-generated downmix of the multichannel audio will be carried. Onward transmission of the AES/EBU output will be restricted with certain encoding systems. See page 33 on individual disc types and encoding systems for more information.

S/PDIF out (coaxial). A two-channel “consumer” digital output conforming to IEC60958-4 is available at this connector. The signal will generally be the same programme as at the AES/EBU connector , but may vary with some types of discs and encoding schemes. When decoding Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG-1 Layer 2 bitstreams, the output at the S/PDIF connector may be selected to be either the 2-channel PCM signal, or the raw bitstream for external decoding.

Digital video output:

HDMI out. Digital video plus digital audio is available

at the 19-pin Type-A High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) connector. Pre-made cables are normally used for this interface, but the pinout may be found in Appendix 1

(see page 44).

Other:

RS232 serial remote control connector. The

UDP-89 can be fully controlled remotely via RS232 serial commands, e.g. from an external control system (Crestron, AMX, etc.) Port parameters and an abridged command set protocol can be found on page 42. The connector is a D9M. Please refer to the website to download the full protocol and a Windows test application.

Parallel remote control connector. The UDP-89’s basic transport commands can also be implemented by voltfree contact closure at the pins of this connector (a D9F). Five of the pins are designated as inputs, three as outputs (tallies). The functions controlled by each of the inputs are user-definable via the menu system. The source of the tally outputs is similarly definable. Full information is available on page 41.

AC mains input. The UDP-89 is powered via a standard European IEC connector. The UDP-89’s design includes a universal power supply and will accept all AC mains voltages from 100 to 240 V, 50/60 Hz.

S/PDIF out (optical). Standard TOSlink connector carrying the same signal as above, in optical form. Use a standard optical TOSlink cable of not more than 3 m length.

Analogue video outputs:

Component video out. Component video is available

at these three connectors in either RGB or YPbPr (YUV) format. The default format is YPbPr. Output impedance is

75ohms.Outputformatselectionisviathemenusystem

(see page 39). In RGB mode, the composite video output at connector or may be used as the video sync source.

RGB Switching connector. The RGB output is compatible with the SCART RGB input of European TV sets. The rear-panel RGB Switching connector should be wired to pin 16 of the SCART. See page 36 for more details.

S-video out. Standard 4-pin mini-DIN connector carrying separated baseband luminance (Y) and chrominance (C)

videosignals.Outputimpedanceis75ohms.

Composite Video (CV) out. A phono connector (RCA jack) carrying baseband composite video. Output impedance

is75ohms;willdrive1Vp-pwhencorrectlyterminated.

The composite video signal can be PAL or NTSC interlaced standard, selected via the menu system (page 39). The signal at this connector is also used as the S (sync) signal for RGB component video.

Composite video (CVBS) out. An identical signal to that at above is also available on a BNC connector, independently buffered.

Description of Front Panel Features

NOTE: The exact functionality of some of the front panel controls may vary slightly according to the type of disc being played, and the following is general description only. Greater detail can be found in the sections of the manual describing the various disc types.

AC power switch. The large HHB logo at the left-hand of the front-panel is the push-button on/off switch, and is illuminated when the unit is on.

On power-up, the display shows Welcome HHB UDP-89 and then No Disc if there is no disc in the drive, or Loading if there is.

Alphanumeric display. The 2 row x 11-character vacuum-fluorescent display is described in detail on page 14.

Disc drawer. The disc drive accepts one disc at a time. The drawer is motorised and can be manually opened and closed with the EJECT button . When the drawer is open, the display shows Open.

EJECT button. This button operates the disc drawer. Its action can be disabled by setting Disable Eject via the menu system (see page 37). After an EJECT command to close the drawer, the display shows Close.

Remote control sensor. The infra-red sensor receives commands from the remote control handset. Keep the sensor unobstructed to ensure correct functioning. The range of reliable operation of the handset is shown in the diagram below.

PLAY/PAUSE button. Pressing this button starts or resumes playback of the inserted disc if the disc is stopped or paused, or pauses playback if pressed when the disc is already playing. Pressing PLAY/PAUSE from Stop Mode restarts the disc from the beginning, whereas pressing it from Resume Mode continues playback from the last location. The front panel display will either indicate Play Mode with the word Play and the H symbol, or Pause Mode with the word Pause and the B symbol.

STOP button. Pressing this button stops the disc from all transport modes. The display either will show the word Resume, following a single press of STOP, or Stop after a second press.

CUE button. This accesses the player’s bookmark or cue- point locating feature. Pressing CUE in Play or Pause modes allows a cue-marker point to be stored with the MARK/ ENTER button. Once a marker point has been stored, a second press on the MARK/ENTER button will locate to the stored location and exit the bookmarking feature. In addition, the stored cue-marker may be cleared using the CLR button on the remote control, or the LEFT or RIGHT cursor buttons on the front panel. Pressing CUE a second time will exit the function. See page 27 for full details.

FFWD button. Pressing this button from Play or Pause Modes puts the unit into a Search function, causing the disc to be scanned at 2x normal speed in a forward direction. Further presses of FFWD double the previous search speed, up to a maximum of 16x normal speed. Audio is muted in Search.

FWD Search is indicated by FFWD and the speed multiple in

the front panel display.

FREW button. This button has the same function as the FFWD button above, except that the search direction is reversed. REW Search is indicated by FREW in the front panel display.

PREVIOUS button. The function of PREVIOUS varies slightly with disc type. With CDs or SACDs, if pressed in Play or Pause mode during the first 5 seconds of a track, PREVIOUS causes the disk to jump to the start of the previous track. If pressed after the first 5 seconds of a track, it will jump to the start of the current track. In either case, playback commences from the new location. With DVDs, PREVIOUS will always jump back to the start of the current chapter.

TOP MENU button. With DVDs, cancels current transport mode and displays disc’s main Disc Menu. (NB this will generally be the Title Menu on discs with only a single Title)

MENU button. With DVDs, cancels current transport mode and displays the Title Menu for the currently-selected Title. The MENU button also enables PBC navigation with VCD (Video CD) and Super VCD discs.

SETUP button. The SETUP button has two functions, depending whether a disc is loaded when it is pressed.

With a disc loaded, pressing SETUP enters the UDP-89’s

internal menu system, which provides a range of userselectable options and additional operating modes. These are described in detail later in the manual (see page 38). The drive enters Resume Mode if a disc is playing. A second press of SETUP from anywhere in the menu structure exits the menu system; disc playback will resume from the previous location.

A long press on SETUP (more than ½ second) without a

disc being loaded allows re-assignment of the UDP-89’s Parallel remote control connector. See page 42 for full details.

AUTO-PAUSE (A-PAUSE) button. This button selects Auto-Pause Mode. The A.PAUSE flag illuminates in the display.

Auto-Pause Mode modifies the operation of the CUE, NEXT

and PREVIOUS functions; these are described in greater detail later in the manual (see page 27)

HEADPHONE SOCKET. A ¼” 3-pole jack socket for the connection of headphones for monitoring purposes. The signal available at this connector is the main L+R

stereooutput.Headphoneswithanimpedanceof32ohms

upwards may be used.

HEADPHONE LEVEL control. This is a conventional analogue volume control for the headphone output.

NEXT button. This button works in a similar way to PREVIOUS above, except that the track/chapter jumped to is the one following that currently playing. Pressing NEXT while playing the last track has no effect.

CURSOR controls. The normal UP, DOWN, LEFT and RIGHT cursor controls are provided for navigating the various on-screen menus generated by the player or authored onto video discs. LEFT and RIGHT cursor controls also provide front panel cue-point CLEAR functionality.

MARK/ENTER button. This button has several functions. When navigating on-screen menus using the cursor buttons above, the button acts as an ENTER key, to confirm a selected menu option or track selection.

The button is also used to mark a point in programme

material for subsequent location in conjunction with the CUE button

MARK/ENTER also initiates disk playback from STOP mode.

Audio Level

With all types of discs, the volume of the audio can be adjusted from the UDP-89 itself, using the VOLUME up-and-down buttons on the RC-89 remote control unit. Note that this adjustment applies to all analogue audio outputs in use, both stereo and multichannel.

The UDP-89 also permits level adjustment of the individual audio channels of the analogue multitrack output, via the CH SELECT and CH LEVEL up-and-down buttons on the RC-89. See “Audio level and delay adjustment” on page 34 for full details.

Playing Audio Discs

The UDP-89 plays audio-only discs of most types, including standard commercial Red Book audio CDs, audio CD-Rs and audio CD-RWs, SACDs (Super Audio Compact Discs), DVD-A discs (DVD-Audio) and data discs – either CD-R/RW or

DVD-R/RW–containingaudiofilesofvarioustypes.Thissection

initially describes the UDP-89’s operation with a standard audio CD (CD-DA), with any differences being summarised separately. Discs containing video programme material (including CD-Rs with .avi or JPEG files) are covered in the next section, “Playing Video Discs”.

The next track to be played (1 in the case of a newly-inserted disc) and the total number of tracks is confirmed, e.g.: 1/6. The Disc Title will be shown as CDA (Compact Disc Audio) and the tracks will be listed as Tracknn.

Pressing PLAY/PAUSE playback from Track 1. Playback may be paused and re-started at any time by further presses of PLAY/PAUSE. Pressing STOP

once cancels playback and the unit enters Resume Mode; playback will continue from the last location when playback is restarted. A second press of STOP (i.e., from Resume Mode) puts the unit in Stop Mode; playback then restarts from Track 1 when PLAY/PAUSE is next pressed. For CDs and other audio discs, Resume and Pause Modes are effectively the same. Play and Pause Modes are confirmed in the front panel display.

From Play Mode, the NEXT move the play location to the start of the next or previous track respectively, the exception being that if PREVIOUS is pressed when the track time of the track currently playing exceeds 5 seconds, the play location returns to the start of the current track. A single press of the FFWD and FREW buttons searches the disc – forwards or backwards respectively - at twice the normal speed, with audio output muted. Further presses redouble the search speed to a maximum of 16x normal speed; a further press then reverts to normal play speed.

Track Selection

In addition to the use of the NEXT and PREVIOUS buttons described above, playback from the start of a specific track may also be selected with the cursor keys and/or the direct access keys on the remote control, or the front panel cursor keys, in conjunction with the on-screen display.

Transport Controls

On loading a standard CD, a display similar to that below can be seen after the disc has been loaded and read:

The front panel display indicates the number of tracks on the CD (Tnn) and the total disc playing time (in the form h:mm:ss). If a video monitor is connected, the CD tracklist screen is also available as an OSD (On-Screen Display):

Using the front panel buttons:

The UP/DOWN cursor keys may be used to select the track to be played. The “selected” track is indicated in the OSD track list by a yellow border*, and it will start playing the selected track from Stop or Play Modes when MARK/ENTER is pressed.

Using the remote control:

The UP, DOWN and MARK/ENTER buttons on the remote control may be used in the manner described above, with the difference that the PLAY button can be used to initiate playback of the selected track from Play Mode.

The remote control’s Direct Access Keys will also select a track by number, and can be used from Play, Resume and Stop Modes. Tracks 1 to 9 can be selected by a single button press, followed by MARK/ENTER. Tracks 10 and above can be selected by pressing the two digits of the track number, i.e. to select Track 15, press ‘1’ followed by ‘5’. Confirmation of track selection is confirmed by the on-screen display first by showing the “current track” field at the top of the display*, then after a few seconds by the yellow border moving to the chosen track. An incorrect button press may be corrected with the CLR button while the track selection is displayed only on the current track field.

*Note that the front panel display does not alter when the UP/DOWN cursor keys are used.

Other Audio Disc Types

CD-R and CD-RW

The UDP-89 will play CD-Rs and CD-RWs recorded as audio discs to the Red Book standard. This includes discs recorded in consumer and professional CD recorders (the HHB CDR-882 and CDR-830 are examples of the latter) as well as discs recorded in computer disc drives using audio disc-burning software such as Nero or Roxio.

The UDP-89 will NOT play unfinalised discs.

The front panel and on-screen displays are as for commercial audio CDs.

SACDs (Super Audio Compact Discs)

The UDP-89 supports Super Audio CDs recorded to the Scarlet Book standard SACD2.0. SACDs may be single-layer, dual-layer or hybrid, as follows:

Single layer disc carrying a surround mix or stereo mix, or • both, in high-definition DSD (Direct Stream Digital) format

Dual layer disc carrying a surround mix or stereo mix, or • both, in high-definition DSD (Direct Stream Digital) format

Hybrid disc, with one high-definition layer carrying a • surround mix or stereo mix, or both, in high-definition DSD (Direct Stream Digital) format, and a second red-book CD layer carrying a stereo PCM mix

The CD layer or either area of the HD layer may be selected for replay via the OSD. On loading an SACD, the UDP-89 initially selects the multi-channel HD layer. The layers/areas are displayed in a separate pane on the OSD, and a different layer/ area may be selected by navigating the yellow “highlight” border from the tracklist with the Cursor Right key, and then performing the selection with the Cursor Up/Down keys ENTER key .

and MARK/

Playback of the selected track may be started by pressing either PLAY or MARK/ENTER.

Time Displays

When first loaded, a CD’s total playing time is indicated on the front panel LCD in the format h:mm:ss, together with total the number of tracks on the disc. Once playing, the elapsed time of the track playing is displayed:

DVD-As (DVD-Audio discs)

The UDP-89 supports DVD-Audio discs recorded in accordance to the recommendations of DVD Forum WG-4. DVD-A discs store multi-channel audio up to 96 kHz, 24-bit, or stereo up to 192 kHz, 24-bit using Meridian Lossless Packing (MLP) compression.

DVD-A discs will normally offer a choice of disc areas, each carrying the audio programme material encoded in a different way. DVD-A discs are authored in a similar way to DVD-V discs, with a Title Menu page requiring user input. (Disc navigation for this type of disc is described in the next manual sub-section “Playing discs with video content” on page 23.)

Although referred to as “audio” discs, DVD-A discs will frequently include video material as well.

See “Stereo and multi-channel audio” on page 32 for further information regarding stereo and multichannel audio options.

The disc type is confirmed by the front panel display and the onscreen display lists the tracks by name:

NotethatDTS-orDolbyDigital-encodedprogrammeonthedisc

will be correctly decoded, and its presence confirmed by DTS or Dolby D indications in the front panel display as shown above. See “Stereo and multi-channel audio” on page 32 for more information regarding multi-channel audio formats. As with other types of DVD, the OSDs are entirely dependent on the authoring process.

Each item, i.e., main high-resolution audio, alternate audio formats, videos or extras, on a DVD-A disc is called a Group, and each Group is divided into Tracks. Groups are displayed on the top line of the front panel display as Gxx, and the track number displayed as Txx on the bottom line as shown

The NEXT alternative tracks in the normal way; other tracks may also be selected using the OSD tracklist and the Cursor and MARK/ ENTER keys.

and PREVIOUS buttons may be used to select

Note also that the OSD includes a right-to-left scrolling banner text below the track list, confirming the disc Title and Artist, and the Name of the currently-selected track. Banner text is not displayed when the player is in STOP mode.

The operation of the other main transport controls is as for standard CD-DA discs.

The UDP-89 will replay MP3 files (MPEG1/2 Layer 3) on any of

thesupportedmedia(CD-R/RW,DVDR/RW).

Playing MP3 files

After loading, a disc containing MP3 files will produce the front panel and on-screen displays shown below:

Playing discs with video content

The UDP-89 plays most types of discs with video content, including standard commercial DVD-Video discs (commonly referred to simply as “DVDs”), Video CDs, Super VCDs and

CD-R/RWsorDVD-R/RWscontainingvideofilesofvarious

types, including JPEG picture files. This section initially describes the UDP-89’s operation with a standard DVD-V, with any differences being summarised separately.

Transport Controls

On loading a standard DVD-V, the following displays are typical of those presented after the disc has been loaded and read:

Depending on how a DVD-Video disc is authored, the Main Title Menu will be displayed first, or some introductory material will be played, or the main feature will be played without displaying any menu screen.

Navigation of the disc and any menu screens is achieved using the up/down and left/right cursor keys and the MARK/ENTER button on the remote control or front panel.

The track names are the filenames of the MP3 files; note that they are truncated to 15 characters. The OSD also includes scrolling banner text (below the track list) containing further information about the track, including fields for track Name, Album Title, Artist, etc. Whether any or all of these fields contain textual data depends on how the MP3 disc was created and the PC disc-burning software employed. The data inserted will be obtained, if available, from the information appended to the MP3 file at source. Note that banner text is not displayed when the player is in Stop Mode.

The NEXT and PREVIOUS buttons may be used to select alternative tracks in the normal way; other tracks may also be selected using the OSD tracklist and the Cursor and MARK/ ENTER keys. The FFWD and FREW buttons allow the play location to be moved at high speed in the normal way, but like audio CDs, the audio is muted during the process.

Note that, unlike CD and SACD, pressing Play from STOP will not always restart playback from the first track (i.e., MP3 file) on the disc or in the folder. Instead, the most recently played track will be replayed from the beginning.

If a disc contains folders as well as files, it is recommended to connect a video monitor to aid disc navigation.

To start the disc playing, either press PLAY/PAUSE , or MARK/ENTER screen menu option is highlighted (which will generally be the default case).

Pressing PLAY/PAUSE from Play Mode will freeze the video and mute the audio (Pause Mode); a second press resumes Play Mode. (Note the RC-89 Remote Control Unit has separate Play and Pause buttons.)

Pressing STOP from Play Mode puts the transport into Resume Mode; video and audio stop and a blank screen will be displayed:

Pressing PLAY/PAUSE from this state resumes playback of the disc from the point at which it was stopped. Pressing STOP a second time puts the player into Stop Mode.

From Stop Mode, playback will re-commence at a point determined at the disc authoring stage; this may be the start of Chapter 1, the Title Menu, or main Disc Menu in the case of multi-Title discs, or the start of the disc itself.

The programme may be scanned (searched) at high speed by pressing the FFWD buttons. A single press initiates scanning at 2x normal play speed; subsequent presses double the speed to a maximum of 16x normal, when one more press returns to 2x. PLAY/PAUSE

may be pressed at any time to resume normal playback.

Audio is muted during search.

(Forward) or FREW (Reverse)

Accessing the Disc Menus

The Titles on a DVD-V will generally consist of several Chapters. Although some commercial DVD-V discs consist of a single Title, it is possible for a disc to contain more than one, each Title being further subdivided into Chapters. Further, copyright and other information may be recorded as one or more separate Titles, but access to them is restricted, and thus the disc only has a single Title from the user’s point of view. These matters are determined at the disc authoring stage.

Pressing MENU the disc to the Root Menu for the currently-selected Title, allowing selection of its Chapters. A multi-Title disc will possess a further menu, allowing individual Titles on the disc to be selected. This menu is accessed with the TOP MENU button (or its remote control equivalent).

Note that on discs containing a single Title, MENU and TOP MENU will generally both access the Root Menu for the single Title.

(or its remote control equivalent) will locate

Chapter Selection

In addition to the use of the NEXT and PREVIOUS buttons described above, playback from the start of a specific chapter can also be selected by using the remote control unit’s Direct Access Keys. It will normally (though dependent on how the disc is authored) be possible to jump to a specific chapter from the Title Menu.

Using the Direct Access Keys

The remote control’s Direct Access Keys will select a chapter by number, and can be used from Play, Resume and Stop Modes. Chapters 1 to 9 can be selected by a single button press, Chapters 10 and above can be selected by pressing the ‘+10’ button first, once for 10-19, twice for 20-29, etc , e.g., to select Chapter 15, press ‘+10’ followed by ‘5’. It is not necessary to press MARK/ENTER.

From PLAY mode, the NEXT and PREVIOUS buttons will move the play location to the start of the next or previous chapter respectively.

Using the Title Menu

Most DVDs’ Title Menus will include an option to select an individual chapter for playback. The wording and style used is under the control of the disc author and thus varies widely, but the word ‘scene’ is normally used instead of ‘chapter’ in longformat programme such as feature films. (The list of available scenes is often illustrated with the first frame of the chapter.) The cursor keys are used to select the chapter to be played. The “selected” track will be indicated in the chapter list by some form of “highlighting”, and it will start playing when either PLAY/ PAUSE or MARK/ENTER is pressed.

The UDP-89’s front panel display shows the elapsed time of the currently-selected Title (in the form h:mm:ss). “Zero” time will generally be the start of Chapter 1.

Pressing DISPLAY on the RC-89 Remote Control Unit while a DVD-V is loaded generates an on-screen text banner superimposed on the video image. A typical example is shown below:

Along with other information, the banner confirms current unit settings for audio track and viewing angle selection and enabling of subtitles. These settings are described in a later section of the manual. As they are not confirmed elsewhere, it is always useful to use the Display function when changing them. A second press of DISPLAY cancels the banner.

Additional Features

The UDP-89’s Search function provides a method of quickly locating to any point on the disc and commencing playback from there. The location point is entered in standard hh:mm:ss format (hours, minutes and seconds) and may be either the track/chapter time or the disc time.

The Search function is entered with the SEARCH button on the remote control unit. (Note there is no alternative front panel control for this function.)

A pop-up window appears on the on-screen display, superimposed on the current image. This contains various data fields into which track numbers or times may be entered using the 0-9 numeric keys. The fields offered depend on disc type and also transport mode.

Locating to a CD Track or DVD Title or Chapter

Move the yellow border to the Track field (CDs) or Title* or Chapter field (DVDs) with the UP/DOWN cursor keys. Enter the number of the Track, Title or Chapter using the 0-9 numeric keys on the remote control unit and press MARK/ENTER . The disc will locate to the start of the selected Track, Title or Chapter and playback will immediately commence from there. The Search window closes.

Note: Many commercial DVD-Vs only contain one Title constituting the main programme material.

Locating to a time point

Move the yellow border to the Time (CDs or DVDs) or Disc Time (CDs only) field. Enter the locate time in hours, minutes and seconds using the 0-9 numeric keys on the remote control unit and press MARK/ENTER. The disc will locate to this time point and playback will immediately commence from there.

The Time field displayed for DVDs and the Disc Time field displayed for CDs both refer to the total Title or disc time, and thus the time point located to using these fields will be relative to “time zero” at the start of the disc’s programme material.

The Time field displayed for CDs when a track is in Play or Pause Modes refers to the duration of the currently selected track only. A time entered in this field will be relative to the start of the current track.

a) DVD Search

b) CD Search in Play and Pause

c) CD Search in Stop

Above are shown the Search mode on-screen windows with (a) DVDs, (b) CDs in Play and Pause Modes and (c) CDs in Stop Mode. The field at the top of the list will be selected, indicated by a yellow border. Data can be entered into this field by using the numeric keys. Alternative fields can be selected by using the UP and DOWN cursor keys on the remote control unit (or front panel ).

If the time of the required locate point is less than one hour (01:00:00), only minutes and seconds need to be entered; similarly for locate points less than one minute (00:01:00), only the seconds need to be entered. However, trailing zeroes must be entered when the locate time is an exact number of minutes (or indeed, hours).

Examples:

LOCATE TIME (hh:mm:ss) KEYSTROKES

Storing and Cueing to a Marker Point

The UDP-89 has a “scratchpad” location memory, which can be used to store a marker point in programme material “on-the-fly”. The marker point can easily be recalled and located to at a later time.

The feature is entered by pressing the CUE button (either on the front panel remote control unit) while a disc is playing, which causes the front panel display and the popup window below to be shown.

or the

Locating to the Marker point:

Press CUE to open the Cue pop-up window, and press MARK/ ENTER. The disc will immediately locate to the Cue point and play from there (unless Auto-Pause Mode is enabled; see next section). The pop-up window closes.

Note: The time loaded into the memory includes the track number (in the case of CDs) as well as the Track Time, though only the Track Time is displayed. The CUE feature may be used to re-locate to a point within a different CD track to that currently playing. In the case of DVDs, the overall disc time is stored.

Clearing the memory:

Pressing CLR (on the remote control unit) or either the LEFT or RIGHT front-panel cursor keys while the Cue window is on-screen will clear the contents of the memory. The front panel display shows Cue Cleared in confirmation and the MARK flag extinguishes. Unless cleared, a Marker point remains stored until the disc is removed from the unit.

Auto-Pause

The UDP-89’s Auto-Pause Mode allows accurate cueing to the start of a track (CDs) or chapter (DVDs). The transport enters Pause Mode at the start of the track/chapter, awaiting a PLAY command.

Auto-Pause Mode is enabled by pressing the A-PAUSE button on the front panel control unit. The selection is confirmed by the A.PAUSE flag in the front-panel display.

or remote

Initially, the Cue memory is empty. Note that the wording in the pop-up window changes slightly with other disc types.

Storing a Marker point:

Pressing MARK/ENTER while the Cue memory is displayed will store the playback location at that instant into the memory. This is confirmed by the MARK flag in the front panel display. The time saved into memory is displayed both on-screen and on the front panel, see above. Note that the track/chapter number is also displayed on the front panel with an alternating display.

The current play point can only be stored if the memory is empty. Pressing it when the memory already contains a valid time will cause the disc to locate to that point (see next section). Thus marking a point during audition and then subsequently relocating back to it requires only two keystrokes.

A further press of the CUE button cancels the displays; the contents of the memory remains saved as long as the disc remains loaded.

When Auto-Pause Mode is enabled, the unit will enter Pause Mode automatically after a re-location to a different disc location has been commanded by any method, including:

Slow-motion playback

The UDP-89 has a Slow Mode, which permits the replay of the video content of DVD-Video discs and VCD/SVCD discs in slowmotion.

Slow-motion replay is enabled by pressing the SLOW button on the remote control unit.

Note that it is not possible to enable Slow Mode from the UDP-89’s front panel.

Slow Mode may be entered from Play, Pause, FFWD or FREW Modes. A single press of SLOW causes the video output to replay at approx. 1/2x normal speed; further presses reduce the replay speed further in steps until the motion reverses to half normal play speed. Further presses then reduce the reverse speed further.

Pressing PLAY exits Slow Mode and returns the disc to normal play speed; FFWD and FREW Modes can also be selected directly from Slow Mode.

Slow Mode is confirmed in the front panel display as in the example shown below.

Program Play

Sometimes it necessary to play individual items of programme material on a disc in an order other than that in which they are recorded. The UDP-89’s Program function permits the user to program the order in which tracks (CD, SACD or DVD-A) or chapters (DVD) are replayed. Up to 30 CD tracks or 12 DVD chapters (or SACD tracks) may be sequenced in this way. The programming method differs slightly for audio and video disc types.

For DVDs and SACDs, the Program function is enabled by pressing the PROGRAM button on the remote control unit. For CDs, it is enabled via the OSD.

Note: It is not possible to enable the DVD/SACD Program function from the UDP-89’s front panel.

Programming tracks on audio CDs (and CD/DVD-ROMs containing MP3, jpg or avi files)

Note: Track programming is performed using the on-screen display, so a video monitor must be connected to the UDP-89 for the Program function to be used.

The Program function can be selected from Stop or Play Modes. Use the cursor keys to highlight the selections available on the right of the screen

The video may be frozen while in Slow Mode by pressing the PAUSE button on the remote control unit, and Slow Mode resumed by a further press of SLOW. However, note that pressing the front panel PLAY/PAUSE button from Slow Mode will cause the unit to re-enter normal Play Mode, not Pause.

With discrete video files (*.mpg or *.avi), the front panel display shows the slow speed sub-multiple. Slow Mode is not available in reverse with these file types.

The audio output from the disc is muted during Slow Mode.

Slow Mode is inoperative with CDs.

Program Edit Mode

Note that Edit mode is selected, indicated by the yellow border. Press MARK/ENTER

to confirm the selection. Navigate the yellow border back to the tracklist with the cursor keys , and select the tracks to be played in the order that they are required, pressing MARK/ENTER to select each one in turn; a tick appears alongside each of the selected tracks. Navigate the yellow border back to Add to Program, and press MARK/ ENTER. The tick marks next to the tracks will disappear.

By selecting the Program view option in a similar way, only the tracks selected to be played will be displayed in the main browser window, in the correct order. The Program view button changes its legend to Browser view, and will toggle between the two views.

Programming chapters on DVD-Video and DVD-Audio, and tracks on SACD

Using the Program function with video discs generates a popup window on the video image. Program can be selected from STOP. Before programming a sequence of chapters, check the programme material and make a note of the Title and Chapter numbers required.

c) Program Clear

Navigate the yellow border to the first pair of blank fields on the right and enter the Title No. and Chapter No. of the disc item which should be the first to be replayed (For SACD, only track numbers need be entered; for DVD-A Group and Track numbers are required). The subsequent items can be added in turn by moving the yellow border down with the cursor keys and entering the Title and Chapter (or track) numbers of each. Up to 12 selections can be made, cursoring down from the lowest visible will reveal further blank fields (see (b) above for example).

When the sequence has been programmed, playback can be started by navigating the yellow border to Play, and pressing MARK/ENTER.

The programmed sequence may be cleared by navigating to Play and scrolling down when Clear program will be revealed. Press MARK/ENTER to clear (see (c) above).

It is not possible to edit the program list during PLAY. Also, the front panel will show the Title, Chapter, Group or track number as they are on the disc, not with respect to their position in the list.

Pressing PROGRAM produces the on-screen display shown at (a) below:

At the end of the disc, playback will immediately restart from the start of the disc’s programme material (or in the case of DVDs, the current Title). With CDs, Repeat All can be cancelled at any time by pressing STOP. Note that when playing DVDs, pressing STOP does not cancel Repeat unless it is pressed a second time to cancel Resume Mode; alternatively, the function may be cancelled by cycling through the options to Repeat Off.

Pause, FFWD and FREW transport modes can still be used while Repeat All is set. Repeat All remains active even if the play location is advanced/retarded through track/chapter boundaries.

Selection of Repeat functions from the OSD

With CDs and other disc types generating an on-screen browser page (e.g. CD-ROMs containing MP3 files) - but not SACDs - the cursor keys may be used to enable Repeat 1 and Repeat All.

Repeat Folder

A further Repeat option, Repeat Folder, is available for discs containing files of type such as MP3 or jpg. Selection of Repeat Folder will cause the disc to play all the files in the currentlyselected folder repeatedly, but will ignore files in other folders, including any nested within the currently-selected one.

Note: The on-screen display and the front panel display both confirm Repeat status, regardless of the selection method.

Repeat A-B

The UDP-89 will continuously replay a segment of material whose start and end points have been user-defined. Both start and end points must be within the same track (or chapter); it is not possible to define a loop across a track/chapter boundary.

Repeat A-B is enabled with the A-B button on the remote control unit. The start and end points of the section to be repeated are captured “on the fly”, with the unit in Play Mode. As the programme material is playing, press the A-B button once at the start of the section to be repeated. The display confirms the selection for a few seconds as shown:

At the end of the segment to be repeated, press the A–B a second time; the display again confirms briefly:

The cursor keys can be used to navigate the yellow border from the tracklist pane to the Filter pane and the Repeat field.

Pressing MARK/ENTER with the Repeat field selected will cycle the parameter through Off to Single, Folder, All and back to Off. Setting the parameter to Single is equivalent to Repeat 1, as described above; similarly, setting it to All is equivalent to Repeat All.

The playback location immediately jumps back to the point defined as ‘A’, and the section of programme between points ‘A’ and ‘B’ will now be played repeatedly. Repeat A-B will remain active until STOP is pressed, at which time, the display will confirm cancellation of the Repeat mode:

Shuffle Mode

Shuffle Mode allows the tracks on a CD or chapters on a DVD to be played in a random order. The method of enabling Shuffle Mode is different for the two disc types.

Shuffle Mode – DVDs

With DVDs, it is selected by pressing the RANDOM button on the remote control unit while the disc is playing; selection is confirmed by the SHUFFLE flag on the front panel display.

Music Intro Mode

Music Intro is a useful method of identifying tracks on a CD-A or a disc containing MP3 audio files. When selected, only the first 10 seconds of each track or file on the disc is played.

It is enabled in the same way described above for Shuffle Mode; a second press of MARK/ENTER with the mode field highlighted will select Music Intro. Confirmation of the mode is also given in the front panel display, which displays the text Intro Scan for approximately 2 seconds.

Music Intro may be combined with Repeat Mode if wished. To cancel Music Intro Mode, set the mode parameter to Off.

Audio configuration

Stereo and multi-channel audio

The UDP-89 is equipped with both stereo and multichannel analogue audio outputs; additionally, S/PDIF and AES/EBU digital outputs are provided. Not all outputs are available simultaneously, and which outputs carry what information is determined both by user selection and disc type.

Normal stereo audio will be available at both the main L/R outputs and the L discs carrying only 2-channel audio programme material, such as standard CDs.

Once selected, the disc continues to play normally, except that the chapters will be played in random order without repetition until they have all been played. To cancel Shuffle Mode, press RANDOM a second time.

SHUFFLE Mode - CDs

With CDs, Shuffle Mode is enabled via the on-screen browser page. Using the cursor keys, navigate the yellow border from the tracklist pane to the Filter pane, and select the mode field. Repeated presses of MARK/ENTER cycles the mode parameter through Normal, Shuffle, Music Intro and back to Normal. Select Shuffle to enable the random play feature.

As with DVDs, Shuffle Mode is confirmed by the SHUFFLE flag in the front panel display. To cancel Shuffle Mode, set the mode parameter to Off.

Note: The first track to be played in Shuffle Mode will always be track 1.

When playing disc types offering a choice of audio formats (stereo or multichannel), the choice of which to play is made by the user. The method of selection varies with disc type, as summarised below:

Digital audio data in various formats is available at the two S/PDIF connectors (optical

and coaxial ), the AES/EBU output and also the dedicated HDMI connector . (See rear panel connections on page 10.) The data available will depend on disc type and, in the case of the S/PDIF outputs, also on the setting of the Digital Output parameter in the Audio tab of the Setup Menu. The table below summarises the digital audio outputs for various disc types:

1 The SACD format restricts the output quality of any downmixed output. Therefore, the Lt/Rt Stereo outputs are limited to 16-bit PCM resolution

when playing SACDs, including the SACD-stereo track. This applies to all digital outputs (S/PDIF, AES/EBU and HDMI), and the stereo analogue

outputs. Therefore when working in stereo, improved analogue quality will be available from the front L/R outputs.

The AUDIO button

The RC-89’s AUDIO button may be used to select alternative audio programmes on DVD-V and DVD-A discs that offer them. Pressing AUDIO scrolls through the available programmes, which may include different audio encoding systems such as

DolbyDigital®orDTS®,alternativelanguagesora“director’s

commentary”. The inclusion of any alternative audio programme is determined at the disc authoring stage; many commercial DVD-V discs do not offer it.

No visual confirmation of which audio programme is currently selected is given, unless DISPLAY is enabled (see “Time & Other Displays” on page 25). The data in the Audio field changes as AUDIO is pressed, indicating the number of the audio programme, and (typically) the encoding system employed, number of audio channels available and language.

Dolby Digital

TheUDP-89isequippedtodecodeDolbyDigital®audiofrom

DVD-V and DVD-A discs containing programme material thus

multichannel audio will be available at both sets of multichannel analogue audio outputs, and a downmix of this at the main L/R analogue outputs and the AES/EBU digital output. The output at the S/PDIF and HDMI digital outputs can be either the same downmix, or the raw Dolby Digital bitstream; this is determined by the setting of Digital Output in the audio Setup menu. The front panel display will show Dolby D when a Dolby audio track is playing.

DTS

multichannel audio will be available at both sets of multichannel analogue audio outputs, and a downmix of this at both the main L/R analogue outputs and the AES/EBU digital output. The output at the S/PDIF and HDMI digital outputs can be either the same downmix, or the raw DTS bitstream; this is determined by the setting of Digital Output in the audio Setup menu. A DTS flag will illuminate in the front panel display when a DTS audio track is playing.

It can be seen from the table that the S/PDIF outputs will produce either a downmix of the multichannel audio, or a raw bitstream for external decoding. This is determined by the Digital Output setting in the audio submenu; setting this to PCM will generate the downmix, setting it to Bitstream will generate the raw encoded audio data alternative.

Multichannel bass management

Practical surround sound loudspeaker systems frequently have smaller units in the rear and centre positions, and these may not offer an extended LF response compared with the main left and right front speakers. Other systems may not include a centre speaker at all, or no dedicated sub-woofer. The UDP-89 includes a set of user-selectable options for re-directing some or the entire frequency spectrum in some channels to different speakers, to ensure that all programme material in all channels is reproduced in such systems.

The various options are set in the Audio tab of the Setup menu. See “Audio settings” on page 40 for more details. The table below summarises the possibilities available:

Multichannel level trims

It is also possible to adjust the levels of the individual channels of the analogue multichannel (surround) outputs. This is typically desirable when different models of speakers are being used in the rear and/or centre positions from the main front L/R speakers, and permits the differing sensitivities of the speakers to be allowed for.

Multichannel level trim is adjusted from the RC-89 remote control unit. Pressing either of the CH SELECT buttons allows adjustment of the Front Left channel, the front panel display showing:

Adjustment of the level in the front left channel is made with the CH LEVEL up-and-down buttons. Other channels may be adjusted in turn by further presses of the CH SELECT buttons, which will select the other channels in turn:

Note: The settings of the surround speakers will also affect the downmix format used for the main left and right outputs.

Audio level and delay adjustment

Audio Volume

Adjustment of overall audio level is available in the UDP-89 via the VOLUME buttons on the RC-89 remote control unit. The front panel display confirms the level setting when the buttons are pressed. The range of level adjustment available is from

-90 dB to 0 dB, in 1 dB increments. If the Vol Down button continues to be pressed beyond -90 dB, the audio is muted and the front panel display indicates MUTE.

When the audio output level is set to 0 dB, the balanced analogue audio outputs are calibrated to produce a maximum level of +22 dBu. The following table shows some “national standard” settings in common use in some countries.

VOLUME CONTROL

SETTING

0dB +22dBu USA, Canada

-4dB +18dBu UK (BBC Standard)

-7dB +15dBu Germany

-10dB +12dBu Germany & elsewhere

MAX OUTPUT LEVEL USED IN

The function and display time out after approx. 5 secs. if no button is pressed, and the unit reverts to normal operation.

Note: When the main volume control is set to 0 dB, the output level for each channel is at its maximum. Therefore, to apply positive gain to each channel level, it is necessary to first turn down the master volume control by the same amount, i.e., to boost the surround channels by 3 dB relative to the other channels, the master volume must be adjusted by at least -3dB.

UDP-89 User Manual Version 2.0 www.hhb.co.uk

Pink Noise calibration

The optimum setting is for the audio level from all the speakers in a multichannel system-up to be the same. This can be difficult to achieve with many types of programme material and to facilitate adjustment the UDP-89 provides an internal pink noise source to generate a known audio level, which can be applied to each channel in turn. The listener can then adjust the audio level in each channel so that the perceived sound level at the listening position is equal for all speakers.

The noise source is enabled and routed as required via the Audio tab of the Setup Menu. See page 40 for full details. Exiting the menu will automatically turn the source off.

Multichannel delays

Depending on the size of the room, the acoustic path length between the listening position and the centre and/or rear speakers may be sufficiently different from that between the listening position and the main front L/R speakers for sound from multiple speakers to be heard at slightly different times. The UDP-89 allows delays to be introduced into the main front L/R channels to time-align them with the centre and/or rear channels.

The delays are adjusted via the Audio tab of the Setup Menu. Separate adjustment for the centre and rear channels is provided. See page 40 for full details.

Video configuration

NTSC/PAL

The UDP-89 is able to play DVD Video discs recorded to either NTSC or PAL TV System standards. Most modern monitors, TVs, projectors, etc. are capable of resolving both NTSC and PAL standard video signals.

The TV standard available at the composite and S-video outputs is determined in the Setup Menu, by the setting of the TV System item in the Video submenu. See page 39 for full details. The factory default setting is Auto; the output video signal will follow the TV standard of the signal recorded on the disc. This should be satisfactory with most modern display devices.

The TV standards are summarised below. The two standards also differ in their methods of encoding chroma information.

Progressive and interlaced scan

The UDP-89 supports both interlaced and progressive scan standard definition (SD) video formats as well as certain high definition (HD) formats.

Progressive scan is only available from the component YUV and HDMI outputs. SD resolutions of 480p (NTSC) or 576p (PAL), and HD resolutions of 720p and 1080i may be selected via the HD Resolution item in the Video submenu. See page 39 for full details.

Replay of 16:9 format video

Playback of both standard 4:3 aspect ratio and widescreen 16:9 material is supported by the UDP-89.

The Aspect Ratio item in the Video tab of the Setup menu determines how widescreen (16:9) material should be reproduced; this menu item should be set according to the type of display device in use. See page 38 for full details of how to set this.

Additionally, the UDP-89 will signal the presence of widescreen material via WSS (WideScreen Switching) when playing PAL video discs (or NTSC video discs converted to PAL). This system utilises Line 23 of the PAL video signal, and the signalisation will be recognised by most widescreen monitors. On receipt of the widescreen “flag”, the external monitor should automatically switch to widescreen mode.

Signalling of the widescreen format is also possible with NTSC and 480p/576p progressive scan video signals. The UDP-89 outputs the appropriate widescreen “flags”, however not all display devices may be able to correctly interpret the signalisation.

HDMI formats

The rear panel HDMI connector carries both High Definition (HD) digital video and multichannel digital audio, for connection to suitable HD display devices. The HD video formats are also available (with some restrictions) at the analogue component video outputs. The audio may also be obtained independently of the HDMI connector at the S/PDIF digital audio outputs.

The HDMI output will only be active if the Video out item on the

Video tab of the Setup menu is set to Progressive YUV or HD YUV/HDMI. Selection of 480i & 576i video formats disables

the output.

SD resolutions of 480p (NTSC) and, 576p (PAL), plus HD resolutions of 720p and 1080i are supported. The HDMI output may automatically set itself to the resolution of the display device (this will also affect all analogue video outputs), but each of these resolutions may be “forced” by the player, by altering the setting of the HD Resolution item in the Video tab of the Setup menu. See page 39 for more details.

The HI-DEF button

Output video format is normally set via the Setup menu (see page 39); in many situations, once it is set it rarely needs to be changed.

RGB-to-SCART connections

Display devices equipped with suitable SCART connectors (so-called SCART 1 type) may be able to receive RGB component video to produce a picture of significantly higher quality than composite video. Check with the display device’s manual to ensure that the SCART connector is suitably equipped.

This type of connection should be implemented instead of composite video wherever possible. However note that it is also necessary to connect the rear panel CVBS and RGB Switching outputs. A SCART connector wired as per the diagram below should work in most cases.

This is particularly useful if the format has been left at an HD resolution and the unit then subsequently connected to a monitor or TV that either doesn’t support the higher resolutions, or via the composite or S-video outputs.

The diagram below shows what options are available via the HI-DEF button

The HI-DEF button on the IR remote control allows selection of the output video format at any time without having to access the menu.

Angle selection

Some DVD Video discs include one or more alternative video tracks, often shot with different camera angles.

These tracks may be viewed, if available, by pressing the ANGLE button on the remote control unit, which will step through the alternatives available.

To check whether a DVD Video disc contains any alternative “Angles”, press the DISPLAY button on the remote control unit to reveal the on-screen banner (see page 25). The ANGLE information is displayed in the form Angle m/n, where n is the number of alternative tracks available on the disc, and m is the number of the currently-selected track.

Note: The inclusion of alternative audio tracks is at the discretion of the disc authoring stage.

Zoom

The UDP-89’s Zoom feature lets you zoom in on the central area of the displayed video image. Zoom is activated with the ZOOM button on the remote control unit.

There are three levels of Zoom; successive presses of the ZOOM button step through the magnifications, the front panel display confirming ZOOM 1, ZOOM 2 and ZOOM 3 in turn. A further press returns the image to normal.

ZOOM 3 is approximately equivalent to 2x magnification. The Zoom feature is operative in all transport modes including Pause and Slow. However, it is cancelled by Resume or Stop Modes.

Subtitles

If subtitles are available on a disc, they can be enabled by pressing the SUBTITLE button the remote control unit.

Confirmation that subtitles are enabled can be obtained by pressing the DISPLAY button on the remote control unit.

The Subtitle field on the banner will either indicate the selected subtitle (e.g. 1/1 Eng, but there may be more than one) or Off. If multiple subtitles are available, successive presses of SUBTITLE will step through them.

Eject Lock

The UDP-89’s disc drawer can be locked to prevent inadvertent opening. This is a useful feature when the player is installed in an exhibition or display situation, for example. When Eject Lock is enabled, the disc drawer can only be opened when the drive is in Stop Mode (note that it remains locked in Resume Mode).

Eject Lock is enabled with the LOCK button on the RC-89 remote control. Pressing LOCK generates the front panel display shown at (a) below for a few seconds, after which the EJECT buttons on the front panel

and remote control will be inoperative. Attempting to open the disc drawer will cause the display at (b) below to be shown. Eject Lock can be cancelled at any time with a second press of LOCK, the cancelling being confirmed by the display at (c) below.

SCMS Compliance

The SCMS (Serial Copy Management System) was developed to restrict the number of copies which could be made from a digital audio recording via the digital domain. The system has been incorporated into all consumer digital audio equipment for many years. With commercially-produced CDs, it limits the number of copies which can be made by using an S/PDIF interconnection to one.

The UDP-89 is SCMS-compliant in playback; the SCMS bits in the S/PDIF digital outputs are set according to the copy protection status of the disc being played. SCMS does not apply to the AES/EBU digital output.

Setup Menu

Many of the UDP-89’s settings and options are controlled via the Setup Menu, which is accessed with the SETUP button on either the front panel or the RC-89 remote control unit. The front panel confirms Setup with the message:

The Setup Menu appears on-screen, and is arranged as five tabbed submenus.

Menu Navigation

Navigation through the menu system is with the front panel cursor controls , or via the remote control; the currentlyselected menu item is always highlighted with a yellow border. The menu system is always entered at the first submenu (Language); use the DOWN cursor key to select the other submenus in turn, selecting the one required by pressing the RIGHT cursor key. The first item in that menu is then highlighted.

To change the setting of any submenu item, press the MARK/ ENTER button , when a pop-up list of the available settings for the item will appear. The currently-selected one will be ticked, and if an different setting is required, it can be selected by moving the yellow border with the UP or DOWN cursor keys. Selection is made by pressing MARK/ENTER. An example is shown below.

Use the LEFT cursor key to exit a submenu back to the tabs, when another submenu can be selected, or the Setup Menu can be exited by pressing SETUP again.

Language Settings

The Language submenu permits a choice of language for various unit and disc functions. Six languages are available in the UDP-89:

English•

French•

Spanish•

German•

Italian•

Japanese•

OSD language – sets the language used in the UDP-89’s onscreen menus and pop-up windows. Note that Japanese is not available.

Subtitle – sets the language for subtitles. Note that subtitles will only be displayed in the selected language if they are available on the disc. Further, some discs may override this setting and others may require the subtitle language choice to be made from a disc menu. In addition to the six languages, this menu also offers Off and Auto as options. Note that Italian is not available.

Audio – Sets the preferred language for the soundtrack on a DVD-Video disc, if that language is available. Note that Italian is not available.

DVD menu - Sets the preferred language for the menu screens on a DVD-Video disc, if that language is available. Most discs will only contain menus in one language. Note that Italian is not available.

Video settings

Aspect Ratio — sets how video programme material recorded in 16:9 widescreen format is reproduced. Aspect Ratio should be set correctly for the type of monitor in use. The available settings are:

Some of the items in the Video and Audio submenus generate a temporary confirmation message on the front panel display as the settings are changed; this can be useful if no video monitor is connected.

Setup Menu

• 4:3Letterbox: Anamorphic widescreen material is displayed on a 4:3 screen with black bars at the top and bottom. Use this setting if you have a conventional 4:3 monitor (or other display device) and prefer to view widescreen material in letterbox format.

• 4:3Pan&Scan: Anamorphic widescreen material is cropped at the sides and will pan left/right (according to information on the disc) so as to occupy the full height of a 4:3 monitor. This mode needs to supported by the disc; if it is not, the video will be displayed as 4:3 Letterbox.

• 16:9Widescreen: Widescreen material is displayed in the correct aspect ratio for a widescreen display device. Select this setting if you have a widescreen monitor.

Note: Anamorphic compression is an optical technique to precompress wide pictures into a narrower frame, for example 16:9 material into a standard 720 pixel 4:3 picture format. The picture is “squashed” in at the sides so that when it is stretched across the wider 16:9 screen of a widescreen display, the correct aspect ratio is restored.

Also note that non-widescreen material is not affected by the Aspect ratio setting.

TV System — this should be set according to the prevailing video standard in your territory. The options are:

• Auto — this is the factory default setting. With TV System set to Auto, the video output follows the standard recorded on the disc. This is the best setting if your display device is able to auto-select between NTSC and PAL formats. When no disc is playing, the standard used is that of the last video disc or file played.

• NTSC — video outputs will be to the NTSC standard. Select this setting if your display device is NTSC-only. Note that PAL video discs will be converted to NTSC, but this may cause a reduction in the quality of the displayed video. If your display device can auto-select NTSC or PAL, Auto will generally be a better setting for playing PAL discs.

• PAL — video outputs will be to the PAL standard. Select this setting if your display device is PAL-only. Note that NTSC video discs will be converted to PAL, but this may cause a reduction in the quality of the displayed video. If your display device can auto-select NTSC or PAL, Auto will generally be a better setting for playing NTSC discs.

See also “NTSC/PAL” on page 35 for additional information regarding NTSC/PAL compatibility with various disc types.

Video out — this setting determines the video format available at the rear panel Component video outputs HDMI output . The first three options are for Standard Definition (SD) displays; select HD YUV/HDMI when using an HD-capable display connected to the digital HDMI output or analogue component outputs:

• RGB — this sets the analogue component outputs to RGB format, at an interlaced resolution of 480i (NTSC) or 576i (PAL). The HDMI output is off.

InterlaceYUV• — this sets the analogue component outputs to YUV format, at an interlaced resolution of 480i (NTSC) or 576i (PAL). The HDMI output is off.

• Progressive YUV — this sets the analogue component and HDMI outputs to YUV format, at a progressive resolution of 480p (NTSC) or 576p (PAL).

HDYUV/HDMI• — this sets the analogue component and HDMI outputs to YUV format, at a High Definition (HD) resolution of 720p or 1080i, as selected by the HD Resolution setting (see next menu item). The progressive SD formats of 480p and 576p are also repeated.

When the video output format is changed, additional pop-up dialogue boxes will request confirmation that the change should take place, as changing the format when an unsuitable display device is connected will result in a scrambled image.

and the digital

HD Resolution — This setting determines the video resolution of HD video outputs at the HDMI connector video connectors , if available. This setting is only adjustable if Video out is set to HD YUV/HDMI, otherwise HD Resolution is set to AUTO HDMI. The options are:

• AUTO HDMI — This is the default setting; the video resolution of the HDMI and component outputs is set automatically to the “preferred” format of any HDMI display connected to it, and no user interaction is required. Note that this auto-mode may not be supported and the resolution will default to 480p/576p. In this case, the higher resolutions of 720p and 1080i may be manually selected below.

• 480p/576p — This sets the HD outputs to progressive scan versions of SD NTSC or PAL resolutions – 480p (NTSC) or 576p (PAL).

• 720p — sets to HD progressive resolution, 720 x 1280

• 1080i — sets to HD interlaced resolution, 1080 x 1920

Note: Not all display devices will correctly display the 1080i output from PAL discs (1080i/50) when connected to the component outputs of the UDP-89. If HDMI is available, this should be used instead.

Also note that the composite and S-video outputs are only active at the SD 480/576 resolutions.

When the HD resolution is changed, additional pop-up dialogue boxes will request confirmation that the change should take place, as changing the resolution when an unsuitable display device is connected will result in a scrambled image.

The front panel display also briefly confirms each new video resolution as it is selected.

Audio settings

Refer to Multichannel bass management on page 34 and Audio level and delay adjustment on page 34. The crossover frequency of the bass management is 100Hz.

Bass management — When set to On, low frequencies below 100 Hz in the centre and rear channels (when set to Small) are sent to the front channels. Setting this item to Off (the default) cancels this filtering, and the centre and rear channels receive the full frequency range.

Front speakers — The default setting is Large, which routes the full frequency response in the front channels to the front speakers as normal. Selecting Small re-routes the LF content (<100 Hz) in these channels to the LFE channel (sub-woofer). Note that it is not possible to select Small if there is no subwoofer in the system (see below), nor is it possible if Bass

management is selected Off.

Center speaker — The default setting is Large, which routes

the full frequency response in the centre channel to the centre speaker. Selecting Small re-routes the LF content in this channel (<100 Hz) to the front L & R speakers. Note that it is not possible to select Small if Bass management is selected Off. A third option, Off, should be selected if there is no centre speaker in the system. In this case, information in the centre channel is routed at equal level to the front left and right speakers, creating a “phantom” centre image.

Subwoofer — The default setting is Present, which routes the LFE channel to the sub-woofer speaker. If the system does not have a sub-woofer, this item should be set to None, when the content of the LFE channel is routed equally to the front L and R channels.

Test Tones — This item activates the internal white noise generator, which can be routed to each of six multichannel outputs in turn to allow accurate balancing of the volume from each speaker in the system. Default setting is Off; exiting this menu item automatically selects Off.

Center delay — Setting this item to a value other than Off inserts a finite delay in the centre channel. As the centre speaker is the closest to the listening position, the delay timealigns the channel with the front L and R channels. Calibration is in 0.3 m steps, from 0.3 m (1 ft.) to 1.7 m (5 ft.), this distance representing the distance from the listener to the centre speaker. Select the value closest to that applicable to your room.

Surr. Delay — This operates in a similar way to the centre delay. The distances available in the settings are greater, 1 m (3 ft.) to 5.1 m (approx. 16 ft.), reflecting the fact that rear surround speakers are generally much further away from the listening position than the front speakers. Select the value closest to your room.

Digital output — See “Stereo and multi-channel audio” on page

32. The setting of this item determines the nature of the digital audio data at the S/PDIF and HDMI outputs.

• Off — the S/PDIF digital outputs (and HDMI audio) are muted.

• AUTO HDMI — the type of digital audio format available is determined by the HDMI display device.

• PCM — the S/PDIF and HDMI outputs carry a 2ch. downmix of the multichannel audio programme (excluding SACDs via S/PDIF with downsampling not enabled - see below, in which case the outputs are muted). Refer to the table in “Stereo and multi-channel audio” on page 32.

• Bitstream — the S/PDIF and HDMI outputs carry the raw digital data from the disc for external decoding. Refer to the table in “Stereo and multi-channel audio” on page 32.

Night Mode — Setting Night Mode on applies dynamic range compression to the analogue (and PCM downmix) of Dolby Digital soundtracks, according to the metadata contained in the Dolby Digital bitstream. This makes it easier to set a comfortable lowlevel, or night-time listening volume.

Down sampling — Downsampling should be enabled when playing discs recorded with a sample rate higher than 48 kHz if the equipment connected to the digital outputs (S/PDIF, HDMI and AES/EBU) does not support these higher sample rates.

The table below summarises the sample rate changes available at each digital output for various disc types with downsampling turned On.

CD 44.1 kHz 44.1 kHz 44.1 kHz

SACD 176.4 kHz 44.1 kHz 88.2 kHz

DVD Priority — All DVD-Audio discs also contain a DVD-Video folder to ensure compatibility with all DVD-Video players. The setting of this item determines how the disc will be played by default – either as a DVD-Video disc or DVD-Audio disc. As a DVD-Audio disc, the user may have access to all the DVDVideo material, depending on how the disc is authored. As a DVD-Video disc, the user will have no access to the DVD-Audio material.

Screen Saver — when set On, the HHB logo will appear as a screen saver after a few minutes of non-user intervention.

Timer Mode

The UDP-89 has a Timer Mode which permits a pre-loaded CD/ SACD to automatically commence playing when power is applied to the unit. Timer Mode is enabled by pressing the TIMER button on the remote control; the front panel responds with the text Timer ON.

Remote Control – Parallel Port

The rear panel Parallel Remote Input permits control of five transport functions, and provides tallies for three functions. The five active commands may be selected from a set of eleven (plus NOT USED), the tallies are a fixed set of three (plus NOT USED). These are shown in the table below.

INPUTS

The commands and tallies listed in bold are the factory defaults. If a different command set is preferred, an alternative combination comprising any five (or less) of the thirteen available commands may be reassigned to the inputs via the menu system.

DEFAULT OUTPUTS

(TALLIES)

When Timer Mode is enabled, the unit may be turned off either with the front panel power button or with the STANDBY button on the remote control unit. As long as a CD/SACD is loaded, it will start playing automatically when the power is reapplied. Timer Mode may be cancelled by a second press of TIMER; cancellation is again confirmed by the front panel display:

The Parallel Remote Input is suitable for basic of control of the UDP-89 from a dedicated set of hardware switches or similar. It is also possible to connect an external control system (e.g. Crestron, AMX) to the Parallel Remote Input, using the relays or opto-coupled inputs and outputs within such systems.

Note that the commands available perform exactly the same functions as their front panel and/or remote control unit equivalents. Note also that the separate PLAY and PAUSE commands (part of the default preset assignment) mimic the corresponding remote control unit buttons, but the PLAY/ PAUSE commands (re-assignable) mimics the front panel PLAY/ PAUSE button.

See Appendix 1 on page 44 for details of the pinout and electrical characteristics of the Parallel Port connector.

Note that Timer Mode only functions with CDs and SACDs not discs containing MP3 files. A pre-loaded DVD-Video disc will commence playing automatically on re-powering the unit according to how the disc was authored, whatever the setting of Timer Mode.

The Parallel Port Setup menu is accessed by pressing the SETUP button on the front panel for longer than 0.5 second while no disc is loaded (the front panel display should show No Disc.) The front panel display will then show Parallel Preset.

The Parallel Port outputs (tallies) may be assigned in the same way; Output 1’s assignment will be displayed by a RIGHT cursor key press from Input 5.

The default command set in the Preset memory may be inspected in the same way, but the UP/DOWN cursor keys are non-functional.

The Parallel Port Setup menu will automatically time-out if no button is pressed for approx. 10 seconds; any changes to the Profile memories will be saved at this time. Furthermore, the UDP-89 will always “wake up” after a power-down with the lastused Profile in use.

Remote Control – Serial Port

The rear panel RS232 Port provides serial control of virtually every machine function, parameter and setting.

This section of the manual provides details of the port parameters and an abridged serial command list, which includes the main machine functions. The full RS232 protocol is beyond the scope of this manual, but can be referenced or downloaded as a .pdf file at www.hhb.co.uk.

Pinout

The rear panel connector is a D9M. The pinout is shown in the table:

The Parallel Port provides for one factory default assignment “memory” called Preset (see table on page 41), and two userdefinable assignable memories, Profile 1 and Profile 2. Preset is not alterable. Pressing the LEFT or RIGHT cursor keys step through the three memories.

Initially, the two Profile memories are empty. To assign commands to the inputs, press MARK/ENTER ; the front panel will display then show the current assignment to Input 1 (initially Not Used).

Note 1: The UDP-89’s RS232 port must be enabled by the REMOTE ON command before any further RS232 commands will be accepted. Once REMOTE MODE has been enabled, neither the front panel controls nor the RC-89 handset will operate and operation of the UDP-89 can only be controlled with the RS232 Port or the Parallel Port. REMOTE MODE must be disabled before the front panel controls and handset will function again.

Note 2: Volume adjustment is possible via the RS232 port over the full range of control, from -90 dB to 0 dB, in 1 dB steps. Byte 7 sets the actual volume, and should be in the hex range 01(-90 dB) to 5B (0 dB, max. volume). Setting the byte to 00 mutes the audio.

7E 0D 05 62 13 02 00 00 0B 00 00 00 FF

Note 3: Level trim adjustment of the individual audio channels is possible via the RS232 port over the full range of control, from -10 dB to +10 dB, in 1 dB steps. The value of one of the bytes 7 to 12 should be in the range 01 (-10 dB) to 15 (+10 dB) to effect a level change. The byte (7 to 12) with the non-zero value determines the channel to be adjusted. The valid codes are summarised in the following two tables:

BYTE CHANNEL

Appendix 1 - Connector Pinouts

Electrical characteristics

Both inputs and outputs are internally opto-isolated. The inputs are protected against over-voltages.

Inputs

The inputs simply require a short-to-ground for activation.

Outputs

The outputs are open-collector, and go low when activated. Loads such as LEDs may be connected externally with a suitable series resistor, and returned to the +ve terminal of an external PSU. The maximum current deliverable by the opto-isolator’s transistor is 50 mA. (The –ve side of the external voltage supply should be referenced back to the UDP-89’s 0 v on pin 6.)

Appendix 2 - Firmware Updates

As a responsible manufacturer, HHB adopts a policy of continuous product development. As with all software-based products, it may be desirable from time to time to update the firmware in your UDP-89 with a more recent version. You can contact your HHB dealer or distributor, or visit the HHB website at www.hhb.co.uk for details.

Firmware updates are downloadable from the HHB website, or if you prefer, from your local dealer/distributor on a CD. Alternatively, if you are uncertain about performing a firmware update yourself, take your UDP-89 to your HHB dealer, who will be happy to do it for you.

Performing a firmware update restores all menu settings to their original factory defaults. If you are used to using your UDP-89 for one particular type of work, it may be worthwhile checking through the menus and noting the current settings so that they can be easily restored after the update.

Updating the firmware requires a PC or Mac fitted with a CD(or DVD-) writer drive, and a CD-writing software application. We recommend you read through the instructions below before performing an update for the first time.

To perform a firmware update, proceed as follows:

Downloadthenewfirmwarefilefromwww.hhb.co.uk.Save•

it to a suitable location.

UsingtheCDburningapplicationyouhaveonyour•

computer (such as Roxio, Nero etc.), create a CD containing the update files BUILD.IMG and UPDATE.VER. The CD must be a data CD, not an audio CD, and the update files must be the only ones on the CD.

TurnontheUDP-89,puttheburntupdatediscintothe•

drive and close the tray. After the disc has been read, a dialogue screen will be displayed asking for confirmation to update the firmware. Select START using the cursor and MARK/ENTER keys.

Thefirmwareupdatewillnowproceedautomatically.After•

a short while, the disc will eject. Remove the disc from the tray and then leave the unit alone. Do not close the disc drawer.

Duringtheupdateprocedure,itisessentialthatthepower•

supply to the CDR-882 is not interrupted. Should this occur, the unit will be rendered unusable and will require factory re-initialisation.

TheUDP-89willrebootautomaticallyoncetheupdate•

procedure is complete. This may take up to 5 minutes.

IftheUDP-89hasnotrebootedautomaticallyafter15•

minutes or so, please re-power manually using the front panel power switch.

Software version checks

It may be useful to check which version of firmware is installed in the UDP-89. This procedure can be carried out after a firmware update to confirm that the update has been correctly loaded. The checks below will only be performed if there is no disc in the disc drawer – i.e., the front panel display must show No Disc.

TochecktheversionofthemainCPU,enterthe4-digit•

number 1234, using the remote control unit. The firmware version is shown in the front panel display.

To check the version of the separate MPEG processor, • enter the 3-digit number 164 using the remote control unit. The version number is shown in the front panel display.
