Precautions
1.Regional restriction codes (region number)
Regional restriction codes are built-in to DVD Changers and DVD videos for each sales region. If the regional code of the DVD Changer does not match one of the regional codes of the DVD video, playback is not possible. The region number can be found on the rear panel of the DVD Changer. (e.g: Region 1)
2.About This Manual
This manual explains the basic procedures for operating your DVD Changer. Some DVD videos do not support the full potential of the DVD technology. Your DVD Changer may therefore not respond to all operating commands. Refer to instruction notes on discs. A “ ” mark may appear on the TV screen during operation. It means that the operation is not permitted by the DVD Changer or the disc.
3.Warranty Claim
You can find the serial number on the rear panel of this unit. In case of warranty claim, please report this number.
4.Recording Copyright
Recording of copyrighted material for other than personal use is illegal without permission of the copyright holder.
5.Power
WARNING BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME, READ THE
FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY. The voltage of the available power supply differs according
to country or region. Be sure that the power supply voltage of the area where this unit will be used meets the required voltage (e.g., AC 120 V, 60 Hz) written on the rear panel.
6.Do not touch this unit with wet hands
Do not handle this unit or power cord when your hands are wet or damp. If water or any other liquid enters the case, take this unit to an authorized service center for inspection.
7. Location of this unit
• Place this unit in a well-ventilated location. Take special care to provide plenty of ventilation on all sides
of this unit especially when it is placed in an audio rack. If ventilation is blocked, this unit may overheat and malfunction.
• Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or heating units as this unit's internal temperature may rise and shorten the life of the pickup.
• Avoid damp and dusty places and places directly affected by vibrations from the speakers. In particular, avoid placing the unit on or above one of the speakers.
• Be sure this unit is placed in a horizontal position. Never place it on its side or on a slanted surface as it may malfunction.
• When you place this DVD Changer near a TV, radio, or VCR, the playback picture may become poor and the sound may be distorted. In this case, place the DVD Changer away from the TV, radio, or VCR.
9.Notes on Handling
• When shipping the DVD Changer, use the original shipping carton and packing materials. For maximum protection, repack the unit as it was originally packed at the factory.
• Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near the DVD Changer. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the DVD Changer for a long time. They will leave marks on the finish.
• The top and rear panels of the DVD Changer may become
warm after a long period of use. This is not a malfunction.
• When the DVD Changer is not in use, be sure to remove the disc and turn off the power.
• If you do not use the DVD Changer for a long period, the unit may not function properly in the future. Turn on and use the DVD Changer occasionally.
10. To Obtain a Clear Picture
The DVD Changer is a high technology, precision device. If the optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn down, the picture quality becomes poor. To obtain a clear picture, we recommend regular inspection and maintenance (cleaning or parts replacement) every 1,000 hours of use depending on the operating environment. For details, contact your nearest dealer.
11. Notes on Moisture Condensation
Moisture condensation damages the DVD Changer. Please read the following carefully.
Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you pour a cold drink into a glass on a warm day. Drops of water form on the outside of the glass. In the same way, moisture may condense on the optical pick-up lens inside this unit, one of the most crucial internal parts of the DVD Changer.
• Moisture condensation occurs in the following cases.
- When you bring the DVD Changer directly from a cold place to a warm place.
- When you use the DVD Changer in a room where you just turned on the heater, or a place where the cold wind from the air conditioner directly hits the unit.
- In summer, when you use the DVD Changer in a hot and humid place just after you move the unit from an air conditioned room.
- When you use the DVD Changer in a humid place.
• Do not use the DVD Changer when moisture condensation may occur. If you use the DVD Changer in such a situation, it may damage discs and internal parts. Remove the disc, connect the power cord of the DVD Changer to the wall outlet, turn on the DVD Changer, and leave it for two or three hours. After a few hours, the DVD Changer will have warmed up and evaporated any moisture. Keep the DVD Changer connected to the wall outlet and moisture condensation will seldom occur.
8.Care
From time to time you should wipe the front and rear panels and the cabinet with a soft cloth. For heavier dirt, dampen a soft cloth in a weak solution of mild detergent and water, wring it out dry, and wipe off the dirt. Following this, dry immediately with a clean cloth. Do not use rough material, thinners, alcohol or other chemical solvents or cloths since these could damage the finish or remove the panel lettering.

Selecting the audio outputs
Your DPC-6.1 provides several options for audio playback: you can use the analog or one of the digital audio outputs. If the audio is to be played back by your TV set, connect the ANALOG OUTPUTs to the audio inputs of your TV set and activate them (“Analog 2ch”). See “Audio Settings” on page 36 for details.
Notes:
• See also the instruction manual of the connected TV on how to select the signals transmitted by the DVD Changer.
• Before connecting the DVD Changer to your TV, be sure to turn off the power to and unplug both units from the wall outlet.
• If your TV set has one audio input (monaural), connect a Y cable adapter to the DPC-6.1’s ANALOG OUTPUTs, and the other end of the adapter to the TV’s audio input.
• Be sure to establish a direct video connection between the DPC-6.1 and your TV set. Do not route the video signal through your VCR or other video component. Otherwise the picture may be distorted due to the DVD video’s copy protection.

with COMPONENT VIDEO Inputs
It is also possible to “split” the audio and video signals by sending the video signal to your TV set and
the audio signal to an amplifier. Doing so has the advantage that you can:
• Listen to the sound of audio CDs and DVD videos in stereo (via the amplifier) or in Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic Surround or DTS (see pages 12, 13);
• Enjoy a better picture quality of DVD videos on a TV equipped with Component Video inputs than would be possible via an S-video connection.
Notes
• See also the manuals of your audio amplifier and TV set for establishing the correct connections and making the required settings.
• Before connecting the DVD Changer to other equipment, be sure to turn off the power and unplug all components from the wall outlet.
• This DVD Changer outputs a very dynamic audio signal. Be sure to set the amplifier’s volume to a moderate listening level to avoid damaging your speakers due to sudden volume surges.
• Switch off the amplifier or select another input source before connecting or disconnecting the DVD Changer’s power cable. If you leave the amplifier power on, the speakers may be damaged.
Your DPC-6.1 provides several options for audio playback: you can use the analog or one of the digital audio outputs. If your amplifier only provides analog inputs, use the DPC-6.1’s ANALOG OUTPUTs and select them via the on­screen menu (“Analog 2ch”). See “Audio Settings” on page 36 for details.

COMPONENT VIDEO OUT (COLOR DIFFERENCE):
Some TVs or monitors are equipped with Color Difference inputs. Connecting the DPC-6.1 to these inputs allows you to enjoy a better picture quality. Be sure to match the DPC-6.1’s VIDEO OUTPUTs with the Component Video inputs of your TV or monitor (see the illustration). Actual labels for the Color Difference inputs may vary depending on the TV manufacturer (e.g. Y, B-Y , R-Y, etc.). On some TVs or monitors, the color levels of the picture may be reduced slightly, or the tint may change. In such cases, adjust the TV or monitor for optimum performance.
Note:
If you place the DVD Changer near a tuner or radio, the radio reception might be distorted due to interference. In this case, locate the DPC-6.1 away from the tuner or radio.

equipped with a Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic Surround, or DTS decoder. Furthermore you can transfer the signal of audio CDs to your amplifier in the digital domain if it is fitted with a digital input. See pages 10 and 11 for the video hookup of the DPC-6.1 to your TV set.
When using an optical digital cable, remove the cap from the DIGITAL OUTPUT OPTICAL connector and firmly fit the cable’s jack into the connector. When not using this connector, keep it capped to protect it from dust intrusion.
Notes:
• Before connecting the DVD Changer to other equipment, be sure to turn off the power and unplug all components from the wall outlet.
• This DVD Changer outputs a very dynamic audio signal. Be sure to set the amplifier’s volume to a moderate listening level to avoid damaging your speakers due to sudden volume surges.
• Switch off the amplifier or select another input source before connecting or disconnecting the DVD Changer’s power cable. If you leave the amplifier power on, the speakers may be damaged.

Playback of Dolby Digital-encoded discs requires that you establish a digital connection with the amplifier. The selection of the DPC-
6.1’s DIGITAL OUTPUT depends on the type of digital input provided on your amplifier. Use either the DIGITAL OUTPUT COAXIAL or OPTICAL connector. See the amplifier’s manual for details.
Dolby Digital
Dolby Digital is a surround sound technology used in movie theaters that is now also available on equipment for a home environment. You can play back motion picture and live-concert DVD videos of this sound format by connecting the DVD Changer to a 6-channel amplifier equipped with a Dolby Digital decoder or Dolby Digital processor. If your amplifier (or separate decoder) supports Dolby Pro Logic Surround, you can even play back Dolby Pro Logic­encoded DVD movies with full 5.1-channel Dolby Digital soundtracks, as well as titles with the Dolby Surround mark.
• This functionality is only available when using DVD videos with Dolby Digital encoding.
• Make the following settings:
Setting Select: Page
Audio Out Select Bitstream 36
Recording system 29
• Select the Dolby Digital or Dolby Pro Logic Surround mode on your amplifier.
Connecting to an Amplifier Equipped with Dolby Pro Logic Surround
Your DPC-6.1 also supports Dolby Pro Logic Surround. This effect can be obtained in one of two ways: via a digital or an analog connection with an amplifier that supports Dolby Pro Logic Surround (see below).
Dolby Pro Logic Surround
Playback of Dolby Pro Logic Surround-encoded DVD videos requires that you connect the DPC-6.1 to an amplifier with right and left front speakers, a center speaker, and one or two surround speakers. Feel free to use one or two surround speakers. Be aware, though, that the output sound of the rear channel will be monaural even if you connect two surround speakers.
• If your amplifier is fitted with a digital input:
See the connection for Dolby Digital playback above and make the suggested settings. See also the amplifier’s manual for how to select its Dolby Pro Logic Surround mode.
• If your amplifier has no digital input:
Connect the DPC-6.1’s ANALOG OUTPUTs as shown in the illustration to the left, and make the following setting:
Setting Select: Page
Audio Out Select Analog 2ch 36
• Select the Dolby Pro Logic Surround mode on your amplifier.
Note:
Do not forget to select the DVD Changer’s AUDIO OUTPUTs (“Analog 2ch”). See “Audio Settings” on page 36 for details.

Warnings
• If you connect to the digital input of an amplifier that does not have a Dolby Digital decoder or DTS decoder, set the DPC-6.1’s “Audio Out Select” function to “PCM.” Any other setting may damage your ears or speakers when using high volume levels.
• During playback of DTS-encoded audio CDs, excessive noise may be output from the ANALOG OUTPUTs. To avoid possible damage to your audio system, we recommend you either break the connection between the DVD Changer’s ANALOG OUTPUTs and the amplifier, or to only start playback of your DPC-6.1 after selecting the appropriate digital input source on your amplifier.
• DTS Digital Surround™ playback is only available if you connect an external 5.1-channel DTS Digital Surround™ decoder to a DIGITAL OUTPUT jack of the DVD Changer.
Connecting to an Amplifier Equipped with a DTS Decoder
Playback of DTS-encoded discs requires that you establish a digital connection with the amplifier. The selection of the DPC-6.1’s DIGITAL OUTPUT depends on the type of digital input provided on your amplifier. Use either the DIGITAL OUTPUT COAXIAL or OPTICAL connector. See the amplifier’s manual for details.

Digital Theater System (DTS)
DTS is a high-quality surround technology used in movie theaters that is also available for home use on DVD videos or audio CDs. If you have a DTS decoder or processor, you can obtain the full benefit or 5.1-channel DTS encoded sound tracks.
• DTS functionality is only available when using DVD videos or audio CDs with DTS encoding.
• Make the following settings:
Setting Select: Page
Audio Out Select Bitstream 36

• Select the DTS mode on your amplifier.
Digital Stereo Audio Playback
The DPC-6.1 also allows you to output a stereo audio signal in the digital domain. The selection of the DPC-6.1’s DIGITAL OUTPUT depends on the type of digital input provided on your amplifier. Use either the DIGITAL OUTPUT COAXIAL or OPTICAL connector. See the amplifier’s manual for details.

PCM
If your amplifier provides a digital audio input, you can establish a digital connection between the DPC-6.1 and the amplifier. Choose this type of connection if your amplifier is equipped with a better D/ A converter than your DPC-6.1, or if you also own a dedicated D/A converter.
• Make the following setting:
Setting Select: Page
Audio Out Select PCM 36
Notes:
• NEVER connect a DIGITAL OUTPUT jack of the DVD Changer to the AC-3 RF input of a Dolby Digital Receiver. AC-3 RF inputs use a different encoding format that is not supported by the DPC-6.1’s DIGITAL OUTPUTs.
• The amplifier’s coaxial digital input may be labelled “DIGITAL” rather than “COAXIAL”. See its manual for details.

To obtain a higher picture quality
Occasionally, some picture distortion not usually visible during a normal telecast may appear on the TV screen during playback of a DVD video. This is due to the fact that DVD videos provide a higher resolution and therefore also more data to process. While the amount of noise depends on the TV you connect the DVD Changer to, reducing the sharpness setting on your TV when viewing DVD videos may alleviate the problem.

Your DPC-6.1 comes with a special 28-step memory that allows you to program the order in which the Titles and Chapters/tracks are to be played back. Such “sequences” can include material from several discs.

Programming Memory Sequences

The DPC-6.1’s Memory function allows you to program the order in which the material on one or several discs should be played back.
Note:
If you only want to select the next track for playback, using the Next Selection function is a lot faster. See page 24.

Title number (DVD videos only): if a subsequent step refers to another Chapter of the previously selected Title, only entering the Chapter number is enough.

The indication changes in 2-3 seconds.
CD PLAY
Press the CD PLAY button again to cancel CD Mode.
The RPT message disappears and the REPEAT indicator goes dark again to signal that the DVD Changer has returned to normal playback mode.
Notes:
• The CD PLAY button does not work while the DPC-6.1 is playing back a disc other than an audio CD. You first need to press the STOP button. Next, press the CD PLAY button to enter CD PLAY Mode. The DVD Changer starts playing back the audio CD in the disc drawer with the lowest number.
• Another way of selecting only audio tracks is to take advantage of the DPC-6.1’s Memory function. See “Pro­gramming Memory Sequences” on page 22 for details.

TV Shape
This is where you can specify the shape of your TV screen. This is important for determining whether you would like to see the whole picture, or a slightly bigger version.
4:3 Letterbox:
Select this setting if you own a standard 4:3 TV set and want to see the whole picture. In that case, masking bars are inserted above and below the picture.
4:3 Normal:
Select this setting for a standard 4:3 TV set if you want the picture to fill the entire screen. In that case, the left and right borders may fall outside the screen’s scope.
16:9 Widescreen:
Select this setting for a 16:9 wide-screen TV.
Notes:
• The picture size is preset on the DVD video. Therefore, the playback picture may not conform to the picture size you select.
• When you play DVD videos that only contain 4:3 picture size information, any other TV Shape setting you may select is ignored.
• If you select “16:9 Widescreen” while your TV set is equipped with a 4:3 screen, the picture will be horizontally distorted (compressed) during playback. Always set the TV Shape function according to the TV set your are using.

Audio Out Select
This function allows you to select the outputs and format for audio playback. Always select the setting that best matches your amplifier’s capabilities and input connec­tors. The “Bitstream” and “PCM” options refer to the DPC-6.1’s digital outputs. See also “Other Audio Play­back Options” on page 12.
Bitstream: Select this option if your amplifier is
equipped with a digital input (optical or coaxial) and a Dolby Digital, DTS, MPEG1, or MPEG2 decoder. The DPC-6.1 outputs digital audio information in the Bitstream format when you play back a DVD video with Dolby Digital, DTS, MPEG1, or MPEG2 encoding.
Analog 2Ch: Select this option if the DPC-6.1 is con-
nected to the audio inputs of your TV set, or an analog input pair of your external amplifier. Note that even this analog connection may allow you to take advan­tage of the amplifier’s Dolby Pro Logic processor.
PCM: Select this option if the DPC-6.1 is con-
nected to a digital input of your amplifier and if you would like the sound to be played back in stereo (e.g. for audio CDs). If you select “PCM”, the audio data of DVD videos with Dolby Digital, MPEG1, or MPEG2 encoding is automatically converted to 2­channel PCM, so that you lose the surround information. See also the table on page 29.
Dynamic Range Control
Dynamic Range Control allows you to “compress” the dynamic range of a DVD’s sound track, so that you can lower the volume without losing extremely soft signals. This is especially useful when you are watching a movie late at night.
Off: The full dynamic range is maintained. On: Low-level signals are slightly boosted so as to
remain audible at a low volume setting.
Notes:
• This function is only available during playback of Dolby Digital-encoded DVD videos.
• The degree of dynamic range reduction may differ depend­ing on the DVD video.
CD
DVD
Karaoke Vocal
DVD
DVD Karaoke discs sometimes also contain a vocal track you probably don’t need for Karaoke applications. That is why the DPC-6.1 allows you to switch the lead vocal off.
Off: The lead vocal track is muted. On: If available on the selected DVD Karaoke disc, the
lead vocal track is output.
Notes:
• The Karaoke Vocal feature is only available during playback of Dolby Digital-encoded (multi-channel) DVD Karaoke discs.
• For optimum Karaoke enjoyment, be sure to use appropriate audio equipment, such as an external amplifier.
Extended Audio Feature
Some DVD videos contain a special track that describes the on-screen actions for visually impaired persons. Your DPC-6.1 is set to automatically output this track if avail­able. If this is not necessary, switch this function off.
Off: The Extended Audio Feature track is muted. On: The Extended Audio Feature is active.

Screen Saver
The screen saver function protects your TV screen from burn-in of images that are displayed for too long. If you also work with a computer, you probably know how it works. The screen saver is especially useful if you often use the Pause (“still”) function and tend to forget to switch it off. See page 16.
Off: The screen saver will not blank out the screen
after the delay time has elapsed.
On: The screen saver will come on whenever neces-
sary.

Parental Lock
DVD videos equipped with the Parental Lock function allow you to decide what exactly can be viewed on your DPC-6.1, which is especially useful if you have children. For example: you could select a level where violent scenes unsuitable for children are skipped and replaced with more suitable scenes, or prevent play­back of a disc altogether. Whether the Parental Lock function actually works depends on the DVD video in question, because it needs to contain the software capable of responding to this function. Parental Lock is secured by means of a 4-digit code to avoid that your children bypass this function. Ask your dealer or rental service for details about the Parental Lock support of a given DVD video. Also note that the meaning of the Parental Lock levels depends on the country whose rating standards are used by the DVD video.
Off: The Parental Lock feature is not active. To select
the “Off” setting, perform steps 1 and 2 below.
On: Switching on Parental Lock involves specifying the
highest level that can be viewed. You cannot just switch this function on without selecting a level. Careful: if you only carry out steps 1 and 2, Parental Lock will be switched off. Be sure to perform steps 1 – 4 below.

It is now impossible to play back DVD videos rated higher than the selected level. For example, when you select level 7 (“Viewable”), discs rated higher than level 7 are locked out (“Locked”) and cannot be played back.
The Parental Lock level is equivalent to the following USA movie ratings:
Level 7: NC-17 Level 6: R Level 4: PG 13 Level 3: PG Level 1: G
The parental lock levels for “Canada” are included for future use. Since they are different from the US ratings, carefully check what they correspond to before buying new DVD videos with the Canadian Parental Lock system as they become available.
