Connecting Your TV or Projector

This section explains how to connect the DPC-7.7 to your TV or projector.
In this hookup example, the TV handles the audio and video. To enjoy Dolby Digital or DTS (5.1-channel surround),
you’ll need a compatible decoder (see page 19). The DPC-7.7 has three types of video output: component
video, S-Video, and composite video. Component video offers the best picture quality, so if your TV supports it, use a commercially available component video cable to con­nect the DPC-7.7’s COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT to the component video inputs on your TV. If your TV sup­ports progressive scanning, you must use component video in order to take advantage of that feature.

Connecting a Component with an HDMI Input

This section shows how to connect the DPC-7.7 to a AV receiver, HDTV, or projector that has an HDMI input socket.
What is HDMI?
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a new connection format that can carry uncompressed, stan­dard or high definition digital video and up to eight chan­nels of digital audio. Until now, several separate video and audio cables have been required to connect AV com­ponents together. With HDMI, a single cable is all that’s necessary to achieve the best picture and audio quality.
HDMI video is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface). To send HDMI video to a DVI input requires an HDMI-to-DVI cable. The DPC-7.7 supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), and for an HDMI-to-DVI connection to work, the other component must also support it. Note that this may not work with some DVI components.
Using HDMI
Use the HDMI cable to connect the DPC-7.7’s HDMI OUT to an HDMI input on your AV receiver. Alterna­tively, you can connect the DPC-7.7 directly to the HDMI input on your TV.

Tip: If you press the Play [ ] button, the disc tray will close and playback of the disc in the right bay will start auto­matically. If there is no disc in that bay, the DPC-7.7 will check the other bays and play the first disc it finds.
Notes:
•You can load up to six discs. You don’t have to load all six discs every time.
• When the disc tray is closed, all of the disc indicators appear until the DPC-7.7 has checked each bay for the presence of a disc. If a bay is found to have no disc, the corresponding indicator disappears.
• The disc tray can be opened and closed even while the DPC-7.7 is in Standby mode, so you don’t have to turn it on to load or remove your discs. (The disc tray may take several seconds to open.)
• The DPC-7.7 supports 8 cm and 12 cm discs. To avoid damaging your discs or DPC-7.7, always place discs in the center of the disc bays.
• Only load discs that are supported by the DPC-7.7 (see page 7). Don’t load cartridge-type discs.
•To avoid personal injury, keep your hands away from the disc tray as it closes.
•Always use the Open/Close [ ] button to open and close the disc tray. Never push the disc tray, and don’t touch it, or obstruct it while it’s opening or closing. Don’t press down on the disc tray while it’s open, and don’t load anything other than supported discs. Doing so may damage your discs or DPC-7.7.

•With the Last Memory function you can resume play­back from a specific point even if the disc has been removed (see page 42).
• Do not move the DPC-7.7 or subject it to vibration during playback. Doing so may damage your discs or DPC-7.7.
• Prolonged display of the same picture or menu may cause irreparable damage to your TV screen, known as screen burn-in. To prevent this, don’t keep playback paused for too long and always press the Stop [ ] but­ton when you’ve finished playing a DVD-Video disc. Your DPC-7.7 features a screen saver to protect your TV from the effects of burn-in (see page 48).
With some DVD-Video discs, you may experience pic­ture noise that is not normally visible with regular TV broadcasts. This is usually because DVD-Video discs uses a lot of high-resolution video data. The amount of noise, if any, will depend on your particular TV and the problem can sometimes be alleviated by turning down your TV’s sharpness control.

4:3 Pan & Scan: Choose this
option if you have a standard TV (4:3 aspect ratio) and want to use the full height of the screen when watching widescreen DVD-Video movies. In order to use the full height of the screen, the picture will be cropped on both sides, as shown. This option won’t work with discs that don’t support pan and scan.

16:9 Compressed:
this option if you have a widescreen TV (16:9 aspect ratio) and the picture appears stretched when watching pro­grams in 4:3 format. Some widescreen TVs have a setting to correct this. If your TV doesn’t, and 4:3 programs appear stretched, select this option to correct the problem.
Notes:
• This setting does not apply to DVD menus.
• When the HDMI OUT signal is at a resolution of 720p or 1080i, programs in 4:3 format will appear stretched, so we recommend that you select the 16:9 Com­pressed option.

Troubleshooting—Continued
Abnormal Behavior
The DPC-7.7 contains a microcomputer for signal processing and control functions. In very rare situations, severe interference, noise from an external source, or static electricity may cause it to lockup. In the unlikely even that this should happen, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait at least five seconds, and then plug it back in again. Alternatively, press and hold the Stop [ ] button until “RESET” appears on the display (about 10 seconds).
Restoring the Default Settings
To reset the DPC-7.7 to its factory defaults, turn it on, and when “INTEGRA” has disappeared from the display, while holding down the Stop [ ] button, press the [Standby/On] button. “INITIALIZE” appears on the display. When the reset is complete, “COMPLETE” is displayed, and the DPC-7.7 enters Standby mode.
HDMI Status Mode
If you’re using an HDMI connection and there’s no picture or sound, you can check the status of the HDMI connection by pressing and holding down the DPC-7.7’s [Display] button for 10 seconds until a message ID appears on the display.
