INTRODUCTION
2
This system was designed to provide you with many years of reliable operation with a minimum of care and maintenance. Every component in your system was in perfect working condition when it left our factory. If you experience any problems with the set-up or operation of this system, please review the Troubleshooting guide at the end of this manual before you contact your authorized JBL dealer.
Important Safety Information
Verify Line Voltage Before Use
Your CS3/CS5 has been designed for use with 220–240-volt AC current. Connection to a line voltage other than that for which it is intended can create a safety and fire hazard, and may damage the unit.
If you have any questions about the voltage requirements for your specific model, or about the line voltage in your area, contact your dealer before plugging the unit into a wall outlet.
Do Not Use Extension Cords
To avoid safety hazards, use only the power cord attached to your unit. We do not recommend that extension cords be used with this product. As with all electrical devices, do not run power cords under rugs or carpets or place heavy objects on them. Damaged power cords should be replaced immediately by an authorized service depot with a cord meeting factory specifications.
Handle the AC Power Cord Gently
When disconnecting the power cord from an AC outlet, always pull the plug, never pull the cord. If you do not intend to use the unit for any considerable length of time, disconnect the plug from the AC outlet.
Do Not Open the Cabinet
There are no user-serviceable components inside this product. Opening the cabinet may present a shock hazard, and any modifi­cation to the product will void your guarantee. If water or any metal object such as a paper clip, wire or a staple accidentally falls inside the unit, disconnect it from the AC power source immediate­ly, and consult an authorized service station.
Installation Location
To ensure proper operation and to avoid the potential for safety hazards, place the unit on a firm and level surface. When placing the unit on a shelf, be certain that the shelf and any mounting hardware can support the weight of the product.
Make certain that proper space is provided both above and below the unit for ventilation. If this product will be installed in a cabinet or other enclosed area, make certain that there is sufficient air movement within the cabinet. Under some circumstances a fan may be required.
Do not place the unit directly on a carpeted surface.
Avoid installation in extremely hot or cold locations, or an area
that is exposed to direct sunlight or heating equipment.
Avoid moist or humid locations.
Do not obstruct the ventilation slots on the top of the unit, or
place objects directly over them.
Cleaning
When the unit gets dirty, wipe it with a clean, soft, dry cloth. If necessary, wipe it with a soft cloth dampened with mild soapy water, then a fresh cloth with clean water. Wipe dry immediately with a dry cloth. NEVER use benzene, aerosol cleaners, thinner, alcohol or any other volatile cleaning agent. Do not use abrasive cleaners, as they may damage the finish of metal parts. Avoid spraying insecticide near the unit.
Moving the Unit
Before moving the unit, be certain to disconnect any interconnec­tion cords with other components, and make certain that you dis­connect the unit from the AC outlet.
Unpacking
The carton and shipping materials used to protect your new receiv­er during shipment were specially designed to cushion it from shock and vibration. We suggest that you save the carton and packing materials for use in shipping if you move, or should the unit ever need repair.
To minimize the size of the carton in storage, you may wish to flatten it. This is done by carefully slitting the tape seams on the bottom and collapsing the carton. Other cardboard inserts may be stored in the same manner. Packing materials that cannot be collapsed should be saved along with the carton in a plastic bag.
If you do not wish to save the packaging materials, please note that the carton and other sections of the shipping protection are recyclable. Please respect the environment and discard those materials at a local recycling center.
Copyright
Audio-visual material may consist of copyright works which must not be recorded without the permission of the owner of the copyright. Please refer to relevant laws covering copyright protection.
Copy Protection
This DVD player supports Macrovision copy protection. On DVD discs that include a copy protection code, if the contents of the DVD disc are copied using a VCR, the copy protection code prevents the videotape copy from playing normally.
For Optimal Performance
The receiver is a precision device that is constructed using extremely accurate technology. Soiling or friction affecting the pickup lens or disc drive can impair the image quality. In the worst case, neither video nor audio will be played back. To obtain optimal picture quality, the player should be checked (cleaning and replacement of some parts) every 1,000 hours. Note that this period varies, depending on the environment (temperature, humidity, dust) in which the player is used. Do not
attempt to clean the pickup lens yourself.

SAFETY INFORMATION
Since they share some of the characteristics and technology of CD players, many of the terms and operational concepts used in a DVD player are similar to what you may be familiar with from CD players and changers, or older video disc formats such as Laser Disc. How-ever, if this is your first DVD product, some of the terms used to describe the features of a DVD player may be unfamiliar. The fol­lowing explanations should solve some of the mysteries of DVD, and help you to enjoy all the power and flexibility of the DVD format and the DVD.
With the arrival of DVD, disc data capacity has increased dramati­cally. On a DVD Video disc most of this capacity is taken up by MPEG 2 video and the multichannel movie soundtrack in Dolby Digital and/or DTS. This information is compressed.
Aspect Ratio: This is a description of the width of a video image in relation to its height. A conventional video screen is four units wide for every three units of height, that’s why the ratio is called ”4:3.” Newer wide aspect ratio video displays are 16 units wide for every nine units of height, making them more like the screen in a movie theater. The program material on a DVD may be recorded in either format and, in addition, you may configure the DVD to play back in either format, depending on the features recorded on a disc.
High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI): HDMI has emerged as the digital standard for connecting high-definition devices, displays and components, and provides for the pristine transmission of high-definition digital video and digital audio via a single cable. HDMI is the first and only digital interface for consumer electronics devices that can carry uncompressed high­definition video, compressed or uncompressed multichannel audio and command data, allowing customers to obtain pure digital picture and sound directly from the source (as it was meant to be seen and heard).
USB On-the-Go: Due to its widespread acceptance, USB is becoming the de facto industry standard for connecting peripherals to PCs and laptops. Many of the new peripherals using USB are also portable devices.
As these portable devices increase in popularity, there is a growing need for them to communicate directly with each other when a PC is not available – for instance, in consumer electronics products. The USB On-the-Go technology addresses this need for mobile interconnectivity.
Title: For a DVD, a title is defined as an entire movie or program. There can be as many chapters within a title as the producers decide to include. Most discs include only one title, but some may have more than one, to give you a “Double Feature” presentation.
Chapter: DVD programs are divided into chapters and titles. Chapters are the subsections programmed into a single title on a disc, and may be compared to the individual tracks on an audio CD.
RGB Video: This is a new form of video signal that eliminates many of the artifacts of traditional composite video signals by splitting the signal into the three fundamental colors Red, Green and Blue (RGB). With an RGB connection (via SCART), you will see greater picture resolution and eliminate many picture imperfections such as the moiré patterns often seen on checkered patterned cloths. However, in order to benefit from RGB video, you must have a video display with an RGB compatible SCART input.
Progressive Scan: DVD offers progressive scan video outputs for use with compatible high-resolution televisions and projectors. Before DVD, no consumer medium could store, transmit or display video with full resolution. To conserve bandwidth, analog compres­sion (interlacing) is employed: first the odd-numbered lines of a frame are displayed, followed by the even-numbered lines. The result is that only half of the video image is drawn at one time; the viewer’s brain must reassemble the complete image. This is
acceptable, if the monitor is not too large and if there is not too much motion in the image. Large displays and fast-moving images reveal the limitations of this system. Thanks to DVD’s immense data capacity, images are now stored intact (progressively), so that all the lines in each frame (odd and even) are shown at the same time. But because most TVs cannot handle a progressive signal, conven­tional DVD players generate an interlaced output for compatibility. This JBL DVD player is among the select few DVD players with true progressive scan video output (NTSC and PAL) for use with compat­ible TVs and CRT projectors, and with all plasma, LCD and DLP display devices via the component video output. The result is 40% greater light output than a conventional TV and a stunningly detailed high-definition image, along with an almost complete absence of visible scanlines and motion artifacts. Of course, traditional Y/Pr/Pb component video, SCART, S-video and composite video outputs are included for use with conventional televisions and projectors.
Multiple-Angle: DVDs have the capability to show up to four differ­ent views of the same scene in a program. When a disc is encoded with multiple-angle information, pressing the Angle button will enable you to switch between these different views. Note that at present, few discs take advantage of this capability and, when they do, the multiple-angle technology may only be present for short periods of time within the disc. Producers will usually insert some sort of icon or graphic in the picture to alert you to the availability of multiple viewing angles.
Reading: This is a message that you will see after you´ve loaded the disc and the tray has closed. It refers to the fact that the player must first examine the contents of the disc to see if it is a CD or DVD, and then extract the information about the type of material on the disc, such as languages, aspect ratios, subtitles, number of titles and more. The slight delay while the contents of the disc are read is normal.
Resume: The operation of the Stop button on the DVD works differ­ently
from what you are used to on CD players. On a traditional CD player, when you press the Stop button, the unit does just that – it stops playback. On a CD player, when you press the start button again, the disc starts from the beginning. With the DVD, however, you have two options when playing DVD discs. Pressing Stop once will stop playback, but it actually puts the unit in the Resume mode. This means that you can turn the machine off and, when you press play the next time, the disc will resume or continue from the point on the disc where the Stop button was pressed. This is helpful if you are watching a movie and must interrupt your viewing session but wish to pick up where you left off. Pressing the Stop button twice will stop the machine in a traditional manner and, when the disc is played again, it will start from the beginning.
In resume mode, the cover of the DVD will be displayed, if available. Otherwise, the JBL screen will appear.
DivX: DivX is the name of a revolutionary new video codec which is based on the MPEG-4 compression standard for video. This DVD player
will playback discs created with DivX software. The DVD player’s playback functionalities of DivX video discs will vary depending on the DivX software version used for creating your movies. For more information about the different software versions of DivX, please go to www.divx.com

• Playback capability for CD-R, CD-RW, WMA, JPEG, MP3, DivX, VCD/SVCD, DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-RW and DVD+RW discs may vary due to variations in the quality of the disc and the recorder used to create the disc.
• The CS3/CS5 is compatible with most discs recorded with files encoded using MP3 or Windows Media
®
9, as well as JPEG still images. However, note that variations in the encoder or codec used and the bit rate of the encoding may affect the CS’s ability to play back a specific disc. As a result, we cannot guarantee complete compatibility with all encoders and versions of the codecs. For best results, we recommend that MP3 files be encoded at bit rates ranging between 32kbps and 320kbps. WMA files should be encoded at bit rates between 64kbps and 320kbps. Although the CS system is capable of playing some WMA 9 files, not all features of version 9 are supported. JPEG files should contain no more than 5 megapixels, and the file size should be no larger than 5Mb.

About This Manual
• The types of functions and operations that can be used for a par­ticular disc vary depending on the features of that disc. In some cases, these functions and operations may differ from the descriptions given in this manual. In this event, follow the instruc­tions given on the screen. This manual only covers basic disc operations.
• For some operations, the
Ø
icon may appear on the screen. This indicates that the operation described in this manual is not available on the disc in the player.
• On-screen and front-panel display illustrations in this manual are purely for the purposes of explanation. The actual displays may differ slightly from these illustrations.
Disc Handling Precautions
• To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its edge. Do not touch the surface.
• Do not stick paper or tape on the disc. If there is glue (or a similar substance) on the disc, remove the glue completely before using the disc.
• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources such as hot air ducts, or leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight as there can be a considerable rise in temperature inside the car.
• After playing, store the disc in its case.
• Do not write on the label side with a ballpoint pen or other writing utensils.
• Be careful not to drop or bend the disc.
Disc Cleaning Precautions
• Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the center out.

English
BASIC INFORMATION
After unpacking the unit, and placing it on a solid surface capable of supporting its weight, you will need to make the connections to your audio and video equipment.
Audio Equipment Connections
We recommend that you use high-quality interconnect cables when making connections to source equipment and recorders to preserve the integrity of the signals.
When making connections to audio source equipment or speakers, it is always a good practice to unplug the unit from the AC wall outlet. This prevents any possibility of accidentally sending audio or transient signals to the speakers that may damage them.
1. Connect the front, center and surround speaker outputs
BCD
to
the respective speakers.
Cables that are run inside walls should have the appropriate markings to indicate listing with any appropriate testing agency standards. Questions about running cables inside walls should be referred to your installer or a licensed electrician who is familiar with the applicable local building codes in your area.
When connecting wires to the speakers, be certain to observe proper polarity. Note that the positive (+) terminal of each speaker connection now carries a specific color code. However, most speakers will still use a red terminal for the postive (+) connection. Connect the “negative” or “black” wire to the same terminal on both the receiver and the speaker.
We also recommend that the length of cable used to connect speaker pairs be identical. For example, use the same length piece of cable to connect the front-left and front-right or surround-left and surround-right speakers, even if the speakers are a different distance from the CS receiver.
2. Connections to the subwoofer are made via a line-level audio connection from the Subwoofer Output
7
to the line-level SUB
input (purple) of the subwoofer. Connect at the same time the
Subwoofer Trigger Output
F
to the Trigger Input of the sub-
woofer.
3. Connect the supplied FM antenna to the FM (75-Ohm)
5
connection. The FM antenna may be an external roof antenna, an inside powered or wire lead antenna or a connection from a cable system. Note that if the antenna or connection uses 300-ohm twin-lead cable, you should use a 300-ohm-to-75-ohm adapter to make the connection.
Video Equipment Connections
Video equipment is connected in the same manner as audio components. Again, the use of high-quality interconnect cables is recommended to preserve signal quality.
Connecting the TV and Optional Components NOTE:
To be able to listen to the sound of a live TV show through the loudspeakers of your CS system you need a connection between the audio output of your TV and the CS receiver. To achieve this when using the supplied SCART cable, you don’t need to connect any additional wires – the SCART cable transports audio and video signals in both directions. But when using the HDMI, component, S-video or composite jacks you need to connect the audio output of your TV set with the TV Audio In K on the back of your CS
receiver
. If your TV has a digital audio output, it is recommended that you use that one, rather than the analog audio output. Connect the digital output of your TV to the Digital In 89 on the back of your CS receiver.
HDMI Connection
If your TV set is equipped with an HDMI input, we suggest you use the HDMI connection to connect your CS system and your TV. It will allow you to watch your DVDs in the best possible picture quality. Most LCD, plasma and video projectors have such an HDMI input nowadays. Connect the HDMI Output H to the HDMI input of your video device.
The HDMI wire does not transport audio signals from the TV to the CS, so you need an additional audio connection (see note above).
If your TV set does not have an HDMI input, please follow one of the steps below to connect it to your CS system or other video compo­nents.
TV Connection (Method 1) – Using SCART Cable (Included) To view the video from DVD discs on your TV set, connect the SCART TV Out Jack 3 of the CS system to the SCART In jack of your TV set.
The audio connection runs through the same cable (see note above).
TV Connection (Method 2) – Using S-Video Cable (Not Included)
If your TV set has an S-video input jack, you can connect your TV to the S-Video Out Jack 1 on the back of the CS receiver. S-video wires don’t transport audio signals, so you need an additional audio con­nection (see note above).
TV Connection (Method 3) – Using Composite Video (Cable Not Included)
If your TV set has neither S-video nor SCART input jacks, connect the Video Out Jack
0
of the CS to the Video In jack of your TV set. The composite wire also doesn’t transport audio signals, so you need to make additional connections (see earlier note).
Component Video Connection (Method 4)
If the video display has component video inputs, connect the
Component Video Outputs
2
on the CS3/CS5 to the corresponding input jacks on your television. If you are using a progressive scan television or projector, you must also change the Scan Type in the DVD player’s Video Setup menu from ”Interlaced” to ”Progressive.”

INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS
Connecting VCR and Sat Decoder (Methods 5 and 6)
The diagram below shows possible connection methods for common system configurations. These are intended as guidelines only. Due to differences in equipment specifications, the method of connection for your equipment may be different from that shown. Please consult the owner’s manual for your equipment for further guidance.
Connecting Set-Top Box or Digital Satellite Receiver (Method 7) – Using Coaxial Digital Cable
To listen to the digital multichannel signal or downmix from set-top boxes or digital satellite receivers, connect the Coaxial Digital Out of your device to the Coaxial Digital In
8
on the CS receiver.
Optional Audio Connections
Aux Input for External Source
You may connect a line-level stereo analog audio source such as a Sat receiver, tape deck, phono preamp of a record player, etc., to the receiver’s rear-panel Audio In Input
6
sockets to enjoy the
benefits of your CS system with other source components.
• VCR Connection-Audio (cables not Included): To listen to the sound from your stereo VCR through the speakers of this system, connect the Left/Right audio output jacks of your stereo VCR to the Left/Right audio input jacks Audio In
6
of this system.
Aux Output for Recording
To record the sound of the CS system with your VCR or any audio recording device (tape deck, MD, CDR and some others), the Audio
Out Jacks
A
should be connected to the analog Record In jacks of the appropriate device. They can also be connected to any audio input on your TV to listen to the sound of your CS receiver through the speakers of your TV only, when the amp in your subwoofer is turned off and the volume of the CS receiver has been turned down completely. If the speakers of your CS system are active, the volume on your TV should be turned down.
Digital In- and Outputs
Connect the digital output of any digital sources such as an optional CD or DVD changer or player, advanced video game, a digital satellite receiver, HDTV tuner or digital cable set-top box or the output of a compatible computer sound card to the Optical and
Coaxial Digital Inputs
89
.
Connect the Coaxial Digital Output
E
on the rear panel of the CS to
the matching digital input connections on a CD-R or MiniDisc recorder.
Note (When Connecting the Optical Digital Audio Cable – Optional):
Gently push the cable plug through the built-in shutter that covers the optical digital audio output and connect the cable firmly so that the configurations of both the cable and the connector match.
Speaker Placement
The placement of speakers in a multichannel home theater system can have a noticeable impact on the quality of sound reproduced.
Depending on your viewing device, place the center speaker either directly above or below your TV, or in the center behind a perforated front-projection screen.
Once the center channel speaker is installed, position the left-front and right-front speakers so that they are as far away from one another
as the center channel speaker is from the preferred listening position. Ideally, the front-channel speakers should be placed so that their tweeters are no more than 60cm above or below the tweeter in the center channel speaker.
Depending on the specifics of your room acoustics, you may find that imaging is improved by moving the front-left and front-right speakers slightly forward of the center channel speaker. If possi­ble, adjust all front loudspeakers so that they are aimed at ear height when you are seated in the listening position.
Using these guidelines, you’ll find that it takes some experimenta­tion to find the correct location for the front speakers in your particular installation. Don’t be afraid to move things around until the system sounds correct. Optimize your speakers so that audio transitions across the front of the room sound smooth.
When the CS is used in 5.1-channel operation, the preferred location for surround speakers is on the side walls of the room, at or slightly behind the listening position.
15
English
INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS
A) Front channel speaker installation with direct-view TV sets or rear-screen projectors
B) The distance between the left and right speakers should be equal to the distance from the seating position to the viewing screen. You may also experiment with placing the left and right speakers slightly forward of the center speaker. Rear speaker mounting is an alternate location for 5.1 systems.
Rear surround speakers may also be used in 5.1-channel mode as an alternative mounting position when it is not practical to place the main surround speakers at the sides of the room. Speakers may be placed on a rear wall, behind the listening position. As with the side speakers, the center of the rear surrounds should face you. The speakers should be no more than 2 meters behind the rear of the seating area.
Subwoofers produce largely nondirectional sound, so they may be placed almost anywhere in a room. Actual placement should be based on room size. One method of finding the optimal location for a subwoofer is to begin by placing it in the front of the room, about 15cm from a wall, or near the front corner of the room. Another method is to temporarily place the subwoofer in the spot where you will normally sit, and then walk around the room until you find a spot where the subwoofer sounds best. Place the subwoofer in that spot.
Connecting the AC Power
NOTES:
• The Power Requirement is: AC 230V, 50Hz.
• Connecting to power other than the one listed above may damage the system or cause abnormal operation.
• Before connecting the AC power cord of this system to a wall outlet, connect the speakers and other component cables to the system.
• Connect the AC power cord of the active subwoofer.
• Connect the AC power cords of your TV and any optional components to a wall outlet.
Once the speakers have been placed in the room and connected, the remaining steps are to program the system configuration mem­ories.
First Turn-On
You are now ready to power up the CS3/CS5 receiver to begin final adjustments.
1. Plug the Power Cable
4
into an unswitched AC outlet. Note that
the Power Indicator

Surround Modes
One of the most important features of the CS3/CS5 receiver is its ability to reproduce a full multichannel surround sound field from digital sources, analog Matrix surround-encoded programs and standard Stereo programs.
Selection of a surround mode is based on personal taste, as well as the type of program source material being used. For example, motion pictures, CDs or TV programs bearing the logo of one of the major surround-encoding processes (such as Dolby Surround) should be played in either the Dolby Pro Logic II Movie (with movies) or Music (with music) surround mode.
Surround modes and audio formats are selected using the remote. Press the Audio Button

INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS
System Defaults
The final step of the installation is to establish the system’s defaults. It is helpful to take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with these settings, as they may require change before the first use and later from time to time.
General Functionality of the OSD Menu
The complete setup and control of the CS3/CS5 takes place in an advanced user-guided on-screen display (OSD) menu system. The OSD can be activated by pressing the OSD
8
button on the
remote control. Pressing this button again de-activates the OSD.
The main menu consists of a Player menu, Radio menu, TV menu, AUX menu, Digital menu, USB menu and Setup menu. The Player menu will show all information and options available for the disc currently playing. The Radio menu will show radio and RDS options. The TV, AUX and Digital menus show the surround options for these specific audio inputs. The USB menu will show all information and options available when USB thumb devices or portable hard disks are connected. The Setup menu will help you configure all audio and video settings which are normally only made once.
Depending on how your CS system is connected to your TV set, two different on-screen displays are available. When the CS is connect­ed via any of the standard definition connections (SCART, S-video, composite video or standard component video), the OSD will be icon-based. When the CS is connected via any of the high-defini­tion connections (HDMI or high-definition component video), the OSD will be text-based. In the next chapters, we will show both the standard-definition version and the high-definition version, to make the initial setup as easy as possible.
Many menus contain submenus or text lines. These submenus are shown as icons on the left side of the menu, depending on whether you are watching the standard-definition OSD or high-definition OSD. They can be highlighted by a white square around the icon or text by moving the cursor with the Arrow
9
buttons. Icons or text
can be activated by pressing Enter
6
when they are highlighted.
When Enter
6
has been pressed, the color of the icon or the circle behind the text will change to dark blue and you will see that the current settings of this submenu will appear on the right side of the menu. Although some menus have various submenus and settings, they are all navigated in the same way. All submenus, set­tings and options can be accessed with the help of the Arrow
9
and Enter6buttons on the remote control.
To change a setting, simply move the cursor to the setting you wish to change. This setting will be highlighted in a white square, and a brief explanation will appear in the Upper Menu Line on the bottom of your screen, together with the available options for this setting on the Lower Menu Line.
Once the setting is highlighted, pressing Enter
6
will show an
M

Setup Menu
The first step in checking or changing the system defaults is to access the Setup menu. First, make certain that the CS receiver is properly connected to a video display, and that power is connected. For this process, however, you do not need to load a disc into the unit.
During Stop, Pause or Play mode, if you press OSD on the remote, the Main menu appears on the screen.
This Main menu and all menus in the following section may look different, listing the settings with different languages, depending on the settings made previously. With the factory default setting, all languages are set to ”English”; that’s why with all menus, the English version is shown in the manual.

SYSTEM SETUP
The System Setting submenu contains the following settings. Follow the explanations in the Upper Menu Line on the bottom of your screen to change the settings.
Display Language: Sets the language in which the OSD menus are shown on your screen.
Preferred Subtitle Language: Defines your preferred subtitle language. Every time a disc contains this subtitle language, it will be shown automatically. If you do not find your preferred language in the list of options, you can select your preferred language by selecting
OTHER, and than typing a 4-digit code found in the code
list on page 31. You can also set the preferred subtitle language to
OFF. In that case no subtitles will be shown.
Panel Time-Out: Sets the time-out interval for the Front-Panel Information Display. After the selected time, the display will dim completely.
Status Bar Time-Out: Sets the time-out interval for the Status Bar, after which the Status Bar will disappear from the screen.
Parental Control: Defines a password used to control viewing of restricted programs. The default password is 8888. After pressing the default password, either the parental control setting can be chosen, or a new password. The five standard US rating symbols are ”G” (General, level 1), ”PG” (Parental Guidance, level 3), ”PG13” (Parental Guidance and 13 years old, level 4), ”R” (Restricted, level 6) and ”NC 17” (from 17 years old, level 7). The DVD will accommodate a total of eight rating steps, as set by the DVD creators. These additional steps allow for more critical control of program playback for all audiences. Level 8: All DVDs can be played. Levels 7 to 2: DVDs for general audiences/children can be played. Level 1: DVDs for children can be played; DVDs for adults/general audiences are prohibited. Follow the explanations on the screen to set a new password.
Disc Recognition: When set to on, the next time a disc is inserted, the CS will show a “Disc Recognized” message, with the question if you would like to play the disc from the beginning or would like to resume from where you last stopped the disc. The memory can contain information of the last 100 discs played.
PBC Support: Activates PBC (Play Back Control) Support for VCD discs.
Screen Saver: Activates a screen saver to prevent image “burn” in a video display device. If you connect the CS receiver to a plasma screen or video projector, we recommend you activate the screen saver at all times.
Show Angle Icon: Determines whether the Angle Icon will appear on the screen when there are different angles available on a DVD disc.
Audio Settings
The Audio Setting submenu contains the following settings. Follow the explanations in the Upper Menu Line on the bottom of your screen to change the settings.
Preferred Audio Language: Defines your preferred audio language. Every time a disc is played that contains this audio language, it will be activated automatically. If you do not find your preferred language in the list of options, you can select your preferred language by selecting OTHER, and than typing a four-digit code found in the code list on page 31.
Dynamic Range: This setting allows you to take advantage of the programming present on some Dolby Digital recordings to reduce the volume of louder passages while maintaining intelligibility of quieter passages. This means that you may listen to programs at a level that allows the full impact of a soundtrack to be heard at a volume that is lower than you might otherwise use to avoid disturbing others. The CS3/CS5 accomplishes this by compressing the audio to a greater or lesser degree, depending on which setting you choose. Three options are available:
MINIMUM does not make any changes to the original playback,
and should be used when the volume setting in the listening room may be as loud as you desire.
MEDIUM applies a moderate amount of compression so that
louder passages are a little bit quieter.
MAXIMUM applies more compression so that louder passages
are much softer.
Feel free to experiment with the settings at any time.
Delay Unit: This setting sets the measuring unit for Delay in either Feet or Meter.
Tone Control: Activates or deactivates the Bass and Treble settings. Once either the Bass or Treble settings are changed, the Tone Control automatically switches to
ON.
Bass Level: Sets the level of low frequencies.
Treble Level: Sets the level of high frequencies.
DVD Sound Mode: Sets the audio format of the DVD-disc playing
(for other sources, see Surround Mode in each respective chapter). Once set to Stereo, every surround format on a DVD will be con­verted to a pure stereo signal. Once set to DPLII, all stereo signals on a DVD are forced into 5.1, leaving all multichannel signals in their original format. This setting is recommended. The original will follow the surround format on the disc.

SYSTEM SETUP
Audio Adjustment
The Audio Adjustment submenu contains the access to the speaker delay and the output level adjustment settings of the CS3/CS5. Follow the explanations in the Upper Menu Line on the bottom of your screen to make adjustments.
Delay
Due to the different distances between the listening position for the front channel speakers and the surround speakers, the amount of time it takes for sound to reach your ears from the front or sur­round speakers is different. You may compensate for this difference through the use of the delay settings to adjust the timing for the specific speaker placement and acoustic conditions in your listen­ing room or home theater.
Measure the distance from the listening position to each of the individual loudspeakers. Once done, select per loudspeaker the distance that is closest to the one measured.
Output Level Adjustment
Output level adjustment is a key part of the configuration process for any surround sound product.
NOTE: Listeners are often confused about the operation of the sur­round channels. While some assume that sound should always be coming from each speaker, most of the time there will be little or no sound in the surround channels. This is because they are only used when a movie director or sound mixer specifically places sound there to create ambiance, a special effect or to continue action from the front of the room to the rear. When the output levels are properly set it is normal for surround speakers to operate only occasionally. Artificially increasing the volume to the rear speakers may destroy the illusion of an enveloping sound field that dupli­cates the way you hear sound in a movie theater or concert hall.
The default settings of the DVD player is 0dB for all channels. In case you feel adjustments are necessary in your setup, we advise you to make the adjustments using the internal test tone generator.
Once the cursor is moved to any of the speaker level icons, the test noise will be heard from the corresponding speaker. If this is not the case please check whether the loudspeaker is connected to the correct loudspeaker output on the rear panel. The speaker level can be adjusted by pressing Enter 6 and selecting an appropriate level indicated in the Lower Menu Line. The test noise will stop as soon as the cursor is moved away from any speaker level icon.
Video Settings
The Video Setting submenu contains the following settings. Follow the explanations in the Upper Menu Line on the bottom of your screen to change the settings.
Aspect Ratio: This step selects the TV aspect ratio, conventional screen shape (4:3) or widescreen (16:9), according to your TV. If you have a conventional 4:3 TV that can (automatically) switch to show a 16:9 format, you should select 16:9 rather than 4:3.
TV Standard: Sets the output video format (i.e., NTSC or PAL), of the CS receiver. If you have a multistandard TV, we recommend the
AUTO setting for optimal picture quality.
Scan Type: Sets the component video output to Interlace or Progressive. Before changing the setting to Progressive, make sure that your video display connected to the component output is capa­ble of handling progressive scan signals. As soon as you select progressive scan the scan type, the video output will automatically change to component. All other outputs, composite video on cinch, SCART and S-video, will be kept interlaced. The interlaced composite and S-video outputs remain active for connection to a second (interlaced) video display.
Video Output: Sets the video output type to SCART or component. SCART will be used for most TVs. Component will be used for most LCD, plasma and projectors.
SCART Output: Selects which kind of video output signals will be routed over the scart. RGB will be used for most TV’s as it provides the best picture quality.
Video Mode: This setting affects only the Component Video Outputs, and it controls how the video signals are optimized for progressive scan display. In most cases, the “automatic” mode is your best choice, as it senses whether the disc being played was originally recorded on video or shot on film. However, in some cases you may wish to compensate for errors in the disc authoring that occur when the frame rate is not properly maintained when films are converted to video. Three choices are available:
• Auto: This is the recommended setting, as it lets the CS system analyze the signals from the DVD and adjust the output accordingly.
• Movie: Choose this option for optimal playback of material that was shot on film, even though you are viewing it on video via a DVD.
20
SYSTEM SETUP
• Video: Choose this option for optimal playback of material that was shot directly to video (e.g., concerts and sports programming).
Video Resolution: Selects the resolution of the video output. When the CS system is connected to either one of the composite, S-video or SCART connectors, this setting should be left in Standard.
When you connect your CS system via a digital HDMI or component video connection, the preferred setting is either 720p (progressive scan with 720 lines) or 1080i (interlaced with 1080 lines).
If you select any of the 720p or 1080i high-resolution formats, all analog video outputs (composite, S-video and SCART) will become temporarily inactive.
In order to watch low-resolution formats again, press the Video
Output
button on the remote control.
Please note that with component video, nonencrypted movies will be upscaled to 720p. Encrypted movies will not play in 720p and will have to played back on standard progressive scan component or HDMI.
Video Adjustment
The Video Adjustment submenu contains access to the Test Screen. First adjust the video display device (TV) with the help of the Test Screen. After that the output settings of the player can be fine-tuned with the Color, Contrast, Brightness, Tint and Black Level settings. In order to change the settings, move the cursor to the “+“ or “–“ icon on the same line as the setting. Once one of the icons is highlighted, pressing Enter 6 will increase or decrease the value of the setting, as will be shown in the bar behind the setting. To exit the Video Adjustment menu, move the cursor to DONE, and press
Enter 6.

SYSTEM SETUP
When you activate the Test Screen via the OSD you can activate a still image to test all settings and the video performance of your TV. With the vertical color bars you can test the following:
• Proper color intensity setting on your TV.
• The proper color of each bar, showing if the proper video stan­dard is turned on: the colors should be (left to right): black, white, yellow, cyan (turquoise), green, magenta (purple), red, blue, black.
• Proper color transition, seen as sharp separation of the bars; S-video will be better than “Video,” RGB best of all.
• The performance of the color filter in your TV (with ”Video” signals), bar edges should show no vertical crawling dots. Here, S-video and RGB formats usually give no problems.
With the gray scale and the black/white fields below the color bars, the brightness and contrast of your screen can be adjusted optimally; see chapter ”TV Picture Adjustment” below.
TV Picture Adjustment With Test Screen
These adjustments may be done now, but you can also make them after setup has been finalized.
Brightness Adjustment
1. Turn down the color control on your TV until the color bars are
visible in black and white.
2. Adjust the contrast to the lowest level where you still can see all
bars within the gray scale in the test picture separately and clearly.
3. Adjust the brightness so that the bars in the gray scale are all
visible. The bar furthest to the left has to be as black as possible rather than gray but the next must clearly be differentiated. All the bars in the gray scale have to be gradually and evenly changing from black to whiter, going from left to right.
Contrast Adjustment
1. Adjust the contrast on your TV until you see a bright white bar in
the lower right corner of the screen and a deep dark black bar on the left. The optimal contrast setting will depend on your preference and the surrounding light in the TV room.
2. If the brightness of the white bar stops increasing while turning
up the contrast or when the borders of the white ”JBL” text letters on top bloom (overlight) into the black areas, drastically decreasing the sharpness of the script, then the contrast has been turned up too much. Reduce the contrast until these effects disappear and the video still looks realistic.
3. If you are watching TV with ordinary surrounding daylight, adjust
the contrast so that a typical video picture has about the same look as the surroundings in your room. That way, the eye is relaxed when watching the TV picture. This contrast setting may be reduced when the surrounding light is dimmed, usually improving the sharpness of a video considerably.
4. The gray scale in the middle line needs to have the same clear difference between each bar as before the contrast adjustment. If not, go back to the brightness adjustment and repeat Step 3, and then the contrast adjustments, making only minor adjustments each time for optimization.
Color Adjustment
1. When the brightness and the contrast are set optimally, turn up the color control to the level of your preference. Adjust to the level where the colors look strong but still natural, not overdone. If the color level is too high, depending from the TV used, some of the bars will seem wider or the color intensity will not increase while the control is turned up. Then the color control must be reduced again. At the end, you should test the color intensity also with a video – e.g., pictures of natural faces, flowers, fruit and vegetables and other familiar, natural objects most useful for an optimal setting of the color intensity.
2. If your TV has a Tint option (with most European TVs this is avail­able or effective only with NTSC signals, not with PAL), use the large white bar below the gray scale to tweak the warmth of the picture. Every viewer has a different preference as to how the glow of the picture should be. Some prefer a little colder picture, some a warmer glow. The Tint function on your TV and the white bar can be used to control this. Adjust the Tint to the level at which you feel the white color has the tone you prefer.
Sharpness Adjustment
Contrary to intuition, the picture will appear sharper and clearer with the sharpness, or Edges, setting backed off from the maximum setting. Reduce the sharpness setting on your television, and the Edges setting on the CS3/CS5 video adjustments menu, if neces­sary, to minimize the appearance of any white lines between the bars in the gray scale portion of the test screen.
Convergence and Edge Focus
The crosshatch pattern that surrounds the test screen may be used to evaluate edge focus and convergence in front- or rear-projection video displays. However, the controls used to adjust these parameters are often not user-accessible.
In any event, these adjustments are extremely complex, and require proper training and experience to avoid worsening the situation. Therefore, it is recommended that if you are unable to improve the picture using the available controls, contact the video display manufacturer’s authorized service representative for assistance.

CS systems are among the first to allow direct playback of compatible files from portable USB devices. Two USB On-the-Go inputs are available, one on the right side of the product and one on the rear panel.
Connect your USB thumb drive or portable hard disk to either of the side or rear-panel USB Inputs
3G
. If you have more than two devices that you would like to connect at the same time, you can use a standard USB-hub with an external power supply, to which you can connect up to 16 portable USB devices.
1. Press the USB 1 or USB 2
0
buttons on the remote control to turn the DVD receiver on. Also make sure that your video monitor connected to the CS3/CS5 is switched on.
2. The TV monitor will show the below screen, allowing you to select which of the file types available on the device you would like to display and play. Showing different file types at the same time (such as MP3 and JPEG) is possible.
3. Move the cursor to the buttons on the lower left side of the screen, and press Enter
6
to select or deselect the requested
file types.
In case several USB devices are connected, all will be shown in the same USB menu. To differentiate the drives, they will be shown as 1 and 2. USB drives can have more than one partition. If that is the case, the different partitions will be shown as 1a, 1b, 1c etc.
The USB menu contains the following settings or indications. Follow the explanations in the Upper Menu Line on the bottom of your screen to change the settings.
Disc: Shows the type of the disc.
Audio: Shows the audio track that is currently playing. Options are
shown on both menu lines on the bottom of the screen.
Playlist: Sets the order in which the current disc is played back.
Repeat: Sets the repeat mode. (Repeat 1, Repeat Folder).
Random: Activates Random Playback when possible.
Picture: Selects the interval between the current picture on the
screen and the next one.
In the USB menu, the chapter, track or picture currently playing will be marked with an arrow symbol in front of the Track (MP3, WMA) or Picture (JPEG). Tracks and pictures can be selected from this list at any time by moving the cursor to the desired track or file and pressing Enter
6
to confirm.
The top part of this screen can be deactivated to show the com­plete Track list on the screen. To deactivate, move the cursor to the upper INFO (or i INFO) submenu on the left side of the screen. Press Enter

until the icon is highlighted in light blue and the full Track list is visible on the screen. In the same way the Disc list can be removed from the screen by deactivating the Program submenu.
When the CS3/CS5 is in Play mode, pressing the Play G button on the remote control will highlight the track being played.
If you have a USB device that contains both music files (MP3, WMA) and JPEG images, you can choose to run these simultane­ously, mixing the MP3 or WMA audio with your own images. The time interval can be chosen in the Picture Setting.
With such devices, you can also either listen to the MP3 or WMA audio or watch the JPEG video files only. In order to do so, click in Stop mode on the Music, Picture or Movie icons on the left part of the screen to select or deselect the desired format.
NOTE: The CS3/CS5 will not play back any of the formats SVCD/VCD, MPEG1 (Video), MPEG2 (Video) and audio CD tracks (CDDA) stored on an external USB hard drive.
• You will need a FAT32 preformatted external hard disk drive with
USB connector. If your disk is formatted with another file system (such as NTFS), you will need to reformat it. Please contact your hard disk supplier for more information.
• We recommend creating folders and sort the files by file type
(movies, pictures or music). This will allow you to quickly find the file you’re looking for.

Bit Rate
Value indicating the amount of video data compressed in a DVD per second. The unit is Mbps (megabits per second). 1 Mbps indicates that the data per second is 1,000,000 bits. The higher the bit rate, the larger the amount of data. However, this does not always mean higher quality pictures.
Chapter
Sections of a picture or a music piece on a DVD that are smaller than titles. Many titles are composed of several chapters, but many others are not. Each chapter is assigned a chapter number enabling you to locate the chapter you want.
Dolby Digital (“5.1,” “AC-3
®
”)
This sound format for movie theaters is more advanced than Dolby Pro Logic Surround. In this format, the rear speakers output stereo sound with an expanded frequency range and a subwoofer channel for deep bass is independently provided. This format is also called “5.1” because the subwoofer channel is counted as the 0.1 channel (since it functions only when a deep bass effect is needed). All six channels in this format are recorded separately for superior chan­nel separation. Furthermore, since all the signals are processed digitally, less signal degradation occurs. The name “AC-3” comes from the fact that it is the third audio coding method to be devel­oped by the Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation.

Dolby Pro Logic II Surround
This is a method of decoding stereo or surround recordings that produces five channels from 2-channel sound. Compared with the former Dolby Surround system, Dolby Pro Logic II Surround reproduces left-to-right panning more naturally and localizes sounds more precisely. To take full advantage of Dolby Pro Logic II Surround, you should have a pair of rear speakers and a center speaker. The rear speakers output stereo sound.
DTS
Digital audio compression technology developed by DTS, Inc. This technology conforms to 5.1-channel surround. The rear channels are stereo and there is a discrete subwoofer channel in this format. DTS provides 5.1 discrete channels of high-quality digital audio. Good channel separation is realized, because all channels are recorded discretely and processed digitally.
Manufactured under license from DTS, Inc. U.S. Patent No. 5,451,942 and other worldwide patents issued and pending. “DTS” and “DTS Digital Surround” are trademarks of DTS, Inc. © 1996 DTS, Inc. All rights reserved.
MPEG Audio
International standard coding system to compress audio digital signals authorized by ISO/IEC. MPEG 1 conforms to up to 2-channel stereo, used on some DVDs as alternate (other language) track.
DVD
A disc that contains up to eight hours of moving pictures even though its diameter is the same as a CD. The data capacity of a single-layer and single-sided DVD, at 4.7GB (gigabyte), is 7 times that of a CD. Furthermore, the data capacity of a dual-layer and single-sided DVD is 8.5GB, a single-layer and double-sided DVD
9.4GB, and a dual-layer and double-sided DVD 17GB. The picture data uses the MPEG 2 format, one of the worldwide standards of digital compression technology. The picture data is compressed to about 1/40 of its original size.
The DVD also uses the variable rate coding technology that changes the data to be allocated according to the status of the pic­ture. The audio data is recorded in Dolby Digital, DTS and/or PCM, allowing you to enjoy more natural audio presence. Furthermore, various advanced functions such as multi-angle, multilingual, and subtitles may be provided with the DVD.
Multi-Angle Function
Various angles or viewpoints of the video camera for a scene are recorded on some DVDs.
Multilingual Function
Several languages for the sound or subtitles in a picture are recorded on some DVDs.
Parental Control
A function of some (particulary U.S.) DVDs to limit playback of the disc by the age of the users. The limitation varies from disc to disc. When it is activated, playback is completely prohibited, violent scenes are skipped or replaced with other scenes and so on.
Title
The longest sections of a picture or a music piece on a DVD; a movie, etc., for a picture piece on video software; or an album, etc., for a music piece on an audio software. Each title is assigned a title number enabling you to locate the title you want.
Track
Sections of a music piece on a CD. Each track is assigned a track number enabling you to locate the track you want.
PCM
Pulse code modulation, an uncompressed data formation.
NTSC
National TV Systems Committee: a video standard used in USA.
