Connections

Before using the unit, connect the unit to a TV and/or amplifier.

Before making connections

• Do not connect the AC power cord until all other connections have been made.

• Connect VIDEO OUT of the unit directly to the video input of your TV. Connecting VIDEO OUT of the unit to a TV via a VCR may cause a monitor problem when playing back a copy-protected disc. You may also have a monitor problem when connecting the unit to an integrated TV/Video system.

• When you use a commercial cable, be sure to check the cable size, flexibility, and the size of the plug, and use an equivalent one. When you do not use the equivalent one, the cover may not be able to attached.

• Before connection, install the unit and set the DIRECTION switch on the rear of the unit according to your installation (see page 6).

NOTES

• In this connection, set the VIDEO SIGNAL SELECTOR to “COMP./RGB.”

• If your TV has a monaural audio input instead of stereo, you need to use an optional audio cable which converts stereo audio output to monaural.

B To connect to a TV with the SCART connector

You can enjoy using the unit by simply connecting it to your television set with a 21-pin SCART cable.

NOTE

Sound recorded on DTS-encoded DVD VIDEO or DTSencoded Audio CD discs are not output from the analog (AUDIO OUT LEFT/RIGHT) jacks of the unit.

Connecting to a digital audio device

You can enjoy sound of enhanced quality by connecting the unit’s DIGITAL OUT (either OPTICAL or COAXIAL) jack to a digital input of an amplifier, etc., using an optical or coaxial digital cable. The digital audio signal on a disc will be transferred directly from the unit. If the connected digital audio equipment is a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder or an amplifier with a built-in decoder, you can enjoy high-quality surround sound.

NOTES

• Connect the unit and the digital audio device by using either an optical digital cable or a coaxial digital cable.

• It is not recommended to use the digital jacks for dubbing. When recording the sounds (DVD VIDEO, SVCD, Video CD or Audio CD) played back on the unit, record them through the analog jacks.

• Depending on the disc, no signal may be output from the DIGITAL OUT. Make an analog connection in this case.

• Set [DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT] in the [AUDIO] preference display correctly according to the connected digital audio equipment. If setting made for [DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT] is incorrect, loud noise may be generated causing damage to the speakers (see page 34).

Basic operations

Resuming playback

The unit can memorize the position on a disc where you interrupted playback, and resume playback from that position later. There are three resume modes; ON, OFF and DISC RESUME. The mode is initially set to ON when you purchased the unit.

• You can select the mode using the preference display (see page 35).

When the resume mode is “ON”

When you press 7, the unit stops playback and memorizes the interrupted position. The TV screen shows [RESUME STOP] and the [RESUME] indicator lights up in the display window. The memory of the interrupted position is not cleared if you turn off the unit. When you turn off the unit after setting the resume function, simply press 3. The unit is turned on, and playback starts from the interrupted position. If you turn

on the unit by pressing STANDBY/ON then press 3, playback starts from the beginning of the disc. Note that the memory is cleared if you eject the disc.

When the resume mode is “DISC RESUME”

When you press 7, the unit stops playback and memorizes the interrupted position. The TV screen shows [RESUME STOP] and the [RESUME] indicator lights up in the display window.

The memory of the interrupted position is not cleared if you eject the disc or turn off the unit.

Hint

The unit memorizes interrupted positions for the last 30 discs played. Storing a new interrupted position will erase the interrupted position stored for the first disc.

To clear the memory

Press 7 while the disc is stopped.

About screen saver function

A television monitor may have an image burned into it if a static image is displayed for a long time. To prevent this, the unit automatically activates the screen saver function if a static picture, such as an on-screen display or menu, is displayed for over 5 minutes. When the screen saver function is activated, the TV screen gets darker. Pressing any buttons will release the screen saver function (see page 34).
