Getting Started

Before Installation

General Precautions

• DO NOT insert any metal object into the unit.

• DO NOT disassemble the unit or remove screws, covers, or

cabinet.

• DO NOT expose the unit to rain or moisture.

Locations

• Install the unit in a location that is level and protected from moisture.

• The temperature around the unit must be between 5˚C and 35˚C.

• Make sure there is good ventilation around the unit. Poor

ventilation could cause overheating and damage the unit.

Handling the unit

• DO NOT touch the power cord with wet hands.

• DO NOT pull on the power cord to unplug it. When unplugging

the cord, always grasp the plug so as not to damage the cord.

• Keep the power cord away from the connecting cords and the antenna. The power cord may cause noise or screen interference. It is recommended to use a coaxial cable for antenna connection, since it is well-shielded against interference.

• When a power failure occurs, or when you unplug the power cord, the preset settings such as preset FM or AM channels and sound adjustments may be erased in a few days.

Putting Batteries in the Remote Control

Before using the remote control, put two supplied batteries first.

• When using the remote control, aim the remote control directly at the remote sensor on the unit.

On the back of the remote control, remove the battery cover.

Insert batteries. Make sure to match the polarity: (+) to (+) and (–) to (–).

Checking the Supplied Accessories

Check to be sure you have all of the following supplied accessories. The number in the parentheses indicates the quantity of the pieces supplied.

• Remote Control (1)

• Batteries (2)

• AM Loop Antenna (1)

• FM Antenna (1)

If anything is missing, contact your dealer immediately.

Replace the cover.

If the range or effectiveness of the remote control decreases, replace the batteries. Use two R6P(SUM-3)/AA(15F) type dry-cell batteries.

CAUTION:

Follow these precautions to avoid leaking or cracking cells:

• Place batteries in the remote control so they match the polarity:

(+) to (+) and (–) to (–).

• Use the correct type of batteries. Batteries that look similar may

differ in voltage.

• Always replace both batteries at the same time.

• Do not expose batteries to heat or flame.

■ SCART connection

DO NOT connect a TV through a VCR or a TV with a built-in VCR; otherwise, the picture may be distorted.

Illustrations of the input/output terminals below are typical examples. When you connect other components, refer also to their manuals since the terminal names actually printed on the rear vary among the components.

Setting the RGB/YC selector

Set the RGB/YC selector as follows while the unit is turned off:

• When the TV is compatible with RGB signal, set to “RGB.”

• When the TV is compatible with S-video signal, set to “YC.”

• When the TV is compatible with composite video signal only, set to “RGB.”

For TV and video format

When the TV is equipped with the plural SCART terminals, refer to the manual supplied with the TV to check the available video signals for each terminal, then connect SCART cable correctly.

This unit cannot convert the video signals (S-video or Composite). When the video signal of one video component is different from that of the other (for example, one is S-video, the other is Composite), you may not see the pictures appropriately. In this case, unify the video signals of all the video components into S-video or Composite, or you need to switch the video signal of TV each time you change the source.

For T-V LINK

• You can use T-V LINK function if you connect the T-V LINK compatible TV and VCR to this unit with a fully wired SCART cables. For details on T-V LINK, refer also to the manuals supplied with the TV and the VCR.

• Connect SCART cable to EXT-2 terminal on your JVC's T-V LINK compatible TV for T-V LINK function.

• Some TV, VCR, and STB support this type of data communication. For complete details, refer also to the manuals supplied with these equipments.

Now, you can plug the power cord of the unit into the AC outlet.

CAUTIONS:

• Do not touch the power cord with wet hands.

• Do not pull on the power cord to unplug the cord. When unplugging

the cord, always grasp the plug so as not to damage the cord.

Notes:

• Keep the power cord away from the connecting cords and the antenna cables. The power cord may cause noise or screen interference.

Using the RDS (Radio Data System) to Receive FM Stations

RDS allows FM stations to send an additional signal along with their regular program signals. For example, the stations send their station names, as well as information about what type of program they broadcast, such as sports or music, etc.

When tuned in to an FM station which provides the RDS service, the RDS indicator lights up on the display.

RDS indicator

With the unit, you can receive the following types of RDS signals:

PS (Program Service) : Shows commonly known station

names.

PTY (Program Type) : Shows types of broadcast programs.

RT (Radio Text) : Shows text messages the station

sends.

Enhanced Other Networks : See page 21.

What information can RDS signals provide?

You can see the RDS signals the station sends on the display.

Press DISPLAY while listening to an FM station to show the RDS signals.

• Each time you press the button, the display changes to show you the following information:

PS (Program Service):

While searching, “PS” appears and then the station names will be displayed. “NO PS” appears if no signal is sent.

PTY (Program Type):

While searching, “PTY” appears and then the type of the broadcast program will be displayed. “NO PTY” appears if no signal is sent.

RT (Radio Text):

While searching, “RT” appears and then text messages the station sends will be displayed. “NO RT” appears if no signal is sent.

Frequency:

Station frequency (non-RDS service).

Notes:

• RDS is not available for AM broadcasts.

• RDS may not operate correctly if the station tuned is not

transmitting RDS signal properly or if the signal strength is weak.

Operation Buttons

You can use the following buttons for RDS operations:

• When using the remote

control, press FM/AM to change the remote control operation mode to the tuner.

About characters shown on the display

When PS, PTY, or RT signals appear on the display window, some special characters and marks may not be displayed correctly.

Note:

• If searching finishes at once, “PS,” “PTY,” and “RT” will not appear

on the display.

Switching to Broadcast Program of Your Choice Temporarily

Another convenient RDS service is called “Enhanced Other Networks.” This allows the unit to switch temporarily to a broadcast program of your choice (TA, NEWS, and/or INFO) from a different station except in the following cases:

• When you are listening to non-RDS stations (all AM stations, some FM stations and other sources).

• When the unit is in standby mode or in TV Direct.

Before you start, remember...

• The Enhanced Other Networks function is only applicable to preset stations.

Press TA/NEWS/INFO repeatedly until the program type you want appears on the display.

• Each time you press the button, the display changes to show the following:

TA : Traffic Announcement in your area.

NEWS : News.

INFO :Program the purpose of which is to impart advice in

the widest sense.

CASE 2

If the FM station you are listening to is broadcasting the program you have selected

The unit continues to receive the station but the indicator of received PTY code starts flashing.

When the program is over, the indicator of received PTY code stops flashing and remains lit, but the Enhanced Other Networks function still remains activated.

To stop listening to the program selected by Enhanced Other Networks

Press TA/NEWS/INFO repeatedly again so that the program type (TA/NEWS/INFO) indicator goes off from the display. The unit exits from Enhanced Other Networks standby mode and goes back to the previously selected station.

When an emergency broadcast (Alarm ! signal) is sent from an FM station

The unit automatically tunes in to the station except in the following cases:

• When you are listening to non-RDS stations (all AM stations, some FM stations and other sources).

• When the unit is in standby mode or TV Direct.

While receiving an emergency broadcast, “Alarm !” appears on the display.

The TEST signal is used for equipment test—whether it can receive the Alarm ! signal correctly

The TEST signal makes the unit work in the same way as the Alarm ! signal does. If the TEST signal is received, the unit automatically switches to the station broadcasting the TEST signal. While receiving the TEST signal, “TEST” appears on the display.

How the Enhanced Other Networks function actually works:

CASE 1

If there is no station broadcasting the program you have selected

The unit continues tuning in the current station.

When a station starts broadcasting the program you have selected, the unit automatically switches to the station. The indicator of received PTY code starts flashing.

When the program is over, the unit goes back to the previously tuned station, but the Enhanced Other Networks function still remains activated.

Notes:

• Enhanced Other Networks data sent from some stations may not

be compatible with this unit.

• Enhanced Other Networks does not function for some FM stations

with RDS service.

• While listening to a program tuned in to by the Enhanced Other

Networks function, the station does not change even if another networks station starts broadcasting a program of the same Enhanced Other Networks data.

• While listening to a program tuned in to by the Enhanced Other

Networks function, you can only use the TA/NEWS/INFO and DISPLAY as the buttons for the tuner operations.

• If the stations alternate intermittently between the station tuned in

by the Enhanced Other Networks function and the current station, press TA/NEWS/INFO repeatedly to cancel the Enhanced Other Networks function. If you do not press the button, the current station is received finally, and the unit turns off the indication for the Enhanced Other Networks data type from the display.

■ Dolby Surround

Dolby Pro Logic II*

Dolby Pro Logic II has newly developed multichannel playback

format to decode into 5.1-channel from all 2-channel sources— stereo source and Dolby Digital encoded source. Matrix-based encoding/decoding method for Dolby Pro Logic II makes no limitation for the cutoff frequency of the rear treble and enables stereo rear sound compared to conventional Dolby Pro Logic.

• You cannot select Dolby Pro Logic II when playing back DVD AUDIO.

Dolby Pro Logic II enables to reproduce spacious sound from original sound without adding any new sounds and tonal colorations. Dolby Pro Logic II has two modes—Movie mode and Music mode:

Pro Logic II Movie (PL II MOVIE)—suitable for reproduction of Dolby Surround encoded sources bearing the mark and stereo television sources. You can enjoy sound field very close to the one created with discrete 5.1-channel sounds. Pro Logic II Music (PL II MUSIC)—suitable for reproduction of any 2-channel stereo music sources. You can enjoy wide and deep sound by using this mode.

• When Dolby Pro Logic II is activated, the

PRO LOGIC II

indicator lights up on the display.

Dolby Digital*

Used to reproduce multichannel sound tracks of the software encoded with Dolby Digital (

• To enjoy the software encoded with Dolby Digital, connect the source component using the digital terminal on the rear of this unit. (See page 8.)

Dolby Digital 5.1-channel encoding method (so-called discrete multichannel digital audio format) records and digitally compresses the left front channel, right front channel, center channel, left rear channel, right rear channel, and LFE channel signals. Since each channel is completely independent from the other channel signals to avoid interference, you can obtain much better sound quality with much stereo and surround effects.

■ DTS Digital Surround**

Used to reproduce multichannel sound tracks of the software encoded with DTS Digital Surround (

• To enjoy the software encoded with DTS Digital Surround, connect the source component using the digital terminal on the rear of this unit. (See page 8.)

DTS Digital Surround is another discrete multichannel digital audio format available on CD, LD, and DVD software. Compared to Dolby Digital, audio compression ratio is relatively low. This fact allows DTS Digital Surround format to add breadth and depth to the reproduced sounds. As a result, DTS Digital Surround features natural, solid and clear sound.

Typical Multichannel (5.1-channel) reproduction

■ DAP (Digital Acoustic Processor) modes

DAP modes have been designed to create important acoustic surround elements.

• You cannot select DAP modes when playing back DVD AUDIO.

The sound heard in a live club, dance club, hall or pavilion consists of direct sound and indirect sound—early reflections and reflections from behind. Direct sounds reach the listener directly without any reflection. On the other hand, indirect sounds are delayed by the distances of the ceiling and walls (see the diagram on the next page). These indirect sounds are important elements of the acoustic surround effects. The DAP mode can reproduce a realistic sound field by adding these indirect sounds.

DAP modes can be used when the front and rear speakers are connected to this unit (without respect to the center speaker connection: no sound comes out of the center speaker even if it is connected).

Note:

• Dolby Digital or DTS software can be roughly grouped into two categories —multichannel (up to 5.1-channel) and 2-channel software. To enjoy surround sounds while playing Dolby Digital 2-channel or DTS software, you can use Dolby Pro Logic II.

The following DAP modes are provided for this unit:

LIVE CLUB : Gives the feeling of a live music club with a low

ceiling.

DANCE CLUB : Gives a throbbing bass beat.

HALL : Gives clear vocal and the feeling of a concert

hall.

PAVILION : Gives the spacious feeling of a pavilion with a

high ceiling.

These DAP modes can be used to add the acoustic surround effects while reproducing 2-channel stereo software, either analog or Linear PCM digital signal, and can give you a real “being there” feeling.

• When one of the DAP modes is selected, the DSP indicator lights

up on the display.

■ All Channel Stereo

This mode can reproduce a larger stereo sound field using all the connected (and activated) speakers.

• You cannot select All Channel Stereo when playing back DVD AUDIO.

All Channel Stereo can be used when the front and rear speakers are connected to this receiver without respect to the center speaker connection.

If the center speaker is connected and activated, the same phases of the front left and right signals are mixed and output through the center speaker.

All Channel Stereo can be used while reproducing 2-channel stereo software, either analog or Linear PCM digital signal.

• When All Channel Stereo is selected, the DSP indicator lights up on the display.

Disc Information

7 Playable Disc Types

This unit has been designed to play back the following discs: DVD VIDEO, DVD AUDIO, Video CD (VCD), Super Video CD (SVCD), audio CD, CD-R, and CD-RW.

• This unit can also play back MP3 and JPEG files recorded on CD-R and CD-RW. For details about MP3, see “MP3 Disc Playback” on pages 49 and 50 and about JPEG, see “JPEG Disc Playback” on pages 51 and 52.

• This instruction refers to Video CD as VCD, Super Video CD as SVCD, and audio CD as CD.

Discs you can play:

Disc Type

Mark (Logo)

• The following discs cannot be played back:

DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, DVD-RW, CD-ROM, CD-I (CD-I Ready), Photo CD, etc. Playing back these discs will generate noise and damage the speakers.

• On some DVD VIDEO, DVD AUDIO, VCD, or SVCD, their actual operations may be different from what is explained in this manual. This is due to the disc programming and disc structure, but not a malfunction of this unit.

• You can play back DVD-R recorded with the DVD VIDEO format, but some may not be played back because of the disc characteristics or recording conditions.

Note on Region Code

DVD players and DVD VIDEO have their own Region Code numbers. This unit can play back only DVD VIDEO recorded with the color system of PAL whose Region Code numbers include “2.”

Ex. :

If a DVD VIDEO with the wrong Region Code numbers is loaded, “REGION CODE ERROR!” appears on the TV and playback cannot start.

IMPORTANT : Before playing a disc, make sure of the following...

• Check the connection with the TV.

• Turn on the TV and select the correct input mode on the TV to

view the pictures or on-screen indications on the TV screen.

• For disc playback, you can change the initial setting to your preference. (See pages 53 to 62.)

If “

” appears on the TV screen when you press a button,

the disc cannot accept an operation you have tried to do, or data required for that operation is not recorded on the disc.

DVD VIDEO DVD AUDIO VCD SVCD CD CD-R CD-RW

Notes on CD-R and CD-RW

• User-edited CD-R (Recordable) and CD-RW (ReWritable) can be played back only if they are already “finalized.”

• The unit can play back CD-R or CD-RW recorded on a personal computer if they have been recorded in the audio CD format . The unit can also play back CD-R or CD-RW if MP3 files or JPEG files are recorded on them. However, they may not be played back because of their disc characteristics, recording conditions, or damage or stain on them. Especially, the configuration and characteristics of an MP3 disc or a JPEG disc is determined by the writing (encoding) software and hardware used for recording. Therefore, due to the software and hardware used, the following symptoms may occur:

– Some discs may not be played back. – Some tracks on an MP3 disc are skipped and may not be

played back normally.

– Some files on a JPEG disc may be played back distortedly.

• Before playing back CD-R or CD-RW, read their instructions

or cautions carefully.

• CD-RW may require a longer readout time. It is caused by the fact that the reflectance of CD-RW is lower than for regular audio CD.

NOTICE : In some cases, without showing “ will not be accepted.

”, operations

7 Disc structure

DVD VIDEO consists of “titles,” and each title may be divided into some “chapters” (see Example 1). For example, if DVD VIDEO contains some movies, each movie may have its own title number and it may be further divided into some chapters. In DVD VIDEO Karaoke, each song may have its own title number, but it may not be further divided into chapters.

Example 1: DVD VIDEO

DVD AUDIO consists of “groups,” and each group may be divided into some “tracks” (see Example 2). Some DVD AUDIO also contain a “bonus group” that can be played back by entering the “key number” (a kind of password). Usually the contents of “bonus group” are not opened to the public. Note that most DVD AUDIO include other information in addition to audio, such as still pictures, movies, and text.

VCD, SVCD, and CD consist of “tracks” (see Example 3). In general, each track has its own track number. (On some discs, each track may also be divided by Indexes. This unit is not compatible with Index function.)

7 Playback Control function (PBC)

The Playback Control function allows you to enjoy menu-driven operation.

Menu-driven playback

A selection menu is displayed when you start playing VCD and SVCD with the Playback Control feature. The selection menu shows a list of numbers for selection. Some discs may show moving pictures or a divided screen. You can interact with the screen using a menu display to select and play an entry. See the example illustration on the right about basic feature of menu-driven playback (for details about the operation through the menu, see also page 37).

Example 2: DVD AUDIO

Example 3 : VCD/SVCD/CD

Note:

• While operating VCD or SVCD using the menu, some of the functions such as repeat play may not work.

This unit can play back MP3 files on a CD-R or CD-RW. We call such a disc “MP3 disc” in this instruction.

• Before using the remote control, press DVD to change the remote control operation mode for the MP3 disc operations.

• Turn on your TV and select the correct input mode on the TV.

If “

” appears on the TV when you press a button, the disc cannot accept an operation you have tried to do.

What is MP3?

MP3 is an abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group 1 (or MPEG-1) Audio Layer 3. MP3 is simply a file format with a data compression. By using MP3 format, one CD-R or CD-RW can contain about 10 times as many songs as a regular CD can.

Disc structure

On an MP3 disc, each song (material) is recorded as a file. Files are usually grouped into a folder. Folders can also include other folders, creating hierarchical folder layers. This unit simplifies the hierarchical construction of a disc and manages files and folders by “tracks” and “groups.”

Up to 99 groups

Up to 150 tracks

This unit can recognize up to 150 tracks per group and up to 99 groups per disc (up to 14,850 tracks in total). Since the unit ignores the tracks whose numbers are exceeding 150 and the groups whose numbers are exceeding 99, they cannot be played back.

• If there are any type of files other than MP3 files in a folder, those files are also counted in the total file number.

Notes:

• MP3 discs (either CD-R or CD-RW) require a longer readout time

than normal discs. (It depends on the complexity of the folder/file configuration.)

• When making an MP3 disc, select ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2

as the disc format.

• This unit supports “multi-session” discs (up to 5 sessions).

• This unit cannot play “packet write” discs.

• This unit can play MP3 files only with the following file

extensions: “.MP3,” “.Mp3,” “.mP3,” and “.mp3.”

• ID3* tags cannot be shown on the display.

An MP3 file can contain file information called “ID3 Tag” where its album name, performer, track title, etc. are recorded. There are two versions—ID3v1 (ID3 Tag version 1) and ID3v2 (ID3 Tag version 2).

• It is recommended that you make each MP3 file at sampling rate

of 44.1 kHz and at bit rate of 128 kbps. The unit cannot play back the files made at bit rate of under 64 kbps.

• If both MP3 files and JPEG files are recorded on a disc, set the

MP3/JPEG setting in the PICTURE menu to “MP3.” (See page 56.)

• Some MP3 discs may not be played back because of their disc

characteristics or recording conditions.

This unit can play back JPEG files on a CD-R or CD-RW. We call such a disc “JPEG disc” in this instruction.

• Before using the remote control, press DVD to change the remote control operation mode for the JPEG disc operations.

• Turn on your TV and select the correct input mode on the TV.

If “

” appears on the TV when you press a button, the disc cannot accept an operation you have tried to do.

What is JPEG?

A still-picture data compression system proposed by the Joint Photographic Expert Group, which features little distortion in image quality in spite of its high compression ratio.

Disc structure

On a JPEG disc, each still picture (material) is recorded as a file. Files are usually grouped into a folder. Folders can also include other folders, creating hierarchical folder layers. This unit simplifies the hierarchical construction of a disc and manages folders by “groups.”

Up to 99 groups

Up to 150 files

This unit can recognize up to 150 files per group and up to 99 groups per disc (up to 14,850 files in total). Since the unit ignores the files whose numbers are exceeding 150 and the groups whose numbers are exceeding 99, they cannot be played back.

• If there are any type files other than JPEG files in a folder, those files are also counted in the total file number.

Slide-show Playback

You can play back the still pictures one after another automatically —slide-show playback. You can also use the buttons on the front panel if they have the similar names as those on the remote control.

• Before using the remote control, press DVD to change the

remote control operation mode.

7 Starting slide-show playback

Load a JPEG disc, then press 3.

The slide-show playback starts. Each file (still picture) is shown on the TV for about 3 seconds, then changed to the next file one after another.

When all files in a group have been played back, the unit plays back files in the next group.

Notes:

• JPEG discs (either CD-R or CD-RW) require a longer readout

time than normal discs. (It depends on the complexity of the folder/file configuration.)

• When making a JPEG disc, select ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2

as the disc format.

• This unit supports “multi-session” discs (up to 5 sessions).

• This unit cannot play “packet write” discs.

• The unit can play JPEG files only with the following file

extensions: “.jpg,” “.jpeg,” “.JPG,” “.JPEG” and any uppercase and lowercase combinations (such as “.Jpg”).

• It is recommended you to record a file at 640 x 480 resolution. (If

a file has been recorded at a resolution of more than 640 x 480, it will take a longer time to be shown.)

• If both JPEG files and MP3 files are recorded on a disc, set the

MP3/JPEG setting in the PICTURE menu to “JPEG.” (See page 56.)

• This system can play only baseline JPEG files*. Progressive

JPEG files* or lossless JPEG files* cannot be played.

– Baseline JPEG format: Used for digital cameras, web, etc. – Progressive JPEG format: Used for web. – Lossless JPEG format: An old type and rarely used now.

• Some JPEG discs may not be played back because of their disc

characteristics or recording conditions.

Glossary for DVD Player

Aspect ratio

The ratio of vertical and horizontal sizes of a displayed image. The horizontal vs. vertical ratio of conventional TVs is 4:3 and that of wide-screen TVs is 16:9.

Chapter

The smallest division on DVD VIDEO. It is a division of a title and similar to a track for CD or VCD.

Component video signal

A video signal system where parts of information necessary for reproducing image signal comprised of the three primary colors of light are transmitted via separate signal lines. Types of signal, such as R/G/B, Y/P

B/PR, etc., are available.

Composite video signal

A video signal comprised of three kinds of signals combined: an image signal made up of luminance and chrominance signals using the frequency multiplication technique, burst signal providing the basis for color reproduction, and synchronization signal.

Disc menu

A screen display prepared for allowing selection of images, sounds, subtitles, multi-angle, etc. recorded on DVD VIDEO.

JPEG

A still-picture data compression system proposed by the Joint Photographic Expert Group, which features little distortion in image quality in spite of its high compression ratio.

Multichannel

DVD VIDEO has been designed to have each soundtrack constitute one sound field. Multichannel refers to a structure of sound tracks having three or more channels.

Multilanguage

When a title is created to cope with multiple languages, it is generally called a multilanguage title.

Parental Lock

A feature of this system to automatically determine whether or not to reproduce particular DVD VIDEO software by comparing its parental level (a measure of undesirability of scenes, etc. from educational viewpoint) set for the software beforehand with that set on this system by the user; if the software’s level is less restrictive than the user-set level, it will be reproduced.

Playback control (PBC)

Refers to the signal recorded on VCD/SVCD for controlling reproduction. By using menu screens recorded on VCD/SVCD that supports PBC, you can enjoy interactive-type software as well as software having a search function.

Region code

A system for allowing discs to be played back only in the regions designated beforehand. All the countries in the world are divided into six regions and each region is identified by a specified region code (or region number). If the region code of a disc matches that of a player, the player can play back the disc.

Letter box

A method of displaying wide images like movies in on a 4:3 TV screen with no part of the image deleted by placing black bands on the top and bottom of the screen. This name has derived from the screen form looking literally like a letter box.

Linear PCM (PCM: Pulse Code Modulation)

A system for converting analog sound signal to digital signal for later processing with no data compression used in conversion.

MP3

A file format with a sound data compression system. “MP3” is the abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group 1 (or MPEG-1) Audio Layer 3. By using MP3 format, one CD-R or CD-RW can contain about 10 times as much data volume as a regular CD can.

Multi-angle

By recording multiple scenes progressing at the same time in a single title, the user can select view angles. This feature is called the multi-angle function.

Sampling frequency

Frequency of sampling data when analog data is converted to digital data. Sampling frequency numerically represents how many times the original analog signal is sampled per second.

Surround

A system for creating three-dimensional sound fields full of realism by arranging multiple speakers around the listener.

Transfer rate

The rate of transferring digital data. Usually the measure is in bit per second (bps). The DVD system applies a variable transfer rate system for high efficiency.
