We would like to thank you for purchasing one of our JVC products.

Before operating this unit, read this manual carefully and thoroughly to obtain

the best possible performance from your unit, and retain this manual for

future reference.

About This Manual

This manual is organized as follows:

• This manual mainly explains playback and editing operations using the remote control, and other operations such as recording using the buttons on the main unit. You can use the buttons both on the remote control and on the main unit for the same operations if they have the same or similar names (or marks), unless mentioned otherwise.

• Basic and common information that is the same for many functions is grouped in one place, and is not repeated for each procedure. For instance, we do not repeat the information about turning on/off the unit, setting the volume, changing the sound effects, and others, which are explained in the section “Basic and Common Operations” on pages 18 to 23.

• The following symbols are used in this manual:

Gives you warning and caution to prevent damage or risk of fire/electric shock. Furthermore, gives you information which is not good for obtaining the best possible performance from the unit.

Gives you information and hints you had better know.

• Although the speakers are magnetically shielded, the TV may be mottled. In this case, keep the distance from the speakers to the TV until the speakers does not affect the TV.

DO NOT install the unit in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or vibration.

Power sources

• When unplugging the unit from the wall outlet, always pull on the plug, not the AC power cord.

DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet hands.

Moisture condensation

Moisture may condense on the lenses inside the unit in the following cases:

• After starting to heat the room

• In a damp room

• If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm place

Should this occur, the unit may malfunction. In this case, leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, then plug it in again.

Others

• The electronic swing panel may malfunction when you use this unit under intense light such as sunlight.

Precautions

Installation

• Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor too cold—between 5˚C and 35˚C.

• The unit is equipped with the cooling fan which makes possible the high-powered operations with the limited space. When the temperature inside the unit increases due to operating the unit at high volume or consecutively, the cooling fan activates to lower the temperature. Install the unit in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat buildup in the unit.

• Leave sufficient distance between the unit and the TV.

DO NOT expose this unit to intense light.

• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the unit, unplug the AC power cord and consult your dealer before operating any further.

• If you are not going to operate the unit for an extended period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet.

DO NOT disassemble the unit since there are no user serviceable parts inside.

If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and consult your dealer.

• Continued use of irregular shape discs (heart-shape, octagonal, etc.) can damage the unit.

• The Macrovision’s copy protection system is applied to this unit. If you make a copy from a disc recorded this copy protection signal on your VCR, the copy cannot be played back normally.

Note on Region Code

DVD players and DVDs have their own Region Code numbers. This unit can play back only DVDs recorded with the NTSC or PAL color system whose Region Code numbers include “3.”

Ex.:

If a DVD with the improper Region Code numbers is loaded, “REGION CODE ERROR” appears on the display and playback cannot start.

*2 Note on Video Format

• DVDs recorded with the PAL color system cannot be converted into the NTSC color system.

• DVDs recorded with the NTSC color system can be converted into the PAL color system.

• When playing back a SVCD or VCD, the unit can convert both from PAL to NTSC and NTSC to PAL.

DIGITAL AUDIO

In addition to the above discs, this unit can play back audio data recorded on CD Text, CD-G (CD Graphics), and CD-Extra.

• The following discs cannot be played back: DVD Audio, DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, DVD-RW, DVD-R, CD-ROM, CD-I (CD-I Ready), Photo CD, etc. Playing back these discs will generate noise and damage the speakers.

• On some DVD, SVCD, or VCD, the actual operations may be different from what is explained in this manual, due to the programming and disc structure; such difference are not a malfunction of this unit.

Notes on CD-R and CD-RW

• User-edited CD-Rs (Recordable) and CD-RWs (Rewritable) can be played back only if they have been “finalized.”

• The unit can play back CD-Rs or CD-RWs if they have been recorded in the audio CD format. The unit can also play back CD-Rs or CD-RWs if MP3 files are recorded on them. However, these discs may not play back because of their disc characteristics, recording conditions, damage to the disc.

• Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their instructions or cautions carefully.

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time, as the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than for regular CDs.

About audio formats

Some audio formats used on discs are described below:

• Linear PCM

Uncompressed digital audio, the same format used on CDs and most studio masters. DVD supports 2-channels at sampling rates of 48/96 kHz and quantization of 16/20/24 bits. Audio CD/Video CD is limited to 2-channels at 44.1 kHz at 16 bits.

• Dolby Digital

A surround audio format configured with up to six channels. Because the “LFE (Low-Frequency Effect for sub-woofer, etc.)” channel is an auxiliary channel, so this format is called “5.1-channel system.” Not all Dolby Digital discs contain six (5.1) channel information.

• DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

A surround audio format configured with up to six (5.1) channel which is the same as Dolby Digital. Because the compression ratio is lower than for Dolby Digital, it provides wider dynamic range and better separation. Not all DTS discs contain six (5.1) channel information.

• MPEG Multichannel

A surround audio format which can handle the augmentative 7.1-channel format (rare for home use), as well as 5.1-channel.

Disc structure

A DVD consists of “titles,” and each title may be divided into “chapters.” (See Example 1.) For example, if a DVD disc contains some movies, each movie may have its own title number, and it may be further divided into chapters.

Example 1: DVD

On the other hand, a SVCD, VCD, and Audio CD consist of “tracks.” (See Example 2.) In general, each track has its own track number. (On some discs, each track may also be divided by Indexes.)

Example 2: SVCD/VCD/Audio CD

IMPORTANT:

• This unit does not provide the DTS decoding function. The sound signals of DTS are only output through the DVD OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT terminal and are not output through the speakers of this unit. To listen to the sound of DTS, connect a DTS decoder or an amplifier compatible with DTS.

• To reproduce the multichannel sounds such as Dolby Digital 5.1 ch, DTS Digital Surround and MPEG Multichannel, connect an amplifier or a decoder compatible with these multichannel sources to this unit. (See page 11.)

• Playing back an Audio CD whose sound is encoded with DTS may generate noise and damage the speakers. When playing such a disc, turn the volume level on this unit to minimum.

About MP3 disc

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 10 times as much data volume as a regular CD can.

Disc structure

On an MP3 disc, each item (song) is recorded as a track (file), which usually belongs to a group (folder).

Track 1

This unit can recognize up to 99 groups and up to 254 tracks per group; however, the number of tracks to be played back on a disc is limited to 1023. If a disc includes more than 1023 tracks, the unit ignores any tracks which have been assigned track numbers exceeding 1023. The unit also ignores any non-MP3 files on the disc.

Before You Start Recording on an MD

• It may be unlawful to record or play back copyrighted material without the consent of the copyright owner.

• When you record onto a partially recorded MD, its contents are not erased or overwritten. The recording starts from the point following the last recorded track of the MD. If you want to record on such an MD from the beginning, you have to erase its contents first (see “Erasing All Tracks —ALL ERASE” on page 79).

• When an MD is fully recorded, recording will stop automatically.

• The recording level is automatically set correctly, so it is not affected by the volume level. Thus, during recording you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the recording level.

• While recording, you can hear sound mode effect and/or the AHB PRO (Active Hyper Bass Pro) effect through the speakers or headphones. However, the sound is recorded without these effects (see pages 21).

• While recording, the 3D PHONIC function (see page 55) or the COMPRESSION function (see page 86) is activated, the sound is recorded with these effects.

• This unit automatically selects either digital or analog recording according to the playback source.

– For SVCD, VCD, and Audio CD: Digital recording is used. – For DVD and MP3 disc: Analog recording is used. – For “AUX-DIGITAL”: Digital recording is used. – For other analog sources—“FM,” “AM,” “TAPE,” “AUX”:

Analog recording is used.

• You cannot record more than 254 tracks onto an MD, even if there is still enough recording time remaining on it.

About the track marks

When playing an MD, you can move among the tracks. You can do this because there is a mark recorded at the beginning of each track enabling you to locate the track. This mark is called a “track mark” and the portion between two adjacent track marks is called a “track.”

• When using the disc synchronized recording, a

track mark is recorded at the beginning of each chapter and track. You cannot put a track mark on manually.

• When recording from an analog source—“FM,” “AM,” “TAPE,” “AUX,” no track mark is recorded on the MD. This means that, when playing this MD, the MD recorder will regard the entire recording as one track (track 1). You will not be able to select directly a song or navigate through songs.

However, if there is a blank of 3 seconds or more, the MD recorder will consider it as a blank separating 2 tracks and consequently put a track mark (except when recording from an FM or AM broadcast).

To set a track mark manually while recording an analog source, press SET on the remote control at the

place where you want to put a track mark.

To avoid erasing important recordings

The recordable MD has an erasure prevention tab so that important recordings are not accidentally erased. When you finish recording or editing, slide to open the erasure prevention tab on the cartridge side. New recording or editing is now no longer possible. (If you try to do, “DISC PROTECTED” appears in the main display.) To do re-recording or editing, return the tab to the closed position.

Erasure prevention tab

Recording/Editing possible

Disc protected: Recording/Editing not possible

To add a track mark after recording is over, you can use the DIVIDE function. (See page 76.)

If “PLAYBACK DISC” appears in the main display when you try to record on an MD

The MD is only for playback use, not for recording. (See page

96.)

Stereo Long-Hour Recording (MDLP)

On conventional MD recorders, 2 times long-hour recording on MDs has been possible only in monaural sound, but this unit allows for 2 times or 4 times longhour recording without losing stereo sound by the latest ATRAC3* techniques. * See “ATRAC (Adaptive TRansform Acoustic Coding)/

ATRAC3 (

)” below.

To check the remaining recording time

Load an MD to record on.

Select the source to record (except “MD”).

Press DISP/CHARA repeatedly until “REC REMAIN” and the remaining time based on the current recording mode* appear in the main display.

* When the source is “MD,” the remaining time will be

shown based on SP mode.

English

With this feature, you can record on a single MD using different recording length modes—SP: Standard Play, LP2: 2 Times Long Play, LP4: 4 Times Long Play. SP: Signifies standard-hour stereo recording. The

amount of time usable for recording is the same as shown on the package of the MD.

LP2:Signifies 2 times long-hour stereo recording. The

amount of time usable for recording is twice as long as shown on the package of the MD.

LP4:Signifies 4 times long-hour stereo recording. The

amount of time usable for recording is 4 times as long as shown on the package of the MD.

REMEMBER to check the remaining recording time

Precautions for performing long-hour stereo recording

After having made long-hour stereo recordings on this unit, pay attention to the following:

• Songs (tracks) recorded in 2 times or 4 times longhour recording mode can only be played back on equipment provided with MDLP, compatible with a long-hour stereo recording function; otherwise, “LP:” is displayed before a title and playback proceeds without sound.

• When editing songs (tracks) on an MD, you cannot join (JOIN) songs (tracks) recorded in different recording length modes (SP/LP2/LP4).

of MDs before starting recording

The remaining recording time of MDs will be calculated and shown, based on the recording length mode (SP/LP2/ LP4) currently selected. Before starting recording or using the Recording Timer, check the recording time remaining on the MD for each recording length mode (SP/LP2/LP4) and select the optimum recording length mode.

• You cannot make a long-hour monaural recording using this

• Sound quality will decrease as the recording length mode

changes to LP2 (little) and LP4 (much). To obtain the best sound quality, it is recommended to use the SP mode when recording.

SCMS (Serial Copy Management System)

The MD recorder integrated to this unit uses the Serial Copy Management System which allows only first-generation digital copies to be made of premastered software (like CDs or prerecorded MDs).

1st Generation

ABCDEFG

CD-R/RWCD

2nd Generation

ABCDEFG

ATRAC (Adaptive TRansform Acoustic Coding)/ATRAC3 ( )

The MD provides 80 minute recording and playback time, much more than an audio CD, but in a diameter of only 64 mm. This ability to store such a large amount of data is the result of ATRAC, an audio compression technique developed for MD. This technology cuts out faint sounds that would not be heard by the human beings. This technology, based on human sensitivity to sounds, reduces recorded data volume up to about one-fifth of the original data volume.

Furthermore, this unit takes advantage of the latest ATRAC3 techniques, which can reduce the amount of data to record to one-10th or one-20th of the original data volume. This allows for 2 times or 4 times long-hour stereo recording on this unit.

English

Guidance—MD Group Functions

English

To add to the conventional MD editing functions (called the track editing functions in this manual), MD group functions help you to classify the tracks by making groups on your MD.

Classifying the tracks on an MD

MDLP enables you to record more tracks on a single MD than the conventional recording method. So, there are many tracks which have been recorded from the various sources—discs, FM, and so on—on your MD.

In that case, if you can classify the tracks by source, by album, or by artist, the playback of your favorite songs becomes much easier.

CC9D10E

In the figure above, as an example, there are 5 different genres (from A to E) of tracks on the MD. Using MD group functions, you can form a group by genre B tracks as Group 1.

By forming groups on the MD, you can classify the tracks by each genre—the album title, the artist, etc. You can also assign a name to each group. (See pages 80 to 82.)

Group 3

Using MD group functions

MD group functions consist of group play, group recording and group editing.

• Group play (see page 45):

You can play back and repeat the desired group without making a program: For example, you can play back genre B tracks continuously by selecting group 1 in the left figure.

• Group recording (see page 59):

You can form a group while tracks are being recorded.

• Group editing:

You can edit the groups using the following functions: – Forming a group (FORM GR) – Adding a track to a group (ENTRY GR) – Dividing a group (DIVIDE GR) – Joining two groups (JOIN GR) – Moving a group (MOVE GR) – Ungrouping tracks (UNGROUP) – Dissolving all groups (UNGR ALL) – Erasing tracks in a group (ERASE GR)

How to make up groups

You can make up groups using two methods: the forming-a-group function and the group recording function.

• Forming-a-group function—FORM GR:

Select this function when you want to make groups after recording. (See page 68.)

• Group recording function:

Select this function when you want to record and group tracks at the same time. (See page 59.)

About information concerning MD group functions

Once you edit an MD using MD group functions, the MD is assigned some characters as the information concerning MD group functions. These characters appear only when you play back the MD using the equipment incompatible with MD group functions. If you edit the characters using such equipment, the groups on the MD will be dissolved.

Assigning Titles to an MD

You can assign a name to each MD, to each group and to each track using alphabetic characters (uppercase and lowercase), symbols and numerals. Once a title is assigned, it is displayed for your confirmation.

• You cannot edit titles composed of more than 61 characters.

About the number of characters entered for an MD

The total number of characters that you can enter for an MD is

1792. The maximum number that you can enter for each title is

61. (However, the actual number you can enter may be slightly less than these maximum numbers due to MD limitations—see page 96.)

• A space can be counted as one character.

• When the stereo long-hour recording (LP2 or LP4, see page

58) method is used for recording, the maximum number you can enter for a track title is automatically reduced since “LP:” and a space are automatically added to the beginning of the track title. Consequently this reduces the total number of characters you can enter for an MD. Ex.: You can enter up to 10 characters for each track if an

MD is composed of 120 tracks recorded using the stereo long-hour recording method.

In the following example, the process is explained from the very beginning—that is, inserting a disc. If you have

already started recording or playing, start from step

• You can also edit titles during playback (in normal play mode).

MD limitations

The MD records data in an original format that differs from that of conventional cassette tapes or DATs. Since there are some limitations with this recording format, the following types of symptoms may occur. These symptoms are not malfunctions.

Symptoms

“DISC FULL” appears, even though there is still enough remaining time on an MD.

There is a maximum number of tracks which can be recorded, regardless of recording time. More than 254

Cause

tracks cannot be recorded on an MD.

“DISC FULL” appears, even though the number of tracks and recording time do not reach the limit.

amount.

• If a track has been divided into many portions while being recorded on the MD, sounds will drop out while fast forwarding or reversing such an MD.

The amount of recorded time on the MD added to the amount of remaining time is shorter than the MD’s total allowable recording time.

You cannot record on a blank portion of less than 12 seconds (SP mode) on the MD. For this reason, the actual recording time of discs may become shorter.
