Preparations
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.
Connecting to a TV
The following sections A to C describe TV connections where
only a TV is connected to the unit so that you will hear audio from
the TV.
A Connecting to a conventional TV
NOTE
If your TV has an AV COMPU LINK terminal, you can use the AV
COMPU LINK function. See “AV COMPU LINK remote control
system” on page 46 for details.
• In the following description, “TV” may be substituted with
“monitor” or “projector.”
• Terminal names used for other components may be different
from those used in the following description.
NOTES
• Be sure to connect the red and white plugs of the audio/video
cable to the FRONT RIGHT/LEFT jacks on the rear of the unit,
as shown in the illustration.
• 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.
• Set [ANALOG OUT] in the [AUDIO] preference display to [2-CH
STEREO] (see page 38).

About the scanning mode
Depending on the material source format, DVD VIDEO discs
can be classified into two types; film source and video source
(note that some DVD VIDEO discs contain both film source
and video source). Film sources are recorded as 24-frame-persecond information, while (NTSC) video sources are recorded
as 30-frame-per-second (60-field-per-second interlaced)
information.
When the unit plays back a film source material, uninterlaced
progressive output signals are created using the original
information. When a video source material is played back, the
unit interleaves lines between the interlaced lines on each to
create the interpolated picture and outputs as the progressive
signal.

Selecting the VIDEO SIGNAL SELECTOR position
• If your TV equipped with component jacks does not support the
progressive scanning mode
Set the VIDEO SIGNAL SELECTOR to “480i.”
• If your TV equipped with component jacks supports the
progressive scanning mode
Set the VIDEO SIGNAL SELECTOR to “480p.”
• If you want to select the scanning mode between the interlace
and progressive modes (depending on the source condition, or
when connecting more than one TV, etc.)
Set the VIDEO SIGNAL SELECTOR to “REMOTE.”
Thus you can select the mode from the remote control unit.
NOTE
You must change the VIDEO SIGNAL SELECTOR position while
the unit power is off. Otherwise, the changed setting is not
effective.
Activating the Progressive scanning mode using the remote
control unit
When the unit is turned on and the VIDEO SIGNAL SELECTOR
is set to “REMOTE,” press and hold down VFP - PROGRESSIVE
SCAN for a few seconds.
The scanning mode switches between the Progressive scanning
and Interlaced scanning modes.
When the scanning mode is set to the Progressive mode, the
PROGRESSIVE indicator on the front panel turns on.
Depending on the [PICTURE SOURCE] setting on the
[PICTURE] preference display and whether the current DVD
VIDEO disc is film-source or video-source, the color of the
indicator differs, as shown in the table below. (See page 37.)

• There are some progressive TV and High-Definition TV sets
that are not fully compatible with the unit, resulting in the

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 AUDIO, DVD VIDEO, SVCD,
Video CD or Audio CD) played back on the unit, record them
through the analog jacks (in this case, set [ANALOG OUT] in
the [AUDIO] preference display to [2-CH STEREO]) (see page
38).
• 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 38).

Basic operations
Resuming playback
The unit can memorize the position on a disc where you interrupt
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 39).
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 display window shows [– – – – RESUME] (for DVD AUDIO/
DVD VIDEO discs) or [– – RESUME] (for SVCD/Video CD/VR
format discs).
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
then press 3, playback starts from the beginning of the disc.
Note that the memory is cleared if you open the disc tray.
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 display window shows [– – – – RESUME] (for DVD AUDIO/
DVD VIDEO discs) or [– – RESUME] (for SVCD/Video CD discs).
The memory of the interrupted position is not cleared if you open
the disc tray 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.
To resume playback
When the resume mode is “ON”
While the disc you interrupted playback is
still on the disc tray, press 3.
The unit resumes playback from the position where playback
was interrupted. The TV screen and the display window show
[RESUME PLAY].
To play back from the beginning
Press 7 before pressing 3 to start playback.
When the resume mode is “DISC RESUME”
1 Press 0 to insert a disc for which the unit has
stored an interrupted position.
The TV screen shows [RESUME STOP].
2 Press 3.
The TV screen and the display window show [RESUME
PLAY] and the unit resumes playback from the position
where playback was interrupted.
To play back from the beginning
After inserting the disc, press 7 before pressing 3 to start
playback.
NOTES
• If you change the [RESUME] setting from [DISC RESUME] to
[OFF] or [ON], you cannot resume playback of a disc whose
“resuming” position is stored. However, when you again set
[RESUME] to [DISC RESUME], you will then be able to resume
playback of the disc.
• If you interrupt the playback of a disc for which an interrupted
position has already been stored, the memory will be updated
with the new interrupted position.
• For a double-sided DVD AUDIO/DVD VIDEO disc, the unit
regards each side as a different disc. Therefore, to resume
playback of such a disc, the disc must be inserted with the
same side down.
• When the unit memorizes an interrupted point for a disc, it also
memorizes Audio, Subtitle and Angle settings.
• The unit may not resume playback exactly from the interrupted
point. In the case of an SVCD/Video CD disc with PBC function,
the unit may resume playback from a point slightly earlier or
later than the point where playback was interrupted.
