equipped with a polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

4. Ventilation – Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the appliance and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or covered.

This will prevent damage to the appliance due to lightning and power-line surges.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

DVF-9010 (En/E)

18. Power lines – An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

14. Abnormal smell – If an abnormal smell or smoke is detected, immediately turn the power OFF and unplug the appliance from the wall outlet. Contact your dealer or nearest service center.

VCD

Description of a feature that can be used with VIDEO CD.

The horizontal resolution of 500 lines or more is far above that of the S-VHS video (400 lines) and LaserDisc (430 lines). The picture quality is more noticeable when the screen size is larger.

The ultrahigh audio quality design can play discs with higher quality than CDs, such as a recording with 48 kHz sampling frequency and 16-bit quantization up to 96 kHz sampling frequency and 24-bit quantization. A recording with the 96 kHz sampling frequency can reproduce as high frequencies as above 40 kHz!

The information related to the player and disc can be displayed on the TV screen by pressing the ON SCREEN key of the remote control unit. The remote control unit also has a joystick for simple operations and settings of the player.

A Dolby Digital (AC-3) surround decoder and MPEG multi-channel surround decoder as well as 6 output channels are built in to bring movie theater-class powerfulness and presence to home theaters.

About the linear PCM audio

This is the signal recording format used with music CD discs. While music CDs use 44.1 kHz/16-bit recording format, DVDs use from 48 kHz/16-bit to 96 kHz/24-bit formats so they can reproduce audio with a higher quality than music CDs.

2 PCM

When a DVD with 48 kHz/20-bit or 24-bit or 96 kHz linear PCM recording is played, the signal is converted into a 48 kHz/16-bit signal and output at the digital outputs.

÷The digital output of the PCM audio becomes a 48 kHz/16-bit or lower

signal because of the consideration for the copyright.

When [2 Dolby Digital] is selected:

1 Bitstream (Factory setup)

(*1) The signal from the audio output of the player is converted into a 48 kHz/16-bit signal just like the signal output from the digital audio output. Therefore,

if you want to play high audio quality software with 48 kHz/20-bit or 24-bit or 96 kHz recording, do not connect the equipment such as an amplifier or decoder to the digital audio output (i.e. set [1 LPCM (DVD)] to “1 Off”) and connect the equipment directly to the audio output jacks.

Glossary

DVD: Digital Versatile Disc

A type of disc which contains recording of audio/video packaged media with high video and audio quality, such as a movie, featuring large recording capacity and digital signal processing capability.

VIDEO CD (VCD)

A type of CD which contains the recording of moving images. It compresses image information by about 1/120 and audio information by about 1/6 and accommodates up to 74 minutes of recording in a disc with the same diameter as ordinary music CD of 12 cm. Some VCDs do not have the P.B.C. compatibility and are capable of playback only, while some are P.B.C.-compatible and are capable of various special playback control operations. This player can play both of these VCDs.

MPEG: Moving Picture Expert Group (DVD, VCD)

This is an international standard for digital video and audio compression and decompression in media.

Dolby Digital (AC-3)

This is a digital audio compression technology developed by Dolby Laboratories. It is compatible with 5.1-channel surround audio as well as normal stereo (2-channel) audio and can accommodate a large amount of audio data efficiently in a disc.

DTS

Name of a digital surround system developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc.

GUI: Graphical User Interface

An operation method with which the user can interface the machine in an interactive manner with the help of displayed graphics.

Title menu/DVD menu (DVD)

Some DVDs display more than one title in a screen. This screen is referred to as the title menu. The DVD menu is the item display (menu screen) for use in setting operations. The DVD menu can be recalled any time during playback to perform settings according to the current software, including the audio switching between Dolby Digital and PCM, switching of language used in the subtitles and spoken voice.

Track/track number (CD, VCD)

DVF-9010 (En/E)

A track is also a section of video and audio recorded in a disc. The numbers assigned to individual tracks are referred to as the track numbers. With most of music CDs, a track is assigned to a piece of music. However, with a VCD, the sections of the contents do not always correspond to the assigned tracks. As (special) playback functions such as skipping and programming of ordinary CDs are based on track number data, such playback functions are sometimes impossible with some VCDs.

TOC: Table Of Contents (CD, VCD)

The TOC consists of information on the number of tracks and playing time and corresponds to the table of contents of a book. In addition to audio (and video) data, all discs contain the recording of TOC data in the beginning of disc.

P.B.C.: Play-Back Control (VCD)

When a VIDEO CD carries “Play Back Control capable” or similar message on the disc or jacket, desired scenes and information can be played back in an interactive manner using a hierarchical structure while viewing the menu screens displayed on the TV screen.

Aspect ratio

This is the ratio between the horizontal and vertical sizes of the picture displayed on the TV screen. The aspect ratio of a standard-screen TV is 4:3 and that of a wide-screen or HDTV is 16:9.

Pan & scan (DVD)

A method of displaying a wide-screen picture, recorded with an aspect ratio of 16:9, on a standard, 4:3 TV screen by trimming parts of the picture. In general, the trimmed parts of a panned & scanned screen is determined according to the player component. However, the DVD discs can also record the specification by the software producer related to the trimmed positions.

Preparations

Operations

Title/title number (DVD)
