once. DVD +RW and DVD -RW are two standards for
re-writable media, meaning the DVD content can be
erased and re-recorded. Single-sided discs can hold
4.38 Gigabytes and double-sided discs hold twice as
much. There are no dual layer single sided recordable
discs.

minutes (700 MB disc) of MPEG-1 full-motion video
along with quality stereo sound.

compression. MPEG-1 is used in encoding video for
VCD and provides for multichannel surround sound
coding such as PCM, Dolby Digital, DTS and MPEG
audio.

version 2.0 disc formats. PBC allows you to interact
with the system via menus, search functions, or other
typical computer-like operations. Moreover, still
pictures of high resolution can be played if they are
included in the disc. Video CDs not equipped with
PBC (Version 1.1) operate in the same way as audio
CDs.
Title (DVD video discs only)
A title is generally a distinct section of a DVD disc. For
example the main feature could be title 1, a documentary describing how the film was made could be title 2,
and cast interviews could be title 3. Each title is
assigned a reference number enabling you to locate it
easily.
Chapter (DVD video discs only)
A chapter is a segment of a title such as a scene in a
film or one interview in a series. Each chapter is
assigned a chapter number, enabling you to locate the
chapter you want. Depending on the disc, chapters
may not be recorded.
Scene (VCD)
On a video CD with PBC (playback control) functions,
moving pictures and still pictures are divided into
sections called “scenes”. Each scene is displayed in
the menu screen and assigned a scene number,
enabling you to locate the scene you want. A scene is
composed of one or several tracks.
Track
A distinct element of audiovisual information, such as
the picture or sound track for a specific language
(DVD), or a musical piece on a video or audio CD.

DVD/VCR Combi receiver to the COMPONENT
VIDEO INPUT(Y Pb Pr) jacks on the TV using the
SCART to RCA cable (Optional).
If your television is a high-definition or “digital
ready” television, you may take advantage of the
DVD/VCR Combi receiverprogressive scan output
for the highest video resolution possible.
If your TV does not accept the Progressive Scan
format, the picture will appear scrambled if you try
Progressive Scan on the DVD/VCR Combi

•
Be sure to match the speaker cable to the appropriate terminal on the components: + to + and – to –. If the cables are
reversed, the sound will be distorted and will lack base.
• If you use front speakers with low maximum input rating, adjust the volume carefully to avoid excessive output on the
speakers.
• Do not remove the front cover of supplied speaker.

Speaker Positioning
In the case of normal position use the 6 speakers (2 front speakers, centre speaker, 2 rear speakers and
subwoofer).
If you want to play the excellent bass sound, DTS digital surround or Dolby Digital surround, you should connect
a subwoofer.
• Front speakers
According to your listening position set up the speakers for equal distance. And by hearing position set up the
interval between speakers to 45 degree.
• Centre speaker
The centre speakers and front speakers are ideally the same height. But normally place it above or below the
television.
• Rear speakers
Place left and right behind the listening area. These speakers recreate sound motion and atmosphere required
for surround sound playback. For best results, do not install the rear speakers too far behind the listening
position and install them at or above the level of the listener’s ears. It is also effective to direct the rear speakers towards a wall or ceiling to further disperse the sound.
In the case of a smaller room size, if the audience is near to the rear wall set the rear speakers opposite each
other, and set the rear speakers above 60 - 90 cm than the listener’s ears.
• Subwoofer
This can be placed in any front position.

Mini Glossary for Audio Stream
& Surround mode
Allows you to enjoy 5.1(or 6) discrete channels of high
quality digital audio from DTS program sources such as
discs, DVD and compact discs, etc.bearing the trademark.
DTS Digital Surround delivers up to 6 channels of transparent audio(which means identical to the original masters) and
results in exceptional clarity throughout a true 360 degree
sound field. The term DTS is a trademark of DTS
Technology, LLC. Manufactured under license from DTS
Technology, LLC.
The Dolby Digital surround format lets you enjoy up to 5.1
channels of digital surround sound from a Dolby Digital program source. If you play DVDs with “ ” mark, you can
enjoy even better sound quality, greater spatial accuracy,
and improved dynamic range.
Use this mode when playing movie or Dolby Digital 2 channel which carries the “ ” mark. This mode provides the
effect of being in a movie theatre or live concert house-an
effect with an intensity which can only be obtained through
DOLBY PRO LOGIC SURROUND. The effect of the
front/back/left/right movement of the sound image, as well as
the sense of fixed position in the sound image, is much clearer and more dynamic than before.
(II)
Dolby Pro Logic II creates five full-bandwidth output channels from two-channel sources. This is done using an
advanced, high-purity matrix surround decoder that extracts
the spatial properties of the original recording without adding
any new sounds or tonal colorations.
MOVIE mode:
The Movie mode is for use with stereo television shows and
all programs encoded in Dolby Surround. The result is
enhanced soundfield directionality that approaches the quality
of discrete 5.1-channel sound.
MUSIC mode:
The Music mode is for use with any stereo music recordings,
and provides a wide and deep sound space. The Music mode
includes controls that allow the sound to be tailored to individual listening tastes.
MATRIX mode:
The Matrix mode is the same as the Music mode except that
the directional enhancement logic is turned off. It may be used
to enhance mono signals by making them seem “larger.” The
Matrix mode may also find use in auto systems, where the
fluctuations from poor FM stereo reception can otherwise
cause disturbing surround signals from a logic decoder. The
ultimate “cure” for poor FM stereo reception may be simply to
force the audio to mono.
3D SURROUND
This unit can produce a 3D Surround effect, using 3D
Surround Sound technology, which simulates multi-channel
audio playback from two conventional stereo speakers
instead of the five or more speakers normally required to listen to multi-channel audio from a home theatre. This feature
works with DVD discs encoded with Dolby Pro Logic and
Dolby Digital audio tracks.
BYPASS
Software with multichannel surround audio signals is played
according to the way it was recorded.
Sound Mode
You can enjoy surround sound simply by selecting
one of the pre-programmed sound fields according to
the
program you want to listen to.
Press SOUND MODE repeatedly until the sound
mode you want appears in the display window as
below.
Each time you press SOUND MODE button, the
sound mode is changed in the following order;
PRO LOGIC → PL2 MOVIE → PL2 MUSIC → PL2 MATRIX
→ 3D SURROUND → BYPASS
When DVD is inserted.
You can change the stream of DVD (Dolby Digital, DTS,
PCM, etc) by pressing the AUDIO button on the remote dur-
ing playback.
Although the DVD contents differ from disc to disc, the following explains the basic operation when this feature is
used.
Each time you press AUDIO button, the sound mode of DVD
is changed as the following order;
→→→
For your reference
•
The DVD/VCR Combi receiverr memorizes the
last mode
settings for each source individually.
•
You can identify the encoding format of
program software by looking at its packaging.
- Dolby Digital discs are labeled with the logo.
- Dolby Surround encoded programs are labeled
with the logo.
- DTS Digital Surround discs are marked with DTS.
Note
•
When you play sound tracks with 96kHz sampling
frequency, the output signals will be converted to 48kHz
(sampling frequency).
