This manual describes the 20MC4304 and 27MC4304.These two models are different in
size, but operate identically.The 20MC4304 is illustrated in this manual.
Some explanations in this manual describe DVD Disc menus. DVD manufacturers set
the menus, which vary among DVDs. All DVDs do not have menus. If the DVD has a
menu, access it by pressing the DISC MENU button on the remote control.
Details are on page 51.
Setup Menus...
Some instructions explain how to use the setup menus of the TV/VCR/DVD. There are
two setup menus: one for the TV/VCR features while the unit is in TV/VCR mode, and
one for the Disc features while the unit is in DVD mode. Access the setup menus by
pressing SETUP on the remote control.
While in TV/VCR mode, you can select only the TV/VCR SETUP menu.
In DVD mode, you can select both the TV/VCR SETUP menu and the SETUP menu for
the unit’s DVD Player. Press the SETUP button once to select the TV/VCR SETUP
menu. Press SETUP twice to get to the DVD Player’s SETUP menu.
Even if you set a DVD feature in the unit’s SETUP menu, it will not be available if the
current Disc does not include that feature.
Available Disc Features...
All features described in this manual are not available on every Disc. If
the feature is not available on the Disc, you cannot use the
TV/VCR/DVD to make it available.
An “X” will appear in the top right corner of the screen if you try to
access a feature that is not available.
For example, some features are available only during play, while others
are available only if play is stopped. If you cannot access a feature, try
stopping or starting play, then try the feature again.

Follow the steps below to select closed captions for TV programming. Not all TV programs and commercials have closed
captions or all types of closed captions (second language,
half-screen text, etc.). If closed captioning is not broadcast,
you cannot receive it. This does not indicate a problem with
the TV/VCR/DVD. Check your TV program listings for
shows with closed captions.
If the TV/VCR/DVD receives poor quality television signals,
the captions may contain errors, or there might be no captions at all. Some possible causes of poor quality signals are:
● Automobile ignition noise
● Electric motor noise
● Weak signal reception
● Multiplex signal reception (ghosts or screen flutter)
● Playing poorly recorded or worn videotapes.

42 Setting V-Chip
TV Rating Settings
V-CHIP enables parents to prevent their children from
watching inappropriate material on TV. V-CHIP reads the
ratings for programming (except for news and sports programs, unedited movies on premium cable channels, and
Emergency Broadcast System signals), then denies access to
programming if the program’s rating meets the limitations
you select. In this case, a “PROTECTED PROGRAM by ...”
message appears on the TV screen.
If the “PROTECTED...” message appears during your TV
viewing, change to a channel that is not blocked. Then, you
can access the V-CHIP SETUP menu and change the settings
to allow all TV viewing.
Programming may be rated by the Motion Picture
Association of America (MPAA) or according to the
Television Parental Guidelines. To block any inappropriate
programming, set your limits in both MPAA RATING and
TV RATING.

The DVD Player will play MP3 and JPEG files that you
record and finalize on a CD-RW (Compact Disc-Rewritable)
or CD-R (Compact Disc-Recordable).
These Discs may contain pictures in a JPEG format or audio

on a CD-R for you. These pictures may be in JPEG format.
Or, you may copy or download MP3 music files from certain
legal Internet sites, then copy those files onto a CD-R or
CD-RW.
You cannot make or record such Discs using the
TV/VCR/DVD. See your computer manual for details on
recording.
Keep these characteristics in mind when making Discs you
intend to play on the DVD Player of the TV/VCR/DVD.
● Record MP3 Tracks at a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz or
48 kHz. Record in a constant bit rate between 112 kbps
and 320 kbps.

approximately two hours); best picture quality.
• LP (long play) – average tape speed; only playback in this speed is available
on this TV/VCR/DVD.
