form on the outside of the glass. Similarly, moisture
may condense on the lens of the optical pickup, one of
the most important parts inside this unit.
• Moisture condensation can occur in the following situations:
— The unit is moved from a cold place to a warm
place.
—A heater is turned on, or cold air from an air con-
ditioner is hitting the unit.
— In the summer, when this unit is moved from an
air conditioned room to a hot and humid place.

picture quality. Some TV manufacturers label their
component video inputs differently.
S-Video provides better picture quality than composite video.
Composite video can be found on virtually all TVs,
VCRs, and video equipment.
SCART connections carry audio and video (composite, S-Video, RGB) all in one cable.
Optical digital audio connections provide better
audio quality than analog connections.
Coaxial digital audio connections provide better
audio quality than analog connections.
RCA/phono analog audio connectors can be found
on virtually all AV components.

• This player is equipped with copy protection technology. Do not connect this player to your TV via a VCR
using AV cables, as the picture from this player will
not appear properly on your TV. (This player may also
not be compatible with some combination TV/VCRs
for the same reason; refer to the manufacturer for more
information.)
• When connecting to your TV as shown above, do not
set the “Component Out” setting (page 41) to “Progressive.”
1. Connect the VIDEO OUTPUT and AUDIO OUT-
PUT ANALOG L/R jacks to a set of A/V inputs
on your TV.
Use the supplied AV cable (RCA/phono), connecting
the red and white plugs to the audio outputs and the
yellow plug to the video output. Make sure you
match up the left and right audio outputs with their
corresponding inputs for correct stereo sound.
See the following page if you want to use a component or S-Video cable for the video connection.
2. Connect the supplied AC power cord to the AC
INLET, then plug into a power outlet.

Notes:
• Before unplugging the player from the power outlet,
make sure you first switch it into standby using either
the front panel STANDBY/ON button, or the remote
controller, and wait of the “GOOD BYE” message to
disappear from the player’s display.
•For the above reasons, do not plug this player into a
switched power supply found on some amplifiers and
AV receivers.
Important:
• When Component Out (page 41) is set to Progressive,
there is no video output from the VIDEO OUTPUT
(composite) and S VIDEO OUTPUT jacks.
• If you want to display video on more than one monitor
simultaneously, make sure the player is set to Interlace.
• If you connect a TV that is not compatible with a progressive scan signal and switch the player to progressive, you will not be able to see any picture at all. In
this case, switch everything off and reconnect using
the supplied video cable, then switch back to Interlace
(see page 18).

This player is compatible with progressive video Macro
Vision System Copy Guard.
Consumers should note that not all high-definition television sets are fully compatible with this product and
may cause artifacts to be displayed in the picture. In case
of 525 progressive scan picture problems, it is recommended that the user switch the connection to the “standard definition’ output (Interlace). If there are questions
regarding our TV set compatibility with this model,
please contact our customer service center.

Connecting Your TV
• Connect the DVD Player to the TV directly. If you
connect the DVD Player to a VCR, TV/VCR combination, or video selector, the playback picture may be
distorted as DVD videos are copy protected.
Using S-Video
If your TV (or other equipment) has an S-Video input,
you can use this instead of the standard (composite) output for a better quality picture.
• Use an S-Video cable (supplied) to connect the S
VIDEO OUTPUT to an S-Video input on your TV (or
monitor or AV receiver).
Line up the small triangle above the jack with the same
mark on the plug before plugging in.

Connecting the DV-SP402E—Continued
Connecting to an AV Receiver
Although you can reproduce the DVD Player’s sound
from the TV speakers with the connections on page 17,
connecting with an amplifier provides you high quality
dynamic sounds.
To reproduce Dolby Digital surround and DTS surround
sound, you need to connect to an amplifier with a Dolby
Digital and DTS decoder respectively.
Before connecting
• When you connect the DVD Player to the amplifier, be
sure to turn off the power and unplug both units from
the mains before making any connections. Otherwise,
the speakers may be damaged.
• Connect the plugs securely.
To enjoy surround sound you need to connect this player
to an AV receiver using a digital output. This player has
both coaxial and optical digital jacks; use whichever is
convenient.
In addition to a digital connection, we recommend also
connecting using the stereo analog connection.
To record the audio from a CD-R disc etc. to a cassette
or CDR recorder that’s connected to the AV receiver, and
when your AV receiver has Zone2, you must connect the
DV-SP402E’s analog audio outputs to the AV receiver.
You’ll probably also want to connect a video output to
your AV receiver. You can use any of the video outputs
available on this player (the illustration shows a standard
(composite) connection).
This enables you to listen to surround sound.
For an optical connection, use an optical cable (not sup-
plied) to connect the “OPTICAL DIGITAL AUDIO
OUTPUT” jack to an optical input on your AV receiver.
For a coaxial connection, use a coaxial cable (similar to
the supplied video cable) to connect the “COAXIAL
DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT” jack to a coaxial input on
your AV receiver.
2. Connect the ANALOG AUDIO OUTPUT L/R
and VIDEO OUTPUT jacks on this player to a set
of analog audio and video inputs on your AV
receiver.

When watching Dolby Digital DVDs at low volume, it’s
easy to lose the quieter sounds completely—including
some of the dialog. Switching Audio DRC (Dynamic
Range Control) to on can help by bringing up the quieter
sounds, while controlling loud peaks.
How much of a difference you hear depends on the material you’re listening to. If the material doesn’t have wide
variations in volume, you may not notice much change.
Notes:
• Audio DRC is only effective with Dolby Digital audio
sources.
• Audio DRC is only effective through the digital output
when Digital Out is set to On, and Dolby Digital Out
is set to Dolby Digital > PCM (see “Digital Audio Out

To give you some control over what your children watch
on your DVD player, some DVD-Video discs feature a
Parental Lock level. If your player is set to a lower level
than the disc, the disc won’t play.
Some discs also support the Country Code feature. The
player does not play certain scenes on these discs,
depending on the Country Code you set.
Notes:
• Not all discs use Parental Lock, and will play without
requiring the password first.
• If you forget your password, you’ll need to reset the
player to register a new password. (see page 45)

Additional information
Screen sizes and disc formatsResetting the player
DVD-Video discs come in several different screen aspect
ratios, ranging from TV programs, which are generally
4:3, to Cinema- Scope widescreen movies, with an
aspect ratio of up to about 7:3.
Televisions, too, come in different aspect ratios; “standard” 4:3 and widescreen 16:9.
Widescreen TV users
If you have a widescreen TV, the TV Screen setting
(page 41) of this player should be set to “16:9 (Wide)”.
When you watch discs recorded in 4:3 format, you can
use the TV controls to select how the picture is presented. Your TV may offer various zoom and stretch
options; see the instructions that came with your TV for
details.
Please note that some movie aspect ratios are wider than
16:9, so even though you have a widescreen TV, these
discs will still play in a “letter box” style with black bars
at the top and bottom of the screen.
Standard TV users
If you have a standard TV, the “TV Screen” setting
(page 41) of this player should be set to “4:3 (Letter
Box)” or “4:3 (Pan&Scan)”, depending on which you
prefer.
Set to “4:3 (Letter Box)”, widescreen discs are shown
with black bars top and bottom.
Use this procedure to reset all the player’s settings to the
factory default.

Switch the player into standby.
Using the front panel buttons, hold
down the button and press
STANDBY/ON to switch the player
back on.
Set to “4:3 (Pan&Scan)”, widescreen discs are shown
with the left and right sides cropped.
Although the picture looks larger, you don’t actually see
the whole picture.
Please note that many widescreen discs override the
player’s settings so that the disc is shown in letter box
format regardless of the setting.
Note:
• Using the “16:9 (Wide)” setting with a standard 4:3
TV, or either of the “4:3” settings with a widescreen
TV, will result in a distorted picture.

Setting the TV system
The default setting of this player is “AUTO”, and unless
you notice that the picture is distorted when playing
some discs, you should leave it set to “AUTO”. If you
experience picture distortion with some discs, set the TV
system to match your country or region’s system. Doing
this, however, may restrict the kinds of disc you can
watch. The table below shows what kinds of disc are
compatible with each setting (“AUTO” , “PAL” and
“NTSC”).

Glossary
Analog audio
An electrical signal that directly represents sound. Compare this to digital audio which can be an electrical signal, but is an indirect representation of sound. See also
“Digital audio”.
Aspect ratio
The width of a TV screen relative to its height. Conventional TVs are 4:3 (in other words, the screen is almost
square); widescreen models are 16:9 (the screen is
almost twice as wide as it is high).
Digital audio
An indirect representation of sound by numbers. During
recording, the sound is measured at discrete intervals
(44,100 times a second for CD audio) by an analog-todigital converter, generating a stream of numbers.
On playback, a digital-to-analog converter generates an
analog signal based on these numbers. See also “Sampling frequency” and “Analog audio”.
Dolby Digital
Using a maximum of 5.1 channels of audio,
this high quality surround system is used in many of the
finer movie theaters around the world.
The on-screen display shows which channels are active,
for example showing 3/2.1. The 3 being the two front
channels and the center channel; the 2 being the surround
channels, and the .1 being the LFE channel.
DRM
DRM (digital rights management) is a type of server
software developed to enable secure distribution of paid
content over the web, recently incorporated by WMA
(Windows Media Audio).
DTS
DTS stands for Digital Theater Systems. DTS is
a surround system different from Dolby Digital that has
become a popular surround sound format for movies.
Dynamic range
The difference between the quietest and loudest sounds
possible in an audio signal (without distorting or getting
lost in noise).
Dolby Digital and DTS soundtracks are capable of a very
wide dynamic range, delivering dramatic cinema-like
effects.
EXIF (Exchangeable Image File)
A file format developed by Fuji Photo Film for digital
still cameras. Digital cameras from various manufacturers use this compressed file format which carries date,
time and thumbnail information, as well as the picture
data.
File extension
A tag added to the end of a filename to indicate the type
of file. For example, “.mp3” indicates an MP3 file.
ISO 9660 format
International standard for the volume and file structure
of CD-ROM discs.
JPEG
A file format used for still images, such as photographs
and illustrations. JPEG files are identified by the file
extension “.jpg” or “.JPG”. Most digital cameras use this
format.
MP3
MP3 (MPEG1 audio layer 3) is a compressed audio file
format. Files are recognized by their file extension
“.mp3” or “.MP3”.
MPEG audio
An audio format used on Video CDs and some DVD
discs. This unit can convert MPEG audio to PCM format
for wider compatibility with digital recorders and AV
amplifiers. See also “PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)”.
MPEG video
The video format used for Video CDs and DVDs. Video
CD uses the older MPEG-1 standard, while DVD uses
the newer and much better quality MPEG-2 standard.
PBC (PlayBack Control) (Video CD only)
A system of navigating a Video CD through on-screen
menus recorded onto the disc. Especially good for discs
that you would normally not watch from beginning to
end all at once—karaoke discs, for example.
PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)
The most common system of encoding digital audio,
found on CDs and DAT. Excellent quality, but requires a
lot of data compared to formats such as Dolby Digital
and MPEG audio. For compatibility with digital audio
recorders (CD, MD and DAT) and AV amplifiers with
digital inputs, this unit can convert Dolby Digital, DTS
and MPEG audio to PCM. See also “Digital audio”.
Regions (DVD-Video only)
These associate discs and players with particular areas of
the world. This unit will only play discs that have compatible region codes. You can find the region code of
your unit by looking on the rear panel. Some discs are
compatible with more than one region (or all regions).
Sampling frequency
The rate at which sound is measured to be turned into
digital audio data. The higher the rate, the better the
sound quality, but the more digital information is generated. Standard CD audio has a sampling frequency of
44.1kHz, which means 44,100 samples (measurements)
per second. See also “Digital audio”.
WMA
WMA is short for Windows Media Audio and refers to
an audio compression technology developed by
Microsoft Corporation. WMA data can be encoded by
using Windows Media Player version 8 or Windows
Media Player for Windows XP.
