≥To prevent the speakers from falling, do not place directly on top

of the television.

Subwoofer

Place to the right or left of the television, on the floor or a sturdy shelf so that it won’t cause vibration. Leave 10 cm at the rear for ventilation.

Caution

Hold the speakers by the sides. Applying pressure to the front net can damage the speaker.

e.g. [HT520]

Notes on speaker use

≥You can damage your speakers and shorten their useful life if you

play sound at high levels over extended periods.

≥Reduce the volume in the following cases to avoid damage.

– When playing distorted sound. – When the speakers are receiving howling from a record player,

noise from FM broadcasts, or continuous signals from an

oscillator, test disc, or electronic instrument. – When adjusting the sound quality. – When turning the unit on or off.

If irregular coloring occurs on your television

The supplied speakers are designed to be used close to a television, but the picture may be affected with some televisions and setup combinations.

If this occurs, turn the television off for about 30 minutes.

The television’s demagnetizing function should correct the problem. If it persists, move the speakers farther away from the television.

Caution

≥The main unit and supplied speakers are to be used only

as indicated in this setup. Failure to do so may lead to damage to the amplifier and/or the speakers, and may result in the risk of fire. Consult a qualified service person if damage has occurred or if you experience a sudden change in performance.

≥Do not attempt to attach these speakers to walls using

methods other than those described in this manual.

S-VIDEO OUT terminal

The S-VIDEO OUT terminal achieves a more vivid picture than the VIDEO OUT terminal by separating the chrominance (C) and luminance (Y) signals. (Actual results depend on the television.)

COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals

These terminals can be used for either interlace or progressive output and provide a purer picture than the S-VIDEO OUT terminal. Connection using these terminals outputs the color difference signals (P

B/PR) and luminance signal (Y) separately in

order to achieve high fidelity in reproducing colors. ≥The description of the component video input terminals depends

on the television or monitor (e.g. Y/P

B/PR, Y/B-Y/R-Y, Y/CB/CR).

Connect to terminals of the same color.

[The\United\Kingdom,\Continental\Europe\and\Russia]

≥When making this connection, select “Video/Y PB PR” or

“S-Video/Y PB PR” from QUICK SETUP (‹ page 14).

SCART (AV) terminal

To improve picture quality, you can change the video signal output from the SCART (AV) terminal from “Video” to either “S-Video” or “RGB” to suit the type of television you are using. Select “S-Video/ Y PB PR” or “RGB/No Output” from QUICK SETUP (‹ page 14).

To enjoy progressive video

≥Connect to the component video input terminals on a 480P

compatible television. (Video will not be displayed correctly if connected to an incompatible television.)

≥When playing NTSC discs, change video output mode to

“480P” (‹ page 23) or press [PROGRESSIVE] on the main unit so “PROG.” appears on the display.

All Panasonic televisions that have 480P input connectors are compatible. Consult the manufacturer if you have another brand of television.

[Note]

Output from this unit is interlace if you have connected to the television through the VIDEO OUT, S-VIDEO OUT or SCART (AV) terminal or when playing PAL discs, even if “PROG.” is on the display.

Tips for making WMA/MP3 and JPEG discs (For CD-R, CD-RW)

≥Discs must conform to ISO9660 level 1 or 2 (except for extended

formats).

≥This unit is compatible with multi-session but if there are a lot of

sessions it takes more time for play to start. Keep the number of sessions to a minimum to avoid this.

Naming folders and files

At the time of recording, prefix folder and file names with 3-digit numbers in the order you want to play them (this may not work at times). Files must have the extension: “.WMA” or “.wma” “.MP3” or “.mp3” “.JPG”, “.jpg”, “.JPEG” or “.jpeg”

e.g. [MP3]

root

001 group

001

003 group

001 track.mp3 002 track.mp3 003 track.mp3 002 group

001 track.mp3 002 track.mp3 003 track.mp3 004 track.mp3

001 track.mp3 002 track.mp3 003 track.mp3

[WMA]

≥You cannot play WMA files that are copy protected.

[MP3]

≥This unit is not compatible with ID3 tags. ≥Compatible sampling rate: 8, 11.02, 12, 16, 22.05, 24, 32, 44.1

and 48 kHz

[JPEG]

≥To view JPEG files on this unit:

– Take them on a digital camera that meets the DCF Standard

(Design rule for Camera File system) Version 1.0. Some digital cameras have functions that are not supported by the DCF Standard Version 1.0 like automatic picture rotation which may render a picture un-viewable.

– Do not alter the files in any way or save them under a different

name.

≥This unit cannot display moving pictures, MOTION JPEG and other

such formats, still pictures other than JPEG (e.g. TIFF) or play associated sound.

Glossary

Decoder

A decoder restores the coded audio signals on DVDs to normal. This is called decoding.

Dolby Digital

This is a method of coding digital signals developed by Dolby Laboratories. Apart from stereo (2-channel) audio, these signals can also be multi-channel audio. A large amount of audio information can be recorded on one disc using this method.

DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

This surround system is used in many movie theaters around the world. There is good separation between the channels, so realistic sound effects are possible.

Dynamic range

Dynamic range is the difference between the lowest level of sound that can be heard above the noise of the equipment and the highest level of sound before distortion occurs.

Frame still and field still

Frames are the still pictures that go together to make a moving picture. There are about 30 frames shown each second. One frame is made up of two fields. A regular television shows these fields one after the other to create frames. A still is shown when you pause a moving picture. A frame still is made up of two alternating fields, so the picture may appear blurred, but overall quality is high. A field still is not blurred, but it has only half the information of a frame still so picture quality is lower.

I/P/B

MPEG 2, the video compression standard adopted for use with DVD-Video, codes frames using these 3 picture types. I: Intra coded picture

This picture has the best quality and is the best to use when adjusting the picture.

P: Predictive coded picture

This picture is calculated based on past I or P-pictures.

B: Bidirectionally-predictive coded picture

This picture is calculated by comparing past and future I and P-pictures so it has the lowest volume of information.

Linear PCM (pulse code modulation)

These are uncompressed digital signals, similar to those found on CDs.

Playback control (PBC)

If a Video CD has playback control, you can select scenes and information with menus.

Sampling frequency

Sampling is the process of converting the heights of sound wave (analog signal) samples taken at set periods into digits (digital encoding). Sampling frequency is the number of samples taken per second, so larger numbers mean more faithful reproduction of the original sound.

Windows Media, and the Windows logo are trademarks, or registered trademarks of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and/or other countries.

WMA is a compression format developed by Microsoft Corporation. It achieves the same sound quality as MP3 with a file size that is smaller than that of MP3.
