Supplied cables used in this connection are as follows:

• RCA audio cable (L/R) x 1

• RCA video cable x 1 Please purchase the rest of the necessary cables at your local store.

Note for HDMI connection

• A simple 1-cable connection with a device having an HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) connector allows digital transfer of the digital images of DVD-video and other devices.

When connecting with an HDMI cable, the audio signal will be output as the digital audio signal simultaneously,

so you do not need the analog audio connection described above.

Note

• Connect this unit directly to the TV. If the RCA audio/video cables are connected to a VCR, pictures may be distorted due to the copy protection system.

• You will not be able to hear the sound being output from DVD if you are not connecting DVD AUDIO OUT when you made either S-video or component video out connection.

To set progressive scan mode, refer to page 99

• This unit is compatible with the progressive scan system. The feature provides you with the higher quality images than the traditional output system does. To utilize this feature, you must set “Progressive Scan” to “ON”.

“Stream” in “Dolby Digital” setting. Refer to pages 101-102 for “HDMI” setting.

To play back the digital video images of a DVD via an HDMI connection, it is necessary that both the player and the display device (or an AV amplifier) support a copyright protection system called HDCP (high-bandwidth digital content protection system). HDCP is copy protection technology that comprises data encryption and authentication of the connected AV device. This unit supports HDCP. Please read the operating instructions of your display device (or AV amplifier) for more information.

Note

• When using HDCP-incompatible display device, the image will not be viewed properly.

• Among the devices that support HDMI, some devices can control other devices via the HDMI connector; however, this unit cannot be controlled by another device via the HDMI connector.

• The audio signals from the HDMI connector (including the sampling frequency, the number of channels and bit length) maybe limited by the device that is connected.

• Among the monitors that support HDMI, some do not support audio output (for example, projectors). In connections with device such as this unit, audio signals are not output from the HDMI output connector.

• When this unit’s HDMI connector is connected to a DVI-D compatible monitor (HDCP compatible) with an HDMIDVI converter cable, the signals are output in digital RGB.

Note

• It may take up to 5 to 7 seconds to switch the digital TV channels.

• In digital TV broadcasting, 2 or more channels, called minor channels, are simultaneously broadcast on one main channel, called major channel.

About digital TV broadcasting:

With its high definition broadcast, digital broadcasting far surpasses analog broadcasting in both its picture and sound quality.

What is the minor channel?

By using high compression technology, digital broadcasting offers a service that enables multiple signals to send simultaneously.

Therefore, you can select more than one program per major channel since digital broadcasting technology distinguishes between multiple channels broadcast by a signal network.

Video/sound quality

• The recording time is only an estimate. The actual recording time may differ.

• The audio and video quality gets poorer as the recording time becomes longer.

• Each time [REC MODE] is pressed, recording mode and its allowed recording time will be displayed.

Note

• This unit cannot record to CD-RW or CD-R.

• All high definition pictures will be down converted to the standard definition pictures when they are recorded on this unit.

• DVD+RW/+R, DVD-RW/-R and CD-RW/-R recorded on a personal computer or a DVD or CD recorder may not be played back if the disc is damaged or dirty or if there is condensation on the player’s lens.

• If you record a disc using a personal computer, even if it is recorded in a compatible format it may not be played back because of the settings of the application software used to create the disc. (Check with the software publisher for more detailed information.)

• Since the recording is made by the VBR (variable bit rate) method, depending on the picture you are recording, the actual remaining time for recording may be a little shorter than the remaining time displayed on the TV screen.

• You cannot record copy-protected program using this unit. (Copy-protected signal is included in DVDvideo or some satellite broadcasts.)

• You cannot record “copy-once only” program on DVD.

Hints for Timer Recording

TIMER RECORDING

• If there is a power failure or this unit has been unplugged for more than 30 seconds, the clock setting and all timer programming will be lost.

• If a disc is not inserted, "DVD" on the front panel display flashes and timer recording cannot be performed. In some cases,

will appear momentarily around the start time as the unit attempts to record. Please insert a recordable disc.

• If a cassette tape with a erase-protection tab is not in the cassette compartment or there is no cassette tape in the cassette compartment, “VCR” on the front panel display flashes and timer recording cannot be performed. Please insert a recordable cassette tape.

• If a cassette tape ends during the timer recording, the unit will automatically stop, eject the cassette tape, and turn itself off. To continue recording, insert a recordable tape.

• When all the timer recordings are completed,

flashes. Press [TIMER SET] to release the unit from the timer standby mode.

• If both DVD and VCR are timer programmed, you cannot use any functions for either unit during timer standby or timer recording. If you want to use functions other than recording under such condition, cancel timer recording by pressing [TIMER SET] during timer standby or stop recording by pressing [STOP C] during timer recording.

• To cancel the timer standby mode, press [TIMER SET].

• When the starting and the ending time are the same, the length of the recording will be set for 24 hours. When the disc or cassette tape becomes full during the recording, the unit turns itself off.

• If the starting time is earlier and the ending time is later than the current time, the recording will start right after you press [TIMER SET] at step 9 on page 43.

• You cannot change the audio language for the timer recording of digital TV broadcasting.

• The timer recording cannot be performed in DVD and VCR at the same time. If you set 2 programmings with the same channel and time in both devices, the program which is set first will have the priority.

The Priority of Overlapped Settings

• Timer program which has the earlier start time will be placed first in the timer program list, and be given priority over the programs with the later start time when timer programs overlap.

• When timer programs overlap, the first 2 minutes (at the longest) of the later recording will be cut off.

• When 2 or more timer programs have the same start time, the program set first will be given priority.

• A timer recording of lower priority will be canceled or start from the middle.

• Check the overlapped timer programmings and change the priority if necessary.

When the starting time is the same:

A program set previously (PROG. A) has priority.
