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.
To set progressive scan mode, refer to page 110
• 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”.
Press [HDMI] to select the HDMI output mode. The output mode changes as follows every time [HDMI] is pressed.

Copyright protection system
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.
*HDMI: High Definition Multimedia Interface
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.
• When you change the connections, all devices should be turned off.
• Refer to the manual accompanying external devices for more information.

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.

About HDD
HDD is a special device which has high recording density
and is suited for long-time recording or high-speed
cueing but by contrast, has many factors which can cause
breakage. Use HDD on the premise that you should dub
the recorded programs to a DVD to protect your precious
videos.
HDD is a temporary storage location:
HDD is not a permanent storage location of the recorded
contents. Be sure to use it as a temporary storage location
until you watch the programs once, edit them, or dub
them to a DVD.
Be sure to dub (back up) data promptly if you find
abnormalities in HDD:
If there is mechanical trouble with the HDD, grinding or
other sounds may be heard or blocky noise may appear
on the image. If you continue to use as it is, deterioration
may continue and eventually the HDD may not be used
at all. If you notice these symptoms of a failing HDD,
promptly dub the data to a DVD. When an HDD fails,
recovery of recorded content (data) may be impossible.
About the remaining capacity of HDD recording time:
The on-screen indication of the possible recording time
left on HDD / DVD may differ from the actual recordable
time as this unit employs the variable bit rate encoding
system which varies the recording (storage) amount of
data in conformity with the amount of information on the
video.
Before recording to the HDD, ensure there is sufficient
space on the HDD by deleting unnecessary titles in
advance.
• 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.
Use this feature to make the unfinalized +VR mode discs
recorded on other unit recordable on this unit. When you
