Using the Auto MCACC setup for optimal surround sound

The Multichannel Acoustic Calibration (MCACC) system measures the acoustic characteristics of your listening area, taking into account ambient noise and testing for channel delay and channel level. After you have set up the microphone provided with your system, the receiver uses the information from a series of test tones to optimize the speaker settings and equalization (Acoustic Calibration

EQ) for your particular room.

• These test tones are loud; however, do not

• Press SHIFT+MCACC to cancel and revert to the previous Auto MCACC settings.

Note

1 • If the room environment is not optimal for the Auto MCACC setup (too much ambient noise, echo off the walls, obstacles blocking the speakers from the microphone) the final settings may be incorrect. Check for household appliances (air conditioner, fridge, fan, etc.), that may be affecting the environment and switch them off if necessary.

• Some older TVs may interfere with the operation of the mic. If this seems to be happening, switch off the TV during the Auto

MCACC setup. 2 If this doesn’t work, press SHIFT+MCACC, turn off the power, and check the problem indicated by the ERR message, then try the Auto MCACC setup again. 3If COMPLETE doesn’t appear, it is likely an error occurred during the setup. Please check all connections and try again. 4 See Listening with Acoustic Calibration EQ on page 16 to switch on/off Acoustic Calibration EQ. 5 The screen saver will appear after five minutes of inactivity.

If a USB ERR message lights in the display, it may mean that the power requirements of the USB device are too high for this player, or that the device is incompatible. Try the following:

• Switch the player off, then on again.

• Reconnecting the USB device with the player switched off.

• Selecting to another input source (like DVD/CD), then back to USB.

• Using a dedicated AC adapter (supplied with the device) for USB power.

If this doesn’t remedy the problem, it is likely your USB device is incompatible.

About DivX® VOD content

In order to play DivX VOD (video on demand) content on this player, you first need to register the player with your DivX VOD content provider. You do this by generating a DivX VOD registration code, which you submit to your

provider.

Important

• DivX VOD content is protected by a DRM (Digital Rights Management) system. This restricts playback of content to specific, registered devices.

• If you load a disc that contains DivX VOD content not authorized for your player, the message Authorization Error is displayed and the content will not play.

Some DivX VOD content may only be playable a fixed number of times. When you load a disc containing this type of DivX VOD content, the remaining number of plays is shown on-screen and you then have the option of playing the disc (thereby using up one of the remaining plays), or stopping. If you load a disc that contains expired DivX VOD content (for example, content that has zero remaining plays), the message Rental Expired is displayed.

If your DivX VOD content allows an unlimited number of plays, then you may load the disc into your player and play the content as often as you like, and no message will be displayed.

About HDMI

HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) supports both video and audio on a single digital connection for use with DVD players, DTV, set-top boxes, and other AV devices. HDMI was developed to provide the technologies of High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) as well as Digital Visual Interface (DVI) in one specification. HDCP is used to protect digital content transmitted and received by DVI-compliant displays.

Nederlands

Note

1 • An HDMI connection can only be made with DVI-equipped components compatible with both DVI and High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP). If you choose to connect to a DVI connector, you will need a separate adaptor (DVIHDMI) to do so. A DVI connection, however, does not support audio signals. Consult your local audio dealer for more information.

• Depending on the component you have connected, using a DVI connection may result in unreliable signal transfers.

• When you change the component connected to the HDMI output, you will also need to change the HDMI settings to match

the new component (see Video Output settings on page 29 to do this).

About control out connections

Many Pioneer components support SR CONTROL connections, by which you can use the remote controls of any connected components by aiming them at the sensor of just one component. When you use a remote control, the control signal is passed along the chain to the appropriate component. This can be useful when you have multiple components contained inside an entertainment center.

If you choose to use this feature, you must make sure that you also have at least one set of analog audio jacks connected to another component for grounding purposes.

• Using a cable with mono mini-plugs on either side (sold separately), connect the CONTROL IN jack on another Pioneer component to the CONTROL OUT jack on this unit.

This will allow you to control the other component by pointing its remote at this unit.

When this unit is connected to both another device and a plasma television, you can control all components by pointing their respective remote controls at the sensor for the plasma television.

Using and taking care of discs

Handling discs

Hold the disc by its edges when handling so as not to leave fingerprints, dirt or scratches on either side of the disc. Damaged or dirty discs can affect playback performance.

If a disc becomes marked with fingerprints, dust, etc., clean using a soft, dry cloth.

Wipe lightly from the center of the disc using straight strokes. Don’t wipe the disc surface with circular strokes.

If necessary, use a cloth soaked in alcohol, or a commercially available CD/DVD cleaning kit to clean a disc more thoroughly. Never use benzine, thinner or other cleaning agents such as those designed for cleaning vinyl records.

Storing discs

Avoid leaving discs in excessively cold, humid, or hot environments (including under direct sunlight). Don’t glue paper or put stickers onto the disc, or use a pencil, ball-point pen or other sharp-tipped writing instrument. These could all damage the disc.

Discs to avoid

Discs spin at high speed inside the player. If a disc is cracked, chipped, warped, or otherwise damaged, don’t risk using it in your player— you could end up damaging the unit.

This unit is designed for use with conventional, fully circular discs only. Pioneer disclaims all liability arising in connection with the use of shaped discs.

DVD Video regions

All DVD Video discs carry a region mark that indicates which region(s) of the world the disc is compatible with. Your DVD system also has a region mark (on the rear panel). Discs from incompatible regions will not play in this player. In this instance, the following message appears on-screen:

Incompatible disc region number Can’t play disc

Discs marked ALL play in any player.

Installation and maintenance

Hints on installation

We want you to enjoy using this system for years to come, so please bear in mind the following points when choosing a location:

Do...

 Use in a well-ventilated room.

 Place on a solid, flat, level surface, such as a

table, shelf or stereo rack.

Don’t...

 Use in a place exposed to high temperatures or

humidity, including near radiators and other heat-generating appliances.

 Place on a window sill or other place where the

system will be exposed to direct sunlight.

 Use in an excessively dusty or damp

environment.

 Place directly on top of an amplifier, or other

component in your stereo system that becomes hot in use.

 Use near a television or monitor as you may

experience interference — especially if the television uses an indoor antenna.

 Use in a kitchen or other room where the system

may be exposed to smoke or steam.

Page 43

HTZ363DVD_EN_WL.book 43 ページ２００７年２月３日　土曜日　午後３時１３分

Additional information 10

 Use on a thick rug or carpet, or cover with cloth

— this may prevent proper cooling of the system unit.

 Place on an unstable surface, or one that is not

large enough to support all four of the system unit’s feet.

Cleaning the pickup lens

The DVD player’s lens should not become dirty in normal use, but if for some reason it should malfunction due to dust or dirt, consult your nearest Pioneer authorized service center. Although lens cleaners are commercially available, we do not recommend using them since some may damage the lens.

Problems with condensation

Condensation may form inside the player if it is brought into a warm room from outside, or if the temperature of the room rises quickly. Although the condensation won’t damage the player, it may temporarily impair performance. Leave it to adjust to the warmer temperature for about an hour before switching on.

Moving the system unit

If you need to move the main unit, first remove a disc if there’s one in the player, then press  STANDBY/ON on the front panel to turn the system off. Wait for GOOD BYE to disappear

from the display, then unplug the power cord. Never lift or move the unit during playback — discs rotate at high speeds and may damage.

Screen sizes and disc formats

DVD-Video discs come in different screen aspects, ranging from TV programs, which are generally 4:3, to CinemaScope widescreen

movies

, w ith an aspect ratio of up to about 7:3.

Televisions also come in different aspect ratios; ‘standard’ 4:3 and widescreen 16:9.

Set to 4:3 (Letter Box), widescreen discs are shown with black bars top and bottom.

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.

English

FrançaisDeutsch

Italiano Español

Nederlands

Note

1 Unplugging the unit before GOOD BYE disappears from the display may cause the system to return to the factory settings. 2 Many widescreen discs override the system’s settings so that the disc is shown in letterbox format regardless of the setting. 3• Using the 16:9 (Wide) setting with a standard 4:3 TV, or one of the 4:3 settings with a widescreen TV, will result in distortion.

• 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.

• Some movie aspect ratios are wider than 16:9, so even with a widescreen TV, these discs will still play in a ‘letterbox’ style.
