Digital Audio Formats
DVD and CD discs can be encoded with several different digital audio formats. Generally,
the type of digital audio encoding is indicated
on the disc packaging.
• Dolby Digital. A 6-channel digital sur-
round sound format (called 5.1 channel)
for playing Dolby Digital encoded disks.
• DTS (Digital Theater Systems). An-
other 5.1 channel digital surround format
similar to Dolby Digital, but with wider
dynamic range and separation resulting
from a lower compression ratio.
• MPEG multichannel. Another digital
surround format for playing 5.1 channel
audio plus a 7.1 channel format rarely used
in home systems.
• MLP (Meridian Lossless Packing). A
high quality digital format for DVD Audio
with the compression ratio of about 2:1
supporting a 192kHz sampling rate and
24-bit resolution, allowing the PCM signal
to be recreated without loss.
• LPCM (Linear PCM). Uncompressed digi-
tal audio, the format used on CDs and most
studio masters.
The RDV-1080 automatically detects the type
of digital audio signal encoded on the disc
and activates the proper processing circuitry.
An indicator in the front-panel display illuminates to show the type of digital audio.
Remote Control
The RDV-1080 includes an RR-DV93 remote
control that operates many of the controls of
the RDV-1080. In addition, the remote operates basic features of many TV sets.
Remote Sensor
The remote sensor receives infrared signals
from the remote control. Do not cover or block
the sensor. It must be unobstructed or the remote control will not work properly.
The operation of the remote sensor can also
be affected if it is exposed to bright sunlight
or certain types of lighting (such as halogen
lights) that emit infrared light. In addition remote control functions may not work reliably
if the batteries in the RR-DV93 are weak.
NOTE
: To use the remote, aim it at the remote
sensor on the front-panel of the RDV-1080.
Remote Control Batteries
Two R03(LR03)/AAA size batteries (supplied)
must be installed before the remote control can
be used. Remove the cover on the back of the
RR-DV93. Install the batteries as shown in the
illustration in the battery well, then replace the
cover. When the batteries become weak, the
remote control won’t operate the RDV-1080
consistently. Installing fresh batteries should
eliminate the problem.
NOTE
: Remove the batteries from the remote
if it will not be used for a long period of time.
Do not leave run down batteries in the remote control; they can leak corrosive chemicals which will damage the unit.
TV/DVD Switch
The RR-DV93 remote can operate both the
RDV-1080 and your TV set. Slide the TV/DVD
switch to the left to activate the TV functions
and to the right to activate the DVD functions.
DVD Functions
When the TV/DVD switch is in the DVD position, the RR-DV93 duplicates the functions of
the RDV-1080 front-panel plus additional functions not available on the front-panel. When
a function is available on both the front-panel
and the remote, a number (referring to the frontpanel illustration) and a letter (referring to the
remote illustration) are shown in the instruc-
RDV-1080 DVD Audio/Video Player
14
tions. When only one identifier appears, that
control is available only on the front-panel or
the remote, but not both.
The DVD functions available on the remote are
detailed in the sections of this manual describing
operation of the RDV-1080.
Setting the TV code
To use the RR-DV93 with your TV, you need
to program the command set for your TV by
entering a 2-digit code from the list in Figure
3. This need only be done once.
Find your TV brand in the code list and note
the 2-digit code(s):
1. Press and hold the TV/VIDEO button
keeping it pressed during Steps 2 and 3

On-Screen Displays
The RDV-1080 displays a number interactive
screens on the TV monitor during normal operation. Many of these screens are used to
set up preferences and activate advanced features of the unit. These are described in detail later in this manual.
These screens provide access to a range of
settings and features. They appear automatically when certain remote control buttons are

activated by pressing the ON SCREEN button on the remote.
The On-Screen Displays are context-sensitive
– the specific screen depends on what kind
of disc is inserted and what the unit is doing.

Back-Panel Connections
This section describes the back-panel connections and settings that must be made during
installation of the RDV-1080. These include the
power connection, output connections to the
preamp or surround processor, selecting of the
video standard (PAL or NTSC) for your location, and optional external IR remote connections.
There are three types of output connections:
Analog audio: supplies 5.1 channels of de-
coded analog audio to the surround processor, using the RDV-1080’s built-in D/A converters and digital decoding. These outputs
take maximum advantage of the RDV-1080’s
ability to process a large number of audio
formats.
Digital audio: unprocessed digital audio signal for use with the surround processor’s D/A
converters and surround sound decoding.
Optical or Coaxial connections.
Video: sends the video signal from the DVD
player to the surround processor or TV set.
Composite, S-Video, or Component Video
connections.
NOTE
DVD player and the rest of system is turned
off when you make any of these connections.
RCA connections.
: To prevent loud noises, make sure the
Analog Audio Outputs
See Figure 4
A set of six RCA jacks, labeled ANALOG OUT
sends six channels of decoded analog audio
signals (front left, front right, rear left, rear right,
center, and subwoofer) from the RDV-1080
to the analog audio inputs of an audio surround processor preamplifier, integrated
amplifier, receiver or TV set.
To a surround processor with 5.1 channel inputs, use RCA audio cables to con-
nect each of these six outputs to the matching
input on the surround processor (front left to
front left, subwoofer to subwoofer, etc.)
To a stereo preamp, processor, or TV
set with 2-channel inputs, connect the
RDV-1080’s front left output to the left channel source input and the front right output to
the right channel input.
NOTE
: See the DOWN MIX Settings topic in
the Setting Preferences section of this manual
for information on matching the analog output signal to your preamp or processor.
Digital Outputs
See Figure 4
The RDV-1080 provides digital outputs (with
both optical and coaxial connectors) which
may be used in place of, or in addition to,
the analog audio output connections described
in the previous section. These digital outputs
provide a digital audio data stream, which
must be used with a processor that accepts a
digital signal and has its own D/A conversion
and digital surround decoding.
The RDV-1080 provides an optical output and
a coaxial output for the video signal. Use
whichever you prefer. If you chose the optical connection, remove the plastic cap protecting the connector and save it for future use.
Connect the appropriate cable (optical or 75
ohm coaxial) from the DIGITAL OUT connec-
of RDV-1080 to a digital

The VIDEO OUT connectors send the video

NTSC/PAL Switch
Various regions of the world use two different video standards. For example, the US uses
the NTSC standard while most countries in
Europe use the PAL standard. The output of
the RDV-1080 must be set to match the standard your TV accepts. Put the switch in the
left
position for use with NTSC video equip-
right
ment. Put it in the
PAL equipment.
NOTE
: This switch only relates to the hardware
position for the use with
configuration of your TV set and other components. Regardless of the setting, the
RDV-1080 can play DVD discs encoded in
either format, converting the signal to the format selected with the NTSC/PAL switch.
EXT REM IN/OUT Connectors
The EXT REM IN receives IR command codes
relayed from an infrared receiver (Xantech,
etc.). This feature is useful when the unit is installed in a cabinet and the front-panel IR sensor
is blocked. Consult your authorized Rotel dealer
for information on IR receivers and the proper
wiring of a plug to fit the connector.
The IR signals received by the RDV-1080 can
be relayed to other components using external IR emitters or hardwired connections from
the EXT REM OUT jack. For example, you might
place such a remote IR emitter in front of your
TV’s IR sensor to receive the TV commands from
the RR-DV93 remote.
See your authorized Rotel dealer for information
on IR repeater systems and connecting them
to the EXT REM OUT jack on the RDV-1080.

AC Power Input
It is best to plug the RDV-1080 directly into a
2-pin polarized wall outlet. Avoid the use of
extension cords.
Your RDV-1080 will automatically configure
itself for the proper AC line voltage ranging
from 110 volts to 240 volts at 50/60Hz. No
setting is required to match the unit to your
local voltage.
Plug the supplied cord into the AC INPUT receptacle on the back of the unit. After all connections have been made, plug the cord into
an appropriate AC wall outlet.
NOTE
: If you are away from home for an ex-
tended period of time, it is a sensible precaution to unplug your audio/video components.
Basic Operation
The RDV-1080 can be operated using its frontpanel buttons or from corresponding buttons
on the supplied infrared remote control. Specific instructions for each of the basic operating controls are detailed here. Additional features, as well as settings available from the
On-Screen Displays are described in later
