Copy Protection
Many DVD discs are encoded with copy protection. Because of this, you should only connect your
DVD player directly to your TV, not to a VCR. Connecting to a VCR results in a distorted picture from copy-protected DVD discs.
This product incorporates copyright protection technology that is protected by methods claims of certain
U.S. patents and other intellectual property rights owned by Macrovision Corporation and other rights owners. Use of this copyright protection technology must be authorized by Macrovision Corporation, and is intended for home and other limited viewing uses only unless otherwise authorized by Macrovision Corporation. Reverse engineering or disassembly is prohibited.
Disc Recording Format
CD-R Discs
Depending on the disc recording device (CD-Recorder or PC ) and the condition of the disc, some CD-R discs
may not be playable. Use a 650MB/74 minute CD-R. Avoid CD-R media, as they may not be playable.
If possible, do not use CD-RW (Rewritable) media, as they may not be playable.
Only CD-Rs that are properly "closed" can be fully played. If the session is closed but the disc is left open,
you may not be able to fully play the disc.
CD-R MP3 Discs
Only CD-R discs with MP3 files in ISO 9660 or Joliet format can be played.
MP3 file names should be 8 characters or less in length and contain no blank spaces or special characters (. / = +).

Composite Video (Good Quality)
Connect the supplied video cable from the VIDEO OUT jack on the back panel of the system to the VIDEO IN jack on your television.
S-Video (Better Quality)

Note
any signal. See page 15 to select Progressive Scan.

P.SCAN
Unlike regular Interlace Scan, in which two fields of picture information alternate to create the entire picture (odd scan lines, then even scan lines), Progressive Scan uses one field of information (all lines displayed in one pass) to create a clear and detailed picture without visible scan lines.
Press STOP button.
1
When disc is played back, press the STOP button twice so that “STOP”, appears on the display.
Press and hold P.SCAN button on the remote control for over 5 seconds.
2
Pressing and holding the button for over 5 seconds will select "Progressive Scan" and "Interlace Scan"
repetitively.
When you select P.SCAN, "P.SCAN" will appear on the display
(Progressive Scan) Function
What is Progressive (or Non-Interlaced) Scanning?
Interlaced Scan (1 FRAME = 2 FIELDS)
In interlaced-scan video, a frame consists of two interlaced fields (odd and even), where each field contains every other horizontal line in the frame. The odd field of alternating lines is displayed first, and then the even field is displayed to fill in the alternating gaps left by the odd field to form a single frame. One frame, displayed every 1/30th of a second, contains two interfaced fields, thus a total of 60 fields are displayed every 1/60th of a second. The interlaced scanning method is intended for capturing a still object.
Note
This function works only on TVs equipped with component video inputs (Y, Pr, Pb) that support
Progressive Video. (It does not work on TVs with conventional component inputs, i.e., non-progressive scan TVs.) Depending on the brand and model of your TV, this function may not work.
Progressive Scan (FULL FRAME)
The progressive scanning method scans one full frame of video consecutively down the screen, line by line. An entire image is drawn at one time, as opposed to the interlaced scanning process by which a video image is drawn in a series of passes. The progressive scanning method is desirable for dealing with moving objects.
Selecting the Video Format
Press and hold NTSC/PAL button on the remote controller for over 5 seconds while the power is turned off.
"NTSC" or "PAL" will appear in the display.
At this time, press the NTSC/PAL button shortly to select between "NTSC" and "PAL". Each country has a different video format standard.
For normal playback, the video format of the disc must be the same as the video format of your TV.
