Playing Dolby Digital (5.1 channel), DTS or MPEG audio
Connecting an amplifier with a Dolby Digital/DTS/MPEG Audio digital surround processor or a Dolby Digital/
DTS/MPEG Audio surround processor to your Unit’s coaxial digital jack provides richer and more powerful
audio play.

Digital Connection to an MD to Record a CD
Some Audio CDs and VIDEO CDs have a short silent section between musical tracks. When sound from discs
such as these is digitally recorded by connecting the Unit directly to a digital recorder (such as an MD player), the
music may be recorded continuously and track numbers may be lost.
■ Digital Connection to Audio Equipment or MD Player without a Dolby Digital Decoder
• Audio CD or VIDEO CD
Play the disc as you normally would, with the audio mode set to “L+R” (see page 89). With a digital
connection, audio of a disc recorded with DTS sounds abnormal in this case.
• DVD
With a digital connection, audio cannot be produced from a DVD recorded with Dolby Digital (5.1 channel),
Dolby Surround (Pro Logic), DTS or MPEG Audio, so you should use an analogue connection to play such
discs. Discs with linear PCM audio should play normally.
• This connection is not possible if the processor or amplifier to which you want to connect does not have a coaxial
digital input jack.

Setting the Channels
Your Unit can receive VHF channels 1A to E12 (US AIR 2 to 13), CATV/HYPER channels S1 to S41 and UHF
channels E21 to E69 (US AIR 14 to 78). Your Unit has 84 programmable channel positions, each of which can
be set to any of the broadcast and CATV/HYPER channels.
• Channel positions 13 through 83 will not be displayed when selected. These channel positions have been set
at the factory to be skipped.

PARENTAL Setup Setting
??
Certain discs come preset with country codes and parental level
settings that are defined for particular countries. DVDs equipped with
the parental lock function are rated according to their content. The rated
content allowed by a parental lock level and the way a DVD can be
controlled may vary from disc to disc. Some discs, for example, may let
you edit out violent scenes and replace them with scenes more suitable
for viewing by children. You can also use the parental lock to disable
playback of the DVD entirely.
This Unit supports the following parental level settings.
PARENTAL LEVEL .. Defines the parental level, which controls the types
of scenes that are played back from a disc.
CODE ..................... Allows selection of a country code available on a
disc.
• You can use the parental lock function only with DVDs that are equipped
with the parental lock feature.
• The parental level depends on countries. If you do not set the country
code correctly, it fails to work correctly.

When Dolby Digital is used to record the audio on a DVD disc, the
average overall volume level of the audio is relatively lower than that
produced by a VIDEO CD/Audio CD. This is to provide the widest
possible dynamic range. To counteract this, this Unit automatically
raises the overall average volume level of a disc recorded using Dolby

NTSC Tape Play Back on PAL TV
When you play back an NTSC tape on your Unit, it is possible to use a PAL or multi-system compatible TV.
However, please note the following:
• The picture will shrink vertically to some degree, as shown in the diagram,
but this does not indicate a malfunction in your TV or Unit.
• If your TV does not have a V-HOLD control, the picture may roll and be
unwatchable. However, if you use a TV with a V-HOLD control, you can
stop the rolling by adjusting the V-HOLD control and watch the picture.
• Horizontal noise bars may appear on the screen during special effect
playback (video search, still, slow, frame advance, and double speed playback), possibly accompanied by
discolouring.
• Although NTSC tapes can be played back into a PAL TV, those tapes cannot be dubbed by a PAL system
VCR connected to the AUDIO OUT and VIDEO OUT terminals of this product. Tapes recorded in this way
cannot be played back on PAL system VCRs.
• Set the Colour mode to AUTO or NTSC, and set the NTSC mode to PAL TV.
Full Auto Playback
(This function only works when AUTO RENTAL mode on the MODE selection screen is set to “OFF”.)
Full Auto Playback lets you enjoy playback with ease. When you insert a cassette with the erasure protection

end, the Unit automatically rewinds the tape, ejects it and turns off the power.
• If the erasure protection hole is covered, press ûPLAY after the power turns on automatically.
Auto Head Cleaning System
When the tape is inserted or ejected, this system automatically cleans the drum and heads with a special roller
before recording or playback begins, protecting the heads and drum from dirt and preserving beautiful picture
quality.
Auto Tracking Control System
This function automatically adjusts the tracking to match the recorded tape.
Auto tracking engages in the following cases:
• When you insert the cassette and begin playback.
• When you press CH ' / " at the same time.
• When the Unit has been playing back an unrecorded section of tape,
and then reaches a recorded tape segment.

Recording NICAM/IGR Multiplex Broadcasts
This Unit is capable of receiving NICAM multiplex broadcasts (PAL-I, B/G, D/K) and IGR multiplex broadcasts
(PAL-
B/G, D/K). NICAM multiplex broadcasts will be recorded in stereo/bilingual when the NICAM setting on the
OSD’s MODE is set to AUTO. For information on how to carry out NICAM setting (See “Mode Selection” on page 23).
IGR multiplex broadcasts will be recorded on stereo/bilingual. (The AUTO/OFF setting will not function.) This Unit
automatically records on two types of audio track.
Hi-Fi track:
Special rotary heads will be used to record an audio signal deep in the video track in Hi-Fi. Multiplex broadcasts fall into “stereo” and “bilingual” broadcasts and they will be automatically recorded on their respective
tracks.
Normal track:
Conventional analogue audio is always recorded on the normal track (mono sound) regardless of whether your
Unit is receiving a multiplex broadcasts or not.

• There are tapes, though small in number, which have a normal track that has been divided into two tracks. On such
tapes, stereo as well as bilingual audio are recorded on the normal track. If such a tape is played back on your Unit,
the tape’s stereo sound will be reproduced in monaural and its bilingual in both languages combined.
• When a cassette tape on which a NICAM multiplex broadcast has been recorded in stereo or bilingual mode is played
back by a VCR that is not a Hi-Fi VCR, only the sound on the normal track will be reproduced.
• When you select “OFF” for NICAM in the OSD MODE, the stereo and bilingual audio of a NICAM multiplex broadcast
will be fixed to the normal sound.

Playing MP3 Discs
This Unit is able to play CD-R or CD-RW discs recorded in MP3 format.
Regarding MP3 discs
• MP3 files are audio data compressed in MPEG1 Audio layer 3 file format. “MP3 files” have “.mp3” as extensions.
• Some files that have “.mp3” extensions or files that have not been recorded in MP3 format will produce noise
or cannot be played.
• Some discs cannot be played depending on the actual CD-R/CD-RW disc condition, the recording equipment and the disc’s recording.
• Data on the CD-R or CD-RW disc, which has not been recorded in MP3 format, audio tracks or has been
recorded in other file formats except MP3, cannot be played.
Playing MP3 discs
• Discs that have more than 1000 folders and files in total cannot be played.
• Some MP3 files are not played in the order they were recorded.
• The number of layers, which can be recognized, including files and folders, is maximum 8.
• Only the first session of a multi-session disc can be played.
• When both audio tracks and MP3 files are recorded on a disc, audio tracks will be played.
• Depending on the folder tree, reading MP3 files can take time.
(The more files there are, the longer the reading time. Therefore it is recommended to lower the number of
folders before recording.)
• Folder or track (file) names are limited to 8 characters. The folder / file names are displayed in half-size,
capital letters or half-size numbers. Folder or track (file) names that go over 8 characters will be abbreviated.
• Depending on the character or symbol, MP3 folders or files have their names replaced, for example:
SHARP_1 → SHARPO1, SHARP
• The playing time may not be correctly displayed during MP3 file playback.
• It is recommended to record data at a lower speed as data recorded at fast speed can produce noise and
may not be able to be played.
~
1 → SHARPN1, SHARP-1 → SHARPM1.
CAUTION
• It is impossible to make a digital copy by using a digital audio recording device which outputs sound from discs in MP3
format through the coaxial digital output jack of this Unit.
