night, etc., when you play a DVD. This affects the output
from the DIGITAL OUT connectors only when "PCM" in
an audio component that conforms to Dolby Surroimd
(Pro Logic).
• NORMAL: when the player is connected to a normal
audio component.
"DIGITAL OUT" is set to "ON," and it affects the output
from the LINE OUT (AUDIO 1,2) connectors.
• STANDARD: Normally select this position.
• TV MODE: makes the low sound clear even if you
• The setting affects the following connectors:
-LINE OUT (AUDIO 1,2) connectors
-DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL, COAXIAL) connectors.
turned the volume down, so it is good for playing at
night. It is especially recommended when you listen to
the sound using the speakers of the TV.
• WIDE RANGE: It gives you the feeling of being at a live
performance. When you use high quality speakers, it is
more effective.
Note
When you play DVDs without the AUDIO DRC function, the
effect on the sound may be difficult to hear.

■DIGITAL OUT
Selects output signals via the DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL
and COAXIAL connectors.
• ON: Normally select this position. When you select
"ON," set "DOLBY DIGITAL" and "DTS." For details
on setting them, see "Setting for the Signal to the Digital
Output."
• OFF: when the player does not output the sound signals
via DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL and COAXIAL connectors,
if you select this position, the influence of the digital
circuit upon the analog one is minimum.
Notes
• When you play the sound tracks with 96 kHz sampling
frequency, the output signals from fhe DIGITAL OUT
(OPTICAL, COAXIAL) are converted to 48 kHz (sampling
frequency). Sampling Frequency stays at 96kHz only when the
signals are output from LINE OUT (AUDIO 1, 2) cormectors.
• When you select "OFF," You carmot set "DOLBY DIGITAL"
and "DTS."
Setting for the Signal to the Digital
Output
When you select "ON," set "EXDLBY DIGITAL" and
"DTS."
Switches the methods of outputting audio signals when
you cormect a digital component such as a receiver
(amplifier) having a digital connector, an audio
component having a built-in decoder (Dolby Digital or
DTS), a DAT or MD via the DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL or
COAXIAL connector using an optical or coaxial digital
connecting cord. For details on the connection, see pages
11 and 12.

Bit rate (page 37)
Value indicating the amount of video data compressed in
a DVD per second. The unit is Mbps (Mega bit per
second). 1 Mbps indicates that the data per second is
1,000,000 bits. The higher the bit rate is, the larger the
amount of data. However, this does not always mean that
you can get higher quality pictures.
Chapter (page 5)
Sections of a picture or a music piece on a DVD that are
smaller than titles. A title is composed of several chapters.
Each chapter is assigned a chapter number enabling you
to locate the chapter you want.
Dolby Digital (page 12)
Digital audio compression technology that the Dolby
Laboratories Corporation developed. This technology
conforms to 5.1-channel surround sound. The rear
channel is stereo and there is discrete subwoofer charmel
in this format. Dolby Digital provides the same 5.1
discrete channels of high quality digital audio found in
Dolby Digital cinema audio systems. The good channel
separation is realized because the all channel data is
recorded discrete and processed in digital.
Dolby Pro Logic (page 46)
Audio signal processing technology that Dolby
Laboratories Corporation developed for surroimd sound.
When the input signal has the surround component, the
Pro Logic process outputs the front, center and rear
signals. The rear charmel is monaural.
DTS (page 12)
Digital audio compression technology that the Digital
Theater Systems, Inc. developed. This technology
conforms to 5.1-charmel surroimd. The rear channel is
stereo and there is discrete subwoofer channel in this
format. DTS provides the same 5.1 discrete channels of
high quality digital audio found in DTS audio systems.
The good channel separation is realized because the all
channel data is recorded discrete and processed in digital.
The picture data uses the MPEG 2 format, one of the
worldwide standards of digital compression technology.
The picture data is compressed to about 1/40 of its
original size. The DVD also uses the variable rate coding
technology that changes the data to be allocated according
to the status of the picture.
The audio data is recorded in Dolby Digital as well as in
PCM, allowing you to enjoy more real audio presence.
Furthermore, various advanced fvmctions such as the
multi-angle, multilingual, and Parental Control fvmctions
are provided with the DVD.
Multi-angle function (page 31)
Various angles, or viewpoints of the video camera, for a
scene are recorded on some DVDs.
Multilingual function (page 14, 30, 41)
Several languages for the soimd or sub-titles in a picture
are recorded on some DVDs.
Parental Control (page 43)
A function of the DVD to limit playback of the disc by the
age of the users according to the limitation level in each
country. The limitation varies from disc to disc; when it
is activated, playback is completely prohibited, violent
scenes are skipped or replaced with other scenes and so
on.
. Playback Control (PBC) (page 20)
Signals encoded on VIDEO CDs (Version 2.0) to control
playback.
By using menu screens recorded on VIDEO CDs with PBC
functions, you can enjoy playing simple interactive
programs, programs with search functions, and so on.
Title (page 5)
The longest sections of a picture or a music piece on a
DVD; a movie, etc., for a picture piece on video software;
or an album, etc., for a music piece on an audio software.
Each title is assigned a title number enabling you to locate
the title you want.
DVD (page 4)
A disc that contains up to 8 hours of moving pictures even
though its diameter is the same as a CD.
The data capacity of a single-layer and single-sided DVD,
at 4.7 GB (Giga Byte), is 7 times that of a CD.
Furthermore, the data capacity of a dual-layer and single
sided DVD is 8.5 GB, a single-layer and double-sided
DVD 9.4 GB, and a dual-layer and double-sided DVD 17
GB.
56
Track (page 5)
Sections of a picture or a music piece on a CD or VIDEO
CD. Each track is assigned a track number enabling you to
locate the track you want.
VIDEO CD (page 4)
A compact disc that contains moving pictures.
The picture data uses the MPEG 1 format, one of the
worldwide standards of digital compression technology.
The picture data is compressed to about 1/140 of its
original size. Consequently, a 12 cm VIDEO CD can
contain up to 74 minutes of moving pictures.
VIDEO CDs also contain compact audio data. Soimds
outside the range of human hearing are compressed while
the sounds we can hear are not compressed. VIDEO CDs
can hold 6 times the audio information of conventional
audio CDs.
There are 2 versions of VIDEO CDs.
• Version 1.1: You can play only moving pictures and
sounds.
• Version 2.0: You can play high-resolution still pictures
and enjoy PBC fimctions.
This player conforms to both versions.
