Notes

Do not place the surround speakers on top of a TV. This may cause distortion of the colors in the TV screen.

If you place the center speaker on the unit, be sure to place it at the front side of the unit.

Place the subwoofer on solid floor where resonance is unlikely to occur so that a better bass reproduction could be obtained.

Always place the subwoofer vertically, keeping it a few centimeters away from the wall.

If the subwoofer is placed in the center of a room, the bass could be extremely weakened. This is due to the influence of the standing wave of the room. If this happens, move the subwoofer away from the center of the room or eliminate the cause of the standing wave, by placing a bookshelf against the wall, etc.

Tip

You can enjoy 5.1 channel surround sound while playing a DVD VIDEO. To adjust the speaker volume and level, see page 52.

To enjoy multi-channel source sound and Dolby surround effects, adjust the speakers distance and level, see “Speakers settings” on page 49.

About MP3 audio tracks and JPEG image files

What is MP3/JPEG?

MP3 is audio compression technology that satisfies the ISO/MPEG regulations. JPEG is image compression technology.

Discs that the system can play back

You can play back DATA CDs (CD-ROMs/ CD-Rs/CD-RWs) that contains MP3 audio tracks in MPEG 1 Audio Layer 3 and JPEG image files. However, the discs must be recorded according to ISO 9660 Level 1, Level 2 or Joliet in expansion format for the system to recognize the tracks (or files). You can also play back discs recorded in Multi Session.

Refer to the instructions supplied with the CD- R/CD-RW drives and the recording software (not supplied) for details on the recording format.

About the Multi Session discs

If MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image files are recorded in the first session, the system will also play back MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image files in other sessions. If audio tracks and image files in AUDIO CD format or VIDEO CD format are recorded in the first session, only the first session will be played back.

MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image files that the system can play back

The system can play back the MP3 audio tracks which have the extension “.MP3”.

The system can play back JPEG image files –which have the extension “.JPG” or “.JPEG”. –which conform to the DCF* image file

format.

*“Design rule for Camera File system”: Image standard for digital cameras regulated by Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA).

Playback order of MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image files

The playback order of MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image files recorded on a DATA CD is as follows:

x Structure of disc contents

Tree 1 Tree 2

Tree 3 Tree 4 Tree 5

ROOT

Album

 

 

 

 

 

 

MP3 audio tracks or

 

JPEG image files

 

 

 

 

When you insert a DATA CD and press H (or nN on the unit), the numbered tracks (or files) are played back sequentially, from 1 through 7. Any albums or files in current selected album take priority over the next album in the same tree. (Example: Ccontains Dso 4 is played back before 5.)

When you press MENU and the list of albums names appears (page 28), the album names are arranged in the following order:

A t B t C t D t E t F t G. Albums that do not contain tracks (or files) (such as album E) do not appear in the list.

Notes

Depending on the software you use to create the DATA CD, the playback order may differ from the above illustration.

The playback order above may not be applicable if there are more than 200 albums and 300 files in each album.

The system can recognize up to 200 albums including albums that do not contain MP3 audio tracks and JPEG image files. The system will not play back any albums beyond the 200th album.

The maximum number of MP3 audio tracks or JPEG image files on an album which can be recognized by this system is

600 when the “MODE (MP3, JPEG)” is set to “AUDIO (MP3)” or “IMAGE (JPEG)”.

300 when “MODE (MP3, JPEG)” is set to “AUTO”.

The system may take longer time to play back, when the track or file in another album is played back.

An album that does not include an MP3 audio track or JPEG image file is skipped.

The system will play back any data with the extension “.MP3”, “.JPG” or “.JPEG” even if they are not in MP3 or JPEG format. Playing this data may generate a loud noise which could damage your speaker system.

The system does not support MP3PRO format.

The system can play back MP3 audio tracks in the format of MPEG 1 Audio Layer 3.

Depending on the encoding/writing software, recording device, or the recording media used at the time an MP3 audio track is recorded, you may encounter problems such as cannot play back, sound interruptions and noise.

The following discs take a longer time to start playback:

a disc recorded with complicated tree structure.

a disc recorded in Multi Session.

a disc to which data can be added (non finalized disc).

Some CD-Rs/CD-RWs/DVD-Rs/DVD-RWs/ DVD+Rs/DVD+RWs cannot be played back on the system depending on the file format.

26GB

When playing the DATA CD (CD-ROMs/CD-Rs/ CD-RWs) containing both MP3 audio tracks and JPEG image files, select “MODE (MP3, JPEG)” from Control Menu when the TOC reading of the disc is finished. If you want to play back

both the MP3 audio tracks and JPEG image files, set “MODE (MP3, JPEG)” to “AUTO”.

MP3 audio tracks only, set “MODE(MP3, JPEG)” to “AUDIO (MP3)”.

JPEG image files only, set “MODE (MP3, JPEG)” to “IMAGE (JPEG)”.

The system can playback to a depth of 8 folders only.

Tips

If you add numbers (01, 02, 03, etc.) to the front of the track or file names when you store the tracks or files in a disc, the tracks and files will be played back in that order.

Since a disc with many trees takes a longer time to start play back, it is recommended that you create albums with no more than two trees.

The PICTURE NAVI button does not work when “AUDIO (MP3)” is selected.

If you play back the MP3 audio tracks and the JPEG image files with large data size at the same time, the sound may be skipped. It is recommended that you reduce the data size by creating the MP3 audio tracks with bit rate 128 kpbs or lower. If the sound skipping still occurs, reduce the data size of JPEG image file by creating the JPEG image files in smaller size or resolution.
