Technicolor - Thomson IB5000 User Manual

Precautions

Ensure that the mains supply in your house complies with that indicated on the identification sticker located at the back of your player. Install your player horizontally, on a suitable base (furniture), with enough space around it for ventilation (7-10 cm). Make sure the ventilation slots are not covered. Do not stack other, or heavy equipments on top of the player. Do not place the player on amplifiers or other equipment which may become hot. Before moving the player, ensure the disc tray is empty. This player is designed for continuous use. Switching off the DVD player to the stand-by mode does not disconnect the electricity supply. In order to separate the player completely from the mains, it has to be disconnected by unplugging the mains plug, especially when left unused for a long period of time.

Condensation

If your player or a disc have been stored in a cold atmosphere, as for example during transportation in the winter, wait for approximately 2 hours until they have reached room temperature.

Protect the player from moisture and excess heat (e.g. fireplace) or equipment creating strong magnetic or electric fields (i. e. speakers ...). Disconnect the power cable from the mains electricity supply if the player malfunctions. Your player is not intended for industrial use but for domestic purposes only. Use of this product is for personal use only. Copying CDs or downloading music files for sale or other business purposes is or may be a violation of copyright law.

DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY: TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF NON-INFRINGEMENT OF COPYRIGHTS OR OTHER INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS RESULTING FROM THE USE OF THE PRODUCT UNDER CONDITIONS OTHER THAN AS HEREABOVE SPECIFIED ARE HEREBY EXCLUDED.

2 - Caution

1 - Setting up

Never open the player or any of its components. It can be dangerous for you or for certain fragile components. You could receive an electric shock or touch the laser beam. Do not place your eyes close to the opening of the disc tray or any other opening to look inside the player.

3 - For your safety

Always handle your discs with care. Hold a disc with fingers on the border or hole. Always place disc with the label facing upward (in case of a single-sided disc). Always place the disc properly into the tray using the proper guide area. Always use a soft cloth to clean discs if necessary, wipe from the centre to the border. Always put discs back into their cases after playing and store in a vertical position. Never try to play a Photo CD. Never use record cleaning sprays, benzine, static electricity liquids or any other solvent, if the disc surface is dirty. Wipe gently with a soft damp (water only) cloth, never wipe the disc in a circular motion, since circular scratches are likely to occur and could cause noise during playback.

5 - Batteries

Please respect the environment and prevailing regulations. Before you dispose of batteries or accumulators, ask your dealer whether they are subject to special recycling and if he accepts to take them back.

MP3 CD Playback

What’s MP3?

Skipping songs

When you play an MP3 disc, the MP3 menu will be displayed instead of the DVD player menu. The DVD player menu is not available when playing MP3 discs. MP3 content is divided into album(s) and songs. A disc may hold several albums and each album can contain several songs. (Similar to titles and chapters on a DVD disc.)

1 Use the (14, 17) keys on the remote to select

an album and press OK (15) to select that album.

2 Alist of the songs in that album will be displayed.

If you want to play a particular song, use the arrow (14, 17) keys on the remote to highlight a song and press OK (15) to play that song. You may also enter the desired track number in the selected album by using the number keys.

3 If you are in a song list and want to return to the

album list, press RETURN (20) to return to the previous menu screen.

MP3 is the audio file format allowing you to easily compress music recordings, and was co-developed by .

The main advantage of MP3 is that it enables storage of CD-quality music tracks on a home computer in manageable, compressed files. Thanks to compression you now only need about 4 Mb of disc space for a 4 minute music track, compared with some 40 Mb for conventional file formats, but with almost no reduction in listening quality!

Please read also our recommandations about MP3 discs, on pages 32-33.

During playback to skip to next or previous song on a MP3 CD:

• Press ¨¨| / |ÃÃ (21) repeatedly to go to the next or previous song; press as many times as the number of required song skips.

the Navigation keys

Digital audio output

* If the DVD disc contains an audio format of higher quality than 48kHz/16bit (maybe 96kHz/ 24bit), the player has to convert into a format compatible with DAT or MD.

** In this case you do not hear the highest sound quality possible recorded on the disc (the analog AUDIO OUT is also affected).

Caution for the optical or coaxial audio output.

When connecting an amplifier (with an optical/coaxial digital input connector) which does not contain the Dolby Digital decoder or DTS decoder, be sure to select:

• Dolby Digital = PCM

• DTS = Off

Do not use ... the Digital Audio Out sockets to connect to an equipment other than a Dolby Digital, DTS, MPEG 2

receiver or a suitable decoder. Such a connection can create a high level of noise that may be harmful to your ears and could damage headphones or speakers. Older digital equipment, some of which are not fully compliant with IEC 958, are likely to cause this problem.If you encounter this problem, use the Digital audio out menu (see above) to convert the Dolby Digital audio bitstream output to linear PCM. The same should be applied with the so-called Optical or Coaxial REC.OUT socket of Dolby Digital decoders, when they are connected to this DVD player. Since REC.OUT is a 1:1 copy of the decoder's input, no other equipment should be connected there.

DVD discs.

When playing a Dual-layer DVD disc (DVD-9 or DVD-18 is indicated on the jacket of the disc), you may notice some disturbance or picture freezing for a few seconds during the layer change.

CD-R discs.

This unit can play most CD-R discs. However, depending on the condition of the CD-recorder, computer and the disc used, you may find that not all discs will play successfully. When playing a CD-R disc, it is completely normal for the unit to take up to 30 seconds to recognize the disc before starting to play. If the disc is not recognized after a period of 30 seconds, remove the disc, and then insert it again. If after several trials, this disc cannot be recognized, make sure you have followed the recommendations below or try another type of disc.

Use CD-R data discs.

There are two main types of recordable CDs: CD-R audio discs (for music only), which should be used when recording with Hifi CDaudio recorder, and CD-R data Discs, which should be used when recording with a personal computer.

Use no more than 630 Mb of recording, regardless of the actual capacity of the CD-R disc.

Use only 650 Mb (74 minutes) CD-R, and avoid the 700 Mb format (80 minutes recording time).

Some studies show that blue-color CD-Rs may sometimes give lower playback quality than other-color CD-Rs.

Never use CD-RW (recordable/rewritable) discs.

These CDs are designed for multiple use, and are oriented to computer use rather than music. Playback quality with these discs can vary with the equipment used and many other technical factors.

Use a completely brand new CD-R disc (which has not been recorded at all).

Close all other applications on the computer to ensure reliable CD-R disc recording.

Use a good quality CD-R recording program.

Make your recordings in a single, one shot recording session, using the option “write at once”

This session should be the first session recorded on a blank CD-R disc. (Your home computer allows CD-R recording in several “passes” or sessions, and the computer can play back these individual sessions without difficulty. With a DVD player, however, there is just one play list, and the DVD player only plays what was recorded in that first play list. You should therefore make sure you can record all the tracks you intend recording in a single session.)

Do not under-record.

If you make just a few recordings on your disc the DVD player will take a long time searching for and locating these few tracks.

“Close the complete disc” at the end of recording.

This means that no more recording can be added, later on, on this disc. Your home computer will only do this if you have ticked the right option in your recording program, at the end of the recording session.

CD-R MP3 discs.

In the case of CD-R MP 3 discs, please follow all the recommendations for CD-R above, plus the comments below:

Your MP3 files should be ISO 9660 or JOLIET format.

ISO 9660 format and Joliet MP3 files are compatible with Microsoft’s DOS and Windows, and with Apple’s Mac. These two formats are the most widely used.

When naming your MP3 files do not exceed 8 characters, and place “.mp3” as the file extension.

General name format of: Title.mp3. When composing your title ensure that you use 8 characters or less, have no spaces in the name, and avoid the use of special characters including: ( . , / , \ , = ,+ ).

Use a decompression transfer rate of at least 128 kb/sec (kilobytes/second) when recording MP3 files.

Sound quality with MP3 files basically depends on the rate of compression/decompression you choose. Getting audio CD quality sound requires an analog/digital sampling rate, that is conversion to MP3 format, of at least 128 kb/sec and up to 160 kb/sec. However, choosing higher rates, like 192 kb/sec or more, only rarely give even better sound quality. Conversely, files with sampling rates below 128 kb/sec will not be played properly.

Do not try recording copyright protected MP3 files.

Certain “securized” files are encrypted and code protected to prevent illegal copying. These files are of the following types: Windows Media™ (registered trade mark of Microsoft Inc) and SDMI™ (registered trade mark of The SDMI Foundation). You must not copy such files.

Your DVD player only accepts one level of file directory.

Consequently you must choose:

• either to save all your MP3 recording files at the root of the disc;

• and/or create folders in the directory for each artist or music type (e.g. classical, rock, jazz, etc)

This should be organized as suggested below:

Artist1 Title1.mp3 Artist2 Title3.mp3

Title2.mp3 Title4.mp3...

And so on.

Important: The above recommendations cannot be taken as a guarantee that the DVD player will play MP3 recordings, or as an assurance of sound quality. You should note that certain technologies and methods for MP3 file recording on CD-Rs prevent optimal playback of these files on your DVD player (that is degraded sound quality and even, in some cases, inability of the player to read the file or files).

Note: The above recommendations were updated in April 2001
