Before Use (Continued)

Precautions

Handling the unit

When shipping the unit

The original shipping carton and packing materials may come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the unit as it was originally packed at the factory.

When setting up the unit

The picture and sound of a nearby TV, VCR, or radio may be disturbed during playback. In this case, position the unit away from the TV, VCR, or radio, or turn off the unit after removing the disc.

To keep the exterior surfaces clean

Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray, near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will leave marks on the surface.

Cleaning the unit

To clean the cabinet

Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzene, or thinner, as these might damage the surface of the unit.

To obtain a clear picture

The

DVD/CD Receiver

is a high-tech, precision device. If the optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn, the picture quality will be poor. Regular inspection and maintenance are recommended after every 1,000 hours of use. (This depends on the operating environment.)

Notes on Discs

Disc Handling

Do not touch the playback side of the disc. Hold the disc by the edges so that fingerprints will not get on the surface. Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.

Storing discs

After playing, store the disc in its case. Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct sunlight, as there may be a considerable temperature increase inside the car.

Cleaning discs

Fingerprints and dust on the disc can distort the picture or reduce sound quality. Before playing, clean the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the centre outwards.

Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzene, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for vinyl records.

In the case of normal positioning using the 6 speakers (2 front speakers, centre speaker, 2 rear speakers and subwoofer). If you want to play the excellent bass sound, DTS digital surround or Dolby Digital surround, you should connect a subwoofer.

•Front speakers

According to your listening position set up the speakers for equal distance. And by hearing position set up the interval between speakers to 45 degree.

• Centre speaker

The centre speakers and front speakers are ideally the same height. But normally place it above or below the television.

• Rear speakers

Place left and right behind the listening area. These speakers recreate sound motion and atmosphere required for surround sound playback. For best results, do not install the rear speakers too far behind the listening position and install them at or above the level of the listener’s ears. It is also effective to direct the rear speakers towards a wall or ceiling to further disperse the sound. In the case of a smaller room size, if the audience is near to the rear wall set the rear speakers opposite each other, and set the rear speakers above 60 - 90 cm than the listener’s ears.

• Subwoofer

This can be placed in any front position.

Mini Glossary for Audio Stream & Surround mode

Allows you to enjoy 5.1(or 6) discrete channels of high quality digital audio from DTS program sources such as discs, DVD and compact discs, etc.bearing the trademark. DTS Digital Surround delivers up to 6 channels of transparent audio(which means identical to the original masters) and results in exceptional clarity throughout a true 360 degree sound field. The term DTS is a trademark of DTS Technology, LLC. Manufactured under license from DTS Technology, LLC.

The Dolby Digital surround format lets you enjoy up to 5.1 channels of digital surround sound from a Dolby Digital program source. If you play DVDs with “ ” mark, you can enjoy even better sound quality, greater spatial accuracy, and improved dynamic range.

Use this mode when playing movie or Dolby Digital 2 channel which carries the “ ” mark. This mode provides the effect

of being in a movie theatre or live concert house-an effect with an intensity which can only be obtained through DOLBY PRO LOGIC SURROUND. The effect of the front/back/left/right movement of the sound image, as well as the sense of fixed position in the sound image, is much clearer and more dynamic than before.

(II)

Dolby Pro Logic II creates five full-bandwidth output channels from two-channel sources. This is done using an advanced, high-purity matrix surround decoder that extracts the spatial properties of the original recording without adding any new sounds or tonal colorations.

MOVIE mode:

The Movie mode is for use with stereo television shows and all programs encoded in Dolby Surround. The result is enhanced soundfield directionality that approaches the quality of discrete

5.1-channel sound.

MUSIC mode:

The Music mode is for use with any stereo music recordings.

MATRIX mode:

The Matrix mode is the same as the Music mode except that the directional enhancement logic is turned off. It may be used to enhance mono signals by making them seem “larger.” The Matrix mode may also find use in auto systems, where the fluctuations from poor FM stereo reception can otherwise cause disturbing surround signals from a logic decoder. The ultimate “cure” for poor FM stereo reception may be simply to force the audio to mono.

3D SURROUND

This unit can produce a 3D Surround effect, using 3D Surround Sound technology, which simulates multi-channel audio playback from two conventional stereo speakers instead of the five or more speakers normally required to listen to multi-channel audio from a home theatre. This feature works with DVD discs encoded with Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby Digital audio tracks.

BYPASS

Software with multichannel surround audio signals is played according to the way it was recorded.

Sound Mode

You can enjoy surround sound simply by selecting one of the pre-programmed sound fields according to the program you want to listen to. Press CD/DVD to select DVD mode.

Each time you press SOUND button, the sound mode is changed in the following order;

PRO LOGIC → PLII MOVIE → PLII MUSIC → PLII MATRI → ROCK → POP → LIVE → DANCE → TECHNO → CLASSIC → SOFT → 3D SURROUND → BYPASS ...

Note

The Sound Mode cannot be changed when in DTS or 5.1CH audio format.

Notes on MP3/WMA Recordings

About MP3



An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using the MPEG1 audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call files that have the “.mp3” file extension “MP3 files”.



The player can not read an MP3 file that has a file extension other than “.mp3”.

About WMA(Windows Media Audio)



An WMA file is a Microsoft audio compression technology.



WMA(Windows Media Audio) offers double the audio compression of the MP3 format.

MP3/WMA Disc compatibility with this DVD/CD receiver is limited as follows:

1. Sampling Frequency / only at 44.1kHz (MP3), 32 - 44.1kHz (WMA)

2. Bit rate / within 32 - 320kbps (MP3), 32 - 128kbps (WMA)

3. CD-R physical format should be “ISO 9660”

4. If you record MP3/WMA files using the software which cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example “Direct-CD” etc., it is impossible to playback MP3/WMA files. We recommend that you use “EasyCD Creator”, which creates an ISO9660 file system.

5. A single session disc requires MP3/WMA files in the first track. If there is no MP3/WMA file in the 1st track, it cannot playback MP3/WMA files. If you wish to playback MP3/WMA files, format all the data in the disc or use a new one.

6. File names should be named using 8 letters or less and must incorporate “.mp3” or “.wma” extension e.g. “********.MP3” or “********.WMA”.

7. Do not use special letters such as “/ : * ? “ < > ” etc.

8. Total number of files on the disc should be less than

650.

This DVD/CD Receiver requires discs/recordings to meet certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically set to these standards. There are many different types of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing MP3 or WMA files). That require certain pre-existing conditions (see above) to insure compatible playback.

Customers should also note that permission is required in order to download MP3/WMA files and music from the Internet. Our company has no right to grant such permission. Permission should always be sought from the copyright owner.

Notes on JPEG Recordings



Depending upon the size and number of the JPEG files, it could take a long time for the DVD/CD Receiver to read the disc’s contents. If you don’t see an on-screen display after several minutes, some of the files are too big — reduce the resolution of the JPEG files to less than 2 mega pixels and burn another disc.



Total number of files and folders on the disc should be less than 650.



Some disc may be incompatible due to different recording format or condition of disc.

 When you are using software such as “Easy CD

Creator” to burn the jpeg files into the CD-R, ensure that all the selected files have the “.jpg” extensions when copying into the CD layout.

 If the files have “.jpe” or “.jpeg” extensions, please

rename them as “.jpg” files.

 File names without “.jpg” extension will not be able to

be read by this DVD/CD Receiver. Even though the files are shown as JPEG image files in windows explorer.
