Copyright protection system
To play back the digital video images of DVD-video via an HDMI connection, it is necessary that both the player and the display device (or an AV receiver / amplifier) support a copyright protection system called HDCP (highbandwidth digital content protection system). HDCP is copy protection technology that comprises data encryption and authentication of the connected AV device. This unit supports HDCP. Please read the operating instructions of your display device (or AV receiver / amplifier) for more information.
Note:
- When using HDCP-incompatible display device, the picture will not be viewed properly.
- The audio signals from the HDMI jack (including the sampling frequency, the number of channels and bit length) may be limited by the device that is connected.
- Among the display device(s) that support HDMI, some do not support audio output (for example, projectors). In connections with device such as this unit, audio signals are not output from HDMI OUT jack.
- When this unit's HDMI jack is connected to a DVI-D compatible display device(s) (HDCP compatible) with an HDMI DVI converter cable, the signals are output in digital RGB.
- Pressing [HDMI] does not work when HDMI cable is not connected, or when no video signal is being output from HDMI OUT jack.
- Pressing [HDMI] does not work when a DVI compatible display devices is connected. Change the video resolution in the "HDMI Video" in the settings menu.
- When you make a selection, the TV monitor temporarily goes blank and then comes back again. If it does not, press [HDMI] repeatedly to change the resolution or press and hold [▶ (play)] on the front panel for 5 seconds to change the setting back to its default.
BEFORE YOU START
After you have completed all the connections, you must find the viewing channel (external input channel) on your TV.

Color Systems
DVD-video are recorded in different color systems throughout the world. The most common color system is NTSC (which is used primarily in the United States and Canada).
This unit employs NTSC color system, so the disc you play back must be recorded in the NTSC system. You cannot play back the disc recorded in other color systems.
Region Codes
This unit has been designed to play back DVD-video with region "1" or "ALL". You cannot play back DVD-video that are labeled for other regions. Look for the symbols on the right on your DVD-video. If these region symbols do not appear on your DVD-video, you cannot play back the disc in this unit. The number inside the globe refers to region of the world. A DVD-video labeled for a specific region can only play back on the unit with the same region code.

GLOSSARY
Analog Audio
An electrical signal that directly represents sound. Compare this to digital audio which can be an electrical signal, but is an indirect representation of sound. See also "Digital Audio".
Aspect Ratio
The width of a TV screen relative to its height. Conventional TVs are 4:3 (in other words, the TV screen is almost square); widescreen models are 16:9 (the TV screen is almost twice as wide as it is high).
Chapter
Just as a book is split up into several chapters, a title on a DVD-video is usually divided into chapters. See also "Title".
Component Video Output
Each signal of luminance (Y) and component ( P_B/C_B , P_R/C_R ) is independent to output so that you can experience picture color as it is.
Also, due to compatibility with progressive video (525p/480p), you can experience higher-density picture than that in interlace (525i/480i).
Digital Audio
An indirect representation of sound by numbers. During recording, the sound is measured at discrete intervals (44,100 times a second for CD audio) by an analog-to-digital converter, generating a stream of numbers. On playback, a digital-to-analog converter generates an analog signal based on these numbers. See also "Sampling Frequency" and "Analog Audio".
Dolby Digital
The system to compress digital sound developed by Dolby Laboratories. It offers you sound of stereo(2ch) or multi-channel audio.
EasyLink (HDMI CEC) (Consumer Electronics Control)
EasyLink (HDMI CEC) allows you to operate the linked functions of this player with Philips brand TV with EasyLink feature.
Philips does not guarantee 100 % interoperability with other brands of HDMI CEC compliant devices.
JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)
JPEG is a method of compressing still picture files. You can copy JPEG files on CD-RW/-R, DVD or SD Memory Card from a computer and play back the files on this unit.
MP3 (MPEG audio layer 3)
MP3 is a method of compressing files. You can copy MP3 files on CD-RW/-R, DVD+RW/+R or DVD-RW/-R from the computer and play back the files on this unit.
The most common system of encoding digital audio, found on CD and DAT. Excellent quality, but requires a lot of data compared to formats such as Dolby Digital and MPEG audio. For compatibility with digital audio recorders (CD, MD and DAT) and AV amplifiers with digital inputs, this unit can convert Dolby Digital and MPEG audio to PCM. See also "Digital Audio".
Progressive Scan (525p/480p)
A type of display that does not split each frame into fields, and instead scans directly through all the scanlines of each frame in order. Progressive scan provides less flickering and higher image resolution than traditional (525i/480i) TV signals.
Region Code
Regions associate discs and players with particular areas of the world. This unit will only play back discs that have compatible region codes. You can find the region code of your unit by looking on the rear panel. Some discs are compatible with more than one region (or all regions).
Sampling Frequency
The rate which sound is measured by a specified interval to turn into digital audio data. The numbers of sampling in one second defines as sampling frequency. The higher the rate, the better the sound quality.
Title
A collection of chapters on DVD-video. See also "Chapter".
Track
Audio CD use tracks to divide up the content of a disc. The DVD-video equivalent is called a chapter. See also "Chapter".
