Discs cannot be played back

DVD-Audio, DVD-ROM (data), DVD-RAM, DVD-R/DVD-RW recorded in the DVD-VR format, CD-ROM, CD-I (CD-I Ready), Photo CD, etc.

- Playing back these discs will generate noise and damage the speakers.

Note on Region Code:

DVD players and DVD Video discs have their own Region Code numbers. This receiver can only play back DVD discs whose Region Code numbers include "2."

Examples:

If you insert a DVD Video disc of an incorrect Region Code

"REGION CODE ERROR!" appears on the monitor.

Caution for DualDisc playback

- The Non-DVD side of a "DualDisc" does not comply with the "Compact Disc Digital Audio" standard. Therefore, the use of Non-DVD side of a DualDisc on this product may not be recommended.

Digital audio formats

The System can play back the following digital audio formats.

Linear PCM: Uncompressed digital audio, the same format used for CDs and most studio masters.

Dolby Digital *2: Compressed digital audio, developed by Dolby Laboratories, which enables multi-channel encode to create the realistic surround sound.

DTS *3 (Digital Theater Systems):

Compressed digital audio, developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc., which enables multi-channel like Dolby Digital. As the compression ratio is lower than for Dolby Digital, it provides wider dynamic range and better separation.

MPEG Audio: Another compressed digital audio which also enables multi-channel encode to create the realistic surround sound. However, this System downmix the multi-channel signals into 2 channels (decoded PCM) and play it back.

*1 A hybrid file system used to provide compatibility with ISO 9660 for accessing any type of files on the disc.

LINE IN: For selecting the external component connected to the LINE IN plug.

AUX IN: For selecting the external component connected to the AUX input jack.

(NOT compatible with digital signals.)

2 Turn on the connected component and start playing the source. 3 Adjust the volume.

4 Adjust the sound as you want. (See pages 36 - 38.)

Listening to the DAB tuner

When an ensemble is received, searching stops.

To stop searching, press the same button again.

To tune in to an ensemble manually

In step ③ above...

2 Select the desired ensemble frequencies.

What is DAB system?

DAB can deliver CD quality sound without any annoying interference and signal distortion. Furthermore, it can carry text, pictures, and data. When transmitting, DAB combines several programmes (called “services”) to form one “ensemble.” In addition, each “service”—called “primary service”—can also be divided into its components (called “secondary service”).

A typical ensemble has six or more programmes (services) broadcast at the same time.

By connecting the DAB tuner, this receiver can do the following:

- Tracing the same programme automatically — Alternative Reception (see “DAB AF” on page 40).

It is recommended to use the DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) tuner KT-DB1000 with your receiver. If you have another DAB tuner, consult your JVC IN-CAR ENTERTAINMENT dealer.

• Refer also to the instructions supplied with your DAB tuner.

Storing DAB services in memory

You can preset six DAB services (primary) for each band.

1 Perform steps ① to ④ on page 49 to select the service you want. 2 Select the preset number (1 - 6) you want to store into.

The preset number flashes for a while.

Tuning in to a preset DAB service

3 Select the preset DAB service (primary) number (1 - 6) you want.

If the selected primary service has some secondary services, pressing the same button again will tune in to the secondary services.

Tracing the same programme — Alternative Reception

You can keep listening to the same programme by activating the Alternative Reception.

• While receiving a DAB service:

When driving in an area where a service cannot be received, this receiver automatically tunes in to another ensemble or FM RDS station broadcasting the same programme.

• While receiving an FM RDS station:

When driving in an area where a DAB service is broadcasting the same programme as the FM RDS station is broadcasting, this receiver automatically tunes in to the DAB service.

When shipped from the factory, Alternative Reception is activated.

To deactivate the Alternative Reception, see page 40.

To change the display information while tuning in to an ensemble

How to clean the connectors

Frequent detachment will deteriorate the connectors.

To minimize this possibility, periodically wipe the connectors with a cotton swab or cloth moistened with alcohol, being careful not to damage the connectors.

Connector

Moisture condensation

Moisture may condense on the lens inside the DVD/CD player in the following cases:

• After starting the heater in the car. • If it becomes very humid inside the car. Should this occur, the DVD/CD player may malfunction. In this case, eject the disc and leave the receiver turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates.

How to handle discs

When removing a disc from its case, press down the center holder of the case and lift the disc out, holding it by the edges.

Center holder

• Always hold the disc by the edges. Do not touch its recording surface.

When storing a disc into its case, gently insert the disc around the center holder (with the printed surface facing up).

- Make sure to store discs into the cases after use.

To keep discs clean

A dirty disc may not play correctly. If a disc does become dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.

- Do not use any solvent (for example, conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean discs.

To play new discs

New discs may have some rough spots around the inner and outer edges. If such a disc is used, this receiver may reject the disc.

To remove these rough spots, rub the edges with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.

Do not use the following discs:

More about this receiver

Basic operations

Turning on the power

- By pressing SOURCE on the receiver, you can also turn on the power.

Selecting the sources

• When no disc is loaded in the receiver, "DISC" cannot be selected.
• Without connecting to the CD changer or DAB tuner, “CD-CH” or “DAB” cannot be selected.

Turning off the power

- If you turn off the power while listening to a disc, disc play will start automatically, next time you turn on the power.

Tuner operations

Storing stations in memory

• During SSM search... - All previously stored stations are erased and stations are stored newly. - Received stations are preset in No. 1 (lowest frequency) to No. 6 (highest frequency). - When SSM is over, the station stored in No. 1 will be automatically tuned in. - When storing a station manually, a previously preset station is erased when a new station is stored in the same preset number.

FM RDS operations

- Network-Tracking Reception requires two types of RDS signals—PI (Programme Identification) and AF (Alternative Frequency) to work correctly. Without receiving these data correctly, Network-Tracking Reception will not operate.

• If a Traffic Announcement is received, the volume level (TA VOL) automatically changes to the preset level.
• If a DAB tuner is connected and Alternative Reception for DAB services (DAB AF) is activated, Network-Tracking Reception (AF-REG) is also activated automatically. On the other hand, Network-Tracking Reception cannot be deactivated without deactivating Alternative Reception. (See page 40.)

Disc operations

General

• In this manual, words “track” and “file” are interchangeably used when referring to MP3/WMA files and their file names.
• This receiver can also playback 8 cm discs.
• This receiver can only play back audio CD (CD-DA) files if different types of files are recorded on the same disc.
• The first track will be skipped if a different type of file is detected first.
• When a disc has been loaded, selecting “DISC” for the playback source starts disc play.

Inserting a disc

- When a disc is inserted upside down, "PLEASE" and "EJECT" appear alternately on the display. Press ▲ to eject the disc.

To be continued....

Playing a DVD-R/DVD-RW or CD-R/CD-RW

• Use only “finalized” discs.
• This receiver can play back only the files of the same type which is first detected if a disc includes both audio CD (CD-DA) files and MP3/WMA files.

- Only for CD-R/CD-RW: This receiver can play back multi-session discs; however, unclosed sessions will be skipped while playing.

- Some DVD-R/DVD-RW or CD-R/CD-RW may not play back on this receiver because of their disc characteristics, and for the following causes:

– Discs are dirty or scratched. - Moisture condensation occurs on the lens inside the receiver. – The pickup lens inside the receiver is dirty. - CD-R/CD-RW on which the files are written with “Packet Write” method. - DVD-R/DVD-RW which are not written in UDF-Bridge Format (eg. UDF format or ISO format). - There are improper recording conditions (missing data, etc.) or media conditions (stain, scratch, warp, etc.).

- DVD-RW/CD-RW may require a longer readout time since the reflectance of DVD-RW/CD-RW is lower than that of regular discs.

- Do not use the following DVD-R/DVD-RW or CD-R/CD-RW:

– Discs with stickers, labels, or protective seal stuck to the surface. – Discs on which labels can be directly printed by an ink jet printer.

Using these discs under high temperatures or high humidities may cause malfunctions or damages to discs.

Playing an MP3/WMA disc

• This receiver can play back MP3/WMA files with the extension code .mp3 or .wma (regardless of the letter case—upper/lower) recorded in either CD-R/CD-RW or in DVD-R/DVD-RW.
• This receiver can show the names of albums, artists (performer), and ID3 Tag (Version 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3, or 2.4) for MP3 files and WMA files.
• This receiver can display only one-byte characters. No other characters can be correctly displayed.
• This receiver can play back MP3/WMA files meeting the conditions below:
• Bit rate: MP3: 32 kbps — 320 kbps WMA: 32 kbps — 192 kbps
• Sampling frequency: 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz (for MPEG-1) 24 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 16 kHz (for MPEG-2) 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz (for WMA) – Disc format: ISO 9660 Level 1/Level 2, Romeo, Joliet, Windows long file name
• The maximum number of characters for file/folder names vary among the disc format used (includes 4 extension characters—.mp3 or .wma). – ISO 9660 Level 1: up to 12 characters – ISO 9660 Level 2: up to 31 characters – Romeo: up to 128 characters – Joliet: up to 64 characters
• Windows long file name: up to 128 characters
• This receiver can recognize the total of 1100 files, 250 folders (maximum of 999 files per folder).
• This receiver can play back the files recorded in VBR (variable bit rate).

The files recorded in VBR have a discrepancy in elapsed time display, and do not show the actual elapsed time. Especially, after performing the search function, this difference becomes noticeable.

- This receiver cannot play back the following files:

• MP3 files encoded with MP3i and MP3 PRO format.
• MP3 files encoded in an inappropriate format.
• MP3 files encoded with Layer 1/2. – WMA files encoded with lossless, professional, and voice format.
• WMA files which are not based upon Windows Media® Audio. – WMA files copy-protected with DRM. – WMA files recorded with MBR (Multiple Bit Rate) format.
• Files which have the data such as WAVE, ATRAC3, etc.

Changing the source

- If you change the source, playback also stops (without ejecting the disc).

Next time you select “DISC” for the playback source (without activating Dual Zone), disc play starts from where it has been stopped previously.

Ejecting a disc

- If the ejected disc is not removed within 15 seconds, the disc is automatically inserted again into the loading slot to prevent it from dust. (Disc will not play this time.)

DVD setup menu

• When the language you have selected is not recorded on a disc, the original language is automatically used as the initial language. In addition, for some discs, the initial languages settings will not work as you set due to their internal disc programming.
• While playing (or pausing), you cannot change these languages.

After you change any of these language settings, eject the disc and insert it (or another disc) again so that your setting takes effect.

• When you select “16:9 [MULTI]” for a picture whose aspect ratio is 4:3, the picture slightly changes due to the process for converting the picture width.
• Even if “4:3 [MULTI] PAN SCAN” is selected, the screen size may become “4:3 [MULTI] LETTER BOX” with some DVDs. This depends on how they are recorded.

General settings—PSM

- If you change the “AMP GAIN” setting from “HIGH PWR” to “LOW PWR” while the volume level is set higher than “VOL 30,” the receiver automatically changes the volume level to “VOL 30.”

Other main functions

- If you try to assign a title to a 31st disc, "NAMEFULL" flashes on the display. Delete unwanted titles before assignment. - Titles assigned to discs in the CD changer can also be shown if you playback the disc on the receiver.

DAB tuner operations

• Only primary DAB services can be presetted even when you store a secondary service.
• A previously preset DAB service is erased when a new DAB service is stored in the same preset number.

On-screen guide icons

During play, the following guide icons may appear for a while on the monitor.

: Appears at the beginning of a scene containing multi-subtitle languages (for DVD only). : Appears at the beginning of a scene containing multi-audio languages (for DVD only). : Appears at the beginning of a scene containing multi-angle views (for DVD only). : Playback II: Pause : Forward Slow Motion Playback (for DVD and VCD only) : Reverse Slow Motion Playback (for DVD only) : Forward search : Reverse search

About sounds reproduced through the rear terminals

- Through the analog terminals (Speaker out/LINE OUT/2nd AUDIO OUT): 2-channel signal is emitted.

When playing a multi-channel encoded disc, multi-channel signals are downmixed.

(AUDIO—DOWN MIX: see page 31.)

• Through DIGITAL OUT (optical):

Digital signals (Linear PCM, Dolby Digital, DTS, MPEG Audio) are emitted through this terminal. (For more details, see below.)

To reproduce multi-channel sounds such as Dolby Digital and DTS, connect an amplifier or a decoder compatible with these multi-channel sources to this terminal, and set “DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT” correctly. (See page 31.)

- About Dual Zone

While you are listening to the radio, CD changer, or external component through the speakers built into your car compartment, you can listen to the playback sound of this DVD/CD player using the headphones connected to the 2nd AUDIO OUT plug at the same time. (For details, see page 35.)
