Due to the difference in quality of the recording media and the quality of the recording itself, it can occasionally happen that a home-made DVD or CD cannot be read. This does not indicate a malfunction of the DVD player. You have to finalise your own CD R/RW recordings. Make sure the settings of your CD burning program correspond to the ISO 9660 standard to create a CD R or CD RW. When MP3, WMA or JPEG CDs are played back, individual tracks/pictures may be skipped or incorrectly played back/displayed. This can be due to the disc configuration, the encoder sofiware or the hardware used for the recording. COMPACT Audio CDs (CDDA) correspond to the specification and bear the corresponding DIGITAL AUDIO logo. Copy-protected CDs do not correspond to this specification and do not bear the corresponding logo. These CDs can cause playback errors. ü ENGLISH

Connecting the television/projector You have three options, depending on the sockets you have on your television or projector: — You get the best picture quality by making the connection at the EURO-AV socket using a fully assigned EURO-AV cable. — The standard connection for many devices, and one which provides good quality, is via the S-VIDEO OUT socket and the AUDIO OUT cinch sockets. — The simplest option which stills offers sufficient quality is connecting to the video socket with a cinch cable. Necessary adjustments to the television After you have made the connections at the selected output sockets, you must activate them. The setting procedure is described in the section ”Selecting the video output socket (RGB or S-Video}” on page 17. IFthe DVD player is connected to a television set with a 16:9 format, observe the seings described in the “Selecting the picture format of your television set” section on page 17. The colour standard of the DVD player must be matched to the colour standard of your television. The setting procedure is described in the section ”Setting the TV system” on Page 45. Connect the EURO-AV socket directly to the television and not indirecily via a video recorder. This can cause difficulties when playing back copy-protected CDs. Connection using a EURO-AV cable

S-VCD/VOD features nee You can recognise S-VCD/VCDs (video CDs) by the logo on the label. ûl Depending on the contents of the S-VCD/VCD (films, music videos etc.), the ETAPE discs may carry one or more titles. Like audio CDs, S-VCDs/VCDs have a track structure. S-VCDs/VCDs can be created using the PBC (playback control) system for track navigation. This depends on the processing and burning software used. You can control and direct playback of the S-VCD/VCD using the menu of the DVD player on the television screen. You cannot select some of the functions on the DVD player (video strobe, slow motion, A-B repeat, camera angle, scene selection) when you are playing an S-VCD/VCD.

Depending on how they were created, S-VCDs can have various subtitles and dubbed languages. PBC (PLAYBACK CONTROL) PBC is a navigation option for S-VCD/VCDs. PBC information is burned onto the disc when it is made. PBC switches between the playlist structure [the menu on the S-VCD/VCD) and manual selection by the user. The default setting upon delivery is PBC activated. PBC and the program info on the S-VCD/VCD predetermine the navigation options. IF the disc has PBC, »PBC& appears in the display. IF PBC is deactivated, the S-VCD/VCD behaves like a normal CD as regards navigation (with a track structure). The user can select the track or title with » 1. 06, »& or »bl« or » €« or » Dh « start playback with »B-« or end playback with »II«.

MP3 CD features MP3 stands for MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3 and arises from the Motion Picture Ar Expert Group (MPEG) Standard which was developed for compressing film data. The MP3 format enables audio files to be saved on a computer with a sound quality similar to that of a CD. This only requires approx. 10% of the original data quantity. The standard encoding byte rate for MP3 files is 128 kbps. Generally, the higher the byte rate of a an MP3 file, the better the sound quality. Most MP3 files in the Internet are encoded at 128 or 160 kbps. 160 kbps is considered CD quality. MP3 files can be downloaded from the Internet and then burned onto a CD- ROM disc. Your DVD player can read the ID3 tag from the file header, which contains information on title and artist, and display this in the info line/status display. This MP3 text can be displayed as ticker text in the device display. MP3 CDs contain only sound recordings. They can be played in the normal manner on an audio system. The digital signals transmitted during MP3 playback are PCM coded, regardless of the audio output setting. The signals are output with the same data rate as the music source (possibilities are: 32 kbps — 320 kbps, ideal: 128 kbps). MP3 files can be organised into folders and subfolders, similar to files on a PC.

SOUND SETTINGS Setting the dynamic volume range Dolby digital sounditracks have a very large dynamic volume range, hence there is a great difference in volume between quiet and loud tones. When played at high volume this can be a fascinating experience, which may however cause disturbance late at night. Simply reducing the volume does not produce pleasing results, and the dialogue becomes difficult to understand. In order to achieve the desired results, you would have to reduce the volume only for the louder sounds, increase the volume during quieter scenes and maintain the volume of the dialogue. An adjustment is carried out with the following setting. You can change the volume relations in five steps. Pure

INFORMATION Rectifying minor problems Not every picture or sound problem is caused by a defect in your DVD player. Impairment can also be caused by leads having been accidentally pulled out, damaged DVDs/CDs and worn-out batteries in the remote control. IF the following measures do not bring about satisfactory results, consult an authorised dealer. DVD-R/RW5s in DVD video format, as well as CD-Rs and CD-RWSs in CD-DA and MP3 format can be played. Due to the difference in quality of the recording media and the quality of the recording itself, it can occasionally happen that a home-made DVD or CD cannot be read. This does not indicate a malfunction of the DVD player.
