Introduction—Continued
Terminology
AES/EBU: A digital audio connection format similar to coaxial but found mainly on professional digital audio equipment. Balanced XLR cables are used for better noise immunity and longer cable runs.
CD-R (compact disc recordable): A type of CD that can be recorded only once. Can be used for VCD, CD, MP3, or JPEG.
CD-RW (compact disc rewrite): A type of CD that can be recorded over and over again. Can be used for VCD, CD, MP3, or JPEG.
Chapter: Titles on DVD-Video discs can be subdivided into chapters.
■ Component video: A video connection format that separates the luminance (Y) and color difference signals (PR, PB), providing better picture quality than S-Video.
Composite video: A video connection format that combines the luminance and color signals together.
- Direct Digital Path: Unique Onkyo technology that uses dedicated shielded cables to connect the digital audio outputs, protecting the digital output signals against the possibility of noise and interference.
Dolby Digital: Once known as AC-3, this is the designated surround sound format for DVD-Video, HDTV, and select digital broadcasts (cable, satellite, over-the-air). A Dolby Digital bitstream may contain mono, stereo, Dolby Surround, or 5.1-channel audio information.
Dolby Pro Logic: The decoders used in home theater equipment to decode Dolby Surround material. See Dolby Surround.
Dolby Surround: The original Dolby surround-sound format uses matrix encoding to deliver four channels (left, right, center, and surround) over two audio channels. Can be used with VHS video, analog TV, and other analog stereo systems. The movie theater version is known as Dolby Stereo.
Downmixing: The process of mixing multiple audio channels into fewer channels. For example, a 5.1-channel surround mix can be downmixed to two channels for reproduction on stereo systems.
Downsampling: The process of reducing the sampling rate of digital audio.
DTS (Digital Theater Systems): Like Dolby Digital, the DTS surround-sound format offers up to 5.1-channels of information, but uses less compression for a more faithful sound.
DVD-Audio: The DVD format for storing up to six (5.1) channels of 24-bit/96 kHz digital audio or two channels of 24-bit/192 kHz digital audio.

Before Use
Setting the Voltage Selector (Worldwide model only)
The Worldwide model has a voltage selector for compatibility with power systems around the world. Before you plug in this model, make sure that the voltage selector is set to the correct voltage for your area. If it isn't, use a small screwdriver to set it as appropriate. For example, if the voltage in your area is 120 volts, set the selector to "120V." If it's between 220 and 230 volts, set it to "220-230V."

Installing the Remote's Batteries
1 To open the battery compartment, press the small hollow and slide off the cover.

2 Insert the three supplied batteries (AA/R6) in accordance with the polarity markings inside the battery compartment.

3 Put the cover onto the remote controller and slide it shut.

Connecting
This chapter explains how to connect the RDV-1.1 to your other AV components.
Before Making Any Connections
- Read the manuals supplied with your AV components.
- Don't connect the power cord until you've completed all audio and video connections.
Optical Digital Outputs

The RDV-1.1's optical digital output sockets have dust caps for keeping out dust and dirt when they're not in use. Remove the cap before inserting an optical plug, and push the plug in all the way to make a good connection. Keep the dust cap in a safe place for future use.
RCA AV Connection Color Coding
RCA-type AV connections are usually color coded: red, white, and yellow. Use red plugs to connect right-channel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled "R"). Use white plugs to connect left-channel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled "L"). And use yellow plugs to connect composite video inputs and outputs.

- Push each plug in all the way to make a good connection (loose connections can cause noise or malfunctions).
To prevent interference, keep audio and video cables away from power cords and speaker cables.

Connecting a Standard TV
This section shows how to connect the RDV-1.1 to a standard TV, in which the TV handles both the video and audio. If your TV has a Dolby Pro Logic decoder built-in, you'll be able to enjoy DVDs that bear the Dolby Surround logo.
To fully enjoy the Dolby Digital and DTS soundtracks available on most DVD-Video discs, or the multichannel audio of DVD-Audio and SACD, you need a suitable AV receiver (see page 36).
The RDV-1.1 has three types of video output for use with standard TVs: component video, S-Video, and composite video.
Component video offers the best picture quality, so if your TV supports it, use a commercially available component video cable to connect the RDV-1.1's COMPO-NENT VIDEO OUT to the component video input on your TV. If your TV supports progressive scanning, you must use a component video connection to take advantage of it.
If you don't have component video, S-Video offers better picture quality than composite video, so if your TV supports it, use the supplied S-Video cable to connect the RDV-1.1's SVIDEOVIDEO OUT to an S-Video input on your TV. Failing that, use the supplied composite video cable to connect the RDV-1.1'sVIDEOVIDEO OUT to a composite video input on your TV.

Connecting—Continued
E. Connecting a SCART-compatible TV (European model only)
This section shows how to connect the RDV-1.1 to a TV fitted with a SCART socket. SCART is a convenient connection format because it carries video (RGB, S-Video, composite) and stereo analog audio all in a single cable. If your TV has a Dolby Pro Logic decoder built-in, with a SCART connection you'll be able to enjoy DVDs that bear the Dolby Surround logo.
Use the supplied SCART cable to connect the RDV-1.1's AV CONNECTOR to a SCART socket on your TV.

Notes:
- The RDV-1.1's SCART socket can output RGB, S-Video, or composite video. The default setting is composite video. If your TV's SCART socket supports RGB or S-Video (check your TV's manual), you can change this setting and enjoy better picture quality (see page 75).
- See the tables on page 27 for details on how the RDV-1.1 outputs video and audio from its SCART socket.
F. Connecting a Component with an HDMI Input
This section shows how to connect the RDV-1.1 to an HDTV or projector that has an HDMI input socket.
What is HDMI?
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a new connection format that can carry uncompressed, standard or high definition digital video and up to eight channels of digital audio. Until now, several separate video and audio cables have been required to connect AV components together. With HDMI, a single cable is all that's necessary to achieve the best picture and audio quality. HDMI video is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface). To send HDMI video to a DVI input requires an HDMI-to-DVI cable. The RDV-1.1 supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), and for an HDMI-to-DVI connection to work, the other component must also support it. Note that this may not work with some DVI components.
Using HDMI
Use the supplied HDMI cable to connect the RDV-1.1's HDMI OUT to an HDMI input on your TV or projector.


Signal flow
Notes:
- Use the Digital Out/Digital 2 settings to match the HDMI output format with your HDTV (see page 76).
- The RDV-1.1 supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), a protection system for digital video. HDMI components that you connect to the RDV-1.1 must also support HDCP.
- The RDV-1.1 supports High-Definition Multimedia Interface Specification Information Version 1.0.
- See the tables on page 27 for details on how the RDV-1.1 outputs video and audio from its HDMI OUT socket.

Audio Formats
The RDV-1.1's HDMI OUT supports the following audio formats:
PCM (48 kHz, 44.1 kHz)
Dolby Digital
DTS
MPEG
If your HDMI-compatible TV or projector doesn't support Dolby Digital, DTS, or MPEG, the HDMI OUT will not output digital audio in that format. In this case, set the Digital Out/Digital 2 setting (i.e., Dolby Digital Out, DTS Out, or MPEG Out) to downmix to PCM (see page 76).
To output 96kHz PCM audio from a DVD-Video disc, set the Linear PCM Out setting to Down Sample On (see page 76).
Note that audio from DVD-Audio and SACD discs is not output by the HDMI OUT. For these formats you need to use the analog multichannel output (see page 37) or i.LINK (see page 34).
Connecting to an AV Receiver's Video Inputs
This section shows how to connect the RDV-1.1's video outputs to an AV receiver's video inputs.
Component video offers the best picture quality, so if your AV receiver supports it, use a commercially available component video cable to connect the RDV-1.1's COMPONENT VIDEO OUT to a component video input on your AV receiver. If your AV receiver supports progressive scanning, you must use a component video connection to take advantage of it.
If you don't have component video, S-Video offers better picture quality than composite video, so if your AV receiver supports it, use the supplied S-Video cable to connect the RDV-1.1's SVIDEOVIDEO OUT to an S-Video input on your AV receiver. Failing that, use the supplied composite video cable to connect the RDV-1.1'sVIDEOVIDEO OUT to a composite video input on your AV receiver.

H. Using S-Video

I. Using Composite Video

J. Connecting i.LINK-compatible Components
This section shows how to connect the RDV-1.1 to an i.LINK-compatible component, such as an AV receiver.
What is i.LINK?
i.LINK is a brand name for IEEE 1394, the high-speed serial connection format commonly used on computers, camcorders, and other AV equipment to carry digital video and audio or other data. It's a bidirectional format, so connected components can talk to each other for optimal setup and synchronized operation.
Connecting a single i.LINK cable between the RDV-1.1 and an i.LINK-compatible AV receiver is all you need do to fully enjoy the multichannel audio of DVD-Video, DVD-Audio, and SACD.
Other advantages of i.LINK include automatic setup and source selection. For example, when you start playback on the RDV-1.1, an AV receiver connected via i.LINK will automatically select the RDV-1.1 as its input source.
What is i.LINK Audio?
i.LINK Audio is the standard for carrying up to six (5.1) channels and up to 24-bit/192 kHz digital audio over i.LINK (IEEE 1394). It's officially known as the A&M Protocol—Audio and Music Data Transmission Protocol.
The RDV-1.1 can output digital audio from DVD-Video, DVD-Audio, SACD, VCD, CD, and MP3 discs.
Using i.LINK
Use the supplied i.LINK cable to connect one of the RDV-1.1's i.LINK sockets to an i.LINK socket on your i.LINK-compatible AV receiver or other component. The RDV-1.1 has two i.LINK sockets, so you can easily connect other i.LINK-compatible components.

Connecting—Continued
Notes:
- Make sure that the i.LINK plugs are fully inserted.
- Don't disconnect any i.LINK cables while the RDV-1.1 is on.
- A short circuit may occur if the metallic part of an i.LINK plug comes into contact with the RDV-1.1's metal case, so make sure that your connections are secure, and don't leave one end of an i.LINK cable disconnected.
- Since i.LINK carries digital audio only, you must make separate connections for video (see pages 30 and 31).
- i.LINK cables are available with 4-pin or 6-pin connectors and it's OK to use both types together. The RDV-1.1's i.LINK sockets accepts only 4-pin plugs. The maximum cable length is 3.5m .
- Protected 96kHz digital audio from DVD-Video discs will be down sampled to 48kHz before being output from the i.LINK sockets.
- To output multichannel audio from a DVD-Audio disc, the Analog Audio Out setting must be set to Multi Channel (see page 77).
- The Digital Out/Digital 1 settings affect i.LINK output (see page 75).
- See the table on page 28 for details on how the RDV-1.1 outputs audio from its i.LINK sockets.
SACDPlayback
When the i.LINK Output Setting (see page 77) is set to On, SACD audio is output from the i.LINK sockets, but not the analog audio outputs. When it's set to Off, SACD audio is output from the analog audio outputs, but not the i.LINK sockets.
The RDV-1.1's i.LINK interface complies with the following specifications:
1) IEEE Std 1394a-2000, Standard for a High Performance Serial Bus
2) Audio and Music Data Transmission Protocol 2.0 In accordance with the standard for AM824 sequence adaptation layers, the RDV-1.1 is compatible with IEC60958 bitstream, DVD-Audio, and SACD.
Connecting Several i.LINK Components
With i.LINK it's possible to connect up to 17 components together, making the digital audio and control signals of each component available to all the other components. By using what's called an i.LINK repeater, it's possible to connect up to 63 components together. Multiple i.LINK components must be connected in series (Fig. 1) or in a tree-like system (Fig. 2).

i.LINK cables

i.LINK cables
i.LINK will not work if any of the connections form a loop, as shown below.


Notes:
- The RDV-1.1 is fully compatible with i.LINK Audio and works with other i.LINK Audio-compatible components, such as AV receivers, CD players, and so on. It may not work reliably when connected to DV cam-corders or computers with i.LINK or IEEE 1394 sockets. Refer to the manuals supplied with your other components for compatibility information.
- Components must support DTCP (Digital Transmission Content Protection) in order to play DVD-Video, DVD-Audio, and SACD over i.LINK. The RDV-1.1 does.
- i.LINK currently supports three transmission speeds: S100 (100 Mbps), S200 (200 Mbps), and S400 (400 Mbps). The RDV-1.1 supports S400. Components of any speed can be connected together, although for best performance, slower components should be connected at the edges of the system (as shown by the shaded components in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2).
Connecting—Continued
- When several i.LINK components are connected together, i.LINK may not work properly if certain components are on standby. i.LINK will work properly while the RDV-1.1 is on standby. However, the system will not work at all if any component is fully shutdown (i.e., power switch set to off). Refer to the manuals supplied with your other components for more information.
- i.LINK operation may be interrupted if a connected component is turned on or off, or its i.LINK settings are turned on or off.
Connecting to an AV Receiver's Audio Inputs
This section shows how to connect the RDV-1.1's audio outputs to an AV receiver's audio inputs.
K. Digital Audio Connection (Dolby Digital & DTS)
To fully enjoy the Dolby Digital and DTS soundtracks available on most DVD-Video discs, you need to connect one of the RDV-1.1's digital audio outputs (DIGITAL 1 or DIGITAL 2) to a digital audio input on an AV receiver that supports Dolby Digital and DTS. You can also enjoy Dolby Surround, if your receiver supports Dolby Pro Logic.
Use an optical, coaxial, or AES/EBU digital audio cable to connect one of the RDV-1.1's DIGITAL 1 (OPTICAL, COAXIAL) or DIGITAL 2 outputs (OPTICAL, COAXIAL, or AES/EBU) to a corresponding digital audio input on your AV receiver, as shown.

DIGITAL 1 Connections

DIGITAL 2 Connections
Notes:
- Dolby Digital, DTS, DVD-Audio, and SACD can also be fully enjoyed by using i.LINK (page 34).
- In addition to a digital connection, it's recommended that you also connect the D.MIX AUDIO OUT to a spare analog audio input on your AV receiver, as this will allow you to record audio to a cassette recorder or CD recorder. If your AV receiver supports Zone 2, you must make an analog audio connection in order to select the RDV-1.1 as the input source for Zone 2.
- Make sure that the digital output (Digital 1 Out or Digital 2 Out) is set to Dolby Digital (see page 75). Otherwise you won't get surround sound. Likewise for DTS (see page 75).
- When playing Dolby Digital or DTS soundtracks, be sure to select Dolby Digital or DTS decoding, respectively, on your AV receiver. Refer to your AV receiver's manual.
- The AES/EBU socket outputs digital audio, so do not connect it to an analog audio input on another component.
Connecting—Continued
L. Analog Audio Connection (Dolby Digital, DTS, DVD-Audio & SACD)
To fully enjoy the multichannel audio of DVD-Audio and SACD, you need to connect the RDV-1.1's 5.1/7.1-channel analog audio output to a multichannel analog audio input on an AV receiver. Dolby Digital and DTS soundtracks can also be fully enjoyed with this type of connection.
Use a multichannel analog audio cable (RCA) to connect the RDV-1.1's FRONT, SURR 1, CENTER, and SUB-WOOFER AUDIO OUTs to a 5.1-channel analog audio input on the AV receiver. (You can use several separate RCA audio cables instead of a multichannel cable.) Set the SURR MODE (AUDIO OUT) switch to 1.
If your AV receiver supports 7.1-channels and you're using back surround speakers, connect the RDV-1.1's SURR 2 AUDIO OUTs to the AV receiver's surround back left and right inputs as well, and set the RDV-1.1's SURR MODE (AUDIO OUT) switch to 1 + 2

Notes:
Refer to the hookup information supplied with your AV receiver.
- You can experience Dolby Digital only with DVDs that bear the Dolby Digital logo. Likewise, you can experience DTS only with DVDs or CDs that bear the DTS logo.
DVD-Video discs may contain Dolby Digital and DTS soundtracks. The Dolby Digital soundtrack will be selected by default. To play the DTS soundtrack, use the movie's main menu and look under Language or Audio Setup. Alternatively, use the remote controller's [Audio] button (see page 63).
- See the table on page 28 for details on how the RDV-1.1's audio outputs handle Dolby Digital, DTS, DVD-Audio, and SACD.
Connecting a Stereo Amp
This section explains how to connect the RDV-1.1 to a stereo hi-fi amp or receiver for sound quality better than that provided by most TVs. This is great for listening to your CDs and MP3s. DVD-Video discs and VCDs will sound better too. You can also enjoy Dolby Surround, if your receiver supports Dolby Pro Logic.
M. Analog Connection
Use an RCA audio cable to connect the RDV-1.1's D.MIX AUDIO OUT to a stereo analog audio input on your amp or receiver.

DIGITAL 1 Connections

DIGITAL 2 Connections
Notes:
- Be sure to configure the digital output (Digital 1 Out or Digital 2 Out) for PCM (see page 75). Otherwise an unpleasant digital noise may be heard, which may damage your equipment.
- The RDV-1.1 doesn't support AC-3RF, so don't connect it to the AC-3RF input on a Dolby Digital receiver.
- See the table on page 28 for details on how the RDV-1.1 outputs audio from the DIGITAL AUDIO OUTs.
- The AES/EBU socket outputs digital audio, so do not connect it to an analog audio input on another component.
Connecting—Continued
O. Connecting Standard Video Equipment for Progressive Conversion
If your TV supports progressive scanning, you can connect another video component (satellite/cable tuner, LD player, etc.) to the RDV-1.1 and it will upconvert interlaced video to progressive. This is also useful when your TV doesn't have enough video inputs to connect all of your components.
You can connect your other video component to the RDV-1.1's component, S-Video, or composite Video IN input, as shown. To use the other component, on the RDV-1.1, set the video input source to External (see page 67).

Notes:
- If the source video signal is unstable or of poor quality, the picture may be distorted or flicker.
- The component video VIDEO IN has priority. If there's no signal present at that input, the RDV-1.1 uses the S-Video input. And if there's no signal present there, it uses the composite video input.
- See the table on page 27 for details on how the RDV-1.1's video outputs work with each video input source.

Controlling Components That Are Out of Range
You can use the following multiroom kits to control the RDV-1.1 when it's out of range of the remote controller:
- Multiroom kits such as those made by Niles and Xantech.

Controlling the RDV-1.1 When It's Out of Range
If the RDV-1.1 is located in another room, installed in a cabinet, or is out of range of its remote controller, you can use a commercially available IR receiver to pick up the remote controller signals and feed them to the RDV-1.1, as shown below.

Connect the IR receiver to the RDV-1.1 as shown below.

Controlling Other Out-of-range
Components
For another component that is out of range of its remote controller, you can use a commercially available IR emitter to retransmit the remote controller signals received at the RDV-1.1's IR IN, as shown below.

Connect the IR emitter to the RDV-1.1's IR OUT, and place the IR emitter in front of the other AV component's remote control sensor (usually located on its front panel), as shown below. See the instructions supplied with the IR emitter.

Only remote controller signals received by the RDV-1.1's IR IN are fed through to the IR OUT. Signals picked up by the RDV-1.1's remote control sensor are not.
