Moreover, still pictures of high resolution can be played if they are included in the disc. Video CDs not equipped with PBC (Version 1.1) operate in the same way as audio CDs.

Title (DVD video discs only)

A title is generally a distinct section of a DVD disc. For example the main feature could be title 1, a documentary describing how the film was made could be title 2, and cast interviews could be title 3. Each title is assigned a reference number enabling you to locate it easily.

Chapter (DVD video discs only)

A chapter is a segment of a title such as a scene in a film or one interview in a series. Each chapter is assigned a chapter number, enabling you to locate the chapter you want. Depending on the disc, chapters may not be recorded.

Scene (VCD)

On a video CD with PBC (playback control) functions, moving pictures and still pictures are divided into sections called "scenes". Each scene is displayed in the menu screen and assigned a scene number, enabling you to locate the scene you want. A scene is composed of one or several tracks.

Track

A distinct element of audiovisual information, such as the picture or sound track for a specific language (DVD), or a musical piece on a video or audio CD.

Caution:

You must set the TV Output Select option on the setup menu to use Y Pb Pr or RGB signal from the EURO AV1 AUDIO/VIDEO socket. (See "TV Output Select" on page 24.)

Accessory Audio/Video (A/V) Connections to DVD/VCR Combi receiver

Connect the AV3 jacks on the DVD/VCR Combi receiver to the audio/video out jacks on your accessory component, using the optional audio/video cables.

Radio Aerial Connections

Connect the supplied FM/AM aerial for listening to the radio.

• Connect the AM loop aerial to the AM aerial connector.
• Connect the FM wire aerial to the FM aerial connector.

Notes

• To prevent noise pickup, keep the AM loop aerial away from the DVD/VCR Combi receiver and other components.
- Be sure to fully extend the FM wire aerial.
• After connecting the FM wire aerial, keep it as horizontal as possible.

Speaker System Connection

Connect the speakers using the supplied speaker cords.

To obtain the best possible surround sound, adjust the speaker parameters; distance, level, etc.

Notes

• Be sure to match the speaker cable to the appropriate terminal on the components: + to + and - to -. If the cables are reversed, the sound will be distorted and will lack base.
• If you use front speakers with low maximum input rating, adjust the volume carefully to avoid excessive output on the speakers.
• Do not remove the front cover of supplied speaker.

Speaker Positioning

In the case of normal position use 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.

Speaker Positioning Example

Mini Glossary for Audio Stream & Surround mode

dts

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.

□□ DIGITAL

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.

PRO LOGIC

Use this mode when playing movie or Dolby Digital 2 channel which carries the "DOLBY" 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.

PROLOGIC (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, and provides a wide and deep sound space. The Music mode includes controls that allow the sound to be tailored to individual listening tastes.

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 SOUND MODE repeatedly until the sound mode you want appears in the display window as below.

Each time you press SOUND MODE button, the sound mode is changed in the following order; PRO LOGIC → PL2 MOVIE → PL2 MUSIC → PL2 MATRIX → 3D SURROUND → BYPASS

When DVD is inserted.

You can change the stream of DVD (Dolby Digital, DTS, PCM, etc) by pressing the AUDIO button on the remote during playback. Although the DVD contents differ from disc to disc, the following explains the basic operation when this feature is used.

Each time you press AUDIO button, the sound mode of DVD is changed as the following order;

For your reference

• The DVD/VCR Combi receiverr memorizes the last mode
settings for each source individually.
- You can identify the encoding format of program software by looking at its packaging.

Notes

• Video Programme System (VPS)

The Video Programme System (VPS) ensures that the TV programmes that you have programmed for timer recording will be recorded exactly from their beginning to end, even if the actual broadcasting time differs from the scheduled time due to delayed start, or if the programme is extended beyond its scheduled time. Also, if a programme is interrupted, for example, if a news flash is inserted, the recording will also be interrupted automatically and resumed when the programme continues. The VPS signal is broadcast by the TV station and this controls the timer in the video recorder. VPS should be set ON for all timer recordings from TV stations broadcasting these signals. It should be set OFF for all timer recordings from TV stations that are not broadcasting these signals.
