About Discs—Continued

Handling discs

• Do not touch the playback side of a disc.

• Do not attach paper or tape to discs.

Cleaning discs

• Fingersprints and dust on a disc can cause picture and sound deterioration. Wipe the disc from the center outwards with a soft cloth. Always keep discs clean.

• If you cannot wipe off the dust with a soft cloth, wipe the disc lightly with a slightly moistened soft cloth and finish with a dry cloth.
• Do not use any type of solvent, such as thinner, benzene, commercial cleaners or antistatic spray for vinyl LPs. These solvents may damage discs.

Storing discs

• Do not store discs in locations subject to direct sunlight or near heat sources.
• Do not store discs in locations subject to moisture or dust, such as a bathroom or near a humidifier.
• Store discs in cases. Store each case vertically. Stacking or placing objects directly on a disc may cause it to warp.

Please check the following points first. It is possible that the cause may lie with other connected equipment, so refer to the Instruction Manual of your other equipment as well.

The numbers shown at the end of a line indicate pages for reference.

Power-related problems

Power does not turn on

• Make sure that the power cord has not fallen out of the outlet.
• Unplug the power cord from the outlet, wait at least five seconds, and plug it back in again.

Sound-related problems

No sound

• Could the power cord have fallen out of the outlet?
• Make sure that the connecting cables are firmly connected. (page 13)
• Insert RCA-type plugs all the way into the jack.
• It is possible that the player is being affected by a strong magnetic field, such as produced by a television. Move the player away from the television.

About the sound quality

• Changing the polarity of the power plug will sometimes improve the sound. The sound quality will stabilize ten to thirty minutes after the power is turned on. Please note that the sound quality will deteriorate if you bundle the audio connection cable together with speaker cables.

Video-related problems

Playback image is occasionally distorted

• Check whether the disc is dirty.
• The image may be somewhat distorted while searching forward or backward. This is not a malfunction of the player.

Frozen image is blurred

• Use the Operation Setting to adjust the Pause/Still. (page 72)

Brightness of the playback image is unsteady. Or, noise is present in the playback image

• If you've connected the DV-S155X via a video deck or a television with built-in video recorder, copy-protection is being applied. Connect the DV-S155X directly to your television.
• On some televisions or monitors, the color level may become slightly lighter or the tint may change during playback. Also, some discs may produce noise in the image because of their high resolution. In such cases, adjust your television or monitor to get the optimal picture.

Picture does not appear on the television screen

• Make sure that the correct input is selected on the television to which the DV-S155X is connected.
• If the same image is displayed for an extended time while the player is stopped or paused, the screen saver function will operate. In this case, press the button to defeat the screen saver. Press the button once again to begin playback. The screen saver will operate even if a television is not connected, such as when playing a CD.
• If you've connected the DV-S155X to the component jacks of your television, select the "Interlaced" setting. (page 64)

Picture is stretched vertically or horizontally

• The TV Shape setting is not appropriate for your television. Make settings as explained in "Initial setup" or "Advanced setup." (pages 23, 64)

Problems with disc playback

Disc won't play

• When playing a disc recorded in DTS format, you must connect the digital output jack to a DTS-compatible decoder. If a DTS-compatible decoder is not connected to the digital output jack when you play back, an extreme level of noise will be output from the DV-S155X's analog audio output jacks.
• Make sure that the disc is a type that the DV-S155X is able to play. (page 74)
• Check the region number. (page 3)
• If the Parental Lock function is active, defeat it or change the level. (page 72)

There's a time lag before playback begins

• For DVDs and for CDs that contain a large number of songs, a certain amount of time is required for the disc to be read.

Skips occur in the sound

• The sound may skip if the player is subjected to vibration, if the disc has a large scratch, or if the disc is dirty.

Can't memorize songs or scenes

• Make sure that a disc is inserted in the player, and that the song or scene you are attempting to memorize is on that disc. Some DVDs prohibit memory operations.

Disc is inserted, but won't play

• Make sure that the correct side of the disc is facing upward.
• Make sure that the disc is not badly soiled or scratched.
• If you suspect that condensation has occurred, leave the player for approximately one hour before attempting to operate it. (page 78)

Playing a Copy Control music CD

Noise or skips occur during playback / Player fails to recognize disc ("NO DISC" indication) / First song is not played / Finding the beginning of a song takes longer than normal / Plays from the middle of a song / Some portions won't play / Stops mid-way through playback / Indicator display is wrong

• The disc you are attempting to play is a music CD with Copy Control technology. Some music CDs with Copy Control do not comply with the CD specification. These are non-standard discs, and may not be playable on the DV-S155X.

Troubleshooting—Continued

Problems with MP3/WMA/JPEG playback

Can't play back a disc that contains MP3/WMA/JPEG files

• Make sure that the recorded disc is ISO 9660 compliant. (page 76)
• Make sure that the disc containing the files has been finalized.

Can't select a track (file) recorded on the disc

• Files will not be recognized if they have a non-standard filename extension. Change the filename extension. (page 76)
• The DV-S155X cannot recognize more than 999 folders or 671 tracks. (page 76)
• The DV-S155X does not support multi-session discs. Only the first session of a multi-session disc will be played. (page 76)

Problems with the remote control

The remote control doesn't work

• Are the batteries inserted with the correct polarity (+, -) as indicated? (page 12)
• Try replacing both batteries with fresh batteries. (Avoid mixing batteries of differing types, or old and new batteries.)
• Could the remote control be too far from the DV-S155X?
• Is there an obstruction between the remote control and the DV-S155X?
• Is strong light (fluorescent light or direct sunlight) shining on the DV-S155X's remote control optical sensor?
• If the door of your audio rack is made of colored glass, the remote control may not operate correctly.

Problems with connections to external devices

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 screen is almost square); wide-screen models are 16:9 (the screen is almost twice as wide as it is high).

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

Using a maximum of 5.1 channels Digital of audio, this high quality surround system is used in many of the finer movie theaters around the world.

The on-screen display shows which channels are active, for example showing 3/2.1. The 3 being the two front channels and the center channel; the 2 being the surround channels, and the .1 being the LFE channel.

DRM

DRM (digital rights management) is a type of server software developed to enable secure distribution of paid content over the web, recently incorporated by WMA (Windows Media Audio).

DTS

DTS stands for Digital Theater Systems. DTS is a surround system different from Dolby Digital that has become a popular surround sound format for movies.

Glossary—Continued

Dynamic range

The difference between the quietest and loudest sounds possible in an audio signal (without distorting or getting lost in noise).

Dolby Digital and DTS soundtracks are capable of a very wide dynamic range, delivering dramatic cinema-like effects.

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File)

A file format developed by Fuji Photo Film for digital still cameras. Digital cameras from various manufacturers use this compressed file format which carries date, time and thumbnail information, as well as the picture data.

File extension

A tag added to the end of a filename to indicate the type of file. For example, ".mp3" indicates an MP3 file.

ISO 9660 format

International standard for the volume and file structure of CD-ROM discs.

JPEG

A file format used for still images, such as photographs and illustrations. JPEG files are identified by the file extension .jpg" or .JPG". Most digital cameras use this format.

MP3

MP3 (MPEG1 audio layer 3) is a compressed audio file format. Files are recognized by their file extension ".mp3" or ".MP3".

MPEG audio

An audio format used on Video CDs and some DVD discs. This unit can convert MPEG audio to PCM format for wider compatibility with digital recorders and AV amplifiers. See also "PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)".

MPEG video

The video format used for Video CDs and DVDs. Video CD uses the older MPEG-1 standard, while DVD uses the newer and much better quality MPEG-2 standard.

PBC (PlayBack Control) (Video CD only)

A system of navigating a Video CD through on-screen menus recorded onto the disc. Especially good for discs that you would nor

mally not watch from beginning to end all at once—karaoke discs, for example.

PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)

The most common system of encoding digital audio, found on CDs 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, DTS and MPEG audio to PCM. See also "Digital audio".

Regions (DVD-Video only)

These associate discs and players with particular areas of the world. This unit will only play 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 at which sound is measured to be turned into digital audio data. The higher the rate, the better the sound quality, but the more digital information is generated. Standard CD audio has a sampling frequency of 44.1kHz which means 44,100 samples (measurements) per second. See also "Digital audio".

WMA

WMA is short for Windows Media Audio and refers to an audio compression technology developed by Microsoft Corporation. WMA data can be encoded by using Windows Media Player version 8 or Windows Media Player for Windows XP.
