Additional Information
Learning More about This System
Getting Started
(see pages 3 to 6)
Changing the Scanning Mode:
• To enjoy the progressive video picture, connect a TV with
the progressive video input using component video cord.
Daily Operations—Playback
(see pages 10 to 15)
Listening to the Radio:
• If you store a new station into an occupied preset number,
the previously stored station in that number will be erased.
• When you unplug the AC power cord or a power failure
occurs, the preset stations will be erased in a few days. If
this happens, preset the stations again.
Playing Back a Disc:
• When using an 8 cm disc, place it on the inner circle of the
disc tray.
• On some DVD, SVCD, or VCD discs, the actual operations
may be different from what is explained in this manual, due
to the programming and disc structure; such differences are
not malfunction of this System.
• When discs* in more than one tray are loaded on the disc
trays, they are played in sequence as follows. (When DVD
Video, DVD Audio or SVCD/VCD with PBC is loaded in
the System, playback of the disc next to these discs will not
start.):
Ex.: When DISC 2 is selected:
DISC 2]
DISC 3]
DISC 4]
DISC 5]
DISC 1]
(then stops)
* When no disc is loaded on the disc tray, the disc number
is skipped.
• You can exchange discs while playing or selecting another
disc.
• Some DVD Audio discs prohibit downmixed output. When
you play back such a disc, “LR ONLY” appears on the
display and the System plays back the left front and right
front signals.
• 3D Phonic setting is also applied to the optical digital
output signals through the OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT
terminal.
• For DVD-VR playback...
– When making a disc, use the UDF-Bridge format.
– For details about DVD-VR format and play list, refer to
the manual of the recording equipment.
– If you use a DVD-RAM with a cartridge, take the disc
out of the cartridge before inserting.
– You cannot use reverse slow motion, Program Play, and
Random Play.
• For DivX playback...
– The System supports DivX 5.x, 4.x and 3.11.
– The System supports the DivX files whose resolution is
720 x 480 pixels or less (30 fps), and 720 x 576 pixels or
less (25 fps).
– Audio stream should conform to MPEG 1 Audio Layer-
2 or MPEG 1 Audio Layer-3 (MP3).
– The System does not support GMC (Global Motion
Compression).
– The file encoded in the interlaced scanning mode may
not be played back correctly.
– The System has its own Registration code for DivX
playback.
– If necessary, you can confirm the Registration code of
your System (see page 38).
• For MP3/JPEG playback...
– This System cannot play “packet write” discs.
– MP3/JPEG discs require a longer readout time than
regular CDs. (It depends on the complexity of the group/
file configuration.)
– Some MP3/JPEG files cannot be played back and will be
skipped. This results from their recording processes and
conditions.
– When making MP3 discs, use ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level
2 for the disc format.
– This System can play back MP3/JPEG files with the
extension code <.mp3> or <.jpg> (regardless of the letter
case—upper/lower).
– It is recommended that you make each MP3 file at a
sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at a bit rate of 128 kbps.
– This System can recognize the total of 1000 tracks and of
99 groups (each group can contain up to 150 tracks).
Those exceeding the maximum number cannot be
recognized.
– This System can show up to 23 characters of the file
(track) names (except for extension) and 30 characters of
the ID3 tags on the display and the TV screen.
– Some characters or symbols will not be shown (and will
be blanked) on the display.
• When using Resume on SVCD or VCD with PBC, the
playback might start on a position slightly different from
where you have stopped.
• You can use Resume only for the DVD/SVCD/VCD/DivX
except for some discs—depending how the disc is
programmed.
Playing Back from the PC:
• Check if your PC equipped with the CD-ROM drive is
running on Windows
R
98*, Windows
R
98SE*, Windows
R
Me*, Windows
R
2000*, or Windows
R
XP* and prepare its
CD-ROM.
• DO NOT turn off the System or disconnect the USB cable
while installing the drivers and for several seconds each
time you PC is recognizing the System.
• Use a full speed USB cable (version 1.1).
• If your PC does not recognize the System, disconnect the
USB cable and connect it again. If this does not work,
restart Windows.
• The drivers installed can be recognized only when the USB
cable is connected between the System and your PC.
