Video post-processing (lip-sync.)
Delay (NTSC/PAL)
Modern displays and video scalers often employ digital video processing that can introduce a significant video delay. The ‘Delay’ menu items allow correction of this effect by delaying the audio soundtrack up to 150 milliseconds. The amount of correction required in a given system is best determined by experimentation.
nIf the interlaced video outputs of the DV29 are in use and the display is converting the signal to progressive scan then we recommend a delay of
nIf the progressive video output of the DV29 is in use, the player corrects automatically for its own processing delays and it is unlikely that additional delay will be necessary. Therefore, start by setting these items to 0ms (no delay).
Trim set-up
The relative sensitivity (volume) of different speakers can lead to some speakers sounding disproportionately loud or quiet, relative to others in the system. The trims setting of your DV29 can help to address this inbalance.
This page is relevant only if you are using the analogue audio outputs of the DV29 to connect to your amplifier/receiver. If this is not the case, set all the trims to be 0 dB.

Trims
Trims for all the speakers can be set using the associated sliders. These settings are useful if the speakers have different sensitivities (and so have different volumes for the same input levels). The trims can be set in 1dB steps.
Subwoofer/Stereo+Sub trims
Both the ‘Subwoofer’ and the ‘Stereo+Sub’ trims control the subwoofer trim setting. ‘Subwoofer’ is the trim used when

You will see there are four dashes and a padlock symbol. Normally the padlock symbol will be open and this means the parental control is unlocked. Under this condition the rating setting may be freely changed.
To lock the parental control, choose a suitable four digit number. Don’t forget your password as you will need to know it to unlock the player. Highlight ‘Password’ and enter your four digit number using the numerical keys on the handset. When all four digits have been entered, press OK on the handset. The player is now locked and you will not be able to change the rating setting.
To unlock the parental control, highlight ‘Password’ and enter your four digit number, followed by OK.

Rating
The rating setting is used in conjunction with the password to restrict the content of DVD titles that may be played. To change this setting the parental control must be unlocked.
The term ‘Parental level’ refers to a standard defined for DVDs. DVD movies may have a parental level between 1 and 8. Note that this only applies to DVD video discs that have the parental level correctly implemented. Some DVD video titles do not respond to parental control settings, and Video CDs have no mechanism for parental control.
Once the rating level has been set, DVD titles with parental level higher than the setting will not play. Sometimes DVD video titles may be produced that have the parental level set for specific scenes, so a disc will play but skip or substitute certain scenes.
