OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS - THE DVD MENU DISPLAY

All of these menus are accessed from the blue Cambridge Logo screen that appears when the DVD player is on with no disc in the tray. Pressing the MENU button on the remote brings up the DVD menu display. It is accessed by the cursors and select button in the centre of the remote.

Channel Delay: Allows the distance between the listening position and the centre, subwoofer, rear left and rear right speakers to be individually set (in cm). This is to enable the surround sound to be optimised for different listening room sizes and shapes.

General Setup

TV Display: Allows you to alter between 16.9 widescreen and 4.3 conventional image.

OSD Lang: Alters the language that the menu will appear in.

SCART: This switches the component video outputs between component and RGB. RGB can only be used with the dedicated Cambridge Audio RGB Trigger to Scart cable.

Screensaver: If the DVD is left on and inactive, it will switch to a screensaver to minimise energy consumption and screen burn. It can be switched off here.

AM Step Controls the increments in which the AM band is scanned.

Speaker Set Up

Downmix: Switches between a 5.1 analogue output, a dual mono (LT/RT), a virtual surround (where a "surround" effect is created from two speakers) and a stereo signal from the stereo analogue output.

Front, Centre and Rear Speaker Settings: adjusts the DVD decoder to compensate between large and small speakers and the size of the signal it sends to the subwoofer.

Audio Setup Page

SPDIF output: Switches the digital audio section of the decoder/output between bitstream (Raw) and uncompressed stereo digital out (PCM). The bitstream (Raw) must be selected to enable surround sound (Dolby digital/DTS) to be sent to the decoder and the audio digital output (coaxial or optical). If a only a stereo speaker system is to be used then it is only necessary to set this option to PCM, then only two channels of information are decoded and sent to the stereo audio outputs (and the coax/optical digital audio output).

LPCM Out: This sets the maximum data rate for the digital audio output (not the actual data rate) for connection to an external decoding amplifier. The internal decoder will downsample if the recorded material has a higher audio data rate although it will not upsample if the recorded material has a lower audio data rate.

Pro-LogicII: When switched on Dolby Pro-Logic II allows a surround effect from a stereo source. The settings are as follows:

On/Off - Switches PLII on and off.

Mode - Switches between Dolby Pro-Logic II music and Dolby Pro Logic II movies.

Panorama - This is an additional setting that adds additional space and depth to the Pro Logic II settings.
