Before Operating the System (see pages 10 to 13)

Playable Disc Types:

If you play back an NTSC disc with this setting set to “PAL,” you can watch the playback pictures (the disc will be reproduced using “PAL 60” format), but the TV screen may roll over upward and downward rapidly.

If you play back a PAL disc with this setting set to “NTSC,” you can watch the playback pictures, but the following symptoms may occur:

The items on the disc menu will be blurred, and be shown slightly shifted when highlighted.

The aspect ratio of the picture may differ from the original aspect ratio.

The picture movement is not smooth.

Notes on MP3/WMA/JPEG/MPEG-4 discs

MP3/WMA/JPEG/MPEG-4 discs are required a longer readout time than regular CDs. (It depends on the complexity of the group/file configuration.)

Some MP3/WMA/JPEG/MPEG-4 files cannot be played back and will be skipped. This results from their recording processes and conditions.

This system can play back MP3/WMA/JPEG/MPEG-4

files with the extension code <.mp3>, <.wma>, <.jpg>, or <.asf> (regardless of the letter case—upper/lower).

About audio format

Linear PCM: Uncompressed digital audio, the same format used for CDs and most studio masters.

Dolby Digital: Compressed digital audio, developed by Dolby Laboratories, which enables multi-channel encode to create the realistic surround sound.

DTS (Digital Theater Systems): Compressed digital audio, developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc., which enables multi-channel like Dolby Digital. As the compression ratio is lower than for Dolby Digital, it provides wider dynamic range and better separation.

When playing back a DVD Audio disc recorded by MLP (Meridian Lossless Packing; a lossless audio compression system that can completely recreate the PCM signal), the signals recognized as the linear PCM signal, however, no indicator lights up in the display window.

Daily Operations—Playback (see pages 14 to 18)

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 if 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:

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 a malfunction of this System.

For MP3/WMA playback...

When making MP3/WMA discs, use ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2 for the disc format.

It is recommended that you make each MP3/WMA file at a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at bit rate of 128 kbps. This System cannot play back files made at bit rate of less than 64 kbps.

Playing Back a Tape:

In Relay Play, the reverse side of the tape in deck A does not playback. If the playing time of the tape in deck A is less than 12 seconds, the System rewind the tape and playback again.

Daily Operations—Sound&Other Adjustments

(see pages 19 to 23)

Adjusting the Volume:

Be sure to turn down the volume before connecting or putting the headphones.

Creating Your Own Sound Modes—User Mode:

When you unplug the AC power cord or if a power failure occurs, the USER mode settings will be erased in a few days. If this happens, set the USER Modes again.

Using Surround Mode:

Dolby Pro Logic II modes:

Dolby Pro Logic II has developed multichannel playback format to decode the 2 channel sources—Linear PCM digital source, MP3 source, WMA source, Dolby Digital

2ch, DTS 2ch, and Dolby Surround encoded source—into 5.1 channel.

Dolby Pro Logic II enables to reproduce spacious sound from original sound without adding any new sounds and tonal colorations.

While you use the headphones, the Surround Mode will canceled temporarily (“STEREO” will appear on the display).

Some DVD Audios prohibit downmix.

When you change the Surround Mode while playing back such a disc, “MULTI CH” appears on the display and you cannot change the Surround Mode.

When you select the Surround Mode to “STEREO” and start playback such a disc, “LR ONLY” appears on the display and the System plays back the left front and right front signals.

When you use the headphones while playing back such a disc, “LR ONLY” appears on the display and the System plays back the left front and right front signals.

During MPEG-4 playback, Dolby Pro Logic II modes will be canceled temporarily.
