Before you can start to enjoy the digital audio and video on DVDs, be sure that you have either performed the Setup Navigator procedure described in the previous section or made the necessary settings in the Setup screen menus as outlined in the next section to set up the player to correspond to your home system. Having made these settings, you are now ready to start using the player to enjoy DVDs, Video CDs, CDs and MP3s.

Warning

If the DVD Player is connected to the TV or amplifier through the analog audio jacks, do not play DTS- encoded discs. Excessive noise may be output from the analog stereo jacks, which may damage the connected equipment.

To reproduce DTS surround sounds, digital connection to an amplifier with a DTS decoder is needed.

•The disc tray closes, and playback begins.

•The appropriate audio sampling rate indicator lights.

•MP3 only: It may take a few seconds for the player to locate the track on the disc, depending on the complexity of the file structure. During this time, “Please wait a moment” is displayed.

•Depending on the disc, a menu may be displayed. If a menu is displayed, proceed to step 5.

•

Noise is output if you make digital audio connections to a

 

receiver or amplifier that does not have a built-in decoder. Check

 

that the digital audio output format selected in the

 

Audio menu corresponds to the audio components you have

 

made connections to (pages 19, 44, 45).

•

The TV screen size is factory set to present the wide screen

 

format (16:9 aspect ratio). If you have a standard TV screen (4:3

 

aspect ratio), this setting can be changed to match your TV

 

screen size in the Video 1 menu (pages 18, 48).

•

Do not move the DVD Player during playback. Doing so may

 

damage the disc.

•

Use 0 on the remote controller or DVD Player to open and close

 

the disc tray. Do not touch the disc tray while it is moving. Doing

 

so may cause the DVD Player to malfunction.

•

Do not press down on the disc tray or put any objects other than

 

playable discs on the disc tray. Doing so may cause the DVD

 

Player to malfunction.

•

In many instances, a menu screen appears when playback of a

 

movie is complete. Prolonged display of an on-screen menu may

 

damage your television set, permanently etching that image onto

 

its screen. To avoid this, be sure to press 7 once the movie is

 

complete.
