If this happens, however, you’ll need to reset the player as outlined below. For details on setting up the player with a Progress Scan TV, see pg 14. Quick Tips Resetting to the Player’s Default Video Settings Make sure to use caution when changing the SYSTEM and OUTPUT settings. If the value selected is not compatible with your Television, you may no longer be able to see the screen. If this happens, follow the procedures below to reset the player’s settings to default. • Turn the DVD Player off using the power switch on the back of the unit. • After a few seconds, power the player on and OPEN THE DISC TRAY. • Enter one of the following codes on the remote control depending on your TV type: STOP -2 -0 -0 -2 STOP -2 -0 -0 -3 • The player is now reset to COMPOSITE Video Out and the TV SYSTEM you specified. NTSC (USA): PAL (Europe): ASPECT - 4:3 PS / 4:3 LB / 16:9 WS You can setup your DVD Player to work with normal and wide screen televisions. If you are using a wide screen TV, set this option to 16:9 WS to match the aspect ratio of your TV. When used with a normal TV (4:3 aspect ratio), the 4:3 PS setting results in the typical “Pan & Scan” display, where a movie is clipped on the sides to fit on the TV screen. The 4:3 LB setting will enable the “Letterbox” format, where the movie is presented in wide screen format with black lines at the top and bottom of the screen. OUTPUT - COMPOSITE / S-VIDEO / YCbCr Change this setting to match the type of video input jack you are using on your TV. *If you are using a Progressive Scan TV, you must change this setting FIRST, before the SYSTEM setting described above. Composite Video is the most common video connection type and is supported on most TVs. S-Video is a higher quality video signal that is separated into brightness and color channels. YCbCr, or COMPONENT video is used for TVs, Computer Monitors and Projectors that support three video inputs, one for a color channel (Yellow, Blue, Red). This setting is also used for Progressive Scan TVs. FORMAT - AUTO / INTERLACED / PROGRESSIVE Set the FORMAT according to the type of TV, Monitor or Projector you’re using. Most Televisions use INTERLACED scanning, which “draws” every other horizontal scan line with each pass. PROGRESSIVE displays however, are able to scan ALL lines (odd and even) in a single pass, resulting in a more “film-like” quality picture. Normally, this setting should be set to AUTO, where the player will detect the scanning method used by your TV, Monitor or Projector and adjust its output accordingly. 31 Audio Setup Options For Help on Using the Setup Menu, see pg 29. ANALOG - 5.1CH / 2CH The ANALOG setting controls the DVD Player’s Analog Audio Outputs. These are the Stereo Audio and 5.1 Channel Outputs covered on pages 11, 13 & 15. Select 5.1CH if you are using the 5.1 Channel outputs to connect to a Dolby-Ready Receiver or Speaker System. If you are using a TV for audio or a stereo system with only two channel inputs, this setting should be switched to 2CH, allowing you to hear all channels of Dolby/DTS 5.1 soundtracks through two speakers. DIGITAL - DOLBY / DTS / LPCM Most DVDs are produced with Dolby or DTS 5.1 Channel soundtracks. ANALOG DIGITAL D.R.C BASS 5.1CH DOLBY/DTS STANDARD OFF LANG. VIDEO AUDIO CHILD OTHERS EXIT So, normally this setting should be at the default of DOLBY/DTS. However, this setting can be set to LPCM to support DVDs featuring this type of audio format. LPCM, or Linear Pulse Code Modulation, is a stereo digital audio format typically used only with CD audio. ENTER RETURN SETUP D.R.C - STANDARD / MAXIMUM / TV MODE Sometimes called “midnight mode”, D.R.C (Dynamic Range Compression) aims to make watching a movie at low volumes more enjoyable by boosting the quieter sounds while suppressing the louder sounds. This reduction in the difference between the low and high audio levels is known as “compression”. You can adjust the level of this compression in three levels: MAXIMUM - Highest compression, STANDARD - Normal compression, and TV MODE - Optimized for smaller speakers. BASS - OFF / SMALL / LARGE You can tailor the bass response of your Sub-Woofer different room sizes with the BASS setting. The options are: OFF - No additional processing of the sub-woofer signal, SMALL - Adjusts the sub-woofer output for small rooms, and LARGE - Adjusts the sub-woofer output for large rooms. 32 Language Setup Options Setting Language Options for Setup and DVDs For Help on Using the Setup Menu, see pg 29. The Language Setup Page allows you to change the language the player will use for the On-Screen Display (OSD), as well as the default language for movies with multiple language tracks.
