Audio CDs

Audio CDs (8 and 12 cm).

CD-R, CD-RW

Most CD-R (one recording only) and CD-RW discs (rewritable).

This player can play most CD-R discs.CD-Rs written during a multisession recording can also

be played, provided that the session has ended before the disc is played (depending on the write

software).However,depending on the condition of the CD-writer,computer and the disc used,

you may find that not all discs will play successfully.When playing a CD-R disc,it is completely

normal for the unit to take up to 20 seconds to recognise the disc before starting to play. If the

disc is not recognised after a period of 20 seconds,remove the disc,and then insert it again. •

Irrespective of the actual recording capacity of the CD-R,do not use its full capacity.• CD-Rs

should be preferably used instead of CD-RWs (rewritable CDs) as,in certain cases,CD-RW

playback may be faulty.• Use reliable, good-quality CD write software. • Close all other

applications on the computer to ensure reliable CD-R disc recording.

DivX files

DivX is the name of a revolutionary new video codec which is based on the new MPEG-4 compression

standard for video.Whether DivX files play correctly on your player or not depends on the preparation and

production of the audio and video files,the codecs and the type of recording equipment used,as well as on

your computer’s parameters.It is therefore possible that you cannot play a DivX file or that part or all of it is

defective.It also sometimes happens that you can play the images (video) but not the sound (audio).

DivX disc compatibility with this player is limited as follows:• The maximum resolution of the DivX file is

below 720x576 (W x H) pixels.• DivX filenames should not exceed 56 characters.• If the video and audio

structure of the recorded file is not interleaved,either video or audio is outputted.• If the file is recorded

with GMC,the unit supports only 1-point GMC.GMC is the acronym for Global Motion Compensation.It

is an encoding tool specified in the MPEG4 standard.Some MPEG4 encoders,like DivX or XviD,have this

option.There are different levels of GMC encoding,usually called 1-point,2-point,or 3-point GMC.• DivX

files with subtitles in .SRT,.SUB and .SMI formats can be played.Correct playback of all languages may not be

possible as some characters may be missing.

mp3 files

CD-R and CD-RW discs containing audio files in mp3 format.With regard to CD-R mp3 discs,

please follow all the recommendations for CD-R above, along with the comments below:

• Your mp3 files should be ISO 9660 or JOLIET format. ISO 9660 format and Joliet mp3 files are

compatible with Microsoft DOS and Windows,as well as with Apple Mac.These two formats

are the most widely used.• mp3 filenames should not exceed 8 characters and should end with

the “.mp3” extension.General name format:Title.mp3.When composing your title ensure that

you use 8 characters or less,have no spaces in the name,and avoid the use of special characters

including (. , / , \ ,= ,+). • The total number of files on a disc should be less than 999.The total

number of folders should be less than 499.• Use a decompression transfer rate of at least 128

kB/sec (kilobytes/second) when recording mp3 files. Sound quality with mp3 files basically

depends on the rate of compression/ decompression you choose. Obtaining audio CD quality

sound requires an analogue/digital sampling rate,that is conversion to mp3 format,of at least

128 kB/sec and up to 160 kB/sec. Choosing higher rates,such as 192 kB/sec or more, only rarely

produces even better sound quality. Conversely, files with sampling rates below 128 kB/sec will

not play properly. • Do not try recording copyright-protected mp3 files.“Securized” files are

encrypted and code-protected to prevent illegal copying.You must not copy such files.

WMA (Windows Media Audio) files

CD-R with WMA files.

• WMA filenames should not exceed 8 characters,and should end with the “.wma” extension.General

name format:Title.wma.When composing your title ensure that you use 8 characters or less,have no

spaces in the name,and avoid the use of special characters including (.,/,\,=,+).• The total number of files

on a disc should be less than 999.

Windows Media and the Windows logo are trademarks or registered trademarks of Microsoft Corporation in

the United States and/or other countries.

Important:The above recommendations cannot be taken as a guarantee that the DVD player will play mp3

or WMA recordings, or as an assurance of sound quality.You should note that certain technologies and

methods for mp3 file recording on CD-Rs prevent optimal playback of these files on your DVD player (i.e.

degraded sound quality and even,in some cases, inability of the player to read the file).

Kodak Picture CDs

Memory Cards recognised by the reader

The following cards can be read: SD, MMC, Memory Stick, Memory Stick Pro, Compact Flash 1, Compact Flash

2, and Smartmedia – Maximum card capacity must not exceed 2 Gigabytes – Maximum number of files must

not exceed 100.

DVD copy protection

In accordance with the DVD standard, your DVD player is equipped with a Copy Protection system, which can

be switched on and off by the DVD disc itself, in order to make any recording of the relevant DVD disc onto a

videotape of very poor picture quality, or even impossible. “This product incorporates copyright protection

technology that is protected by method claims of certain U.S. patents and other intellectual property rights

owned by Macrovision Corporation and other rights owners. Use of this copyright protection technology must be

authorized by Macrovision Corporation, and is intended for home use only unless otherwise authorized by

Macrovision Corporation. Reverse engineering or disassembly is prohibited.”

Note on DivX files

Before playing DivX or mpeg4 files, please be sure of their origin and that you have legally purchased or rented

the contents. Pirate copying is illegal and may result in sanctions. Private copies of your own material for your own

use may be legal in some countries. Make sure you are aware of any applicable laws.

Basic connections (DVD player + TV + video recorder)

Please refer to the extra connection sheet for different connection options.

1. Connect the DVD player Scart socket (TV AUDIO VIDEO OUT) to the television set’s

Scart socket (AV1, EXT1,AUX1) using a Scart lead (not provided).

- OR -

1. If your television set does not have two Scart sockets, connect the DVD player to the

video recorder’s AV2 socket using a Scart lead (not provided). If you have a satellite or

cable receiver you can also connect the DVD player to the receiver’s second Scart socket.

Note: If your video recorder only has one Scart socket, but has a modulator, use the aerial cable to connect the

video recorder to the television set, adjust the video recorder’s modulator, then connect the DVD player to the

video recorder’s Scart socket.

2. Connect the video recorder (or satellite receiver) to the television set as shown in the

video recorder’s (or satellite receiver’s) user guide.

3. Connect the DVD player to the mains socket using the mains lead.

4. Switch on the devices.

Note: If one of the devices is not working, check that all the cables have been inserted properly into the sockets

which they should be connected to.

Other connection options

VIDEO OUT socket

This socket (yellow) is also known as a composite video socket.The video cable (not

supplied) usually comes with two audio cables (white and red).The picture quality obtained

using a video connection is poorer compared to that obtained using a Scart connection.

AUDIO L (left) and AUDIO R (right) sockets

These are analogue audio output sockets.The AUDIO L socket and cable are white, while the

AUDIO R socket and cable are red. Connect the DVD player’s AUDIO L and R sockets to the

television set’s AUDIO L and R sockets using audio cables (not supplied).

Note: If your television set only has one audio socket connect it to the DVD player’s left socket (white).

Component output (Y, Pr, Pb / Y, Cr, Cb)

YPrPb

sockets deliver an optimum image quality due to the separation of the video signal

into three separate components (comparable with RGB separation in a Scart-Peritel cable).

Note: the video signal available from these 3 sockets depends on the choice made in the Video Out menu.

In order to obtain the best possible image quality, always use very high quality cables for the

connections.Your dealer can provide Y, Pr, Pb cables that are sold together and come in the

standard colour codes (green, red and blue) used for these types of sockets and cables.

Note: do not forget to also connect the audio cables, because Component cables only transmit images, and not

sound.

Optical and coaxial Out sockets

The digital sound from a Video DVD in playback is permanently available at the optical and

coaxial sockets on your player. Use one of these sockets by connecting it to a decoder or a

DTS or Dolby Digital amplifier. Some of these appliances are equipped with a coaxial In

socket (COAXIAL) or an optical In socket (OPTICAL), while others are equipped with both

sockets. Choose one of the two connections.
