Condensation
Condensation may form inside the player if it is
brought into a warm room from outside, or if
the temperature of the room rises quickly.
Although the condensation won’t damage the
player, it may temporarily impair its
performance. Leave it to adjust to the warmer
temperature for about an hour before
switching on.
Moving the player
If you need to move this unit, first remove the
disc, if there's one loaded, and close the disc
tray. Next, press
STANDBY/ON
to switch
the power to standby, checking that the
-OFF-
indication in the display goes off. Lastly,
disconnect the power cord.
Never lift or move the unit during playback —
discs rotate at a high speed and may be
damaged.
Caution for when the unit is
installed in a rack with a glass door
Do not press the
OPEN/CLOSE
button on
the remote control to open the disc table while
the glass door is closed. The door will hamper
movement of the disc table, and the disc table
could be damaged.
Screen sizes and disc formats
DVD-Video discs come in several different
screen aspect ratios, ranging from TV
programs, which are generally 4:3, to
CinemaScope widescreen movies, with an
aspect ratio of up to about 7:3.
Televisions, too, come in different aspect
ratios; ‘standard’ 4:3 and widescreen 16:9.
Widescreen TV users
If you have a widescreen TV, the
TV Screen
setting (page 36) of this player should be set to
16:9 (Wide)
or
16:9 (Compressed)
.
When you watch discs recorded in 4:3 format
with the
16:9 (Wide)
setting, you can use the
TV controls to select how the picture is
presented. Your TV may offer various zoom and
stretch options; see the instructions that came
with your TV for details.
Please note that some movie aspect ratios are
wider than 16:9, so even though you have a
widescreen TV, these discs will still play in a
‘letter box’ style with black bars at the top and
bottom of the screen.
Standard TV users
If you have a standard TV, the
TV Screen
setting (page 36) of this player should be set to
4:3 (Letter Box)
or
4:3 (Pan & Scan)
, depending
on which you prefer.
Set to
4:3 (Letter Box)
, widescreen discs are
shown with black bars top and bottom.
Set to
4:3 (Pan & Scan)
, widescreen discs are
shown with the left and right sides cropped.
Although the picture looks larger, you don’t
actually see the whole picture.
Please note that many widescreen discs
override the player’s settings so that the disc is
shown in letter box format regardless of the
setting.
Note
• Using the
16:9 (Wide)
or
16: 9
(Compressed)
setting with a standard 4:3
TV, or either of the 4:3 settings with a
widescreen TV, will result in a distorted
picture.
