HDMI was developed to provide the technologies of HDCP (High Definition Contents Protection). HDCP is used to protect digital content transmitted and received. HDMI has the capability to support standard, enhanced, or high-definition video plus standard to multi-channel surround-sound audio, HDMI features include uncompressed digital video, a bandwidth of up to 5 gigabytes per second, one connector (instead of several cables and connectors), and communication between the AV source and AV devices such as DTVs. HDMI, the HDMI logo and High-Definition Multimedia Interface are trademarks or registered trademarks of HDMI licensing LLC. HDMI Connection If you have a HDMI TV or monitor, you can connect it to this Home Theater System using a HDMI cable. 1. Connect the HDMI OUT jack on the Home Theater System to the HDMI jack on a HDMI compatible TV or monitor (H). 2. Set the TVs source to HDMI (refer to TVs Owners manual). 3. In stop mode, select HDMI mode by pressing HDMI on the remote control. Press RESOLUTION repeatedly to select the resolution you wish to change to then press PLAY. The DVD disc must not be playing in order to set the resolution. Notes:
No sound will be output from HDMI cable if the AUDIO setup is not set to PCM. The arrow on the cable connector body should face up for correct alignment with the connector on the Home Theater System. When you use HDMI, the other connections (Yellow VIDEO OUT, S-Video and Component Video (Pr Pb Y) will not work. If there is noise or lines on the screen, please check the HDMI cable. Tip :
When you use HDMI connection, you can change the resolution (480p, 720p, 1080i) for the HDMI output by pressing RESOLUTION on the remote control. 480i is not available. You can only change the resolution within your TVs and Monitors resolution capabilities.
- For S-VIDEO OUT connection, black and white scramble signal will appear if you select an incompatible resolution. 17 Speaker System Connection Connect the speakers using the supplied speaker cords. To obtain the best possible surround sound, adjust the speaker parameters (volume, distance, etc.). Notes:
Be sure to match the speaker cable to the appropriate terminal on the components: + to + and to . If the cables are
reversed, the sound will be distorted and will lack base. If you use front speakers with low maximum input rating, adjust the volume carefully to avoid excessive output on the speakers. 18 Speaker Positioning In the case of normal position use the 6 speakers (2 front speakers, 1 center speaker, 2 rear speakers and subwoofer). If you want to play the excellent bass sound, DTS digital surround or Dolby Digital surround, you should connect a subwoofer. Front speakers According to your listening position set up the speakers for equal distance. And by hearing position set up the interval between speakers to 45 degree. Center speaker The center speakers and front speakers are ideally the same height. But normally place it above or below the television. Rear speakers Place left and right behind the listening area. These speakers recreate sound motion and atmosphere required for surround sound playback. For best results, do not install the rear speakers too far behind the listening position and install them at or above the level of the listeners ears. It is also effective to direct the rear speakers towards a wall or ceiling to further disperse the sound. In the case of a smaller room size, if the audience is near to the rear wall set the rear speakers opposite each other, and set the rear speakers above 60 - 90 cm than the listeners ears. Subwoofer This can be placed in any front position. p u t e S m e t s y S Subwoofer Center Speaker Front Speaker

Mini Glossary Allows you to enjoy 5.1(or 6) discrete channels of high quality digital audio from DTS program sources such as discs, DVD and compact discs, etc. bearing the trademark. DTS Digital Surround delivers up to 6 channels of transparent audio and results in exceptional clarity throughout a true 360 degree sound field. The term DTS is a trademark of DTS Technology, LLC. Manufactured under license from DTS Technology, LLC. The Dolby Digital surround format lets you enjoy up to 5.1 channels of digital surround sound from a Dolby Digital program source. If you play DVDs with mark, you can enjoy even better sound quality, greater spatial accuracy, and improved dynamic range. Use this mode when playing movie or Dolby Digital 2 channel which carries the mark. This mode provides the effect of being in a movie theatre or live concert house-an effect with an intensity which can only be obtained through DOLBY PRO LOGIC SURROUND. The effect of the front/back/left/right movement of the sound image, as well as the sense of fixed position in the sound image, is much clearer and more dynamic than before.
(II) Dolby Pro Logic II creates five full-bandwidth output channels from two-channel sources. This is done using an advanced, high-purity matrix surround decoder that extracts the spatial properties of the original recording without adding any new sounds or tonal colorations. MOVIE mode:
The Movie mode is for use with stereo television shows and all programs encoded in Dolby Surround. The result is enhanced soundfield directionality that approaches the quality of discrete 5.1-channel sound. MUSIC mode:
The Music mode is for use with any stereo music recordings. MATRIX mode:
The Matrix mode is the same as the Music mode except that the directional enhancement logic is turned off. It may be used to enhance mono signals by making them seem larger. The Matrix mode may also find use in auto systems, where the fluctuations from poor FM stereo reception can otherwise cause disturbing surround signals from a logic decoder. The ultimate cure for poor FM stereo reception may be simply to force the audio to mono. 3D SURROUND This unit can produce a 3D Surround effect, using 3D Surround Sound technology, which simulates multi-channel audio playback from two conventional stereo speakers instead of the five or more speakers normally required to listen to multi-channel audio from a home theatre. This feature works with DVD discs encoded with Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby Digital audio tracks. BYPASS Software with multichannel surround audio signals is played according to the way it was recorded. 20 Shows the type of audio signal received by the VCR tuner.

A DVD Audio disc can be identified by the DVD audio logo on the disc jacket or on the disc itself. DVD Audio can provide higher quality stereo than Audio CDs with a sampling rate of up to 192kHz
(compared to 44.1kHz for CDs). DVD Audio digital sound can be delivered with up to 24 bits of data
(compared to 16 bits for a standard CD). A typical DVD Audio disc contains up to seven times the data capacity of a CD. This additional space is used for music, either Advanced Resolution multi-
channel sound quality that is closer to the artists master recording or for longer recordings. Many DVD Audio discs contain on-screen text, such as artist biographies, playlists, or lyrics. Some DVD Audio discs contain photo galleries or video clips. Note:
To enjoy maximum sound quality and surround effect of DVD Audio, you must use 5.1 channel analog audio output (5.1CH AUDIO OUT jacks on the Combi Receiver). If you use the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) for your audio connection, the sound will only be similar to CD-quality sound even though youre playing a DVD Audio disc.

Sampling frequency: within 8 - 48 kHz (MP3), within 32 - 48kHz (WMA) Bit rate: within 8 - 320kbps (MP3), 32 - 192kbps (WMA) The player cannot read an MP3/WMA file that has a file extension other than .mp3 / .wma. CD-R physical format should be ISO 9660 If you record MP3 / WMA files using software that cannot create a file system (eg. Direct-CD) it is impossible to playback MP3 / WMA files. We recommend that you use Easy-CD Creator, which creates an ISO 9660 file system. File names should have a maximum of 8 letters and must incorporate an .mp3 or .wma extension. They should not contain special letters such as /
? * : < > l etc. The total number of files on the disc should be less than 650. This Home Theater System requires discs and recordings to meet certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal playback quality. Pre-
recorded DVDs are automatically set to these standards. There are many different types of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing MP3 or WMA files) and these require certain pre-
existing conditions (see above) to ensure compatible playback. Customers should note that permission is required in order to download MP3 / WMA files and music from the Internet.
