TV Display

Selects the aspect ratio of the TV set
to be connected.

• NORMAL/PS (4:3 Pan & Scan

mode):Used when you connect a
normal TV to the system. Displays a
wide picture on the whole TV
screen with a portion (right and left
sides of the picture) automatically
cut off.

• NORMAL/LB (4:3 Letterbox mode):

Used when you connect a normal
TV to the system. Displays a wide
picture with bands displayed on the
upper and lower portions of the
screen.

• WIDE (16:9 Widescreen mode):

Used when you connect a wide-
screen TV to the system or a normal
4:3 TV, that can be turned to 16:9
mode.

NORMAL/PS

NORMAL/LB

WIDE

Notes:
• Some widescreen discs that do not

permit Pan & Scan mode playback
are automatically played in Letter-
box mode.

• Depending on the DVD, 4:3 Letter-

box may be selected automatically
instead of 4:3 Pan & Scan and vice
versa.

• You must also set the screen mode

on your widescreen TV to “FULL”.

• If WIDE is selected and a normal TV

is connected, 16:9 content will
appear distorted during playback
(objects look thin).

• If WIDE is selected and a normal 4:3

TV, switchable to 16:9 mode, is
connected, to avoid vertically
distorted videos the TV must be
turned to 16:9 mode manually when
16:9 content is played. This is done
automatically when the unit is
connected to the TV via SCART, but
then the TV must be turned to 4:3
mode manually when 4:3 content is
played, otherwise it will be shown
compressed vertically.

Your TV is either a PAL or multi-
system TV.

The initial Default TV Type setting of
this system is “PAL“. This setting will
allow PAL discs to play properly on
both PAL TV's and multi-system TV's.
And with this setting, NTSC discs will
also be played properly, as the unit
will convert NTSC signals to the
PAL60 format which is compatible
with most PAL TVs and all multi TV
types. Only old PAL TVs are not
compatible with PAL60 and cannot be
used with NTSC discs (no matter
which setting is made).

No further adjustment is necessary.
You can skip to the next section.

If you use a multi-system TV and
want to see NTSC discs in the
original NTSC format (may improve
the video performance with some
NTSC discs), MULTI should be
selected.

If you wish to change the TV Type
setting, follow the 3 steps below.

1. Press SETUP to enter SETUP

MENU. Select GENERAL SETUP
(see page 27), then press ENTER.

2. Select TV TYPE using (

D/E), then

press (

) to go to the right option

list. Select MULTI, NTSC or PAL
using (

D/E), then press ENTER to

confirm your selection.

3. Press SETUP again to exit SETUP

MENU. The TV type selected will
be activated.

Note
• You can change TV system

temporarily without changing the
Default setting by pressing N/P
(NTSC/PAL) on the remote control.
However, when power is switched
off or the disc drawer is opened, the
TV type will automatically revert
back to the initial Default setting.

The initial default Video Output Mode
setting for this system is "S-VIDEO"
which is the correct setting when you
are connecting this system to your TV
using either the Video Out jack, the S-
Video output socket or the SCART
connector. There is no need to
change the video output mode
setting.

A composite video signal is always
available at the Video Out jack,
should you wish to use this as your
preferred connection method. If you
wish to choose an RGB signal as your
video output, this is available via the
SCART socket only and is selected by
accessing the VIDEO OUT options in
the menu. If you choose this option
you will not be able to see a video
signal, or menus, when connecting to
the S-Video output. The VIDEO OUT
option must be reset to S-VIDEO, in
the menu, using the SCART
connection before this option
becomes available.

The 3 steps below indicate how to
select a different video output setting.
They are for information only. 
Your system has been preset to the 
S-VIDEO setting and it must remain in
the S-VIDEO setting in order to view
the picture on your TV.

1. Press SETUP to enter SETUP

MENU. Use (

D/E) to select

GENERAL SETUP (see page 27),
and then press ENTER.

2. Select VIDEO OUT using (

D/E),

then press 

 to go to the right

option list. Select S-Video or RGB
using (

D/E), then press ENTER to

confirm your selection.

3. Press SETUP again to exit SETUP

MENU.

included with your system.

Path: Main Page 

➞ Speaker Set Up

Page 

➞ Audio Mode

The Audio Mode switches auto-
matically to the type of audio on the
disc you are playing.

• If you play a DVD with either Dolby

Digital or DTS audio, the "5.1" mode
is selected automatically and sound
is heard from all 5 satellites and the
subwoofer.

• If you play a DVD with a stereo

soundtrack (PCM only, not Dolby
Digital 2.0), a VCD or an audio CD,
the "Pro Logic" mode is selected
automatically as default setting. 

Notes:
• With all discs containing no Dolby

Digital or DTS audio the default
listening mode will be stereo, as
indicated in the front display (no Pro
Logic indicator is on), and the sound
will only be heard from the left and
right front speakers and the subwo-
ofer. The center and rear speakers
will have output only when a Pro
Logic listening mode is selected
with the LISTENING button on the
remote.

Important
This Audio Mode page is for indica-
tion of the audio mode switch only, no
settings must be made manually,
otherwise the sound from the
speakers of the system may become
distorted or the surround effect be
destroyed.
