DVD30 UNIVERSAL DISC PLAYER
SETUP MENUS
CD Digital Direct -
EXPERT
• Default setting: Off
Setting this to ‘On’ increases CD audio quality by bypass-
ing certain audio circuits in the player that audio signal
would otherwise pass through. However, this must be set
to ‘Off ’ for proper playback of DTS encoded CDs.
To help you gauge the correct gain levels, set the Test Tone
to ‘On’ (test tone from just that speaker) or ‘Auto’ (test
tone from each speaker in turn, excluding the subwoofer)
then adjust the gain so that all speakers appear to be the
same volume from your listening position.
• You can adjust the ’Test Tone’ setting only when the
player is stopped.
• Many AV amplifiers allow you to make similar settings
at the amplifier stage. In this case, set the channel levels
at the player or the amplifier, not both.
• As the test tone plays through a speaker, its name is
highlighted.
TV Screen
• Set in Setup Navigator (Default: 16:9 (Wide))
If you have a widescreen TV, select the ‘16:9 (Wide)’
setting– widescreen DVD software is then shown using
the full screen area. When playing software recorded in
conventional (4:3) format, the settings on your TV will
determine how the material is presented—see the manual
that came with your TV for details on what options are
available. If your TV does not have settings for how 4:3
sources look, choose the ‘16:9(Compressed)’ setting. The
picture you see on your TV will be determined by the disc.
If you have a conventional TV, choose either ‘4:3 (Letter
Box)’ or ‘4:3 (Pan & Scan)’. In Letter Box mode,
widescreen software is shown with black bars at the top
and bottom of the screen. Pan & Scan chops the sides off
widescreen material to make it fit the 4:3 screen (so even
though the picture looks larger on the screen, you’re
actually seeing less of the movie).
Component Video
Default setting: Progressive
Controls component video output format when the
DVD30 is using the component video output connectors.
• Select ’Progressive’ if the associated display device
provides a progressive-scan component video input
connector.
• Select ’Interlace’ if the associated display device does
not provide a progressive-scan component video input
connector.
When ‘Progressive’ is selected:
– The picture might appear stretched on the associated
display device screen if a video source recorded in
4:3 format is present and the DVD30 or the display
device is configured for a 16:9 aspect ratio. To
correct this, configure the DVD30 or the display
device for a 4:3 aspect ratio.
