Connecting up
Easy connections
• Before making or changing any connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power
cable from the AC outlet.
• The setup described here is a basic setup that allows you to play discs using just the cables
supplied with the player. In this setup, stereo audio is played through the speakers in your TV.
Important
• This player is equipped with copy protection technology. Do not connect this player to your TV
via a VCR using audio/video or S-video cables, as the picture from this player will not appear
properly on your TV. (This player may also not be compatible with some combination TV/VCRs
for the same reason; refer to the manufacturer for more information.)

Connecting using the S-video
output
If your TV (or other equipment) has an S-video
(S1) input, you can use the S-video output on
this player instead of the standard (composite)
output for a better quality picture.
•
Use an S-video cable (not supplied) to
connect the S-VIDEO OUT to an S-video
input on your TV (or monitor or AV
receiver).
Line up the small triangle above the jack with
the same mark on the plug before plugging in.
Connecting using the
component video output
You can use the component video output
instead of the standard video out jack to
connect this player to your TV (or other
equipment). This should give you the best
quality picture from the three types of video
output available.
•
Use a component video cable (not
supplied) to connect the COMPONENT
VIDEO OUT jacks to a component video
input on your TV, monitor or AV receiver.
Watching progressive scan video
from the component video outputs
This player can output progressive scan video
from the component video output. Compared
to interlace video, progressive scan video
effectively doubles the scanning rate of the
picture, resulting in a very stable, flicker-free
image.
To set up the player for use with a progressive
scan TV, see
on page 40.
When the player is set to output progressive
scan video, the
PRGSVE
indicator lights in the
front panel display.
Important
• If you connect a TV that is not compatible
with a progressive scan signal and switch
the player to progressive, you will not be
able to see any picture at all. In this case,
switch everything off and reconnect using
the supplied video cable (see
on page 11), then switch back
to
Interlace
(see below).

•
Connect the multi-channel audio
outputs on this player to the multi-channel
audio inputs on your AV receiver.
It’s convenient to use three stereo audio
cables; one for the
FRONT
, one for the
SURROUND
and one for the
CENTER
and
SUBWOOFER
channels.
You can use the SCART AV connector, or the S-
video or component video jacks to connect to
the AV receiver if you prefer.
Tip
• After connecting up and switching on, you
should change the
Audio Output Mode
setting in the Initial Setup menu from the
default
2 Channel
to
5.1 Channel
. See
also
on page 45.
Connecting the digital output
This player has both optical and coaxial-type
digital audio outputs for connection to an AV
receiver. Connect whichever is convenient.
Depending on the capabilities of your AV
receiver, you might have to set up this player to
output only digital audio in a compatible
format. See
on
page 39 and refer to the operating instructions
that came with your AV receiver.
Note that SACD audio is not output through
these jacks, so this connection should be in
addition to, rather than instead of, a 5.1
channel analog connection.
•
Connect one of the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT
jacks on this player to a digital input on
your AV receiver.
For an optical connection, use an optical cable
(not supplied) to connect the
OPTICAL
DIGITAL AUDIO OUT
jack to an optical input
on your AV receiver.
For a coaxial connection, use a coaxial cable
(similar to the supplied video cable) to connect
the
COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT
jack to a
coaxial input on your AV receiver.

Basic playback controls
The table below shows the basic controls on
the remote for playing discs. The following
chapter covers other playback features in more
detail.
Resume and Last Memory
With the exception of DVD-Audio and SACD
discs, when you stop playback of a DVD, CD,
Video CD/Super VCD or DivX video discs,
RESUME
is shown in the display indicating
that you can resume playback again from that
point.
If the disc tray is not opened, the next time you
start playback the display shows
RESUME
and
playback resumes from the resume point. (If
you want to clear the resume point, press
(stop) while
RESUME
is displayed.)
With DVDs and Video CD/Super VCDs, if you
take the disc out of the player after stopping
playback, the last play position is stored in
memory. If the next disc you load is the same
one, the display shows
LAST MEM
and
playback will resume. For DVD-Video discs,
the player stores the play position of the last
five discs. When one of these discs is next
loaded, you can resume playback.
Note
• The Last Memory function doesn’t work
with VR format DVD-RW, DVD-Audio or
SACD discs.
• If you don’t need the Last Memory function
when you stop a disc, you can press
OPEN/CLOSE
to stop playback and open
the disc tray.
Button

DVD), group (for DVD-Audio) or track
(for CD/SACD/Video CD
/Super VCD
).

jumps to the start of the selected title
(VR mode DVD-RW), chapter (DVD-

Video CD/Super VCD PBC menus
Some Video CD/Super VCDs have menus from
which you can choose what you want to watch.
These are called PBC (Playback control)
menus.
You can play a PBC Video CD/Super VCD
without having to navigate the PBC menu by
starting playback using a number button to
select a track, rather than the
(play) button.
FAQ
Most likely, the disc is the wrong region for
your player. The region number should be
printed on the disc; check it against the
region number of the player (which you can
find on the rear panel). See also
on page 53.
If the region number is OK, it may be that
the disc is damaged or dirty. Clean the disc
and look for signs of damage. See also
on
page 51.
First check that you loaded the disc the
right way up (label side up), and that it’s
clean and undamaged. See
on page 51 for
information on cleaning discs.
If a disc loaded correctly won’t play, it’s
probably an incompatible format or disc
type, such as DVD-ROM. See
on page 7 for
more on disc compatibility.
Some movie formats are such that even
when played on a widescreen TV, black
bars are necessary at the top and bottom of
the screen. This is not a malfunction.
Some discs override the display
preferences of the player, so even if you
have
4:3 (Pan & Scan)
selected, those
discs will still be shown in letter box format.
This is not a malfunction.

Audio Output Mode
• Default setting:
2 Channel
If you connected this player to your amplifier
using the 5.1 channel analog outputs (front,
surround, center and subwoofer outs), set this
to
5.1 Channel
; if you connected only the
stereo outs, set to
2 Channel
.
Note
• Even if you set
Audio Output Mode
to
5.1
Channel
, you’ll only get sound from all
speakers when playing a 5.1 channel multi-
channel disc.
• When set to
5.1 Channel
, only the front
left/right channels are output from the
AUDIO OUT (2ch)
jacks. Change to
2
Channel
if you want to listen to downmixed
stereo audio (for example, because you are
listening through the TV’s built-in
speakers).
• When set to
5.1 Channel
there is no digital
output when playing DVD-Audio.
• If you set to
2 Channel
, Dolby Digital, DTS
and MPEG audio is mixed down to two
channels so you still hear all the audio
recorded on the disc. With DTS encoded
audio, you can choose how the signal is
downmixed to PCM audio. See
on page 43 to change the
downmix setting.
• Some DVD-Audio discs don’t allow down-
mixing of audio. These discs always output

Taking care of your player and
discs
General
Hold discs by the edge or by the center hole
and edge.
When you're not using a disc, return it to its
case and store upright. Avoid leaving discs in
excessively cold, humid, or hot environments
(including under direct sunlight).
Don't glue paper or put stickers on to discs. Do
not use a pencil, ball-point pen or other sharp-
tipped writing instrument to write on the disc.
Don’t use self-adhesive disc labels on discs as
these can cause the disc to warp slightly
during playback causing distortion in the
picture and/or sound.
Damaged and shaped discs
Do not use cracked, chipped, warped, or
otherwise damaged discs as they may damage
the player.
This player is designed to be used only with
conventional, fully circular discs. Do not use
shaped discs. Pioneer disclaims all liability
arising in connection with the use of shaped
discs.
Cleaning discs
Fingerprints and dust on discs can affect
playback performance. Clean using a soft, dry
cloth, wiping the disc lightly from the center to
the outside edge as shown below.
If necessary, use a cloth soaked in alcohol, or a
commercially available CD/DVD cleaning kit to
clean a disc more thoroughly. Never use
benzine, thinner or other cleaning agents,
including products designed for cleaning vinyl
records.
Cleaning the unit’s exterior
Unplug the unit before cleaning.
Use a dry cloth to wipe off dust and dirt. If the
surfaces are very dirty, wipe with a soft cloth
dipped in some neutral cleanser diluted five or
six times with water and wrung out well, then
wipe again with a dry cloth.
Do not use furniture wax or cleaners. Never
use thinners, benzine or insecticide sprays or
other chemicals on or near this unit.
