FAQ
• After I load a DVD disc, it ejects automatically after a few seconds!
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
DVD-Video regions
on page 41.
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
Taking care of your player and discs
on page 40.
• Why won’t the disc I loaded play?
First check that you loaded the disc the right way up (label side
up), and that it’s clean and undamaged. See
Taking care of your
player and discs
on page 40 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
Disc/
content format playback compatibility
on page 7 for more on disc
compatibility.
• There’s no picture!
Check the front panel and make sure that the
PURE AUDIO
indicator isn’t lit. If it is, press the
PURE AUDIO
button to switch
the video and HDMI outputs back on. See also
Front panel
on
page 16.
Check that your TV is compatible with resolutions of 1080i, 720p,
576p or 480p. See
Watching 1080i/720p/576p/480p from the
component video outputs
on page 11.
• I have a widescreen TV so why are there black bars at the top and
bottom of the screen when I play some discs?
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.
• I have a standard (4:3) TV and set the player to show widescreen
DVDs in pan & scan format, so why do I still get black bars top and
bottom with some discs?
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.
• I’ve connected to a HDMI compatible component but I can’t get
any signal and the front panel HDMI indicator won’t light!
Make sure that you’ve selected this player as the HDMI input in
the settings for the component you’re using. You may need to
refer to the instruction manual of the component to do this. See
Connecting using HDMI
on page 14 for more on HDMI
compatibility.
• There’s no picture from the HDMI output!
This player cannot display pictures from DVI compatible
sources. See
Connecting using HDMI
on page 14 for more on
HDMI compatibility.
Make sure the resolution on this player matches that of the
component you have connected using HDMI. See
Resolution
(Max)
on page 33 to change the HDMI resolution.
• My AV receiver is definitely compatible with 96 kHz/88.2 kHz
Linear PCM audio, but it doesn’t seem to work with this player.
What’s wrong?
For digital copy-protection purposes, some 96 kHz/88.2 kHz
DVD discs only output digital audio downsampled to 48 kHz/
44.1 kHz. This is not a malfunction.
To fully take advantage of the high sampling rate audio, connect
the analog audio outputs to your amplifier/receiver.
• Why can’t I hear SACD audio through the digital outputs?
SACD digital audio is only available through the HDMI outputs
when connected to an HDMI-compatible amp that can handle
protected audio contents. Some DVD-Audio discs too only
output digital audio through the HDMI outputs.
• Is it better to listen to DVD-Audio discs through the analog
outputs?
Some DVD-Audio discs do not output anything through the
digital outputs, and multichannel discs are downmixed to stereo
for the digital output. In addition, high sampling rate DVD-Audio
discs (higher than 96 kHz) automatically downsample audio
output from the digital outputs.
Using the multichannel analog audio outputs for DVD-Audio
have none of these limitations.
• My DVD-Audio disc starts playing, but then suddenly stops!
The disc may have been illegally copied.
• There’s no sound from the optical/coaxial outputs or the HDMI
interface!
Check the front panel and make sure that the
PURE AUDIO
indicator isn’t lit. If it is, press the
PURE AUDIO
button to switch
the digital audio (optical/coaxial and HDMI) outputs back on.
You won’t hear any sound from the HDMI output if the source
component is only DVI/HDCP-compatible.
