Con guring your DVD player
Introduction
This section of the document describes the use of the ‘Set-up’ menu, which is used to con gure your
player for your system and your personal preferences.
Obtaining a picture
To view the Set-up menu for the initial con guration, we recommend the use of
the composite video output to connect to your display device. This is because the
high quality video output has several display modes and may be incompatible with
your display device in its default con guration.
Ensure that your display device is switched on and that you have selected the
correct video input. You should see the image shown on the right. This is the
image that the DVD player gives whenever there is no disc playing.
NOTE: To protect your screen from damage caused by persistent static
images, a ‘screen saver’ facility activates after a few minutes of inactivity.
When this occurs, the image shown on the right will be ‘bounced’ around the
screen. To reset the image to the central position, press the STOP button on
the player or on the remote control.
Using the Set-up menus
To enter the Set-up menu, ensure that no disc is playing. Press SETUP on the remote control: a menu
will appear on the screen.
The Set-up menu comprises seven pages of options. The top line of each page shows the page title,
indicating the nature of the settings controlled by the page. To make a change, rst use the UP/DOWN
controls to highlight the item. Once the item to be changed has been highlighted, press RIGHT to open
the list of options for the menu item. The current option for the menu item is shown highlighted; the
UP/DOWN controls can be used to select the new option, then pressing LEFT con rms the selection and
closes the option list.
n
To change page, highlight the page bar at the top of the screen and use the LEFT/RIGHT controls
to move through the pages.
n
The UP/DOWN controls ‘wrap around’, so that with the highlight bar at the bottom of the screen,
pressing DOWN takes the bar to the top of the screen.
n
Items that are not applicable currently (for example, the Pro Logic II settings, when Pro Logic II
processing is switched off) are shown in dark blue, and cannot be highlighted or changed.

Operational set-up
OSD Language
This setting controls the language of the messages displayed on the On-Screen
Display (OSD). The default language is English, with three other languages
supported.
Note that this setting does not change the language of any information displayed
on the front panel, which is always in English.
OSD Status
This setting controls the ‘pop up’ messages that appear on screen.
On Pop-up messages are enabled
Off No pop-up messages, only menus when required.
Certain messages, such as ‘No Disc’ are always shown regardless of how this is set.
DVD menu
Some DVD discs support a number of different languages for the DVD disc menu (the menu present on
the DVD itself). This setting allows the preferred language to be speci ed. For example, if this item is set
to ‘French’ then disc menus will be displayed in French, where supported by the disc.
Note that not all discs will have your preferred language available.
Subtitle
This setting controls the subtitles displayed on the display device (although note that some discs may
force the subtitles to be displayed regardless of how this item is set).
Off No Subtitles
Auto Subtitles for the primary language on the disc
English English subtitles
French French subtitles, etc. (six languages are supported)
The default setting for Subtitle is ‘Off’; alternatively, choose the setting for the language you prefer. Note
that not all discs will have your preferred language available as a subtitle.
Force DVI
Even though your display device may be fully HDMI compliant, it is possible that in-line receivers or
repeaters may work only in DVI mode. In this case, it is useful to disable HDMI, forcing DVI output
instead.
Select YES to force the DV79 into DVI mode even when a HDMI device is detected; select NO otherwise.
If you are not using the HDMI capabilities of the DV79, then it does not matter which way this item is
set.
Remote type
This informs the player which type of remote control you are using, so that the player can take into
account the slight differences between the remote types. For ARCAM remote controls, the remote type is
always written on the front of the remote control, normally at the bottom of the unit.
CR-314 This selects the grey ARCAM CR-314 remote control
CR-415 This selects the black ARCAM CR-415 remote control
CR-80 This selects the black ARCAM CR-80 learning remote control
CR-9000 This selects the black ARCAM CR-9000 learning remote control
Other A non-ARCAM learning remote control is being used
It is important to choose ‘Other’ if the learning remote in use does not support RC-5 ‘toggle bits’.
Disc Priority
Some DVD discs show different material, or have different behaviour, depending on whether the disc is
played on a DVD-video or on a DVD-audio player. The ‘Disc Priority’ option allows you to con gure the
DV79 to be (primarily) one or other of the player types.
Note that, although this setting may be changed after a disc has been loaded into the DV79, this setting
does not take effect unless the disc is re-loaded (or a different disc is played).

Video set-up
If your display device is HDMI-compliant, the DV79 can read the capabilities of
the display device directly; the information allows the DV79 to con gure its output
automatically and optimally for the attached device. This is known as ‘plug and
play’.
The DV79 can be con gured for plug and play, or not; this depends on the ‘Output
Priority’ setting, described below. If the DV79 is con gured for plug and play, and
the display device cannot handle some of the options described below, then the
options shown will be restricted to just the ones applicable to the attached device.
For example, if the display device can handle PAL signals, but not NTSC, then NTSC
will not be shown as an option for the ‘TV System’ menu item.
See page 9 for more information about connecting to HDMI devices.
Output Priority
Allows speci cation of whether HDMI ‘plug and play’ capabilities should be used.
HDMI/DVI Select this item if you are connecting the DV79 to a HDMI-compliant device, and
you are happy for the DV79 to con gure itself automatically for the device it is
attached to.
This is the recommended setting if you are connecting the DV79 to a
HDMI-compliant device.
Analogue Select this setting if you are not connecting the DV79 to a HDMI-compliant
device.
TV System
This is set at the factory to be appropriate for the type of display device used in your country.
Should you need to change this setting, the options are explained below.
Auto The video output is taken from that recorded on the disc. When no disc is playing,
the logo screen is displayed using the standard of the last disc played.
NTSC NTSC is always used as the video standard. Note that PAL discs are converted to
NTSC, but this causes some reduction in the quality of the video output (and may
cause the video to become ‘jerky’). This is the best setting to use if your display
device can accept only NTSC video (this is generally the case in North America);
better results are obtained by using ‘Auto’, but your display device must be able
to support PAL.
PAL PAL is always used as the video standard. Note that NTSC discs are converted to
PAL, but this causes some reduction in the quality of the video output (and may
cause the video to become ‘jerky’). Better results will be obtained by using ‘Auto’,
but your display device must be able to support NTSC.
Progressive
Allows con guration of interlaced or de-interlaced (progressive scan) output.
Off The video output will always be interlaced (standard de nition video). Use this
setting if your display device does not support progressive scan.
NTSC only
(525)
The component video output will switch to progressive scan mode whenever the
output standard is NTSC (525). This would be whenever an NTSC disc is played,
or whenever ‘TV System’ is set to NTSC. The video output will revert to interlaced
(standard de nition) for PAL (625) modes. Use this setting only if your display
device supports NTSC progressive scan.
PAL only
(625)
The component video output will switch to progressive scan mode whenever the
output standard is PAL (625). This would be whenever a PAL disc is played, or
whenever ‘TV System’ is set to PAL. The video output will revert to interlaced
(standard de nition) for NTSC (525) modes. Use this setting only if your display
device supports PAL progressive scan.
On The component- and HDMI-video outputs will put progressive scan video out for
both PAL and NTSC discs. Use this setting only if your display device supports
progressive scan in both PAL and NTSC formats.
NOTE: When progressive scan is active, the component- and HDMI-video outputs will be in
Progressive mode; the other video outputs (Composite and S-Video) will be muted.
Since progressive scan must be Component, (not RGB), the ‘Analogue Video’ item will be
forced to ‘Component’ if progressive scan is enabled.
TV shape
This needs to be set correctly for the type of display device you have and the type of display you prefer.
4:3
Letterbox
Use this setting if you have a conventional 4:3 display device, and you prefer
to view wide screen movies in letterbox format (with black bars at the top and
bottom)
4:3
Panscan
Use this setting if you have a conventional 4:3 display device, and you prefer to
view wide screen movies in Pan & Scan format (cropping the sides of the image)
16:9 Use this setting if you have a wide screen (16:9) display device.
Material in 16:9 format is displayed so as to ll the screen.
If you have a 4:3 display device and you have set a preference for PANSCAN, it does not mean you will
always see movies in this format, since Panscan display must be supported by the disc being played.

Not all displays support
progressive scan. If you
enable progressive scan
accidentally and your
display does not support
it, you may be unable
to view the picture from
the DVD player, including
the on-screen display
required to change the
video settings. To revert
to interlaced mode
without using the on
screen menus, press and
hold the STOP button on
the front panel at any
time. The video mode
will revert to interlaced
mode after the button has
been held in for about  ve
seconds.
If the picture is ‘jerky’
or ‘shimmers’, you may
be playing a disc that
has a format different
to the setting of your
player (a PAL disc played
with NTSC output, for
example). If your display
device can handle both
PAL and NTSC video, then
change the ‘TV system’
setting to ‘Auto’.

Compression
Allows compression of the audio stream to be turned on or off, where ‘On’ is intended for ‘late night’
listening when large volume changes are not desirable.
Turning compression on increases the volume of the quiet passages and decreases the volume of the
louder passages, i.e., the total dynamic range of the audio is reduced. Compression can be disabled by
setting this item to ‘Off’.
Compression is available only on Dolby Digital recordings.
Pro Logic II
Dolby Pro Logic II decoding is designed to produce a 5-channel output from two-channel source material.
This item can be changed only if the ‘Audio’ menu item (described above) is set to ‘Bitstream/6 Ch’.
Set this item to one of the following. Due to the different recording methods used for movies and music, it
is recommended that the correct decoding mode for your source material is used to obtain the best results.
Off No Pro Logic decoding is performed.
PL
Dolby Pro Logic decoding is performed. Dolby Pro Logic decoding is a legacy mode,
and we recommend using one of the Pro Logic II decoding options, instead.
Movie Movie mode should be used with material marked as ‘Dolby Surround’ encoded.
Music Music mode is for use with any stereo music recording. As the optimum decoding
method varies according to the recording, Music mode allows user adjustment of
the processing characteristics; information about adjusting the Music mode by
using ‘Dimension’, ‘Centre Width’ and ‘Panorama’ controls can be found below.
Matrix The Matrix mode is the same as the Music mode except that the directional
enhancement logic is turned off. Matrix mode may be used to enhance mono
signal by making them seem ‘larger’.
Dimension
(This setting can be adjusted only when Dolby Pro Logic II Music mode is selected.)
‘Dimension’ allows the user gradually to adjust the sound eld either towards the front or towards the
rear. If a recording is too spacious or strong from the surrounds, it can be adjusted ‘forward’ to get a
better balance. Likewise, if a stereo recording is somewhat too ‘narrow’ sounding, it can be adjusted
toward the rear to get a more enveloping, immersive result. We recommend ‘Dimension’ is set to 0 for
normal use.
Centre Width
(This setting can be adjusted only when Dolby Pro Logic II Music
mode is selected.)
With Pro Logic II decoding, dominant centre signals come only from
the centre speaker. If no centre speaker is present, the decoder splits
the centre signal equally to the left and right speakers to create a
‘phantom’ centre image. The Centre Width control allows variable
adjustment of the centre image so it may be heard only from the
centre speaker; only from the left/right speakers as a phantom
image; or from all three front speakers to varying degrees. We
recommend ‘Centre Width’ is set to 3 for normal use.
Panorama Mode
(This setting can be adjusted only when Dolby Pro Logic II Music
mode is selected.)
Extends the front centre image to include the surround speakers for
an exciting ‘wrap-around’ effect with side wall imaging.
Speaker set-up
This menu screen allows you to specify the speaker con guration that is connected
to the analogue ouputs of your DVD player. (Note that these settings do not
affect the digital output in any way.) It is important that this con guration
re ects accurately the actual situation, otherwise audio quality may be severely
compromised.
The speakers are indicated as follows:
Front L/R This is the setting for the ‘Front’ speakers (the speakers used
for 2-channel stereo output).
Centre This is the ‘Centre’ speaker setting.
Surround
L/R
This is the setting for the ‘Surround’ speakers (normally next-
to or behind the user).
Subwoofer This is used to indicate whether a subwoofer is connected.
For each speaker, the player can be con gured to send either audio with the full frequency range
of the source material, or with a reduced frequency range. The reduced frequency range option is
used normally when ‘satellite’ speakers are used for the surround channels; these cannot handle low
frequency information. Full frequency speakers are commonly called ‘Large’ speakers, with reduced-
range speakers given the name ‘Small’. Low frequency information is re-routed from ‘small’ speakers to
‘large’ speakers, or to the subwoofer (depending on the speaker con guration).
NOTES:
1. Any speaker that is not connected should be identi ed by selecting ‘Not Present’ for that speaker.
2. Although the DV79 is very  exible in the speaker con gurations it can handle, some restrictions
have been applied. For example, if no subwoofer is present, then it is not possible to con gure
the Front speakers to be ‘Small’ since there would be nowhere to redirect the low frequency
information.
(This setting can be adjusted only when Dolby Pro Logic II Music
mode is selected.)
With Pro Logic II decoding, dominant centre signals come only from
the centre speaker. If no centre speaker is present, the decoder splits
the centre signal equally to the left and right speakers to create a
‘phantom’ centre image. The Centre Width control allows variable
adjustment of the centre image so it may be heard only from the
centre speaker; only from the left/right speakers as a phantom
image; or from all three front speakers to varying degrees. We
recommend ‘Centre Width’ is set to 3 for normal use.
Panorama Mode
(This setting can be adjusted only when Dolby Pro Logic II Music
mode is selected.)
Extends the front centre image to include the surround speakers for
an exciting ‘wrap-around’ effect with side wall imaging.

Stereo+Sub
This setting is relevant to 2-channel source material only (such as CDs). It controls whether the
low frequency information is redirected to the subwoofer, or not. This item can be changed only if
a subwoofer is speci ed as present in the system.
None No redirection of low-frequency information occurs; all the audio is sent to the
Front speakers.
Crossover Low-frequency information is redirected to the subwoofer, with the remaining
(higher-frequency) information sent to the Front speakers.
Duplicate All the audio is sent to the Front speakers. In addition, the low-frequency
information is duplicated to the subwoofer.
Crossover Frequency
This setting de nes the frequency at which bass redirection begins. Frequencies below this level
are redirected from ‘small’ speakers to the Fronts or to the subwoofer; frequencies above this
level are not redirected. The redirection frequency is the same for all the speakers in a system.
The optimum crossover frequency depends on the characteristics of your speaker set-up, and is
best determined by experimentation. We suggest you start at 100Hz.
Delay set-up
The delay set-up menu page allows two different type of delay to be con gured:
those due to speaker positioning and those due to video post-processing.
Speaker positioning
The relative positioning of speakers within a room (particularly a large room)
may mean that sound from some speakers arrives at the listener later than
sound from others. By altering the delay settings for the different speakers,
this difference in arrival time can be reduced or eliminated.
When setting the delay, it should be imagined that the listener is sitting in a
circle of the speakers; the delay indicates the distance of the speaker from the
listener.
Measurement Units
Your DV79 allows you to choose the measurement units that you feel most
comfortable with: metres or feet.
Delays
Delays for the front, centre and surround speakers can be set using the associated sliders. A delay
may be necessary for a speaker set if those speakers are further away from the listener than the
others – specifying the different speaker distances will cause a slight delay to be added to the output
of the closest speakers so that the sound from all the speakers will arrive at the listener at the same
time.
Video post-processing (lip-sync.)
Delay (NTSC/PAL)
Modern displays and video scalers often employ digital video processing that can introduce a
signi cant video delay. The ‘Delay’ menu items allow correction of this effect by delaying the audio
soundtrack up to 150 milli seconds. The amount of correction required in a given system is best
determined by experimentation.
If the interlaced video outputs of the DV79 are in use and the display is converting the signal to
progressive scan then we recommend a delay of 50–80ms, depending upon the display.
If the progressive video output of the DV79 is in use, the player corrects automatically for its own
processing delays and it is unlikely that additional delay will be necessary. Therefore, start by
setting these items to 0ms (no delay).
Trim set-up
The relative sensitivity (volume) of different speakers can lead to some speakers
sounding disproportionately loud or quiet, relative to others in the system. The
trims setting of your DV79 can help to address this inbalance.
Test Noise
Setting this item to ‘On’ causes pink noise to be generated from the speaker
indicated by the on-screen highlight. The noise is at the volume indicated by
the slider for the speaker. Setting this to ‘On’ may be useful in ensuring that the
relative volume for each speaker is the same.
Note that this setting is set automatically to ‘Off’ on exit from this menu page.
Trims
Trims for all the speakers can be set using the associated sliders. These settings
are useful if the speakers have different sensitivities (and so have different volumes
for the same input levels). The trims can be set in 1dB steps.
Subwoofer/Stereo+Sub trims
Both the ‘Subwoofer’ and the ‘Stereo+Sub’ trims control the subwoofer trim setting. ‘Subwoofer’ is the
trim used when multi-channel material is being played; ‘Stereo+Sub’ is the subwoofer trim used with
2-channel material.

Access set-up
Password
The password setting works in conjunction with the rating setting (the next
menu item) to provide a means of limiting content playback by children (parental
control).
You will see there are four dashes and a padlock symbol. Normally the padlock
symbol will be open and this means the parental control is unlocked. Under this
condition the rating setting may be freely changed.
To lock the parental control, choose a suitable four digit number. Don’t forget your
password as you will need to know it to unlock the player. Highlight ‘Password’ and
enter your four digit number using the numerical keys on the handset. When all
four digits have been entered, press OK on the handset. The player is now locked
and you will not be able to change the rating setting.
To unlock the parental control, highlight ‘Password’ and enter your four digit
number, followed by OK.
Note that a different pass-code can be selected each time that the player is locked.
Rating
The rating setting is used in conjunction with the password to restrict the content of DVD titles that may
be played. To change this setting the parental control must be unlocked.
The term ‘Parental level’ refers to a standard de ned for DVDs. DVD movies may have a parental level
between 1 and 8. Note that this only applies to DVD video discs that have the parental level correctly
implemented. Some DVD video titles do not respond to parental control settings, and Video CDs have no
mechanism for parental control.
Once the rating level has been set, DVD titles with parental level higher than the setting will not play.
Sometimes DVD video titles may be produced that have the parental level set for speci c scenes, so a
disc will play but skip or substitute certain scenes.
Completing the set-up
Complete the set-up procedure by pressing SETUP on the remote control. This saves all the data and
closes the set-up menu. You can press SETUP at any time while in a menu to quit from it.
To return to the set-up menu at any time, ensure that there is no disc playing and press the SETUP
button.

Advanced DVD and VCD features
This section explains the more sophisticated DVD and VCD features, such as special playback modes.
The operations described here are not exactly the same for DVDs and VCDs, but are similar enough to
make it appropriate to group them together.
Note that many VCDs have a single track, so some operations involving tracks will not be relevant.
Jumping to a particular point
Press the SRCH button on the remote control to open the ‘Search’ menu:
If the disc is playing, then the elapsed and total times on the disc are shown in the
top right of the page.
A jump can be performed using different speci ers: jump to a particular time or to
a speci ed chapter/track on the disc.
Time
Highlight the ‘Time’  eld and enter the time in hours, minutes and seconds, then
press OK. The Search menu is removed from the screen and playback starts from
the time speci ed. Invalid time entries are ignored.
Title/Chapter
(Applies to DVDs only) To jump to a title or chapter, highlight the title/chapter
position and enter the number of the title/chapter to jump to, before pressing OK.
It is possible to jump to a chapter within a different title to the current one by entering a value into both
elds. Note that specifying a title without a chapter will jump to the  rst chapter in the title.
Group/Track
(Applicable to DVD-audio discs only.) To jump to a group or track, highlight the group/track position and
enter the number of the group/track to jump to, before pressing OK. It is possible to jump to a track
within a different group to the current one by entering a value into both  elds. Note that specifying a
group without a track will jump to the  rst track in the group.
Track
(Applies to VCDs only) To jump to a speci ed track on a VCD, enter the track number in the ‘Track’  eld,
then press OK. Note that many VCDs have only one track.
Closing the Search menu
When displayed, this menu screen can be closed again by pressing the SRCH button (which also has the
effect of cancelling the search).
Special playback modes
Playback modes are available that allow repeat, shuf e and programmed playback.
Repeat
Press the RPT button on the remote control to cycle through the repeat options. For DVDs, a chapter or
title repeat may be selected (i.e., play continuously the current chapter or the current title). For VCDs, a
track or disc repeat is available.
When a chapter/track repeat is selected, the loop symbol on the front panel display is illuminated and
the current chapter/track is repeated. If a title/disc repeat is selected, the loop symbol andALL’ are
illuminated and the current title/disc is repeated.
To cancel repeat, press the RPT button until ‘Repeat: Off’ is displayed.
Shuf e
Press the P MODE button on the remote control to switch shuf e play on.
The ‘RAND’ (random play) indicator shows on the display, and the chapters/tracks are played in random
order.
To cancel random play, press the P MODE button for a second time.
A-B repeat
The DV79 can repeat a speci c section of a DVD or VCD; this is called an A-B repeat.
To perform an A-B repeat, wait until the disc is at the point where you want the repeat to start, then
press A-B. The OSD shows a repeat symbol, followed by ‘A–’, and the front panel shows ‘A–’.
Press A-B again at the point you want the repeat to end. The repeat symbol, followed by ‘A-B’ is shown
on the display device, and the front panel shows ‘A-B’. The selected section is repeated in a loop.
To cancel the A-B repeat, press A-B again. An ‘Off’ message is displayed on the OSD.

Programmed playback (DVD-video)
Press PROG on the remote control to open the ‘Programme’ menu. Note that
playback must be stopped  rst.
The bottom of the screen shows the number of titles present on the disc, together
with the number of chapters in the title selected currently (or the  rst title if no
title has yet been speci ed). Below this is an information line, giving relevant
information for the cursor position.
You can enter a sequence of up to 20 title/chapter combinations for programmed
playback. If you enter data that is invalid for the current disc, the  eld is erased
automatically.
A number of aids have been built in to the programme menu to make it easier to
use. These are best illustrated by an example. Let’s assume that you want to play
chapters 5, 7, 9, 4, 8, 3, and 1 (in that order) of title 1, then all of title 2.
First, highlight the title position for the  rst programmed item, then press the
number 1 on the remote control: ‘1’ is shown in the position. Using the remote
control, press
4
to highlight the chapter position. The message at the bottom of
the screen changes accordingly, prompting you for the required information. Press
5 on the remote handset.
Since we have a number of chapters all from the same title, it would be a lot of
work to have to enter the title number each time. Press
6
on the remote handset.
Notice that the player assumes that the title number remains the same for this
entry as for the previous one. Enter the remaining chapter numbers, pressing
6
after each one. (Note that pressing
6
at the bottom of a column places the cursor
at the top of the next column.)
Next, we want to specify all of title 2. For this, highlight the title position of the next
entry (entry 8) and enter the number 2, indicating title 2. Highlight the chapter
position and, without entering any number, press
6
. The player  lls in the text ‘All’
to indicate that all the chapters in title 2 will be played.
Program (DVD-audio)
The programming of a sequence for a DVD-audio disc is essentially the same as for a DVD-video disc,
and the instructions given above should be followed. For DVD-audio discs, the ‘titles with chapters’
combination found on DVD-video discs changes to ‘groups with tracks.
Programmed playback (VCD)
The bottom of the screen shows the number of tracks present on the disc. Below this is an information
line, giving relevant information for the cursor position.
You can enter a sequence of up to 20 tracks for programmed playback. If you enter data that is invalid
for the current disc, the  eld is erased automatically.
To program the player, highlight the  rst entry (using the cursor pad on the remote control), then press
the number of the track you want to play  rst. To enter a second track, move down, then type the
number of the second track to play, etc. To enter a track number greater than 9, press the two digits
sequentially (e.g., for track 10,  rst press 1, then press 0).
General
To play the programme you have entered, highlight the ‘Play’ button on the screen and press OK. The
‘PROG’ indicator shows in the display and the programmed sequence begins.
If you make a mistake while programming, you can clear a single eld by highlighting it and pressing
CLEAR. To clear all the  elds at once, highlight the ‘Clear All’ button on the screen and press OK.
To stop the programmed sequence and return to normal playback, select the PLAY button in the
programme menu with no programme speci ed. This clears the programme mode and cause normal
playback order to be resumed.
Note that skipping forward or back through tracks while in programmed play mode skips through the
programmed sequence.

Advanced MP3/WMA/JPEG and audio-CD
features
The DV79 DVD player has the ability to handle MP3, WMA and JPEG  les, when these are burned on to
a CD-R or CD-RW disc. Picture/Photo CDs are also playable. These  le types may be mixed together, if
desired.
This section explains the more sophisticated CD-based features, for audio CDs and for CD-ROM discs
containing MP3, WMA and JPEG  les. The operation for audio-CDs and other CD-ROMs is very similar,
except that CD-ROMs can have directories and sub-directories, while audio-CDs do not have a directory
structure.
In this section of the document, we use the term ‘CD-ROM’ to refer to a CD-R or CD-RW disc containing
MP3, WMA or JPEG  les, and including Picture/Photo CDs.
All of these advanced features use on-screen menus, so a Display device monitor is required.
Screen layout
When an audio-CD or CD-ROM is detected by the DVD player, the disc navigator screen is displayed.
The screen shown above is the disc navigator screen, in this example showing a CD-R containing MP3
les. The following items can be identi ed:
1
The user command indicator.
2
The mode of the player. This is described in more detail
below.
3
The current track number and the total number of
tracks in this directory (for CD-ROMs), or on the whole
disc (for audio-CDs).
4
The playback time of the current track, and the total
playback time.
5
For CD-ROMs, this area shows the current directory.
6
‘Up’ – for CD-ROMs, selecting this button changes
directory to one level above the current one. This button
is not shown for audio-CDs, or if the current directory is
at the top level.
7
‘PAF’ – Play All Files on the disc. Starting from the rst
valid  le/track, all valid  les/tracks on the disc are
played, in the order found.
8
‘PD’ – Play Directory. (CD-ROMs only). Starting from the rst valid  le in the current directory,
all the (valid) les in the current directory are played.
9
The names of the tracks in this directory. For audio-CDs, the text ‘Track 1’, etc., is shown here.
For CD-ROMs, the text shown here is based on the le name of the track.
bk
When playing CD-ROMs, the full name of the  le being played is displayed here (subject to
screen space).
bl
When playing CD-ROMs, tag information from MP3 and WMA  les is displayed here, if present on
the disc.
bm
Helpful messages to the user are displayed here. When the disc is loaded, the PAF button (
7
)
is highlighted. This means that loading the disc and pressing PLAY or OK is enough to set the
disc playing.
Player mode
When playing audio-CDs or CD-ROMs, the player can be in one of three modes:
Browse mode: the user is free to navigate around the disc directory structure (while playback is
stopped). Valid  les/tracks in each directory (audio-CD tracks or  les that can be played) are displayed
on the screen. Pressing PLAY while the cursor is on a valid  le/track will start playback from that point,
continuing to the end of the disc. Alternatively, the ‘PD’ or ‘PAF’ buttons can be used to start playback.
Programme mode: Press PROG on the remote control to enter ‘Programme’ mode to choose the
order in which the les/tracks are played. Playback must be stopped  rst. ‘Programme’ mode operates
differently for audio-CDs and MP3 discs, and is explained on page 22.
Playlist mode: The player is in this mode when a programmed sequence of  les/tracks is being played.
No navigation of the disc may be performed in this mode; the player starts at the beginning of the
programmed playlist and plays through to the end.

Browsing the disc (Browse mode)
By default, the disc navigator is in ‘Browse’ mode. In this mode, the user can navigate around the disc
(using the cursor pad for direction and ‘OK’ to select an option). When a  le/track is highlighted, the tag
information for that  le (if available) is displayed in the lower portion of the screen. Use the ‘Up’ button
to move to a higher-level directory; to enter a lower-level directory, press OK when the directory name is
highlighted.
At any time, press PLAY or OK to begin playback from the  le/track highlighted currently. Navigation
around the current directory is possible during playback, but playback stops automatically if you attempt
to navigate out of the current directory. Please note the following:
n
Fast forward and fast rewind do not work with MP3 or WMA playback.
n
Skipping forward past the end of a directory with CD-ROMs causes playback to continue from the
next directory containing valid  les. Skip-back can be performed only as far as the beginning of
the current directory.
n
Directory trees may be up to 10 directories deep.
n
Long le names, of up to 64 characters (Joliet standard), are supported.
n
Only sample rates of 44.1kHz and 48kHz are supported for MP3 and WMA  les.
n
For MP3 playback, the following constant bit rates are supported: 32, 64, 80, 96, 112, 128, 160,
192, 256 and 320 kilobits per second. Variable bit rate (VBR) between 96kb/s and 320kb/s is
also supported.
n
For WMA playback, the following constant bit rates are supported: 48, 64, 80, 96, 128, 160 and
192kb/s.
n
CD-ROM discs may contain  les other than MP3, WMA or JPEGs, but these are not displayed on
the screen.
Because of differences in the many MP3 and WMA encoders available, we recommend that you conduct a
test recording before transferring large numbers of MP3  les to CD-R or CD-RW for subsequent playback
on the DV79.
Programmed playback (Audio CDs)
Press PROG on the remote control to open the ‘Programme’ menu. Playback must
be stopped  rst.
The bottom of the screen shows the number of tracks present on the disc. Below
this is an information line, giving relevant information for the cursor position.
You can enter a sequence of up to 20 tracks for programmed playback. If you enter
data that is invalid for the current disc, the eld will be erased automatically.
To program the player, highlight the  rst entry (using the cursor pad on the remote
control), then press the number of the track you want to play  rst. To enter a
second track, move down, then type the number of the second track to play, etc.
To enter a track number greater than 9, press the two digits sequentially (e.g., for
track 10,  rst press 1, then press 0).
To play the programme you have entered, highlight the PLAY button on the screen
and press OK. The ‘PROG’ indicator shows on the front panel display and the
programmed sequence begins.
If you make a mistake while programming, you can clear a single eld by highlighting it and pressing
CLEAR. To clear all the  elds at once, highlight the ‘Clear All’ button on the screen and press OK.
To stop the programmed sequence and return to normal playback, select the ‘Play’ button in the
programme menu with no programme speci ed. This clears programme mode and causes normal
playback order to be resumed.
Note that in programmed playback mode, skipping track forward or back skips forward or back through
the programmed sequence.
The player returns to ‘Browse’ mode if no programme has been entered when PROG is pressed for a
second time.
Programmed playback (CD-ROM)
Pressing the PROG button on the remote control stops playback (if active) and changes the player mode
to ‘Programme’ mode (as indicated at point
2
).
Navigating the directory tree is the same as described earlier for ‘Browse’ mode. Files from any location
on the disc may be added to the playlist by moving the cursor to the  le, then pressing OK on the
remote control. Files that are present in the playlist are shown with a light blue highlight.
To remove a le from the playlist, move the cursor to the  le and press OK. The blue highlight
disappears from the le, indicating that the  le is no longer in the playlist. To remove all  les from the
playlist, press CLEAR on the remote control.
When you have entered the programme to your satisfaction, press the PROG button again. This changes
the display to show the programmed list (‘Playlist’ mode) and playback starts automatically.
Playback can be stopped and started using the STOP and PLAY keys, as normal. To stop the programmed
sequence and return to normal playback, press the PROG button for a third time; this stops playback and
changes the player to ‘Browse’ mode.
