Precautions
1. Regional Restriction Codes (Region Number)
Regional restriction codes are built into DVD Players and DVD-Video
media for each sales region. If the regional code of the DVD Player
does not match one of the regional codes on the DVD-Video, playback
is not possible.
The regional number can be found on the rear panel of the DVD
Player. (e.g.
1
for Region 1)
2. About This Manual
This manual explains the basic procedures for operating the DVD
Player. Some DVD-Video and DVD-Audio discs do not support the
full potential of the DVD technology. Your DVD Player may therefore
not respond to all operating commands. Refer to instruction notes on
discs.
A “ ” mark may appear on the TV screen during operation. It means
that the operation is not permitted by the DVD Player or the disc.
3. Warranty Claim
You can find the serial number on the rear panel of the unit. In case of
warranty claim, please report this number.
4. Recording Copyright
Recording of copyrighted material for other than personal use is illegal
without permission of the copyright holder.
5. Power
WARNING
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME, READ
THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.
The voltage of the available power supply differs according to country
or region. Be sure that the power supply voltage of the area where the
unit will be used meets the required voltage (e.g., AC 120 V, 60 Hz)
written on the rear panel.
6. Do not touch the unit with wet hands
Do not handle the unit or power cord when your hands are wet or
damp. If water or any other liquid enters the case, take the unit to an
authorized service center for inspection.
7. Location of the unit
• Place the unit in a well-ventilated location.
Take special care to provide plenty of ventilation on all sides of the
unit especially when it is placed in an audio rack. If ventilation is
blocked, the unit may overheat and malfunction.
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or heating units as the unit’s
internal temperature may rise and shorten the life of the pickup.
• Avoid damp and dusty places and places directly affected by
vibrations from the speakers. In particular, avoid placing the unit on
or above one of the speakers.
• Be sure the unit is placed in a horizontal position. Never place it on
its side or on a slanted surface as it may malfunction.
• When you place the unit near a TV, radio, or VCR, the playback
picture may become poor and the sound may be distorted. In this
case, place the unit away from the TV, radio, or VCR.
8. Care
From time to time you should wipe the front and rear panels and the
cabinet with a soft cloth. For heavier dirt, dampen a soft cloth in a
weak solution of mild detergent and water, wring it out dry, and wipe
off the dirt. Following this, dry immediately with a clean cloth.
Do not use rough material, thinners, alcohol or other chemical solvents
or cloths since these could damage the finish or remove the panel
lettering.
9. Notes on Handling
• When shipping the unit, use the original shipping carton and
packing materials. For maximum protection, repack the unit as it
was originally packed at the factory.
• Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near the unit. Do
not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the unit for a
long time. They will leave marks on the finish.
• The top and rear panels of the unit may become warm after a
long period of use. This is not a malfunction.
• When the unit is not in use, be sure to remove the disc and turn off
the power.
• If you do not use the unit for a long period, the unit may not
function properly in the future. Turn on and use the unit
occasionally.
10. To Obtain a Clear Picture
The unit is a high technology, precision device. If the optical pick-up
lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn down, the picture quality
becomes poor. To obtain a clear picture, we recommend regular
inspection and maintenance (cleaning or parts replacement) every
1,000 hours of use depending on the operating environment. For
details, contact your nearest dealer.
11. Notes on Moisture Condensation
Moisture condensation damages the unit.
Please read the following carefully.
• What is moisture condensation?
Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you pour a cold
drink into a glass on a warm day. Drops of water form on the outside
of the glass. In the same way, moisture may condense on the optical
pick-up lens inside the unit, one of the most crucial internal parts of
the unit.
• Moisture condensation occurs in the following cases.
– When you bring the unit directly from a cold place to a warm
place.
– When you use the unit in a room where you just turned on the
heater, or a place where the cold wind from the air conditioner
directly hits the unit.
– In summer, when you use the unit in a hot and humid place just
after you move the unit from an air conditioned room.
– When you use the unit in a humid place.
• Do not use the unit when moisture condensation may
occur.
If you use the unit in such a situation, it may damage discs and
internal parts. Remove the disc, connect the power cord of the unit
to the wall outlet, turn on the unit, and leave it for two or three
hours. After a few hours, the unit will have warmed up and
evaporated any moisture. Keep the unit connected to the wall outlet
and moisture condensation will seldom occur.

Optional Audio Connections
This DVD Player provides numerous ways to take full advantage of the digital multi channel sound recorded on DVD media.
When listening to DVD-Audio
For full enjoyment of DVD-Audio media, it is recommended to make connections to the 6-channel ANALOG OUTPUT jacks. Audio output of DVD-Audio cannot
be played back efficiently when output as a bitstream or PCM from the DIGITAL OUTPUT jacks.
Analog connections
In addition to offering two stereo outputs for connection to a stereo system, two types of multi channel analog output allow you to make connections to an AV
component that features multi channel analog input for full enjoyment of multi channel DVD-Audio discs.

Making stereo audio connections
By making connections to a stereo system, you can improve the
quality of the sound of cinematic presentations as well as make
effective use of the DVD Player’s ability to play back CDs.
Using an audio cable (sold separately), make audio connections
from the ANALOG OUTPUT CH1 or CH2 L and R jacks to the
corresponding jacks on the stereo component.
Be sure to set Audio Out Select to “Analog 2Ch” using the on-
screen menu explained in “Customizing the Function Settings”
starting on page 44. See page 48 for direct information.
Notes
• Be sure to match the colors of the plugs on the cable with the
corresponding jacks on the DVD Player and the stereo component: red for
R (right) audio and white for L (left) audio.
• Do not make connections to the PHONO or TUNER jacks on the stereo
component.
• When this type of connection is made, be sure to set Audio Out Select to
“Analog 2Ch” in order to enjoy the Dolby Pro Logic surround sound.
Making discrete 6-channel ANALOG
OUTPUT connections
The discrete ANALOG OUTPUT jacks are intended to deliver up to
5.1 channels of multi channel audio from DVD-Video and DVD-
Audio sources. Connections can be made from the ANALOG
OUTPUT FRONT, SURR (surround), CENTER, and SUBWOOFER
jacks to the corresponding input jacks on an AV component with
multi channel discrete audio input jacks.
Be sure to set Audio Out Select to “Analog 6Ch” using the on-
screen menu explained in “Customizing the Function Settings”
starting on page 44. See page 48 for direct information.
Notes
• To ensure proper delivery of sound, be sure to match the names of the jacks
on the DVD Player and the component being connected to.

Digital connections
Make digital connections from the DVD Player to an AV component
that features digital input capability or one or more multi-channel
audio decoders to realize the full cinematic experience made
possible by the DVD format. This DVD Player features two sets of
optical and coaxial digital audio output jacks and can output Dolby
Digital, DTS, and MPEG2* bitstreams as well as outputting
standard PCM.
Make connections from the DIGITAL OUTPUT OPTICAL CH1 or
CH2 jacks to the digital optical input jack on the AV component
using an optical fiber cable (sold separately). Make connections
from the DIGITAL OUTPUT COAXIAL CH1 or CH2 jacks to the
digital coaxial input jack on the AV component using a coaxial cable
(sold separately). It is not necessary to make more than one type of
digital connection to a single component.
When you are making connections to an amp or receiver that has
internal Dolby Digital, DTS, or MPEG decoding capabilities, set
Audio Out Select to “Bitstream” using the on-screen menu
explained in “Customizing the Function Settings” starting on page
44. See page 48 for direct information.
When you are making connections to an amp or receiver that has
digital input capabilities, but no internal decoder, set Audio Out
Select to “PCM” using the on-screen menu explained in
“Customizing the Function Settings” starting on page 44. See page
48 for direct information. Setting Audio Out Select to any other
setting could result in digital noise being output that
could cause harm your hearing and may also damage your speakers.
Making MULTI CHANNEL OUTPUT
connection
The MULTI CHANNEL OUTPUT is a DB-25 port that can output
up to 5.1 channels of decoded analog audio from DVD-Video and
DVD-Audio sources to a receiver or other AV component that
features a similar input port. Ideally you want to connect two
identical ports together via a single DB-25 cable.
Be sure to set Audio Out Select to “Analog 6Ch” using the on-
screen menu explained in “Customizing the Function Settings”
starting on page 44. See page 48 for direct information.
Notes
• When connecting the cable, be sure to secure the locking screws on the
DB-25 connectors.
• The output from this port is the same as from the 6-channel ANALOG
OUTPUT jacks.

• When using only two speakers for playback and play a multi channel disc that prohibits stereo downmixing, the sound from the right and left
speakers will be the right and left channels of the multi channel sound track as recorded on the disc. With these types of discs, it is often possible
that a 2-channel stereo sound track may also be recorded. Change the sound track to hear the audio correctly. (For details, refer to the
documentation supplied with the disc.)
• During playback of discs recorded with sampling rates higher than 48 kHz (for example 96 kHz), the 48/44.1 sampling rate indicator lights when
Audio Out Select is set to either Bitstream or PCM.
• When Audio Out Select is set to Analog 6Ch, two channel audio sources are output with DOLBY PRO LOGIC surround processing (except for
DVD-Audio).

Video Output
The DVD Player is capable of outputting
progressive scan video. As its name suggests,
progressive scan delivers the video image
sequentially across the horizontal lines of the TV
or monitor rather than the alternating odd and
even delivery of an interlace scan. The result is a
picture quality that best reflects the quality digital
video recorded on the DVD.
PROGRESSIVE
Notes
• In order for this function to be effective, it is necessary to have made
component video connections to a TV or monitor that is compatible with
progressive scan.
• This function only works when the color system recorded on the disc is

This remote controller features a learning function that allows you to program the remote codes of other remote
control units for more singular control of your home entertainment system. A number of commands can be
programmed for operation for when the remote controller is in DVD mode and when it is in Receiver mode. Please
follow the procedure in this section to program your remote controller to your preferences.
Programming the Commands of Other Remote
Control Units into the Remote Controller
1

3
Programming procedure
The first step in the procedure is to determine whether the new command is to be learned in the DVD mode or in the Receiver mode.
Generally speaking, this should be decided by the command being learned. After deciding which mode is to be used, you will then transfer the
individual commands from the other remote control unit to the RC-438DV remote controller one at a time. Each command is then
programmed to one of the available buttons on the RC-438DV remote controller.
Even after the commands have been programmed, keep the other remote control unit in a safe place in the case that the programmed
commands should be lost (e.g., when the batteries run down). If the commands are lost, it will then be necessary to program them again.
Place the remote controller and the
other remote control unit of the
other component facing each other
at a distance of 5 to 15 cm (2 to 6
inches) apart.
While pressing and holding down
the desired MODE button (DVD or
RECVR) on the remote controller,
press SEARCH and then release
both buttons.
When you press and hold down the desired MODE
button, the SEND/LEARN indicator lights up. When
you press SEARCH, the indicator turns off. When
you release both buttons, the indicator lights up
again.
Press and release the button on the
remote controller to which you
want to transfer the new command.
The buttons that can be selected in this step depend
on the mode. Refer to the shaded areas in the
illustrations below to determine what buttons can be
programmed in each mode.
If you press the wrong button by mistake, press that
same button again. The SEND/LEARN indicator
flashes three times and the remote controller exits the
programming mode. When this is the case, start
again at step 1.

Press and hold down the button on
the other remote control unit that
corresponds to the command you
want to program until the SEND/
LEARN indicator flashes twice to
indicate that the command has
been successfully programmed.
After flashing twice, the SEND/LEARN indicator
lights up again.
Repeat steps 3 and 4 to program
other commands within the same
mode.
Repeat step 2 to 4 to program
commands to the other mode.
Press the MODE button (DVD or
RECVR) that you pressed in step 2
to complete the programming.
Use the remote controller to
perform the newly learned
command to confirm that it was
learned correctly.
Notes
• Some buttons have already been programmed to control functions of an
Onkyo receiver. Therefore, it is recommended to program additional
functions of the receiver that are not already programmed in the remote
controller.
• If no buttons are pressed for more than 30 seconds during the
programming, or if you perform an invalid operation, the SEND/LEARN
indicator flashes three times quickly and the remote controller exits the
programming mode. Resume programming from step 2.
• If you perform an invalid operation during programming, the SEND/
LEARN indicator flashes three times quickly and the remote controller
exits the programming mode. Resume from Step 2.
• When you want to program a command to a button to which you have
already programmed a command, simply follow the same procedure and
programming for that button will be overwritten.
• The remote controller uses infrared rays to send its commands, as do most
other remote control units. Though most remote control units can be
memorized by the remote controller, be aware that some remote control
units use a system that is quite different from the remote controller and
therefore may not be able to be programmed.
• Some remote control units have a single button that performs multiple
functions (for example, the function may change each time the button is
pressed). If this is the case, each function must be programmed to a
separate button on the remote controller.
• Once you have programmed the commands from the other remote control
unit, refer to the instructions supplied with the other component to operate.
• Make sure that both the remote controller and the other remote control unit
have new batteries. If either of them has batteries that are low, you may not
be able to program the commands of the other remote control unit properly
into the remote controller.
• After programming another function to the ZOOM ON button or ZOOM
+/– buttons, it is no longer possible to perform the Zoom function. To use
the Zoom function again, it is necessary to erase the commands
programmed to those buttons. For details, see page 60.
• Removing the batteries from the remote controller for at least 10 minutes
erases all of the commands that have been programmed in the remote
controller.

Programming the Commands of Other Remote
Control Units into the Remote Controller
Erasing the programmed command
from one button
You can only erase memorized commands and not preset ones.
Press and hold down the desired
MODE button for the command,
press the SEARCH button, and
then release both buttons.
When you release the buttons, the SEND/LEARN
indicator lights.
Press and release the button for
the command you wish to erase.
When you press the button, the SEND/LEARN
indicator turns off. When you release the button, the
lamp lights again.
Press and release the same button
again.
The SEND/LEARN lamp flashes twice. The
memorized command is erased.
Note
If no button is pressed for more than 30 seconds during the programming, the
SEND/LEARN indicator flashes three times quickly, and the remote
controller exits the programming mode. Resume from Step 1.

Erasing all the commands
programmed under a MODE button
Press and hold down the desired
MODE button, press the SEARCH
button twice, and then release both
buttons.
When you release the buttons, the SEND/LEARN
indicator flashes twice slowly and then lights again.
Press and release the same MODE
button again.
When you release the button, the SEND/LEARN
indicator flashes twice slowly. This erases all the
commands memorized to the MODE button.
Notes
• If no button is pressed for more than 30 seconds, the SEND/LEARN
indicator flashes three times quickly and the remote controller exits the
programming mode. Resume Step 1.
• If you perform an invalid operation during programming, the SEND/
LEARN indicator flashes three times quickly and the remote controller
exits the programming mode. Resume from Step 1.
• If many commands have been programmed to the MODE button, then the
SEND/LEARN indicator may remain lit for some time during Step 2. This
is not a malfunction.
