Introduction (see pages 1 and 2) Playable Disc Types: • If you play back an NTSC disc with the scan mode set to “PAL (PRG),” you can watch the playback picture (the disc will be reproduced using “PAL 60” format), but the TV screen may not display properly. • If you play back a PAL disc with the scan mode set to “NTSC (PRG),” you can watch the playback picture, but the following symptoms may occur: – The items on the disc menu will be blurred, and be shown slightly shifted when highlighted. – The aspect ratio of the picture may differ from the original aspect ratio. – The picture movement is not smooth. • About audio format – Linear PCM: Uncompressed digital audio, the same format used for CDs and most studio masters. – Dolby Digital: Compressed digital audio, developed by Dolby Laboratories, which enables multi-channel encode to create the realistic surround sound. – DTS (Digital Theater Systems): Compressed digital audio, developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc., which enables multi-channel like Dolby Digital. As the compression ratio is lower than for Dolby Digital, it provides wider dynamic range and better separation. – MLP: Compressed digital audio which enables lossless compression of DVD Audio. Connections (see pages 3 to 6) Changing the Color System and Scanning Mode: • Do not change to progressive scanning mode in the following cases: – When your TV does not support the progressive video input. – When you have not connected your TV to the unit using a component video cord. • When you play back an NTSC disc in progressive scanning mode, the System outputs the NTSC signal regardless of color system settings. Daily Operations—Playback (see pages 8 to 11) Listening to the Radio: • If you store a new station into an occupied preset number, the previously stored station in that number will be erased. • When you unplug the AC power cord or if a power failure occurs, the preset stations will be erased in a few days. If this happens, preset the stations again. Playing Back a Disc: • On some DVD, SVCD, or VCD discs, the actual operations may be different from what is explained in this manual, due to the programming and disc structure; such differences are not a malfunction of this System. • This System can recognize up to 4 000 files in a disc. Also, the System can recognize up to 150 files per group and up to 99 groups in a disc. – If there are any unplayable files in a folder, those files are also counted in the total file number. – Playable files which do not belong to any groups are handled as Group 1. • CA-MXDK5 only: Some DVD Audio discs prohibit downmix. When you play back such a disc, “LR ONLY” appears on the display and the System plays back the left front and right front signals. • CA-MXDK5 only: When playing back a DVD Audio disc recorded in MLP (Meridian Lossless Packing; a lossless audio compression system that can completely recreate the PCM signals), the signals are recognized as the linear PCM signals, however, no indicator lights up in the display window. • For DVD-VR playback... – When making a disc, use the UDF-Bridge format. – For details about DVD-VR format and playlist, refer to the manual of the recording equipment. – You cannot use reverse Slow-motion playback, Program Play or Random Play. • For MP3/WMA playback... – This System can play back MP3/WMA files with the extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the letter case—upper/lower). – MP3 discs require a longer readout time than regular CDs depending on the complexity of the group/file configuration. – Some MP3/WMA files cannot be played back and will be skipped. This results from their recording processes and conditions. – When making MP3/WMA discs, use ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2 for the disc format. – It is recommended that you make each MP3/WMA file at a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at bit rate of 128 kbps. This System cannot play back files made at a bit rate of less than 64 kbps. • For MPEG-1/MPEG-2 playback... – The stream format should conform to MPEG system/ program stream. – 720 x 576 pixels (25 fps)/720 x 480 pixels (30 fps) is recommended for the highest resolution. – This System also supports the resolutions of 352 x 576/ 480 x 576/352 x 288 pixels (25 fps) and 352 x 480/480 x 480/352 x 240 pixels (30 fps). – The file format should be MP@ML (Main Profile at Main Level)/SP@ML (Simple profile at Main Level)/ MP@LL (Main Profile at Low Level). – Audio streams should conform to MPEG1 Audio layer-2 or MPEG2 Audio Layer-2.

– This System can play back ASF files with the extension code <.asf> (regardless of the letter case–upper/lower). – This System supports ASF files whose resolution is 352 x 288 pixels or less. – Some recorded files may not be able to be played back depending on file characteristics, kind of digital still/ video cameras, or recording conditions. – You cannot use the following functions—Slow-motion playback, A-B Repeat, Program Play and Random Play. • For DivX playback... (CA-MXDK5 only) – This System can play back DivX files with the extension code <.divx> <.div> <.avi> (regardless of the letter case– upper/lower). – When making a disc, use the UDF-Bridge format. “Multi-border” is not supported. – The System supports the DivX files whose resolution is 720 x 480 pixels or less (30 fps), and 720 x 576 pixels or less (25 fps). – Audio stream should conform to MPEG 1 Audio Layer-2 or MPEG Audio Layer-3 (MP3). – The System does not support GMC (Global Motion Compression). – The file encoded in the interlaced scanning mode may not be played back correctly. – You cannot use the following functions—Slow-motion playback, A-B Repeat, Program Play and Random Play. • For JPEG files playback... – This System can play back JPEG files with the extension code <.jpg> or <.jpeg> (regardless of the letter case– upper/lower). – It is recommended that you record a file at 640 x 480 resolution. (If a file has been recorded at a resolution of more than 640 x 480, it will take a long time to be shown.) – This System can play only baseline JPEG files*. Progressive JPEG files* or lossless JPEG files* cannot be played. * Baseline JPEG format: Used for digital cameras, web, etc. Progressive JPEG format:Used for web. Lossless JPEG format: An old type and rarely used now. – This System may not play back JPEG files properly if they are recorded on devices other than digital still camera. Daily Operations—Sound & Other Adjustments (see pages 12 to 14) Creating 3-dimensional Sound Field—3D Phonic: • While you use the headphones, 3D Phonic mode is canceled temporary. • When you activate the mic mixing, 3D Phonic mode is canceled temporary. • 3D Phonic setting is also applied to the optical digital output signals through the OPTICAL DIGITAL OUTPUT terminal. Creating Your Own Sound Modes —User Mode: • When you unplug the AC power cord or if a power failure occurs, the User Mode settings will be erased in a few days. If this happens, set the User Mode again. Setting the Clock: • “0:00” will flash on the display until you set the clock. • The clock may gain or lose 1 to 2 minutes per month. If this happens, reset the clock. Unique DVD/VCD Operations (see pages 15 to 17) Selecting the Sound Track: • On some DVD Video discs, you cannot change audio languages while playing back. Playing Back a Bonus Group (CA-MXDK5 only): • You cannot select a track in the bonus group for Program Play. Special Picture Playback: • During slow-motion playback, no sound will be reproduced. • While zoomed in, the picture may look coarse. Advanced Disc Operations (see pages 18 to 20) Programming the Playing Order—Program Play: • While programming steps... Your entry will be ignored if you have tried to program an item number that does not exist on the disc (for example, selecting track 14 on a disc that only has 12 tracks). Playing Repeatedly: • A-B Repeat cannot be used on some DVDs. • A-B Repeat is possible only within the same title or within the same track.

Operations Using the On-screen Bar: • For DVD-R/-RW in the VR format, “PG” or “PL” appears instead of “TITLE” on the on-screen bar. Recording Operations (see pages 26 and 27) Recording on a Tape: • The recording level is automatically set correctly. Thus, you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the recording level. • There is leader tape which cannot be recorded onto at the start and the end of cassette tapes. Thus, when recording discs or radio broadcasts, wind the leader tape first to ensure that the recording will be made without any music part lost. • If no cassette or a protected tape is inserted, “NO REC” appears on the display. • You cannot change the source during recording. Synchronized Disc Recording: • While recording, you cannot use ¢/4, ¡/1, DVD LEVEL, 3D PHONIC and source buttons. • You can adjust volume control, sound setting (Active Bass Extension and Sound Turbo) and sound mode but the settings do not affect the recording sound. • Everything on the disc goes onto the tape in the order on the disc, or according to the order you have made for Program Play. • You cannot use Repeat Play during synchronized recording (Repeat Play will be canceled). Enjoying Karaoke (see pages 28 to 31) Singing Along (Karaoke) • CA-MXDK5 only: Key control cannot be activated while DVD Audio is played. Singing Along Using Stereo Discs—Vocal Masking: • Vocal Masking Mode setting is also applied to the optical digital output signals through the OPTICAL DIGITAL OUTPUT terminal. • On some music, Vocal Masking does not provide the correct effect. Reserving Karaoke Songs—Karaoke Program Play • If DVD Audio (CA-MXDK5 only) or DVD-VR is loaded, you cannot use Karaoke Program Play. Timer Operations (see pages 32 and 33) Setting the Timer: • If you do not specify the preset station or track number correctly while setting a timer, the currently selected station or the first track will be played when the timer is activated. • When you unplug the AC power cord or if a power failure occurs, the timer will be canceled. You need to set the clock first, then the timer again. • Without stopping the recording, you cannot change the source after Recording Timer starts recording. • If you set DVD Video/MPEG-1/MPEG-2/ASF/DivX as the source, Daily Timer will not work correctly. Timer Priority: • If you set the Sleep Timer after Daily Timer starts playing the selected source, Daily Timer is canceled. • If you set the Sleep Timer after Recording Timer starts recording, Recording Timer is canceled, but recording continues until Sleep Timer shuts off the power. Setup Menu Operations (see pages 34 and 35) How to set the Initial Settings: • If the upper and lower parts of the menu are cut off, adjust the picture size control of the TV. LANGUAGE menu: • When the language you have selected for MENU LANGUAGE, AUDIO LANGUAGE, or SUBTITLE is not recorded on a disc, the original language is used as the initial language. PICTURE menu—MONITOR TYPE: • Even if “4:3 PS/4:3 MULTI PS” is selected, the screen size may become 4:3 letter box with some DVD Video discs. This depends on how the discs are recorded. • When you select “16:9/16:9 MULTI” for a picture whose aspect ratio is 4:3, the picture slightly changes due to the process for converting the picture width. AUDIO menu—DOWN MIX: • This setting is not effective when DTS multi-channel software is played back.
