Not JPEG files but MP3 files are played. Hard to listen to broadcast because of noise. Continuous static during FM broadcasts. One-touch DVD play does not work though you have connected AV COMPU LINK cord correctly. Suddenly, the system turns off by itself. The indications on the moving panel is displayed upside-down. NOTE: Problems may be caused by the components connected to the system. So read also the manuals for the components carefully. POSSIBLE CAUSE No MP3 files are recorded on the disc. MP3 files do not have the file extension —.mp3, .Mp3, .mP3, or .MP3 in their file names. MP3 files are not recorded in the format compliant with ISO 9660 Level 1 or 2. The different types of files are recorded on a disc. The MP3/JPEG setting is set to “JPEG.” Any MP3 files or JPEG files are not recorded on the disc, or the disc is the unplayable disc (such as CD-ROM). No JPEG files are recorded on the disc. JPEG files do not have the correct file extension in their file names. JPEG files are not recorded in the format compliant with ISO 9660 Level 1 or 2. The MP3/JPEG setting is set to “MP3.” Antennas are disconnected. The AM loop antenna is too close to the center unit. The supplied FM antenna is not properly extended and positioned. Beat Cut mode is not set properly while listening to an AM broadcast. The received signal is too weak. The station is too far away. AV COMPULINK MODE setting is incorrect. The Sleep or Auto Standby function is activated. DISP.SET selector is not set correctly. SOLUTION Replace the disc. Add the file extension—.mp3, .Mp3, .mP3, or .MP3—to their file names. (See page 51.) Replace the disc. (Record MP3 files using a compliant application.) The disc which contains the different types of files may not be played because of its disc characteristics or recording conditions. When both MP3 files and JPEG files are recorded on a disc, to play MP3 files, set the setting to “MP3.” (See page 58.) Replace the disc. (See page 6.) Replace the disc. Add the file extension—.jpg, .jpeg, .JPG, .JPEG or any uppercase and lowercase combination (such as “.Jpg”)—to their file names. (See page 53.) Replace the disc. (Record JPEG files using a compliant application.) When both MP3 files and JPEG files are recorded on a disc, to play JPEG files, set the setting to “JPEG.” (See page 58.) Reconnect the antennas correctly and securely. Change the position and direction of the AM loop antenna. Extend the FM antenna at the best position. Try to change the Beat Cut mode. (See page 32.) Connect an external FM antenna (see page 11), or contact your dealer. Select another station. Set it correctly according to the video input jack on the TV you use. (See page 67.)

75 Glossary Aspect ratio The ratio of vertical and horizontal sizes of a displayed image. The horizontal vs. vertical ratio of conventional TVs is 4:3, and that of wide-screens is 16:9. Chapter Refers to individual chapters included in a title. Composite video signal Refers to video signal comprised of three kinds of signals combined: an image signal made up of luminance and chrominance signals using the frequency multiplication technique; burst signal providing the basis for color reproduction; and synchronization signal. Component video signal A video signal system where parts of information necessary for reproducing image signal comprised of the three primary colors of light are transmitted via separate signal lines. Types of signal, such as R/G/B, Y/P B/PR, etc., are available. Disc menu A screen display prepared for allowing selection of images, sounds, subtitles, multiangles, etc. recorded on a DVD. Interlaced scan In the conventional video system, a picture is shown on the display monitor in two halves. The Interlaced scan system places lines of the second half of the picture in-between lines of the first half of the picture. JPEG A still-picture data compression system proposed by the Joint Photographic Expert Group, which features small decrease in image quality in spite of its high compression ratio. Linear PCM (PCM: Pulse Code Modulation) A system for converting analog sound signal to digital signal for later processing, with no data compression used in conversion. Letter box A method of displaying wide images like movies in the center of a 4:3 TV screen with no part of the image deleted, by placing black bands on the top and bottom of the screen. This name has resulted from the screen form looking literally like a letter box. MP3 A file format with a sound data compression system. “MP3” is the abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group 1 (or MPEG-1) Audio Layer 3. By using MP3 format, one CD-R or CD-RW can contain about 10 times as much data volume as a regular CD can. Multi-angle By recording multiple scenes progressing at the same time in a single title, the user can select view angles. This feature is called the multiangle function. Multichannel DVD is specified to have each sound track constitute one sound field. Multichannel refers to a structure of sound tracks having three or more channels. Multilanguage When a title is created to cope with multiple languages, it is generally called a multilanguage title. Parental lock A feature of this system to automatically determine whether or not to reproduce particular DVD software by comparing its parental level (a measure of undesirability of scenes, etc. from educational viewpoint) set for the software beforehand with that set on this system by the user; if the software’s level is less restrictive than the user-set level, it will be reproduced. Playback control (PBC) Refers to the signal recorded on video CDs or SVCDs for controlling reproduction. By using menu screens recorded on a Video CD or SVCD that supports PBC, you can enjoy interactive-type software as well as software having a search function. Progressive scan Progressive scan displays all the horizontal lines of a picture at one time, as a single frame. This system can convert the interlaced video from DVD into progressive format for connection to a progressive display. It dramatically increases the vertical resolution. Region code A system for allowing discs to be played back only in the regions designated beforehand. All the countries in the world are divided into six regions, each region being identified by a specified region code (or region number). If the region code given to a disc includes a numeral which matches one in the region code of a player, the player can play back the disc. Surround A system for creating three-dimensional sound fields full of realism by arranging multiple speakers around the listener. Sampling frequency Frequency of sampling data when analog data is converted to digital data. Sampling frequency numerically represents how many times the original analog signal is sampled per second. Transfer rate The rate of transferring digital data. Usually the measure is in baud per second. The DVD system applies a variable transfer rate system for high efficiency.
