LOCK (Parental Control)
Rating
Some movies contain scenes that may not be suitable
for children to view. Many of these discs contain paren-
tal control information that applies to the complete disc
or to certain scenes on the disc. Movies and scenes are
rated from 1 to 8, depending on the country. Some discs
offer more suitable scenes as an alternative.
The parental control feature allows you to block access
to scenes below the rating you input, thereby prevent-
ing your children from being able to view material you
believe is unsuitable.
1 Select "Rating" on the LOCK menu then press
the Cursor right (3 ) key.
2 To access the Rating, Password and Country Code
features, you must input the 4-digit security code
you created. If you have not yet entered a secu-
rity code you are prompted to do so.
Input a digit code and press ENTER key. Enter
it again and press ENTER key to verify. If you
make a mistake before pressing ENTER key,
press CLEAR key.
3 Select a rating from 1 to 8 using the Cursor up/
down (5/∞) keys.
Rating 1-8: Rating one (1) has the most restrictions and
rating eight (8) is the least restrictive.
Unlock
If you select unlock, parental control is not active and the
disc plays in full.
If you set a rating for the player, all disc scenes with the
same rating or lower are played. Higher rated
scenes are not played unless an alternate scene is avail-
able on the disc. The alternative must have the same rat-
ing or a lower one. If no suitable alternative is found, play-
back stops. You must enter the 4-digit password or
change the rating level in order to play the disc.
4 Press ENTER key to confirm your rating selec-
tion, then press SETUP key to exit the menu.

AUDIO
Each DVD disc has a variety of audio output options. Set
the player’s AUDIO options according to the type of
audio system you use.
Dolby Digital/ DTS/ MPEG
Bitstream: Select "Bit stream" if you connect the DVD
Player’s DIGITAL OUT jack to an amplifier or other
equipment with a Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG de-
coder.
PCM (for Dolby Digital/ MPEG): Select when con-
nected to a two-channel digital stereo amplifier.
DVDs encoded in Dolby Digital or MPEG will be auto-
matically down mixed to two-channel PCM audio.
Off (for DTS): If you select “Off'', the DTS signal is
not output through the DIGITAL OUT jack.
Sample Freq. (Frequency)
If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of handling
96 kHz signals, select 48 kHz. When this choice is made,
this unit automatically converts any 96 kHz signals to 48
kHz so your system can decode them.
If your receiver or amplifier is capable of handling 96 kHz
signals, select 96 kHz. When this choice is made, this unit
passes each type of signal through without any further
processing.
Check the documentation for your amplifier to verify its
capabilities.
When the disc prohibits 96 kHz digital output, the signal
always is put out after down-conversion.
DRC (Dynamic Range Control)
With the DVD format, you can hear a program's
soundtrack in the most accurate and realistic presenta-
tion possible, thanks to digital audio technology. How-
ever, you may wish to compress the dynamic range of
the audio output (the difference between the loudest
sounds and the quietest ones). This allows you to listen
to a movie at a lower volume without losing clarity of
sound. Set DRC to On for this effect.
This function operates only at the time of playback of
DVDs recorded with Dolby Digital.
Vocal
Set to on only when a multi-channel karaoke DVD is
playing. The karaoke channels on the disc mix into nor-
mal stereo sound.
