Additional Information
Last Condition Memory
This player memorizes the last condition for the last
disc you have watched. Settings remain in memory
even if you remove the disc from the player or switch off
the player. If you load a disc that has its settings memo-
rized, the latest stop position is automatically recalled.
Notes
– Settings are stored in memory for use any time.
– This player does not memorize settings of a disc if
you switch off the player before commencing playback.
Screen Saver
A screen saver image appears when you leave the DVD
Player in stop mode for about five minutes.
After the Screen Saver has been engaged for about five
minutes, the DVD Player will automatically turn itself off.
Video Mode Setting

With certain discs, the playback picture may be flick-
ering or Dot Crawl is shown on straight lines. That

video mode.

To change the video mode, press and hold
DISPLAY about 3 seconds during disc playback. The
new video mode number selected is displayed on the
TV screen. Check whether the video quality has
improved. If not, repeat the above procedure until pic-
ture quality is improved.

MODE1 → MODE2 → MODE3 → MODE4 →
MODE5 → MODE1

If you turn off the power, the video mode will return to
initial default state (Auto).
HDCD Playback
HDCD is a process that increases the fidelity of both
specially encoded HDCD discs and standard CD audio
discs. When an HDCD-encoded disc is playing, the spe-
cial decoder is automatically activated and the HDCD
Indicator lights. No user intervention is required.
To enjoy the benefits of HDCD, your DVD Player must
be connected to your A/V receiver via the Analog Audio
Outputs. However, if your A/V receiver or surround
processor is equipped with built-in HDCD decoding, you
may also use a Coaxial or Optical digital audio connec-
tion so that the HDCD processing is done there.
