Connecting up 02 12 En 1 Connect the VIDEO OUT and AUDIO OUT L/R jacks to a set of A/V inputs on your TV. Use the supplied audio/video cable, connecting the red and white plugs to the audio outputs and the yellow plug to the video output. Make sure you match up the left and right audio outputs with their corresponding inputs for correct stereo sound. See below if you want to use a component or S-video cable for the video connection. 2 Connect the supplied AC power cable to the AC IN inlet, then plug into a power outlet. Note Ã¢ÂÂ¢ Before unplugging the player from the power outlet, make sure you first switch it into standby using either the front panel Ã®ÂÂ STANDBY/ON button, or the remote control, and wait of the -OFF- message to disappear from the playerÃ¢ÂÂs display. Ã¢ÂÂ¢ For the above reasons, do not plug this player into a switched power supply found on some amplifiers and AV receivers. Connecting using a SCART AV cable A SCART-type AV connector is provided for connection to a TV or AV receiver. The video output is switchable between ordinary composite and RGB. See AV Connector Out on page 36 for how to set it. The SCART AV connector also outputs analog audio, so there is no need to also connect the AUDIO OUT L/R jacks. 1 Use a SCART cable (not supplied) to connect the AV CONNECTOR (RGB) output to a SCART AV input on your TV (or AV receiver).

Connecting up 02 13 En Connecting using the component video output You can use the component video output instead of the standard video out jack to connect this player to your TV (or other equipment). This should give you the best quality picture from the three types of video output available. Ã¢ÂÂ¢ Use a component video cable (not supplied) to connect the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks to a component video input on your TV, monitor or AV receiver. Watching progressive scan video from the component video outputs This player can output progressive scan video from the component video output. Compared to interlace video, progressive scan video effectively doubles the scanning rate of the picture, resulting in a very stable, flicker-free image. To set up the player for use with a progressive scan TV, see Video Output settings on page 35. When the player is set to output progressive scan video, the PRGSVE indicator lights in the front panel display. Important Ã¢ÂÂ¢ When Component Out (page 35) is set to Progressive , there is no video output from the VIDEO OUT (composite) jack. Ã¢ÂÂ¢ If you want to display video on more than one monitor simultaneously, make sure the player is set to Interlace . Ã¢ÂÂ¢ If you connect a TV that is not compatible with a progressive scan signal and switch the player to progressive, you will not be able to see any picture at all. In this case, switch everything off and reconnect using the supplied video cable (see Easy connections on page 11), then switch back to Interlace (see below). Switching the video output to interlace using the front panel controls Switch the player to standby then, using the front panel controls, press Ã®ÂÂ STANDBY/ON while pressing Ã®ÂÂ to switch the player back to Interlace . Ã¢ÂÂ¢ DV-490V only: If the player is connected using HDMI, disconnect the HDMI cable before resetting the player to interlace output.

Connecting up 02 14 En Connecting to an AV receiver To enjoy multichannel surround sound you need to connect this player to an AV receiver using the digital audio output. In addition to a digital connection, we recommend also connecting using the stereo analog connection. YouÃ¢ÂÂll probably also want to connect a video output to your AV receiver. You can use any of the video outputs available on this player (the illustration shows a standard (composite) connection). 1 Connect the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT COAXIAL jack on this player to a coaxial digital input on your AV receiver. Use a coaxial cable (similar to the supplied video cable) to connect the COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack to a coaxial input on your AV receiver. 2 Connect the analog AUDIO OUT L/R and VIDEO OUT jacks on this player to a set of analog audio and video inputs on your AV receiver. Ã¢ÂÂ¢ You can use the SCART AV connector, or the S-video or component video jacks to connect to the AV receiver if you prefer. Connecting using HDMI (DV- 490V only) If you have a HDMI equipped monitor or display, you can connect it to this player using a commercially available HDMI cable. The HDMI connector outputs uncompressed digital video, as well as almost every kind of digital audio that the player is compatible with, including DVD-Video, Video CD/Super VCD, CD and MP3. 1 Use an HDMI cable to connect the HDMI OUT interconnect on this player to an HDMI interconnect on a HDMI-compatible monitor.

Note Ã¢ÂÂ¢ This unit has been designed to be compliant with HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) . Depending on the component you have connected, using a DVI connection may result in unreliable signal transfers. Ã¢ÂÂ¢ When you change the component connected to the HDMI output, you will also need to change the HDMI settings to match the new component (see HDMI Out on page 35, HDMI Resolution on page 36 and HDMI Color on page 36 to do this). However, the settings for each component are then stored in memory (for up to 2 components). Ã¢ÂÂ¢ The HDMI connection is compatible with 44.1 kHz/48 kHz, 16 bit/20 bit/24 bit 2 channel linear PCM signals, as well as Doldy Digital, DTS and MPEG audio bitstream. About HDMI HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) supports both video and audio on a single digital connection for use with DVD players, DTV, set-top boxes, and other AV devices. HDMI was developed to provide the technologies of High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) as well as Digital Visual Interface (DVI) in one specification. HDCP is used to protect digital content transmitted and received by DVI-compliant displays. HDMI has the capability to support standard, enhanced, or high-definition video plus standard to multi-channel surround-sound audio. HDMI features include uncompressed digital video, a bandwidth of up to 2.2 gigabytes per second (with HDTV signals), one connector (instead of several cables and connectors), and communication between the AV source and AV devices such as DTVs.

Getting started 04 23 En FAQ Ã¢ÂÂ¢ After I load a DVD disc, it ejects automatically after a few seconds! Most likely, the disc is the wrong region for your player. The region number should be printed on the disc; check it against the region number of the player (which you can find on the rear panel). See also DVD-Video regions on page 42. If the region number is OK, it may be that the disc is damaged or dirty. Clean the disc and look for signs of damage. See also Taking care of your player and discs on page 40. Ã¢ÂÂ¢ Why wonÃ¢ÂÂt the disc I loaded play? First check that you loaded the disc the right way up (label side up), and that itÃ¢ÂÂs clean and undamaged. See Taking care of your player and discs on page 40 for information on cleaning discs. If a disc loaded correctly wonÃ¢ÂÂt play, itÃ¢ÂÂs probably an incompatible format or disc type, such as DVD-Audio or DVD-ROM. See Disc / content format playback compatibility on page 8 for more on disc compatibility. Ã¢ÂÂ¢I have a widescreen TV so why are there black bars at the top and bottom of the screen when I play some discs? Some movie formats are such that even when played on a widescreen TV, black bars are necessary at the top and bottom of the screen. This is not a malfunction. Ã¢ÂÂ¢I have a standard (4:3) TV and set the player to show widescreen DVDs in pan & scan format, so why do I still get black bars top and bottom with some discs? Some discs override the display preferences of the player, so even if you have 4:3 (Pan & Scan) selected, those discs will still be shown in letter box format. This is not a malfunction. Ã¢ÂÂ¢ IÃ¢ÂÂve connected to a HDMI compatible component but I canÃ¢ÂÂt get any signal and the front panel HDMI indicator wonÃ¢ÂÂt light! Make sure that youÃ¢ÂÂve selected this player as the HDMI input in the settings for the component youÃ¢ÂÂre using. You may need to refer to the instruction manual of the component to do this. See Connecting using HDMI (DV-490V only) on page 14 for more on HDMI compatibility. Ã¢ÂÂ¢ ThereÃ¢ÂÂs no picture from the HDMI output! This player cannot display pictures from DVI compatible sources. See Connecting using HDMI (DV-490V only) on page 14 for more on HDMI compatibility. Make sure the resolution on this player matches that of the component you have connected using HDMI.

Additional information 08 40 En Chapter 8 Additional information Taking care of your player and discs General Hold discs by the edge or by the center hole and edge. When you're not using a disc, return it to its case and store upright. Avoid leaving discs in excessively cold, humid, or hot environments (including under direct sunlight). Don't glue paper or put stickers on to discs. Do not use a pencil, ball-point pen or other sharp- tipped writing instrument to write on the disc. DonÃ¢ÂÂt use self-adhesive disc labels on discs as these can cause the disc to warp slightly during playback causing distortion in the picture and/or sound. Damaged and shaped discs Do not use cracked, chipped, warped, or otherwise damaged discs as they may damage the player. This player is designed to be used only with conventional, fully circular discs. Do not use shaped discs. Pioneer disclaims all liability arising in connection with the use of shaped discs. Cleaning discs Fingerprints and dust on discs can affect playback performance. Clean using a soft, dry cloth, wiping the disc lightly from the center to the outside edge as shown below. If necessary, use a cloth soaked in alcohol, or a commercially available CD/DVD cleaning kit to clean a disc more thoroughly. Never use benzine, thinner or other cleaning agents, including products designed for cleaning vinyl records. Cleaning the unitÃ¢ÂÂs exterior Unplug the unit before cleaning. Use a dry cloth to wipe off dust and dirt. If the surfaces are very dirty, wipe with a soft cloth dipped in some neutral cleanser diluted five or six times with water and wrung out well, then wipe again with a dry cloth. Do not use furniture wax or cleaners. Never use thinners, benzine or insecticide sprays or other chemicals on or near this unit. DV393_WV.book Page 40 Wednesday, January 25, 2006 11:19 AM
Additional information 08 41 En If you use a chemical-impregnated cleaning cloth, read the instructions carefully before use. These cloths may leave smear marks on half-mirror finish surfaces; if this happens, finish with a dry cloth. Cleaning the pickup lens The DVD playerÃ¢ÂÂs lens should not become dirty in normal use, but if for some reason it should malfunction due to dust or dirt, consult your nearest Pioneer-authorized service center. We do not recommend using commercially available lens cleaners for CD players. Condensation Condensation may form inside the player if it is brought into a warm room from outside, or if the temperature of the room rises quickly.

Widescreen TV users If you have a widescreen TV, the TV Screen setting (page 35) of this player should be set to 16:9 (Wide) . When you watch discs recorded in 4:3 format, you can use the TV controls to select how the picture is presented. Your TV may offer various zoom and stretch options; see the instructions that came with your TV for details. Please note that some movie aspect ratios are wider than 16:9, so even though you have a widescreen TV, these discs will still play in a Ã¢ÂÂletter boxÃ¢ÂÂ style with black bars at the top and bottom of the screen. Standard TV users If you have a standard TV, the TV Screen setting (page 35) of this player should be set to 4:3 (Letter Box) or 4:3 (Pan&Scan) , depending on which you prefer. Set to 4:3 (Letter Box) , widescreen discs are shown with black bars top and bottom. Set to 4:3 (Pan&Scan) , widescreen discs are shown with the left and right sides cropped. Although the picture looks larger, you donÃ¢ÂÂt actually see the whole picture. Please note that many widescreen discs override the playerÃ¢ÂÂs settings so that the disc is shown in letter box format regardless of the setting.
