    Accessories Included with your HD DVD Player Accessories Check that the following accessories are supplied. Remote control Batteries (AAA)x2 Things to Consider Before You Connect Protect Against Power Surges • Connect all components before you plug any of their power cords into the wall outlet. • Turn off the TV and/or components before you connect or disconnect any cables. • Make sure all antennas and cables are properly grounded. Refer to the Important Safeguards sheet packed with your HD DVD player. Protect Components from Overheating • Don’t block ventilation holes on any of the components. Arrange the components so that air can circulate freely. • Don’t stack components. • When you place components in a stand, make sure you allow adequate ventilation. • If you connect an audio receiver or amplifier, place it on the top shelf so the heated air from it won’t flow around other components. Position Cables Properly to Avoid Audio Interference • Insert each cable firmly into the designated jack. • If you place components above the TV, route all cables down the side of the back of the TV instead of straight down the middle of the back of the TV. • If your antenna uses 300-ohm twin lead cables, do not coil the cables. Also, keep the twin lead cables away from audio/video cables.
  • Page 9: Types Of Discs Your Hd Dvd Player Will Play

    Types of Discs Your HD DVD player will Play • HD DVD video discs – because this is a new format, disc compatibility issues are possible. If you experi- ence a disc compatibility problem, contact RCA Customer Support. Note: Some content providers may use an Image Constraint Token (ICT) for HD DVD movie titles played through an analog connection. An ICT constrains the picture to half the resolution of a full HD picture. If an ICT is used, the content provider is required to put a warning label on the disc to let consumers know of the limitation.

    Connections and Setup Other Features Internet connection feature (LAN port) You can connect to a network with an always-on broadband connection and access special HD DVD sites. System Requirements For high definition video playback: • High definition display (720p and 1080i input capable). • HD DVD disc with high definition content. • HDMI or HDCP capable DVI input on your display device required for some content (as specified by disc authors). For up-conversion of standard definition DVD, an HDMI or HDCP capable DVI input on your display • device is required for copy protected content. For Dolby® Digital Plus and DTS-HD (DTS core only) multi-channel audio playback: • Receiver or processor/amp combination with 5.1ch channel analog input or HDMI™ multi-channel LPCM capable audio input. • Main, center, surround speakers and subwoofer as necessary for chosen format. For on-line interactive features: • Ethernet connection to customer supplied always-on broadband internet service. • Some features may require higher bandwidth. s&c1.indd 6 chapter 1 3/15/06 9:30:56 AM...
  • Page 11: ChoosNg The Best ConnectOn To Your Tv

    Choosing the Best Connection to Your TV In order to view high definition content from a disc, you will need to connect the HD DVD player to a TV with an HDMI cable or component video (Y, Pb, Pr) cables. To view 480, 720, or 1080 resolution video, use the HDMI connection or the Component video connection. Some discs may require use of the HDMI OUTPUT for viewing of high resolution material. • When you connect the player to your TV, be sure to turn off the power and unplug both units before making any connections. • Connect the player directly to your TV. If you connect the player to a VCR, TV/VCR combination, video selector or AV amplifier, the playback picture may be distorted due to copy protection. • If you TV does not have an HDMI jack or component video jacks, and you can only connect to a com- posite video jack, you will not be able to see high definition content. • Depending on a combination of the characteristics of the connected TV, resolution of the video source, and video output resolution of the player, high-resolution output may not provide the best picture. Change the output resolution according to your preferences. HDMI HDMI stands for High Definition Multimedia Interface. HDMI transfers digital audio and uncompressed digital video on a single cable. If your TV has an HDMI jack, you don’t need to connect any other audio or video cables. • HDMI output is digital only, DVI analog is not supported. • HDMI is an evolving technology, so it is possible that some devices may not operate properly with this player. Copy Protection and High Definition Viewing HD DVD and DVD video disc creators can include copy protection instructions in their discs that prohibit the output of high definition video (original 720p or 1080i or up-converted 480i or 480p) from a component connection. If such instructions are present in the disc you are playing, you must use an HDMI connection to view the disc in a high definition format. If you view the disc through a component connection, the video will play in 480i or 480p resolution. Multi-Channel Audio If your TV or display does not support multi-channel audio, to use multi-channel audio you will need to either use an AV receiver that supports multi-channel audio over HDMI (set “Digital out HDMI” to “Auto” or to match the decoding capability of your equipment) or use a receiver that has a coaxial or optical SPDIF digital audio input (set “Digital audio SPDIF” to match the decoding capability of your equipment). chapter 1 s&c1.indd 7 Connections and Setup 3/15/06 9:30:56 AM...

    Connections and Setup s&c1.indd 8 Install Batteries in the Remote 1. Remove the battery compartment cover on the back of the remote. 2. Insert new batteries. Match the polarities (+ and –) on the batteries with the diagram on the remote. 3. Put the battery compartment cover back on the remote. Important Battery Information • If you’re not going to use the remote for a month or more, be sure to remove the batter- ies because they can leak and cause damage. • Dispose of batteries in the proper manner, according to federal, state, and local regula- tions. • Any battery may leak electrolyte if mixed with a different battery type, if inserted incor- rectly, if all batteries are not replaced at the same time, if disposed of in fire, or if an attempt is made to charge a battery not intended to be recharged. • Discard leaky batteries immediately. Leaking batteries can cause skin burns or other personal injury. Point the Remote in the Right Direction When you want the remote to operate the HD DVD Player, point the remote at the HD DVD Player, not the TV. The remote has to be pointed in the correct direction and toward the correct component in order for the remote control’s signal to communicate with the sensor on the compo- nent. Make sure there is a clear path between the remote control and the component you want to operate so the signal isn’t blocked. chapter 1 3/15/06 9:30:59 AM...
