Note that there will be no audio playback during fast-forward or

NOTES:

• Playback features may not be available during the opening credits

of a movie. This is intended by the disc author and is not a failure
of the CS receiver.

• Playback of a DVD with 96kHz/24-bit audio requires the use of

circuitry normally used for other features. Accordingly, Slow
Play Reverse and Step Advance features are not available with
these discs.

• Depending on the structure of a VCD disc, the functions Slow

Reverse and Step Reverse may be prohibited or have no function
and Fast Playback (Search) may not function.

• Fast Playback (Search) will not function with CDs containing

MP3 data.

About DivX Movie Files
The DivX disc compatibility of this DVD player is limited by the
following:

• The available resolution size of the DivX file should be below

720x576 (W x H) pixels.

• The total number of files and folders on the disc should be fewer

than 999.

• The number of screen frames per second should be below 29.97

frames per second.

• The video and audio structure of recorded files should be

interleaved.

• The player is capable of playing DivX files with the extension

“.avi.”

• The player is capable of playing subtitle files with the extensions

“.smi,” “.srt,” “.sub” (Micro DVD format only) or “.ssa.” Other
subtitle files won’t be displayed. Subtitle files need to carry the
same name as the movie file (but with either one of the above
extensions) and should be located in the same directory.

I to stop the playback.

The DVD player’s playback functionalities of DivX video discs will
vary depending on the DivX version used for creating your movies.

Surround Modes

One of the most important features of the CS3/CS5 receiver is its
ability to reproduce a full multichannel surround sound field from
digital sources, analog Matrix surround-encoded programs and
standard Stereo programs.

Selection of a surround mode is based on personal taste, as well as
the type of program source material being used. For example,
motion pictures, CDs or TV programs bearing the logo of one of the
major surround-encoding processes (such as Dolby Surround)
should be played in either the Dolby Pro Logic II Movie (with
movies) or Music (with music) surround mode.

Surround modes and audio formats are selected using the remote.
Press the Audio Button

5 to toggle between the surround modes/

audio formats available on the DVD disc. As you press the button,
the surround mode/audio format name will appear in your video
display.

When a digital source is present, the CS receiver will automatically
select and switch to the correct mode (Dolby Digital or DTS),
regardless of the mode that has been previously selected.

To listen to a DVD program in traditional 2-channel stereo, using the
front left and front right speakers only (plus the subwoofer, if
installed and configured), follow the instructions shown in the DVD
Sound Mode chapter, in the Audio Settings menu.
