Pioneer Stereo System - Manual (Page 14)

• Menu Selection and Track Programming by Mouse
You can control the player using a computer mouse. At a click,
a menu with a list of icons for play appears on the screen.
Using the setup menu, you can adjust various parameters of the
player. Moreover, you can program tracks from DVDs and
CDs using the mouse and on-screen menus.
• Control via Keyboard
Using F1-F5 keys and the numeric keypad on a PC keyboard,
you can choose modes and efficiently enter text for disc titles
and artist names from a keyboard.
• Combining Audio with Video
When you combine two of the DV-F07, you can set one to
output an audio signal and the other to output a video signal.
This lets you enjoy video against the music or sound effect of
your choice, or listen to music against the image of your choice.
• Playback Control from External RS-232C Commander
The built-in RS-232C communications port allows external
control of setup and playback functions using RS-232C commands.
HDMI ™ Interface (DV-79AVi*/DV-46AV)
The DV-79AVi and DV-46AV feature
HDMI
™ (High Definition Multimedia
Interface), an uncompressed, all-digital
audio/video interface, which is the first industry-supported unit
of its kind. Its benefits over conventional terminals include:
• A high bit rate, up to 2.2 Gbps for HDTV, for processing
large amounts of uncompressed, high-quality data for both
video and audio signals.
• Ensured lossless transmission for high picture and sound
quality, as signals remain in a pure digital state, without D/A or
A/D conversion.
• Transmission of both video and audio signals through a single
cable, and with much smaller plugs than DVI, which handles
video signals only.
HDMI is compatible with the pixel counts of all the current
ATSC digital television formats, and supports up to eight
channels of audio**. In addition, HDMI for the Elite DVD
players also supports DVD Audio, for high-spec sound.
Pioneer's Elite Plasma Display Panels and new Elite A/V
receivers — VSX-84TXSi, VSX-82TXS, VSX-81TXV, and
VSX-80TXV — also come with HDMI interfaces.
*Depending on the component you have connected, using a DVI connection may result in
unreliable signal transfer.
**The units allow output of Linear PCM (2-channel and 5.1-channel) and compressed
audio (Dolby Digital, DTS, and MPEG).
i.LINK (IEEE1394) (DV-79AVi)
Today's sophisticated multi-channel audio recordings
deliver a new level of sound quality unlike anything
that came before. In order to deliver these digital
signals, new methods of transmission were developed. i.LINK
connectivity allows you to simplify your system and expand its
performance at the same time. It's an advanced digital interface
that provides an avenue for the transmission of DVD-Audio
and SACD (Super Audio CD) music. In addition, i.LINK
streamlines connection between the source player and the
receiver. What used to take up to six different connections to
achieve, i.LINK handles with one simple digital connection.
i.LINK and are the trademarks of Sony Corporation.
Advantages
• Easy operation
- A single i.LINK cable can deliver multichannel digital audio,
as well as control and other types of data.
- Transmission of DVD-Video, SACD, CD, VCD,
DVD-RW, and MP3 data is supported.
- Automatic output selection, auto play and input selection in
conjunction with the VSX-84TXSi Pioneer Elite A/V
receiver.
• High-quality transmission
- PQLS (Precision Quartz Lock System) enables jitter-free
transmission.
• Network compatibility
- Supports S400 (400 MB/sec.) transmission speed.
- Two 4-pin connectors.
- Connection with A&M Protocol (Audio & Music Data
Transmission Protocol) equipment to enable the transmission
of audio data and MIDI data on an IEEE1394 bus.
- DTCP (Digital Transmission Content Protection)
encryption to provide for digital connections between
components.
Audio/Video Connections
On its rear panel, each Pioneer Elite DVD player is provided
with an array of inputs and outputs for digital and analog
sources. This means there are many ways to improve, upgrade
and expand your home theater system.
Dolby Digital/Linear PCM digital outputs (optical and
coaxial) can be connected to the matching inputs on a DTS-
compatible amplifier or receiver for DTS (Digital Theater
System). You can customize your system's configuration
according to your home theater environment.
The component video output provides the highest level
of picture quality. It keeps the video output from a DVD in its
three separate components — P
R , P B and Y. This format,
which is standard in professional video, delivers color images
with much higher precision and definition than the common
composite video output used in consumer video products.
Degradation due to interference is kept to a minimum. You
enjoy a picture practically free of noise, with improved color
fidelity and high color purity.

Photo + Music Mix (JPEG Slideshow with Music)
(DV-46AV)
The DV-46AV Elite DVD player lets you play back JPEG still
photos and MP3/WMA music files from a loaded disc at the
same time. This means you can enjoy watching digital still
photos enlarged on your TV screen while your favorite tunes
play as background music — ideal for parties and more.
Condition Memory (DVD) (DV-F07)
Load a disc, and the player automatically recalls the set of
playback parameters you've selected for it — aspect ratio,
soundtrack, subtitle, and OSD position. Once you've
memorized the conditions for a disc, the Elite DVD player will
identify the disc each time you play it and start playback in the
conditions selected. Conditions for up to 100 discs can be
memorized. Setup is as simple as pressing the "CONDITION"
button when you're through viewing a disc. Memory is
managed on the LRU (Least Recently Used) basis: the data
(condition) for the disc that is not recalled longest is
automatically erased to make room to store the data (condition)
of a new disc.
Continue Play Memory (DVD/VCD) (DV-F07)
When you interrupt play of a disc, Continue Play Memory
(Last Memory) lets you store in memory the last settings for it —
aspect ratio, soundtrack, subtitle, and other parameters — as well
as the location where you left off. So, the next time you play the
disc, you can resume play from the same point, using the same
settings. For additional convenience, the settings in memory are
not disturbed even if you have played other DVDs and adjusted
settings in the interim; they are kept for instant recall. You can
store the last settings for up to five DVDs and one VCD.
* Continue Play Memory will be cleared once a loaded VCD is removed.
Custom-File 300-DVD/CD Playback (DV-F07)
The DV-F07 is the world's first 300+1 DVD/CD changer.
Couple two of them, and you can even control an incredible
601 discs — DVDs, CDs and combinations. In addition, it
can play back CD-R and CD-RW discs you make on your own.
Ease of use is enhanced with GUI (Graphical User Interface)
allowing access and control of up to 300 discs.
• Auto Update
At the touch of a button, all loaded discs are automatically
given unique identities (addresses) by type (DVD or CD) and
contents (TOC and CD Text). It makes possible a number of
conveniences.
• Disc Identification
Each disc — that is, its disc title and the artist's name — is
identified not by a slot number in the rack but its contents
stored in memory. So even when you move a disc from one slot
to another, its title and artist name remain identified.
• Title Input by Mouse or PC Keyboard
You can conveniently and efficiently enter disc titles, artist
names, and custom file names for "data retrieval" using a PC
keyboard or computer mouse*.
*Neither a PC keyboard nor a mouse is included in the package.
• On-Screen Disc Management System
You can display lists of identified discs and artist names on-
screen and select the desired disc using a PC mouse or a
joystick. You can sort discs by title or artist name for easy
search of a wanted disc.
• Custom Filing
The custom filing gives organization to your DVD/CD library.
Refer to page 48 for details. With the DV-F07, you can divide
300 loaded discs into twenty groups or custom files (ten for
audio, ten for video), each holding up to 300 discs. You can give
a name of up to 12 letters to each of the twenty files for display
on the screen and selection from the menu.
