The Midnight listening feature allows you to hear effective surround sound of movies at low volume levels. The Loudness listening feature can be used to get good bass and treble from music sources at low volume levels. The Quiet listening feature reduces excessive bass or treble in a sound source. 1

Adjusting sound delay

Some monitors have a slight delay when showing video, so the soundtrack will be slightly out of sync with the picture. By adding a bit of delay, you can adjust the sound to match the presentation of the video. There are a total of 60 steps (levels) that you can adjust, with a total range of 200 msec. 1

Using the Virtual Surround Back mode
This mode allows you to hear a virtual surround back channel through your surround speakers. You can choose to listen to sources with no surround back channel information, or if the material sounds better in the format (for example, 5.1) for which it was originally encoded, you can have the receiver only apply this effect to 6.1 encoded sources like Dolby Digital EX or DTS-ES.1
Adjusting the channel levels using the test tone
If you prefer, you can set the channel levels using a test tone as a reference, rather than playing a source (see Channel level setting on page 37). A test tone is played through each speaker in turn, allowing you to adjust the level as it plays. You can also adjust the channel levels for surround sound using test tone. 1 TONE Carry out tone testing. The test tone is output from each speaker in turn. Adjust the volume level below 50.
Select Virtual SB, then press ENTER.

2 Adjust the channel level of a tune while it is playing. The aim is to adjust the levels so that you hear the test tone at the same volume from each speaker. You can adjust the level of each channel by 10 dB. You can adjust the overall volume of test tone output using the VOL +/ buttons (this does not affect the channel level settings). Because of the ultra low frequencies the subwoofer produces, it may sound quieter than it really is. We suggest adjusting the subwoofer level while listening to a source. See the method described in Channel level setting on page 37. 3 ENTER Press to exit test tone setup once you have finished. If you use the Auto MCACC feature again, it will overwrite the settings you have made here.

LFE Attenuate

Some Dolby Digital and DTS audio sources include ultralow bass tones. Set the LFE attenuator as necessary to prevent the ultralow bass tones from distorting the sound from the speakers. The LFE is not limited when set to 0dB, which is the recommended value. When set to -5dB, -10dB, -15dB or -20dB, the LFE is limited by the respective degree. When Off is selected, no sound is output from the LFE channel.
Select LFE ATT, then press ENTER.
Adjust the setting then press ENTER to

About DualDisc playback

A DualDisc is a new two -sided disc, one side of which contains DVD content video, audio, etc. while the other side contains non-DVD content such as digital audio material. The non-DVD, audio side of the disc is not compliant with the CD audio specification and therefore may not play. It is possible that when loading or ejecting a DualDisc, the opposite side to that being played will be scratched. Scratched discs may not be playable. The DVD side of a DualDisc plays in this product. DVD -Audio content will not play. For more detailed information on the DualDisc specification, please refer to the disc manufacturer or disc retailer.

Other disc compatibility

In addition to DVD, this recorder is compatible with a wide range of disc types (media) and formats. Playable discs will generally feature one of the logos on the disc and/or disc packaging shown below. Note however that some disc types, such as recordable CD (and DVD), may be in an unplayable format see below for further compatibility information.
WMA (Windows Media Audio) content
This recorder can playback Windows Media Audio content. WMA is an acronym for Windows Media Audio and refers to an audio compression technology developed by Microsoft Corporation. Windows Media is a trademark of Microsoft Corporation. This product includes technology owned by Microsoft Corporation and cannot be used or distributed without a license from Microsoft Licensing, Inc.

You can change the Language, Country, Postal Code1 and the External Receiver settings. 3 Press ENTER to confirm.
Manual Host Channel setup
The GUIDE Plus+ system will automatically identify your Host Channel as soon as the recorder is put into standby for the first time. See the table on page 72 for a list of all the European Host Channels. If you know your Host Channel details (source and programme number) or if the automatic identification did not provide the expected result, you can identify your Host Channel manually. Select Host Channel Setup in the Setup area and follow the instructions on the TV. Select the correct source (e.g., internal tuner or external receiver) and enter the respective programme number (e.g., if you have to press 9 on the remote to watch your Host Channel, enter 9 as the programme number). When you next switch the recorder into standby the GUIDE Plus+ system will complete the Host Channel setup.
Note 1 Making changes to the Country or Postal Code settings may require a new download of TV listings information. This can take up to 24 hours.

02SDVRLX70D_EN.book 84

My external receiver was successfully setup. However I have found that when the GUIDE Plus+ system has to change to a channel with a three-digit programme number in the external receivers preset, it does not work. It looks like the GUIDE Plus+ system can only send two digits. With the number of channels increasing, the number of digits has increased as well. While older boxes use only two digits, newer boxes require up to four. It is possible that you selected an older code for your brand during set-up. Please access the Setup Area, select External Receiver and repeat the setup for your brand (Note: Every time you see the on-screen question about whether the receiver has changed to a certain channel, the GUIDE Plus+ system has sent a different code). Try all the different codes until your GUIDE Plus+ system can control your external receiver correctly. If you have no success, try to receive new codes overnight. I used to receive data through my terrestrial antenna or analog cable without a set-top box. Now, I have upgraded to a satellite system or to digital cable with external receiver. What should I do to receive data for the GUIDE Plus+ system? You can try to receive your Host Channel through your new reception method. If you have problems to receive data we recommend that you keep your analog terrestrial or cable connection only to receive data this way. It is important that you identify your Host Channel correctly in the Editor Area. After I performed the initial set-up I found that the lineup for all the channels received via the external set top box is incorrect. How do I correct this? You can change the line-up in the editor according to your preferences. Access the Editor Area. Select the channels that you would like to change. Change the source and preset number according to your preferences. I performed the set-up but after many hours I still have a blank EPG what is going wrong? There are several possibilities: Connections are wrong. See Recorder connections on page 62 to double check everything. The initial setup of GUIDE Plus+ was completed incorrectly. Try setting it up again (see Setting up the GUIDE Plus+ system on page 71). Your cabling and setup is OK, but the recorder has not been connected for enough time to receive the TV listings data. Leave the recorder in standby overnight.

Restrictions on video recording
You cannot record copy-protected video using this recorder. Copy-protected video includes DVD-Video discs and some satellite broadcasts. If copy-protected material is encountered during a recording, recording will pause automatically and an error message will be displayed onscreen. Video that is copy-once only can only be recorded to DVD-RAM or HDD, CPRM-compatible VR mode DVD-R/ -RW (see below). When recording a TV broadcast or through an external input, you can display copy control information on screen (see Displaying disc information on-screen on page 112).
HDD Video mode compatibility
When recording to the HDD you can choose to record in one of two formats. Set the format from the HDD Recording Format item in the Initial Setup menu (see page 158). When set to Video Mode On, high-speed copying from HDD to DVD-R/-RW (Video mode) or DVD+R/+RW is possible. When recording a bilingual broadcast, set which channel you want to record from the Initial Setup menu (see Bilingual Recording on page 155). When HDD Recording Format is set to Video Mode Off, high-speed copying from HDD to DVD-R/-RW (Video mode) or DVD+R/+RW isnt possible. However, both channels of bilingual broadcasts are recorded and you can switch the audio on playback.
CPRM is a copy protection/scrambling system developed for the recording of copy once broadcast programmes. CPRM stands for Content Protection for Recordable Media. This recorder is CPRM compatible, which means that you can record copy-once broadcast programmes, but you cannot then make a copy of those recordings. CPRM recordings can only be made on CPRM-compatible DVD -R (ver. 2.0/8x or higher) or DVD-RW (ver. 1.1 or higher) discs formatted in VR mode, DVD-RAM discs or on the HDD. DVD CPRM recordings can only be played on players that are specifically compatible with CPRM.
Recording equipment and copyright

Recorded audio

In all except the LPCM mode, sound is recorded in two channel Dolby Digital format (only Dolby Digital 2.0 can be recorded; Dolby Digital 5.1 recording is not possible). When set to LPCM, sound is recorded in high quality, uncompressed Linear PCM format. If the broadcast audio is bilingual and you are recording to DVD-R/-RW (Video mode), DVD+R/+RW, or to the HDD with the HDD Recording Format set to Video Mode On, or on the LPCM setting, use the Bilingual Recording setting (page 155) to select the A/L or B/R audio channel to record before recording starts. In other cases, both channels of a bilingual broadcast will be recorded and you can switch on playback.

Cleaning the pickup lens

The HDD/DVD recorders lens should not become dirty in normal use, but if for some reason it should malfunction due to dust or dirt, consult your nearest Pioneerauthorized service center. Although lens cleaners are commercially available, we do not recommend using them since some may damage the lens.

Storing discs

Although CDs and DVD discs are more durable than vinyl records, you should still take care to handle and store discs correctly. When youre 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). Dont glue paper or put stickers onto the disc, or use a pencil, ball-point pen or other sharp-tipped writing instrument. These could all damage the disc.
Cleaning the recorders exterior
When cleaning the glossy surface of the cabinet, gently wipe it with the provided cleaning cloth. If you use a dusty or hard cloth or if you rub the cabinet hard, the surface of the product will be scratched. If you clean the surface of the cabinet with a wet cloth, water droplets on the surface may enter into the product, resulting in malfunction.
For more detailed care information see the instructions that come with discs. Do not load more than one disc into the recorder.

Condensation

Condensation may form inside the recorder if it is brought into a warm room from outside, or if the temperature of the room rises quickly. Although the condensation wont damage the recorder, it may temporarily impair its performance. For this reason you should leave it to adjust to the warmer temperature for about an hour before switching on and using.

We want you to enjoy using this recorder for years to come, so please bear in mind the following points when choosing a suitable location for it:

Moving the recorder

If you need to move the recorder, first remove the disc, if loaded, and close the disc tray. Next, press STANDBY/ ON to switch the power to standby, checking that the POWER OFF indication in the display goes off. Wait at least two minutes. Lastly, disconnect the power cord. Never lift or move the recorder during playback or recording discs rotate at a high speed and may be damaged.
Use in a place exposed to high temperatures or humidity, including near radiators and other heatgenerating appliances. Place on a window sill or other place where the recorder will be exposed to direct sunlight. Use in a dusty or damp environment or in a room where it will be exposed to excessive cigarette smoke. Place directly on top of an amplifier, or other component in your stereo system that becomes hot in use. Use near a television or monitor as you may experience interference especially if the television uses an indoor antenna. Use in a kitchen or other room where the recorder may be exposed to smoke or steam. Use on a thick rug or carpet, or cover with cloth this may prevent proper cooling of the unit. Place on an unstable surface, or one that is not large enough to support all four of the units feet.
