About Minidiscs

Minidisc, or MD as its usually called, is an extremely flexible and convenient format on which you can both playback and record high-quality digital audio. Because its a disc, MD has many of the advantages of compact discyou can jump directly to any track on the disc, program the playing order, instantly skip over tracks you dont Minidisc markall want to play or back to tracks you MDs carry this logo want to play again, and so on. The really great thing about MD though is the flexibility it offers when recording. Things that were impossible using analog cassette tape, such as reordering tracks, programming track names, and deleting tracks without leaving any gaps are all easily achieved if youre using MD. Minidiscs have other advantages over cassette tape; the recorder automatically finds the next blank space to record on, and can tell you how much room there is left on a disc before you start recording. When you delete something from the disc, the time available for recording is automatically updated. If this is the first time youve used MD, please take a few minutes to read through this section of the manual. It gives information on how to handle the discs properly, the different kinds of disc available, and some basic MD characteristics.

Copying restrictions

You may run into problems making digital copies of some sources, even when the sampling rate is compatible. Some DVD discs disable the DVD players digital output to prevent illegal digital copying (you can still record via the analog outputs though). Another restriction on digital copying comes from something called SCMS, which stands for Serial Copy Management System. This stops you making multiple-generation digital recordings and is aimed at preventing illegal digital copying of copyright material. The number of generations that SCMS will let you make depends on the source.
Limitations de la reproduction
Vous rencontrerez peut-tre des problmes en effectuant des copies numriques partir de certaines sources, mme si la frquence dchantillonnage est compatible. Certains disques DVD dsactivent la sortie numrique du lecteur DVD pour empcher la copie numrique illgale (vous pouvez tout de mme effectuer lenregistrement partir des sorties analogiques). Lautre restriction provient du SCMS, qui signifie Serial Copy Management System. Le SCMS vous empche deffectuer des enregistrements numriques reproductions multiples, et il a pour objectif de mettre fin la reproduction numrique illgale du matriel protg par le copyright. Le nombre de reproductions que le SCMS vous autorise effectuer dpend de la source.
Digital audio from CD, MD, DVD or DAT can be copied digitally for one generation only. Son numrique partir dun CD, MD, DVD ou DAT peut tre copi de faon numrique pour une seule reproduction

About the Table of Contents
When you load any kind of minidisc into the recorder, the first thing it does is read a section of the disc called the Table of Contents, or TOC. Just as the contents page of a book tells the reader what each chapter is about and where to find it in the book, the TOC tells the recorder where the tracks are on the disc, the name and length of each track, the name of the disc, and so on. In the couple of seconds it takes to read all this, the recorders display shows the message MD TOC READ. Since you can change whats on a recordable MD, the Table of Contents is rewritable, and so is called the User Table of Contents, or UTOC for short. If you have a recordable disc loaded in the recorder and hit eject, the recorder automatically updates the

About MD System Limitations
The sophisticated playback, editing and recording features available to you with MD are possible because of the way in which the sound data is stored on the disc together with the system of TOCs and UTOCs described above. There are times however when you might encounter odd side-effects of the way the system works. These are not malfunctions, but limitations of the system. Below is a list of symptoms you may run across depending on the way you record or edit discs. Symptom The recorder shows the message TOC FULL even though there are fewer than 255 tracks on the disc (the maximum possible). MD System Limitation Although when you listen to a disc it appears that each track sits end to end in an unbroken sequence, the actual audio information may be scattered all over the disc in different places. The more times you record and edit things on a disc, the more scattered the information becomes. Usually, this doesnt affect the user; the recorder keeps track of everything using the UTOC. However, because the recorder needs to know where every little gap is on the disc (and counts each one as a track, although you dont see it), the UTOC eventually fills up, and the recorder wont let you record anything else on that disc. Erasing a complete track, or the entire disc cures the problem. If a disc is scratched or damaged in some way, that part of the disc becomes automatically unavailable for recording. In this case, the recorder shows the reduced recording time available. If you erase a track which is less than 12 seconds long, the recorder cant add that time to the available recording time. Recording time on a disc is divided into two second blocksthe smallest unit of a minidisc. Although a piece of audio data may be shorter than this, it still takes up two seconds on the disc, and the remainder is lost (until the whole block is erased). As the number of these partially used blocks builds up, you might notice that the total disc length appears to shorten. (See also the note about damaged discs above.) There are two situations where you cant use the combine edit feature: y When one of the tracks was recorded using the digital input, and the other using the analog input. y When one track was recorded in long-play mono mode, and the other in normal stereo mode. As we mentioned above, the more re-recording and editing you do on a disc, the more scattered the audio information on the disc becomes. During fast forward or reverse this may show up as interrupted sound.

Numbering Tracks

If you're recording from CD or MD via the digital input, track numbers are always automatically copied along with the audio. When recording other digital or analog sources, Auto Mark (track numbering) works by detecting spaces (silence) in the source material. Although this usually works fine and is often convenient, there may be times when you'd rather have complete control over where the track numbers go as you record. Once recording is underway (with Auto Mark on or off), you can start a new track number anytime by pressing the MD REC button.
Si vous enregistrez un CD ou un MD par lentre numrique, les numros de plages seront automatiquement copis tels quels sur le MD. Lors de lenregistrement dune autre source numrique ou analogique, linscription automatique (numrotation des plages) fonctionne en dtectant les espaces vierges (silences) dans la source. Bien que cette fonction soit pratique et agisse sans problme dans la plupart des cas, il est parfois prfrable de dterminer o dinscrire soi-mme les numros de plages. En cours denregistrement (avec ou sans inscription automatique des numros), vous pouvez marquer une nouvelle plage en appuyant sur la touche MD REC.
1 Press MENU and select AUTO MARK.
This menu option is only available when the disc is stopped. Remember: switch between menu options using the $ and buttons; select the option by pressing SET. By default, auto mark is on (the flag indicator is showing in the display)

Naming a Disc

You can name a recordable MD so that when you load the disc into the recorder, the disc's name appears in the display. The name can be up to 100 characters long, including spaces. You can change disc names on recordable MDs (if you've recorded something else on the disc, for example), but you can't change the name of a playback-only disc. MENU SET

Titrage dun disque

Vous pouvez titrer (donner un nom ) un MD pour que le nom du disque apparaisse sur lafficheur lorsque vous insrez le MD dans lenregistreur. Le nom peut contenir 100 caractres, espaces compris. Vous pouvez changer les noms des MD enregistrables (si vous avez enregistr quelque chose dautre par exemple sur ce disque), mais vous ne pouvez pas changer le nom dun disque conu pour la lecture seulement.
The MD system allows for very flexible editing of discs. Using the editing features described on the following pages you can easily: create names for discs and for individual tracks; combine two tracks into one long one, or divide a track into two short ones; move single tracks, or reorder a whole disc; erase tracks or erase the whole disc. Not all of these functions are available in any mode: the table below shows what editing functions you have access to in each MD mode.
Le systme MD permet un montage flexible de disques. En utilisant les fonctions de montage dcrites aux pages suivantes, vous pourrez facilement : attribuer des noms aux disques et aux plages, combiner deux plages en une seule plus longue, diviser une plage en deux plages plus courtes, dplacer des plages uniques ou rarranger toutes les plages dun disque, effacer des plages ou effacer toutes les plages dun disque. Toutes ces fonctions ne sont pas disponibles dans chaque mode : le tableau suivant montre quelles fonctions de montage sont disponibles dans chaque mode MD.

Cinema you can Live in
The latest in multimedia digital technology, DVD, guarantees second-to-none picture quality and sound. The digital picture is twice as sharp as standard VHS videotape. Home cinema ready, DVD enables surround sound as impressive as in the cinema, right in your home. The media itself is more durable than VHS tape and doesnt need to be rewound. Plus DVD is packed with useful features multiple language and soundtracks and subtitles, support for various audio encoding technologies such as DTS and Dolby Digital, multiple camera angle viewing selection, parental blocking, return-to-pause and view-per-chapter and support for both virtual or digital surround sound. With all of this, DVD is clearly the future.
A new arrival on the multi-channel, multimedia audio format scene, DTS 5.1 channel playback encoding technology is rapidly gaining popularity thanks to its dynamic sound impact that flies at the listener from left, right and centre surround sound speakers. Open up the doors of digital home cinema and super surround sound with any Pioneer DVD player and A/V amplifier/receiver* because they can handle DTS encoded discs.

*Except VSX-409RDS

The current surround sound quality encoding standard, Dolby Digital means movie theatre sound performance for your home cinema. Its 5.1 channel audio sound compression technology wraps you in sound. The front left and right, centre, rear left and right speakers span frequencies from 20Hz 20kHz and there is a dedicated low frequency channel for extra sound clarity. Extra features mean not only stunning soundtracks but also additional language tracks on one disc. And Dolby Digital has gone a step further with THX Surround EX, a co-development between Dolby Digital and THX, which adds another audio channel to the soundtrack behind the listener, meaning more depth and localisation for even more sound perfection.

DVD players carry a regional code number corresponding to one of six global regions. For example as shown here, region 2 covers most of Europe, the Middle East, South Africa and Japan and region 5 covers most of Africa, the CIS and India. Additionally, most DVD discs carry the respective codes for particular regions where viewing is allowed. If the player code and the disc do not match, the disc will not be able to be played. This accounts for differences in regional culture and parental guidance. Region code-free DVD discs are also available for playing in any region.

Turn it Up! Digital Home Cinema Sound
Technology is taking off and the home cinema audience is most certainly listening. Thanks to Lucasfilms THX division, DVD home cinema audiences can enjoy similar high-tech sound effects found in movie theatres. The THX label guarantees that the system can handle 5.1 channels for quality wrap-around surround sound performance. Going a step further, THX joined forces with Dolby Laboratories to develop the THX Surround EX system. This innovation adds an extra Surround Back channel to the soundtrack, meaning that one additional sound path is decoded and actually flies right over the listener. Sound surrounding you plus sound flying right over your head. Now, thats realistic.

DTS-ES

Early this year, DTS introduced a new cinema decoder: DTS-ES. Using low data compression and a high data transfer rate, DTS-ES adds an additional sound channel to digitised films, allowing filmmakers to be even more creative with sound. This translates to better special effects that truly surround the audience like never before. The third channel flies over the head of the viewers, putting them right in the middle of the action. Used now only in cinemas, this exciting technology will most certainly be implemented in future DVD home cinema products.

Amplifiers

& Receivers
Amplifiers and receivers are key to any home cinema system. This is where it happens, where the cinema sound experience is decoded and transferred to the speakers in your living room. Pioneer has hi-tech amplifiers and receivers featuring Dolby Digital and DTS decoders or even supporting THX Surround EX. With sound this good, you definitely begin to feel like you're inside the movie.
