Sometimes the author of the disc creates hidden  
content that can only be accessed by entering a  
password. If the lock icon appears on the TV screen,  
enter the password (sometimes you’ll find it on the  
disc’s jacket cover or on a web site). This password  
control isn’t dictated by your DVD Player — it is a  
function of the disc.  
A typical DVD Audio disc contains up to seven times  
the data capacity of a CD. This additional space is  
used for music, either Advanced Resolution multi-  
channel sound quality that is closer to the artist’s  
master recording or for longer recordings. Many DVD  
Audio discs contain on-screen text, such as artist  
biographies, playlists, or lyrics. Some DVD Audio  
discs contain photo galleries or video clips.  
Since the authoring of DVD Audio Discs varies, some  
of the on-screen display choices might not be  
available for the disc you’re playing.  
Note:  
To enjoy maximum sound quality and surround effect  
of DVD Audio, you must use 5.1 channel analog audio  
output (5.1CH AUDIO OUT jacks on the DVD Player).  
If you use the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL or COAXIAL)  
for your audio connection, the sound will only be  
similar to CD-quality sound even though you’re  
playing a DVD Audio disc.
