DVD Region Codes

DVD-Video discs are encoded with region

codes which also appear on the packag-

ing:

ALL

A disc can only be played if its region code

matches the code printed on the back-panel

of the RDV-1092.

The RDV-1092 can play discs encoded in

either the NTSC or PAL video formats, out-

putting the correct video signal as set by the

back-panel NTSC/PAL switch.

Disc Structure

Each type of disc has its own organization,

allowing you to locate various portions of the

program recorded on the disc. Depending on

the type of disc, these may be called Titles,

Groups, Chapters, or Tracks:

DVD-Video:

Chapter 1

Chapter 2

Chapter 1

Chapter 2

Title 1

Title 2

A DVD-Video disc is comprised of Titles and

each Title may be divided into Chapters. For

example, a DVD-Video disc may contain sev-

eral movies, each with its own Title number,

and each movie may be divided into several

Chapters. In a DVD-Video karaoke disc, each

song usually has its own Title number and

does not have Chapters.

DVD-Audio:

Track 1 Track 2 Track 3 Track 1 Track 2

Group 1

Group 2

A DVD-Audio disc contains Groups, with

each group divided into Tracks. Some DVD-

Audio discs also contain a Bonus Group that

can only be played back by entering a Key

Number password.

Most DVD-Audio discs include other informa-

tion in addition to audio, such as still pictures,

movies and text.

Audio CD:

Track 1 Track 2 Track 3

An Audio CD disc only contains Tracks.

Digital Audio Formats

DVD and CD discs can be encoded with

several different digital audio formats. Gen-

erally, the type of digital audio encoding is

indicated on the disc packaging.

• Dolby Digital. A digital surround format

that may contain as many as ﬁve discrete

audio channels plus an LFE (low frequency

effects) channel (referred to as 5.1 chan-

nel surround). Particularly for older sound

tracks, Dolby Digital may be used for a

2.0 channel stereo sound track with Dolby

Surround matrix encoding.

• DTS (Digital Theater Systems). An-

other 5.1 channel digital surround format

similar to Dolby Digital, but somewhat dif-

ferent encoding characteristics. Also plays

DTS 96/24 used on DTS music discs.

• MPEG. Another compressed digital for-

mat.

• DVD-Audio. A high quality digital format

for DVD-Audio with the compression ratio

of about 2:1 supporting up to 192kHz

sampling rate and 24-bit resolution, al-

lowing the PCM signal to be recreated

without loss. Some content may only be

available at the analog outputs.

• LPCM (Linear PCM). Uncompressed

digital audio, the format used on CDs

and most studio masters.

• MP3 (MPEG 1, Layer 3). Compressed

2-channel digital audio, a format often

used for music on recordable CD-R and

CD-RW discs.

Basic Features

This section of the manual covers the basic

commands and features need to play a disc

in the RDV-1092. Additional features are

described in later sections.

ON/OFF Functions

The RDV-1092 has a master POWER switch

on the front panel. When this button is in the

out position, the unit is off and cannot be

turned on from the remote. When the front

panel POWER button is pressed in, the unit

becomes fully activated. With the master

POWER button in the ON position, the unit

can be activated or put in a standby mode

from the remote.

NOTE: In normal use, the front panel POWER

button should be left in the IN position.

The remote control has discrete ON and OFF

buttons. Press the ON button to activate the

unit. Press the OFF button to put the unit into

standby mode. The LED above the front panel

POWER button lights whenever the POWER

button is in the on position. The front panel

display is lit when the unit is activated and

goes out when the unit is in standby mode.

Pressing the OPN/CLOSE or PLAY but-

ton will also activate the unit from standby

mode.

NOTE: The unit can also be activated and put

in standby mode based on a control signal

(from other Rotel components) at the back

panel 12V TRIGGER input.

NOTE: To completely power off the RDV-1092

when away from home for a long period

of time, unplug the unit from the AC wall

outlet.

There is an auto standby function that can

automatically turn the unit off after 60, 90,

or 120 minutes. See the System Setup item

in the Setup Menu section for selecting the

time option or disabling this feature.

Changing Display

Brightness

There are seven stages of brightness for the

front panel display plus an OFF option. Press

the DIM button on the remote repeatedly to

step through the options. The 0 setting is the

brightest. The 6 setting is the dimmest. OFF

turns off the display. If the display is turned

off, press the DIM button once to restore the

display to the brightest setting.

NOTE: This button overrides the default bright-

ness set in the System Setup item of the Setup

menus. When the unit is turned off and then
