Precautions
—Continued
5. Never Touch this Unit
with Wet Hands
Never handle this unit or its power cord while your
hands are wet or damp. If water or any other liquid gets
inside this unit, have it checked by your Onkyo dealer.
6. Installing this Unit
Install this unit in a well-ventilated location.
Ensure that there’s adequate ventilation all around
this unit, especially if it’s installed in an audio rack. If
the ventilation is inadequate, the unit may overheat,
leading to malfunction.
Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or heat
sources, because its internal temperature may rise,
shortening the life of the optical pickup.
•Avoid damp and dusty places, and places subject to
vibrations from loudspeakers. Never put the unit on
top of, or directly above a loudspeaker.
Install this unit horizontally. Never use it on its side or
on a sloping surface, because it may cause a malfunc-
tion.
If you install this unit near a TV, radio, or VCR, the
picture and sound quality may be affected. If this
occurs, move this unit away from the TV, radio, or
VCR.
7. Care
Occasionally, you should dust this unit all over with a
soft cloth. For stubborn stains, use a soft cloth damp-
ened with a weak solution of mild detergent and water.
Dry the unit immediately afterwards with a clean cloth.
Do not use abrasive cloths, thinners, alcohol, or other
chemical solvents, because they may damage the finish
or remove the panel lettering.
8. Handling Notes
If you need to transport this unit, use the original pack-
aging to pack it how it was when you originally bought
it.
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect sprays, near
this unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic items on this
unit for a long time, because they may leave marks on
the case.
This unit’s top and rear panels may get warm after pro-
longed use. This is normal.
When you’ve finished using this unit, remove all discs
and turn off the power.
If you do not use this unit for a long time, it may not
work properly the next time you turn it on, so be sure
to use it occasionally.
9. To Obtain a Clear Picture
This unit is a high-tech, precision device. If the lens on
the optical pickup, or the disc drive mechanism
becomes dirty or worn, the picture quality may be
affected. To maintain the best picture quality, we recom-
mend regular inspection and maintenance (cleaning or
worn part replacement) every 1,000 hours of use
depending on the operating environment. Contact your
Onkyo dealer for details.
10. Moisture Condensation
Moisture condensation may damage this unit.
Read the following carefully:
When you take a glass containing a cold drink outside
on a summer’s day, drops of water, called condensation,
form on the outside of the glass. Similarly, moisture
may condense on the lens of the optical pickup, one of
the most important parts inside this unit.
Moisture condensation can occur in the following sit-
uations:
The unit is moved from a cold place to a warm
place.
—A heater is turned on, or cold air from an air con-
ditioner is hitting the unit.
In the summer, when this unit is moved from an
air conditioned room to a hot and humid place.
— The unit is used in a humid place.
Do not use this unit when there’s the possibility of
moisture condensation occurring. Doing so may dam-
age your discs and certain parts inside this unit.
If condensation does occur, remove all discs and
leave this unit turned on for two to three hours. By
this time, the unit will have warmed up and any con-
densation will have evaporated. To reduce the risk of
condensation, keep this unit connected to a wall out-
let.

Connecting the DV-SP502/DV-SP502E
—Continued
Connect the DV-SP502/DV-SP502E to the TV
directly. If you connect the DV-SP502/DV-SP502E to
a VCR, TV/VCR combination, or video selector, the
playback picture may be distorted as DVD videos are
copy protected.
Using S Video
If your TV (or other equipment) has an S Video input,
you can use this instead of the standard (composite) out-
put for a better quality picture.
Use an S Video cable (supplied) to connect the S
VIDEO OUTPUT to an S Video input on your TV (or
monitor or AV receiver).
Line up the small triangle above the jack with the same
mark on the plug before plugging in.
Using Component Video
You can use the component video output instead of the
standard video out jack to connect this player to your TV
(or other equipment).
This should give you the best quality picture from the
three types of video output available.
Use a component video cable (not supplied) to con-
nect the COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT jacks to a
component video input on your TV, monitor or AV
receiver.
Note:
•Watching progressive scan video from the component
video outputs
This player can output progressive scan video from the
component video output. Compared to interlace video,
progressive scan video effectively doubles the scan-
ning rate of the picture, resulting in a very stable,
flicker-free image. To set up the player for use with a
progressive scan TV, see Video Output settings on
page 46. When the player is set to output progressive
scan video, the PROGRESSIVE indicator lights in the
front panel display.
Important:
If you connect a TV that is not compatible with a pro-
gressive scan signal and switch the player to progres-
sive, you will not be able to see any picture at all. In
this case, switch everything off and reconnect using
the supplied video cable, then switch back to Interlace
(see page 21).
Using SCART (European model only)
If your TV has a SCART-type AV input, you can use a
SCART cable to connect this player to your TV. This
type of connection carries both the sound and the picture,
so there’s no need to connect up the AUDIO OUTPUT
L/R and VIDEO OUTPUT jacks.
Use a SCART cable (supplied) to connect the AV
CONNECTOR to an AV input on your TV.
This connector can output composite video, S Video, or
RGB video. The default setting is composite, which
should work with all TVs. Consult the manual that came
with your TV to see if you can use one of the higher qual-
ity settings. See page 46 for how to change the video out-
put.

Compatibility of this player with
progressive-scan and high-definition TVs
This player is compatible with progressive video Macro
Vision System Copy Guard.
Consumers should note that not all high-definition tele-
vision sets are fully compatible with this product and
may cause artifacts to be displayed in the picture. In case
of 525 progressive scan picture problems, it is recom-
mended that the user switch the connection to the “stan-
dard definition” output (Interlace). If there are questions
regarding our TV set compatibility with this model,
please contact our customer service center.

Connecting the Multichannel Analog
Outputs
If your AV receiver has 5.1 channel analog inputs, we
recommend connecting this player to it using the multi-
channel analog outputs. Doing this will ensure that you
can enjoy all kinds of disc, including Dolby Digital and
DTS DVD-Video discs, as well as high sampling rate
and multichannel DVD-Audio and SACD discs.
1. Connect the FRONT/D.MIX, SURR, CENTER,
SUBWOOFER outputs on this player to the
multi-channel audio inputs on your AV receiver.
It’s convenient to use three stereo audio cables; one
for the FRONT/D.MIX 1 or 2, one for the SURR and
one for the CENTER and SUBWOOFER channels.
You can use the SCART AV connector, or the S
video or component video jacks to connect to the AV
receiver if you prefer.
Tip:
After connecting up and switching on, you should
change the Audio Output Mode setting in the Initial
Setup menu from the default 2 Channel to 5.1 Chan-
nel. See also Audio Output Mode on page 48, 52.
The remote controller supplied with Onkyo AV
receiver or amplifiers can be used to control the DV-
SP502/DV-SP502E.
The function of the upper and lower connectors are
the same. Connect to either one.
Connecting an cable only does not make the sys-
tem operational. You must also connect the audio
cables as well.
•For remote control operation, you must make an ana-
log RCA connection between your DV-SP502/DV-
SP502E and the other AV component, even if they are
connected digitally.

Notes:
Many of the functions covered in this chapter apply to
DVD and SACD discs, Video CDs, CDs and WMA/
MP3 JPEG discs, although the exact operation of
some varies slightly with the kind of disc loaded.
Some DVDs restrict the use of some functions (ran-
dom or repeat, for example) in some or all parts of the
disc. This is not a malfunction.
When playing Video CD, some of the functions are not
available during PBC playback. If you want to use
them, start the disc playing using a number button to
select a track.
You can fast-scan discs forward or backward at four dif-
ferent speeds.
Playing in slow motion You can play DVD-Videos and
DVD-R/RW at four different slow motion speeds, for-
wards and backwards. Video CD/Super VCDs can be
played at four different forward slow motion speeds.
Note:
Backward slow-motion playback does not work with
Video CD.

DivX® video playback on the DV-SP502/DV-SP502E (not North American
model)
—Continued
In order to play DivX VOD (video on demand) content
on this player, you first need to register the player with
your DivX VOD content provider. You do this by gener-
ating a DivX VOD registration code, which you submit
to your provider.
Important:
•DivX VOD content is protected by a DRM (Digital
Rights Management) system. This restricts playback
of content to specific, registered devices.
If you load a disc that contains DivX VOD content not
authorized for your player, the message Authorization
Error is displayed and the content will not play.
Resetting the player (as described in Resetting the
player in the main Operating Instructions) will not
cause you to lose your registration code.
Displaying your DivX VOD registration
code
Some DivX VOD content may only be playable a fixed
number of times. When you load a disc containing this
type of DivX VOD content, the remaining number of
plays is shown on-screen and you then have the option of
playing the disc (thereby using up one of the remaining
plays), or stopping. If you load a disc that contains
expired DivX VOD content (for example, content that
has zero remaining plays), the message Rental Expired is
displayed.
If your DivX VOD content allows an unlimited number
of plays, then you may load the disc into your player and
play the content as often as you like, and no message will
be displayed.

Audio Settings and Video Adjust menus
The Audio Settings menu offers features for adjusting
the way discs sound.
Settings: High, Medium, Low, Off (default)
When watching Dolby Digital DVDs at low volume, it’s
easy to lose the quieter sounds completely—including
some of the dialog. Switching Audio DRC (Dynamic
Range Control) to on can help by bringing up the quieter
sounds, while controlling loud peaks.
How much of a difference you hear depends on the mate-
rial you’re listening to. If the material doesn’t have wide
variations in volume, you may not notice much change.
Notes:
Audio DRC is only effective with Dolby Digital audio
sources.
Audio DRC is only effective through the digital output
when Digital Out is set to On, and Dolby Digital Out
is set to Dolby Digital > PCM (see “Digital Audio Out
settings” on page 46).
The effect of Audio DRC depends on your speakers
and AV receiver settings.

Default setting: STEREO
If you’ve selected DTS > PCM in DTS Out on page 46
or 2 Channel in Audio Output Mode below section, you
can choose the way the signal is downmixed to PCM
audio. Stereo will downmix the DTS signal to 2-channel
stereo, whereas Lt/Rt will downmix to a 2-channel signal
compatible with Dolby surround matrix decoders. (This
allows you to hear surround sound if your AV receiver or
amplifier has Dolby Pro Logic capability.)
Default setting: 2 Channel
If you connected this player to your amplifier using the
5.1 channel analog outputs (front, surround, center and
subwoofer outs), set this to 5.1 Channel; if you con-
nected only the stereo outs, set to 2 Channel.
Notes:
•Even if you set Audio Output Mode to 5.1 Channel,
you’ll only get sound from all speakers when playing
a 5.1 channel multichannel disc.
When set to 5.1 Channel, only the front left/right
channels are output from the AUDIO OUT (2ch)
jacks. Change to 2 Channel if you want to listen to
downmixed stereo audio (for example, because you
are listening through the TV’s built-in speakers).
When set to 5.1 Channel there is no digital output
when playing DVD-Audio.
If you set to 2 Channel, Dolby Digital, DTS and
MPEG audio is mixed down to two channels so you
still hear all the audio recorded on the disc. With DTS
encoded audio, you can choose how the signal is
downmixed to PCM audio. See DTS Downmix above
to change the downmix setting.
Some DVD-Audio discs don’t allow downmixing of
audio. These discs always output multi-channel audio
regardless of the setting made here.
Default settings: L/R: Large, C: Large, LS/
RS: Large, SW: On
You only need to make this setting if you connected this
player to your amplifier using the 5.1 channel analog
outputs.
This setting does not affect digital audio output.
