This document describes the LG DVD Player, models DV456, DV415, and HTR456, providing comprehensive information on its functions, usage, and maintenance.
The LG DVD Player is designed to play various disc formats, including DVD-VIDEO, DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW, Video CDs (VCD/SVCD), Audio CDs, MP3 files, WMA files, DivX files, and CD-G Discs. It supports both standard and progressive scan video output, offering enhanced picture quality for compatible televisions. The player features multi-channel sound capabilities, allowing connection to amplifiers with 2-channel analog stereo, Dolby Pro Logic II/Pro Logic, 2-channel digital stereo (PCM), or multi-channel decoders (Dolby Digital™, MPEG 2, or DTS).
A key feature of the DV456 and HTR456 models is the USB Direct Recording function, which allows users to record audio tracks from an Audio CD directly to a USB Flash Drive. The player also supports playback of multimedia files (music, video, and photos) from USB-sticks, enabling versatile media consumption.
The device incorporates copyright protection technology developed by Macrovision, which may affect recording and playback of certain discs. It also features regional code restrictions, meaning it can only play DVD discs labeled with the same regional code as the unit or "ALL."
The player's front panel includes essential controls such as Power (ON/OFF), Disc Tray (for inserting discs), Open/Close button, Display window (showing current status), Remote sensor, and Play/Stop/Skip buttons. The DV456 model additionally includes a USB Port on the front for easy access.
The remote control provides a full range of functions, including Power, Open/Close, Clear (for removing tracks from the Program List), Program (for entering program edit mode), Numerical buttons (for selecting options), Scan (for searching backward or forward), Skip (for navigating chapters/tracks), Pause/Step (for pausing playback or frame-by-frame playback), Play, Stop, DVD Menu, Title (for accessing disc's title menu), Display (for On-Screen Display), Audio (for selecting audio language or channel, and for USB recording), Subtitle (for selecting subtitle language), Angle (for selecting DVD camera angle), Setup (for accessing/exiting setup menu), A-B (for repeating a section), Repeat (for repeating chapters, tracks, titles, or all), and Zoom (for enlarging video images). The remote control also allows volume control by pressing the Audio button for more than 3 seconds and then using the navigate buttons.
The On-Screen Display (OSD) provides various information about the disc in playback, such as title/track number, chapter number, elapsed playing time, selected audio language/channel, selected subtitle, and selected angle. Users can navigate and change settings directly through the OSD.
The player offers several playback modes:
The player includes a "Last Scene Memory" function that memorizes the last scene viewed from a disc, even after removing the disc or turning off the unit. A "Power Resume" feature stores the last memory position every 60 seconds during disc playback, allowing resumption after a power outage. A "Screen Saver" appears after five minutes of inactivity in Stop mode, and the unit automatically turns off if the screen saver is displayed for another five minutes.
Parental Control features allow users to block playback of rated DVDs based on their content, with options for setting a password and selecting a rating level. The DivX® VOD function provides a registration code for renting and purchasing videos from the DivX VOD service.
