The Settings Menu Film Mode Movies are recorded on film at a rate of 24 pictures (frames) per second. Many of the movies on Blu-ray discs are recorded on the discs at this frame rate. However, not all TVs can display 24 progressive frames/second of video. If the TV cannot display this frame rate, you need to turn off Film Mode. Note Only your unit's HDMI output supports 1080p video output at any frame rate. The component outputs are limited to 1080i, regardless of the Film Mode setting. Deep Color This option allows you to turn off the Deep Color (color depth) setting for video signals output from the HDMI OUT jack. Connecting the player to a TV that supports Deep Color allows more accurate color reproduction than when connecting it to a TV that does not support Deep Color. It is recommended to set this option Off if the picture is unstable or colors appear unnatural. Audio Setting 1. In the main menu of Settings, press button, then use or button to select Audio. 2. Press button and press or button to select an option, then press OK button. 3. Press or buttons to select the desired option, and then press OK button to confirm your selection. 4. Press or EXIT button to go to the previous menu. PCM Downsampling If you chose to use an external Surround Sound Receiver to play audio via your HDMI connection, you can choose a downsampling rate to match the capabilities of your Receiver. Notes • The PCM Downsampling and Digital Output settings are only necessary if you don't plan to use your Blu-ray Home Theater for playback of audio, and instead plan to use an external Audio Receiver for playback of HDMI audio. • Incorrectly setting the digital audio output's PCM sampling rate too high may result in unpredictable audio playback. Digital Output: • PCM Stereo - Sets the HDMI audio format to PCM Stereo, this is useful if you have an audio receiver connected that is not a 5.1 channel receiver. • Bitstream Legacy - Sends a DTS or Dolby Digital bitstream from the disc over the HDMI connections. Blu-ray audio is limited to the soundtrack for the main movie (no PIP audio). • Bitstream Mixed - Sends a mixed (PIP audio and movie audio) DTS audio stream over the HDMI connections. This mode is primarily intended for use when you want to hear both PIP audio and the movie audio over an external Audio Receiver. • PCM 5.1 - Sends a PCM audio signal of up to 5.1 channels over the HDMI connection. Dynamic Range Control: Dynamic Range Control allows you to make the loud parts of a movie's audio track quieter than they would be in the theatre, without making the dialog of the actors any quieter. This would be useful, for instance, when you want to watch a movie in the evening when others might be sleeping. Note: This setup menu item has no effect unless: • You have selected "Bitstream Mixed" in the Bluray disc player's audio setup menu. When Dynamic Range Control is set to Off, movie soundtracks are played with the standard dynamic range. When movie soundtracks are played at low volume or from smaller speakers, you can set Dynamic Range Control to On. Your player applies appropriate compression to make low-level content more intelligible and prevent dramatic passages from getting too loud. Selecting the "Auto" option turns on the Dynamic Range Control for all BD movie soundtracks except Dolby TruHD. - 21 -
