Note
• Depending on your display, some of the settings may result in
the picture disappearing. In this case, press OUTPUT FORMAT
repeatedly until the picture re-appears.
• 1080/60p and 1080/24p output is only compatible with HDMI
displays. They are not compatible with the component video
output.
• When Output Format is set to 720p, 1080i or 1080p, video is
output in 16:9 format even if TV Aspect Ratio is set to 4:3
(Standard). See TV Aspect Ratio on page 41.
• If the contours of the displayed subjects look jagged or blurred,
try setting the Output Format to 480i. (If you connected this
player to your TV with the HDMI connection and the picture
disappears when you switch the Output Format to 480i, use the
component connection with the 480i Output Format or S-Video,
the standard composite connection instead.)
• Note that when using a Component Video connection with a TV
or other AV component (not using HDMI), 480/60i video may be
output in 480/60p.
24p output
For smooth presentation of 1080/24p or 720/24p video with an
HDMI-equipped display compatible with 1080/24p input, set 24p
