English Setup Menus

Progressive Scan Setup

The two items below refer to the UNIDISK SC’s component outputs (i.e. the TV SCART output on the SCART version, the YPrPb outputs on the Phono version), whether they are outputting an interlaced or progressive signal.

Dither

Default setting: Off

On display devices with limited colour depth (e.g. LCD panels) bands of colour shade may be seen, rather than smooth transitions in colour shade.

Setting to On, reduces such colour banding.

Video Detection

Default setting: Auto

The setting for this option is dependent on the method that was used to record the original video source material.

If the source material was recorded on film (e.g. most movies), set to Progressive.

If the source material was recorded on video tape (e.g. most television programmes), set to Interlaced.

If you want the UNIDISK SC to determine the setting based on the information contained on the disc being played, set to Auto.

Note:

You may sometimes find that when set to Auto the screen image flickers. In this case choose whichever of the other two settings provides the better picture.

HDMI Setup

Note – this menu will only take effect when HDMI has been selected as the Primary Display Device in the General Setup Menu (see page 9).

HDMI Audio

Default setting: On

If you are using the display device’s inbuilt loudspeakers for audio playback, set to On.

This setting will output a stereo digital signal (SPDIF) to the display device via the HDMI connector. If the source material is multi-channel, a stereo down-mix will be provided at the HDMI and SPDIF outputs.

IMPORTANT – when set to On, the UNIDISK SC’s digital audio outputs (SPDIF, TOSLINK and HDMI itself) will provide stereo only – i.e. digital surround sound will be unavailable on these outputs. Analogue outputs are unaffected.

If you are using the UNIDISK SC’s digital outputs to provide surround sound to other devices, set to Off.

Colour Format

Default setting: RGB

Select the option that best suits your display device – i.e. the one that provides the best picture quality. Different display devices process the colour format signal in different ways so what is best for one device may not be best for another. Either consult your display device’s user manual or alternatively try each of the available options and select the best one. Note – some options may not be available, depending on the data that is retrieved from the display device’s EDID (see below).
