•When an HDMI component is connected, the setting is automatically fixed to Down Sample Off. However, 96kHz sources will still be downsampled to 48kHz.

MPEG Out

• Default setting: MPEG > PCM

You only need to make this setting if you connected this player to an AV receiver (or other component) using one of the digital outputs.

If your AV receiver (or other connected component) is compatible with MPEG audio, set this to MPEG, otherwise set it to MPEG > PCM (MPEG audio is converted to more compatible PCM audio). Check the manual that came with the other component if you’re unsure whether it is MPEG audio compatible.

(4:3) format, the settings on your TV will determine how the material is presented— see the manual that came with your TV for details on what options are available.

When set to 16:9(Compressed), progressive- scan 4:3 material is shown with black bars on either side of the screen.

If you have a conventional TV, select either 4:3 (Letter Box) or 4:3 (Pan&Scan). In Letter Box mode, widescreen software is shown with black bars at the top and bottom of the screen. Pan & Scan chops the sides off widescreen material to make it fit the 4:3 screen (so even though the image looks larger on the screen, you’re actually seeing less of the picture). See also Screen sizes and disc formats on page 81.

•You can’t change the video output setting when an HDMI component is connected.
