BD Wise (Samsung Products only)
BD Wise is Samsung’s latest inter-connectivity feature.
When you connect a Samsung product and a Samsung TV with BD Wise to each other via HDMI, and BD Wise is on in both the product and TV, the product outputs video at the video resolution and frame rate of the BD/DVD disc.
•Off : The output resolution stays fixed at the resolution you set previously in the Resolution menu, regardless of the resolution of the disc. See Resolution below.
•On : The product outputs video at the original resolution and frame rate of the BD/DVD disc.
✎NOTE
When BD Wise is on, the Resolution setting automatically defaults to BD Wise and BD Wise appears in the Resolution menu.
If the product is connected to a device that does not support BD Wise, you can not use the BD Wise function.
For proper operation of BD Wise, set the BD Wise menu of both the product and the TV to On.
Resolution
Lets you set the output resolution of the Component and HDMI video signal to Auto, 1080p, 1080i, 720p, 576p/480p, or 576i/480i. The number indicates the number of lines of video per frame. The i and p indicate interlaced and progressive scan, respectively. The more lines, the higher the quality.
