Output Resolution:

Input from S-Video, Component, and HDMI is scaled to this resolution for Component and HDMI output. If interlaced to progressive scan conversion is in effect, it is uncompromisingly pixel-adaptive even with 1080i, and the same robust film mode detection applies as with any other input. Resolution is expressed as follows:

number of pixels across the screen refresh rate in Hertz

1920x1080p/60

number of scan lines from top to bottom

scan type: p=progressive, i=interlaced

From the list below, use the output resolution that gives the best picture quality on your display. Note that HD displays often require either 1280x720p or 1920x1080i regardless of their native resolution.

Color Space:

Set this to match your display type: HDTV (high definition TV), SDTV (standard definition), or Auto§.

Data Format:

Select YCbCr 4:2:2, YCbCr 4:4:4, RGB, Extended RGB, or Auto§ – whichever looks best. Note that when YCbCr is selected, the HDMI output uses YCbCr format and Component output uses YPbPr.

Use dark areas of a scene to determine whether YCbCr 4:2:2 vs 4:4:4, or standard vs extended RGB is the correct setting. If colors look totally wrong with all sources, try all settings before calling tech support. If colors look wrong only when certain sources are selected, see section 4.11.

§‘Auto’ setting: Works with most displays, but you may get a better result selecting the format manually.

Letterbox:

When the source material’s aspect ratio (the proportion of image width to height) does not match the display’s aspect ratio, and you want to preserve the original image’s proportions, the unused areas of the screen will be blank. You can select the shade of these areas, from ten levels between light gray and black. If you do not want letterbox (bars on top/bottom) or pillarbox (sidebars) on your screen, see section 4.11.

Synchronization:

Try ‘Inverted’ setting if the image via HDMI is either not centered on the screen or does not show at all.

Component 2 Out:

The second Component video output can be configured in one of the following three different ways, or ‘Off’:

•MAIN output, processed (same signal as Component 1).

•MAIN output, unprocessed. Use this if you have, for example, a front projector to watch movies connected to Component 1 or HDMI output, and a flat panel to watch the news connected to Component 2 output, and the flat panel cannot accept the format being sent to the projector. Note that On-Screen display is not available.

•ZONE2 output (i.e. when Source is selected in ZONE2), unprocessed.
