settings menuse Settings menus allow you to congure all aspects
of your BDP300. e next few pages will go through
the menu items and explain their function. e Settings
menus may look daunting if you are new to setting up
home cinema, but the majority of them need only be
congured once when you rst install the system.
e only way to view the Settings menus is on your
display device (TV or projector) using the on-screen
display (OSD) capability of the BDP300. To view the
OSD for the initial setting up, connect any of the video
outputs to your display device (or AV receiver connected
to your display).
Entering the settings menu
e SETTINGS icon is shown on screen when the BDP300
is rst switched on.
If the main menu is not currently displayed, press u
on the remote control to display it. Note that during the
playback of music, video or JPEG les, further button
presses may be required to exit the folder structure.
With the SETTINGS icon highlighted, press O to enter
the Settings menu.
Unstable OSD menu or picture display?
e default BDP300 output video resolution when rst
powered up out of the box has been chosen according to
the national standard in the country of purchase.
If the output resolution and frame rate is at a setting
your display device does not support, the picture
may become unstable or may not display at all. If this
happens, connect the BDP300 directly to your display
using the composite video connection in order to see
the menus. Once the correct video settings have been
entered, a higher-quality connection can be used.
