1. Picture Adjustment

This is used to adjust picture control parameters. The 650BD provides a wide array of picture controls. Please refer to the “Picture Adjustment” section of this manual for details of each control.

2. Primary Output

To select the primary video output method. The options are:

HDMI – Use HDMI as the primary video output. This setting will ensure that the HDMI output gets the best possible picture quality. Component and composite video output may not be available or may be limited to a lower resolution based on content source limitations.

Component – Use component video as the primary video output. This setting will ensure that the component output will always be available and displays proper video signals. With this configuration, the video decoder in the player performs any necessary format conversion.

Note: Copyright control mechanisms encoded on the disc may limit the output resolution of the component video output. For DVD, if CSS encryption is in use the output resolution is limited to no more than 480p/576p; for Blu-ray Discs, the output resolution is limited to no more than 1080i, and could be lower if the disc contains an Image Constraint Token.

3. TV Aspect Ratio

To set the aspect ratio of the player’s output image. The options are :

4:3 Letterbox – Choose this when the display is standard 4:3. A widescreen image is displayed in “letterbox” format with black borders on top and bottom.

4:3 Pan & Scan – Choose this when the display is standard 4:3. A widescreen image will be stretched.

16:9 Wide – Choose this when the display is widescreen 16:9. 16:9 materials will be displayed in its native aspect ratio, and 4:3 materials will be stretched horizontally.

16:9 Wide/Auto – Choose this when the display is widescreen 16:9. 16:9 materials will be displayed in its native aspect ratio, and 4:3 materials will be displayed with black borders on both sides in order to maintain the original 4:3 aspect ratio.

4. TV System

To choose the output video standard (PAL/NTSC) to match your TV. The options are:

PAL – When playing PAL-encoded discs, no system conversion is performed. NTSC-encoded contents are converted to PAL output. Blu-ray discs encoded with 24Hz frame rate are converted to 50Hz frame rate if neither 1080p24 Output nor Source Direct output resolution is enabled.

NTSC – When playing NTSC-encoded discs, no system conversion is performed. PAL encoded contents are converted to NTSC output. Blu-ray discs encoded with 24Hz frame rate are converted to 60Hz frame rate if neither 1080p24 Output nor Source Direct output resolution is enabled.

Multi-system– No system conversion is performed. The output video system is the same as that encoded on the disc. Blu-ray discs encoded with 24Hz frame rate are converted to 60Hz frame rate if neither 1080p24 Output nor Source Direct output resolution is enabled. This mode requires a TV that supports both NTSC and PAL systems.

Note: Do not select “Multi-system” if your TV does not support both PAL and NTSC systems. The TV display may become a black screen upon inserting a disc encoded in a different system than your TV supports. Should this happen, you can press the OPEN button to eject the disc tray, and then use the Setup Menu to correct the “TV System” setting.

5. Output Resolution

To choose the output resolution that best matches your television’s native resolution. For a detailed description on how to choose a proper output resolution, please refer to the “Select the Best Output Resolution” section of this manual.
