System Setup
Output Resolution: This setting may be used to change the video output resolution. It affects the Component Video Outputs and the HDMI Output, but with different allowed settings depending upon whether the HDMI Output is in use. This setting may also be changed by pressing the Video Mode Button on the remote repeatedly to cycle through the available settings options.
•HDMI Output In Use: With the HDMI Output connected to another device, this setting defaults to Auto, but you may change it to 576p, 720p, 1080i or 1080p. We recommend leaving the setting at Auto, in which the DMC 1000 sets the video output based on the capabilities of the device it is connected to. If you attempt to select a video output resolution that your video display is not capable of han- dling, such as 1080p for a display that is only
•HDMI Output Not In Use: When no device is connected to the HDMI Output, this setting only applies to the Component Video Outputs. Only two values are available: 576i (the default) and 576p. Select 576p only if your video display’s component video inputs are capable of handling a progressive scan signal. If it isn’t, you will see no picture or a distorted picture when this setting is changed to 576p. In that case, press the Video Mode Button on the remote to correct it.
Picture Mode: Select from the Normal, Vivid, Sport and Nature picture settings to optimize viewing of various types of programs. This setting is a matter of taste, and there is no incorrect set- ting.
Video Noise Reduction: We recommend that you leave this setting at the default “Off”. If video signal noise is observed when using theanalog video outputs, turn this setting on to reduce the noise and improve the picture quality.
