Configuring the DPC-7.7—Continued

View Mode

With this setting you can adjust the aspect of the picture so that it fits your TV screen. Due to your TV’s aspect ratio setting and the DVD’s aspect ratio, black bars may appear above and below the picture or at the sides and the aspect of the picture may be unsuitable. In this case, use this setting to adjust the aspect of the picture as you like.

Normal (default): The picture is displayed in its original aspect ratio.

View Mode 1: The picture is stretched horizontally to make it fit the height of the screen.

View Mode 2: The picture is stretched vertically to make it fit the width of the screen.

View Mode 3: The picture is stretched horizontally and vertically to make it fit the screen.

Tip:

The view mode can also be changed by using the remote controller’s [Aspect] button.

Note:

• This setting does not apply to DVD menus.

HDMI Output Setting

With this setting you can turn the HDMI video output on or off. See page 41 for more information.

Tip:

When the HDMI Output Setting is set to On, you can also change this setting by using the remote controller’s [Resolution] button (see page 41).

If Auto selected but the DPC-7.7 doesn’t support the TV’s native resolution, the resolution will be 480p/ 576p.

When the resolution is set to 720p or 1080i, no video is output by the analog video outputs.

HD JPEG mode

If your TV is connected to the HDMI OUT and the HDMI resolution is set to 720p or 1080i, this setting allows you to display your JPEG pictures in high defini- tion.

On: JPEG pictures displayed in high definition.

Off: JPEG pictures displayed as normal.

Notes:

If your TV is connected to a video output other than the HDMI OUT, or the HD Resolution set to some- thing other than 720p or 1080i, even if this setting is set to On, your JPEG pictures will not be displayed in high definition.

When using HD JPEG, it may take a while to display each picture. And the Zoom function cannot be used. Also, onscreen status messages such as “Play” and “Stop” are not displayed.
