OPERATION

USING THE T 557

COMPONENT VIDEO OUT connection

For the 1080p resolution setting with unprotected media, the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT resolution will change to 1080i.

When a protected media is loaded for playback, 720p, 1080i or 1080p resolution settings of COMPONENT VIDEO OUT will change to either 480i/576i or 480p/576p (depends upon the connectivity of a HDMI cable - plugged-in or unplugged).

BD or DVD could prevent up-scaling on analog output.

VIDEO OUT connection

The resolution of the VIDEO OUT jack is fixed to 480i/576i.

NOTES

Depending on your display, some of the resolution settings may result to abnormal picture or the picture disappearing altogether. When this happens, press [HOME] key and then toggle [RES] repeatedly until the picture reappears.

The T 557 supports simultaneous output of all video out jacks. The resolution of the HDMI output will not be the same as the resolution on the Component Video output.

For a list of applicable resolution settings with respect to video output port and type of media, please refer also to the “RESOLUTION SETTINGS” section of “REFERENCE TABLES” under the “REFERENCE” main heading.

1080p DISPLAY MODE

Movies shot with film camera consist of 24 frames per second. Since conventional televisions display frames either at 1/60 or 1/50 second intervals, the 24 frames do not appear at an even pace. The “24Hz” setting of the T 557’s “1080p Display Mode” option enables the faithful reproduction of such film-based materials, displaying each frame at 1/24 second intervals.

24Hz: Using an HDMI-equipped display compatible with 1080/24p input, set “1080p Display Mode” to “24Hz” for smooth presentation of film-based materials.

50/60Hz: If “24Hz” is selected and some picture disturbance is experienced when the video switches between video and film material, set “1080p Display Mode” to “50Hz” (European version model only) or “60Hz” (North America version model only) instead.

NOTE

If your TV is not compatible with 1080/24p, the actual frame frequency of the video output will be 50Hz (or 60Hz) even though the “1080p Display Mode” is set to “24Hz”.

HDMI Color Setting

Set the type of video output from HDMI OUT jack. Select the setting that matches your display device.

YCbCr: Select when connecting to an HDMI display device.

RGB: Select when connecting to a DVI device.

LANGUAGE SETUP MENU

DISPLAY MENU

Select a language for the SETUP menu and on-screen display.

DISC MENU/AUDIO/SUBTITLE

Select the language you prefer for the audio track (disc audio), subtitles and the disc menu. Depending on the media, only those Disc Audio, Disc Subtitle and Disc Menu languages recorded on the media are available. When a language is chosen, it will become the default setting unless the media overrides the settings.

Original: Refers to the original language in which the disc was recorded.

Other: Select“Other” if the desired language is not on the list. Use [ ] to highlight“Other”, press [ENTER] and then input the 4-digit language code using the number keys of the remote control. If you enter the wrong language code, complete entering the 4-digit numbers, press [ENTER] and then encode the correct 4-digit numbers. See“LANGUAGE CODE LIST” under the main heading “REFERENCE” for a list of applicable language codes.

Off: If you choose for the disc subtitle not to come up, select “Off”.
