HD Resolution

With this setting you can set the video resolution for the HDMI OUT. See page 46 for more information.

Auto (default): The resolution is automatically scaled to the preferred resolution of the TV con- nected to the HDMI OUT.

If Auto is selected but the DV-SP506 doesn’t support the resolution preferred by the TV, the resolution will be 480p/576p.

480i (480i/576i): The setting displayed depends on the country in which you purchased the DV-SP506.

480p (480p/576p): The setting displayed depends on the country in which you purchased the DV-SP506.

720p: 1280 ⋅ 720p 50/60 Hz

1080i: 1920 ⋅ 1080i 50/60 Hz

1080p: 1920 ⋅ 1080p 50/60 Hz

Tip:

•When the HDMI Output Setting is set to On, you can also change this setting by using the [RESOLUTION] button (see page 46).

Notes:

•While an SACD or DVD-Audio disc is loaded, this setting cannot be changed. Eject the disc first if you need to change this setting.

•If there’s no picture after changing this setting, press the [RESOLUTION] button repeatedly to restore the picture.

HD JPEG Mode

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

On: JPEG pictures displayed in high definition.

Off (default): JPEG pictures displayed as normal.

Notes:

•If your TV is connected to a video output other than the HDMI OUT, or the HDMI output resolution is set to something other than 720p, 1080i, or 1080p, 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.

•When On is selected, and JPEG pictures are being dis- played in high definition via the HDMI OUT, nothing is output by the other video outputs.

Video Black Level

With this setting you can adjust the picture blackness for the analog video outputs. It does not affect the compo- nent video output when its set to progressive.

Light: Blacks are lighter, and the entire picture becomes lighter.

On the North American model, Light is the default set- ting. On the other models, Dark is the default setting.

PAL Output Setting (Not North American model)

With this setting you can specify how the DV-SP506 outputs video signals.

AUTO (default): Use this option to watch PAL and NTSC format discs. The DV-SP506 does not convert the video format. When you play a PAL disc, the video output will be PAL format. And when you play an NTSC disc, it’ll be NTSC format. Your TV must support NTSC playback in order to watch NTSC for- mat discs.

NTSC: Use this option if you want to play only NTSC format discs. When you play a PAL disc, the DV-SP506 will convert PAL format video signals to NTSC-compatible format.

PAL: Use this option if your TV doesn’t support NTSC playback, or the picture is distorted when watching NTSC discs. The DV-SP506 will convert NTSC format video signals to PAL-compatible for- mat.

Note:

• This setting can also be changed by pressing and hold-

ing the Next button, and then pressing [ON/ STANDBY] button.
