SETUP MENU OPTIONS

The Setup Menu of the BPD-103 presents many setup and configuration options. For most users, the default configuration will be sufficient and you will not require any changes to the settings. However, if you need to configure the player to perfectly match your home theater setup and viewing preferences, please refer to the following sections for details about each configuration option.

Using the Setup Menu System

Like many other sections listed in this guide, the player’s Setup Menu allows you to make adjustments to match your specific audio/video configuration. When performing menu adjustments, we will use the following terminology to indicate the location of the desired function:

Setup Menu Section > Menu Item > Selection

Setup Menu Section is the uppermost Setup Menu level. Within the BDP-103, there are six Setup Menu sections listed in the left column of the Setup Menu: Playback Setup, Video Setup, Audio Format Setup, Audio Processing, Device Setup, and Network Setup.

Menu Item is the parameter to be adjusted which appears in the center column of the Setup Menu. Once you enter a Setup Menu Section, the list of Menu Items and their current value are displayed in a box.

Selection is the actual numeric or descriptive element that represents the change being made to the selected parameter. It is the item located to the right of its corresponding Menu Item.

A Scroll Mark appears at the top or bottom of the menu when there are more Menu Items or Selections than what can fit in a screen. You may use the UP and DOWN ARROW buttons to scroll the display in order to access additional items.

The preceding diagram should give a good description of the various elements and their context. In this screen we could, for example, instruct you to set the Auto Play Mode parameter to Off in the Playback Setup section. To indicate where we were, you would see the following: Playback Setup > Auto Play Mode > Off.
