Tech Note
The ability to set brightness and contrast is no small thing. If you do not have the correct black and white levels then your images can appear washed out or you won’t be able to see into the shadows when watching darker scenes in movies. Televisions have brightness (black level) and contrast (white level) controls; however it may take a combination of tweaking both the DVD player and your television to get just the right result. We recommend using a calibration DVD like AVIA Guide to Home Theater or Digital Video Essentials and setting your display for the best possible picture. Once that is done, see if the DVD player settings can get even closer.
4.Hue: Adjusts the hue (tint) of the video output.
5.Saturation: Adjusts the saturation (color intensity level) of the video output.
6.Gamma: Adjusts the Gamma (the actual transition from black to white) of the video output. The available settings are High, Medium, Low and Off.
7.Color Space: Selects the color space for the HDMI output. The available options are:
•Auto (recommended) – Allows the DVD player to automatically select the best color space based on capability information collected from the TV display.
•YCbCr 4:4:4 – Forces YCbCr 4:4:4 color space. If you select this option please make sure that your TV is configured to accept YCbCr 4:4:4 signals, otherwise the video color will be incorrect.
•RGB – Forces RGB color space. If you select this option please make sure that your TV is configured to accept RGB signals, otherwise the video color will be incorrect.
