Pure Cinema – This setting optimizes the picture for film material when the video output is set to progressive scan. Usually it is best set to On, but try switching it Off if the picture appears unnatural.

Block NR – Adjusts the amount of noise reduction applied to the block noise (artifacts visible in areas of flat color, caused by MPEG compression).
