3D Settings

For some 3D discs, to stop a movie during 3D playback, press the 5 button once. The movie stops and the 3D mode option is de-activated. To change a 3D option selection when you are playing a 3D movie, press the 5 button once. The Blu-ray menu appears. Press the 5 button again, then select 3D Settings in the Blu-ray menu.

Depending on the content and the position of the picture on your TV screen, you may see vertical black bars on the left side, right side, or both sides.

TV Aspect Ratio

Depending on the disc type, some aspect ratios may not be available.

If you select an aspect ratio and option which is different than the aspect ratio of your TV screen, the picture might appear to be distorted.

If you select 16:9 Original, your TV may display 4:3 Pillarbox (black bars on the sides of the picture).

BD Wise (Samsung Products only)

When BD Wise is on, the Resolution setting automatically defaults to BD Wise and BD Wise appears in the Resolution menu.

If the product is connected to a device that does not support BD Wise, you cannot use the BD Wise function.

For proper operation of BD Wise, set the BD Wise option in both the product and the TV to On.

Digital Output

Be sure to select the correct Digital Output or you will hear no sound or just loud noise.

If the HDMI device (AV receiver, TV) is not compatible with compressed formats (Dolby Digital, DTS), the audio signal outputs as PCM.

Regular DVDs do not have BONUSVIEW audio and Navigation Sound Effects.

Some Blu-ray Discs do not have BONUSVIEW audio and Navigation Sound Effects.

This Digital Output setup does not affect the analog (L/R) audio or HDMI audio output to your TV. It affects the optical and HDMI audio output when your product is connected to an AV receiver.

If you play MPEG audio soundtracks, the audio signal outputs as PCM regardless of your Digital Output selections (PCM or Bitstream).

Digital Output can be activated when Speaker Selection is set to TV Speaker.

BD-Live Internet Connection

The Internet connection may be restricted while you are using BD-LIVE contents.
