HDMI Color Space – ‘Color Space’ refers to the number
of individual colors that can be displayed on the screen.
If you know the color space capability for the connected
TV, you can match it by selecting one of these options.
We recommend you select ‘Auto’.
HDMI Deep Color
– sets the level of Deep Color
processing applied to the HDMI video output. You can
select ‘Auto’ or ‘Off’. If this option is set to Auto and
your TV supports Deep Color, the screen displays colors
at 30-, 36- or 48-bit accuracy (compared to the 24-bit
accuracy of standard color). Check the documentation
that came with your TV to see if your TV supports Deep
Color. All system HDMI interconnect cables must be
Deep Color compatible in order to use 30/36-bit Deep
Color signals.
NOTE
If you experience a flickering or abnormal picture
after changing the Deep Color setting, connect the
unit using a Composite video cable and change the
setting to a value supported by the display.
HDMI 1080p 24Hz – You can select ‘Auto’ or ‘Off’.
Movies are recorded on film at a rate of 24 pictures
(frames) per second. Many of the movies on Blu-ray
Discs are placed on the discs at this frame rate. If your
TV supports 24 frames per second, but you would prefer
to view the video at a higher frame rate, you should turn
off HDMI 1080p 24Hz.
NOTE
< 1080/24p video signals can only be output
using the HDMI connection.
< The connected equipment (AV receiver, TV/
projector) must be 1080/24p compatible.
< The output resolution must be set to 1080p or
HDMI Auto.
HDMI 3D – To turn the 3D feature (if available) on or
off. You can select ‘Auto’ or ‘Off’.

without any processing. This option requires
a receiver that supports the movie soundtrack
format.

rate. If you do not have an audio receiver or TV
connected to your player through one of the
digital audio jacks (optical or coaxial), select
48kHz. See the documentation that came with the
receiver or TV.
< 96kHz – Select this option if the TV speakers,
amplifier, or home theater is capable of handling a
digital sampling rate of 96kHz
