Remedy
• Connect the cable properly according to the connected devices
(page 16).
• Disconnect the cable (video/audio cable or HDMI cable), then
reinsert it firmly and all the way in.
• For BDP-53FD, a TV or any other device which outputs video signals
must be connected to the HDMI OUT (MAIN) terminal (page 19).
Read the operating instructions for the connected components and
switch to the proper input.
• On the BDP-53FD, switch the resolution at Resolution (page 43).
• On the BDP-52FD, press HDMI to switch the video resolution output
from the HDMI OUT terminal (page 13).
1080p or Deep Color video signals may not be output properly,
depending on the HDMI cable being used or the player's settings. If you
wish to output the video signals with 1080p or Deep Color, connect the
®
TV using a High Speed HDMI
reset the player using the Setup Navigator (page 24).
The picture may not be displayed properly if a DVI device is connected.
Set the HDMI Mode to something other than Pure Audio (page 43).
• Press  STOP to stop playback, then restart playback.
• If the playback cannot be stopped, press  STANDBY/ON on the
player's front panel to turn off the power, then turn the power back on.
• If the power cannot be turned off, unplug the power cord, wait several
seconds, then plug the power cord back into the outlet.
With some discs, it may not be possible to output the video signals from
the VIDEO output terminal. In this case, connect using an HDMI cable
(page 16).
• This player supports Rovi analog copy protection technology. With
some TVs (such as with built-in video deck), the picture will not be
displayed properly when the copy protected DVD title is played. This is
not a malfunction.
• If the player and TV are connected via a DVD recorder/video deck,
etc., the picture will not be displayed properly due to analog copy
protection. Connect the player and TV directly.
Read the operating instructions for the TV and set the TV's aspect ratio
properly.
Set TV Screen properly (page 41).

HDMI OUT terminal, they may be output with an aspect ratio of 16:9

The picture may be interrupted when the resolution of the recorded
video signal switches. On the BDP-53FD, switch the resolution at
