ENGLISH
1. Home Theater Playback – Playing on a Multi-channel System –
NOTE
• When the HDMI video resolution is set to "1080P24", a HDMI video signal is output from the DBP-A100
with a resolution of 1080P and a frame rate of 24 frames per second, regardless of the video signal
on the disc being played. Because of this, when playing discs containing video signals recorded with
a frame rate of something other than 24 frames per second, the movement of the picture may be
unnatural. If this happens, set the HDMI video resolution to something other than "1080P24".
• When the "I/P Direct" (vpage 23) setting is "On" and a disc with a frame rate of 24 frames per second
is played, no video signals are output from the video or S-Video outputs.
• When the "I/P Direct" (vpage 23) setting is "Off", "1080P24" is not displayed.
Setting HDMI Audio Output
• When you press and set "HDMI Setup" – "Audio Setup" to "Auto" (vpage 23) on the GUI menu,
the audio mode is set according to the connected device.
