8 SETTINGS (Ctd.)
Output Resolution: To choose the output resolution that best matches your
television's native resolution. For a detailed description on how to choose a proper
output resolution, please refer to the Compatibility section on page 5 of this manual.
1080p24 Output: To set 1080p 24Hz output options. This option only applies to the
HDMI output at 1080p resolution. Many Blu-ray Discs that originated from theatrical
movies are encoded using 24Hz frame rate, the same number of frames per second
as the original theatrical film. If the TV properly supports 1080p 24Hz, smoother
motion can be achieved by enabling 1080p24 Output for such discs. The available
options are:
Auto – Video encoded in 24Hz frame rate will be output as 1080p 24Hz if the
TV informs the player that it can support the 1080p24 signal.
On – Video encoded in 24Hz frame rate will be output as 1080p 24Hz without
regard to whether the TV can support the 1080p24 signal or not. This is
useful if the TV can actually support 1080p24 but does not properly state its
capability. Please note that if the TV cannot support 1080p24, selecting this
option will result in no video.
Off (default) – Video encoded in 24Hz frame rate will be converted to 60Hz
(NTSC) or 50Hz (PAL)
DVD 24p Conversion: To set 24Hz frame rate conversion for DVD. This option only
applies to the HDMI output and is available only when 1080p24 Output is enabled
(set to Auto or On). Many DVDs that originated from theatrical movies are encoded
using a method called "3:2 telecine" to convert the 24 frames per second film to 60Hz
video signal. The player can convert the 60Hz video signal back to 24 frames per
second and output as 1080p 24Hz. Smoother motion can be achieved by enabling
this option, provided that the TV and the disc both meet the conditions for the
conversion. The available options are:
• On – Convert DVD to 24Hz frame rate when possible.
• Off (default) – Do not convert DVD to 24Hz frame rate.
