HDMI connection
If you have a HDMI TV or monitor, you can connect
it to this player using a HDMI cable.
1. Connect the HDMI jack on the player to the HDMI
jack on a HDMI compatible TV or monitor (H).
2. Set the TV's source to HDMI (refer to TV's
Owner's manual).
Notes:
• If your TV is NOT capable of handling 96 kHz
sampling frequency, set the [Sampling Freq.]
option to [48 kHz] on the setup menu (See page
18). When this choice is made, this unit will auto-
matically convert any 96 kHz signals to 48 kHz so
your system can decode them. (See page 18)
• If [SPDIF] option is set to [Bitstream] on the setup
menu and your TV does not support Bitstream
Audio out in HDMI connection, audio sound may
be distorted or may not output. In this case, set
the [SPDIF] option to [PCM] in the setup menu.
(See page 18)
• Dolby Digital Plus and DTS-HD capability limited
to 5.1 channels.
• Dolby TrueHD processing for two channels only.
• If a title or disc is recorded in a resolution lower
than 1080p, the output resolution is automatically
changed to no higher than 1080i (even if 1080p is
selected in the menu).
• The arrow on the cable connector body should
face up for correct alignment with the connector
on the player.

When you use HDMI connection, you can change
the resolution for the HDMI output. (Refer to

tions. To solve the problem, turn off the player and

fied, a message appears on TV screen. In this
