MAKING USER SETTINGS (cont.)
* NOTE
If your HDTV is 1080p-compliant and connected by HDMI, setting “1080p24 Pass” to YES causes 1080p/24
transmissions (at 24 frames per second) to be displayed at 1080p/24. Likewise, setting “1080p30 Pass” to
YES causes 1080p/30 transmissions (at 30 frames per second) to be displayed at 1080p/30.
The HDMI-connected HDTV may report that it is not 1080p-compliant and set “1080p24 Pass” (or “1080p30
Pass”) to NO. In this case 1080p transmissions will be output at one of the other resolutions (1080i, 720p,
480p, or 480i). If you override this NO setting and set YES, you may see nothing for 1080p transmissions.
If the HDTV is not connected by HDMI, “HDMI Cable Required” is displayed and you cannot set “1080p24
Pass” or “1080p30 Pass” to either YES or NO.
Transmissions at 480i, 480p, 720p, or 1080i can never be output at 1080p.
Further information about the TV Display Capability
The TV Display Capability settings relate to equipment that is connected to the HDMI and COMPONENT
VIDEO connectors because the settings control the output at those connectors. If equipment is connected via
an HDMI cable, that equipment may also pass information back to your set-top, which may affect the settings
that are available.
Generally, the TV Display Capability settings do not affect equipment connected to the VIDEO OUT and
S-VIDEO connectors, because the output at these connectors is always standard definition 480i.
