Connecting using the component
video output
You can use the component video output instead of the standard
video out jack to connect this player to your TV (or other equipment).
•
Use a component video cable (not supplied) to connect the
COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks to a component video input on
your TV, monitor or AV receiver.
Be careful to match up the colors of the three jacks for correct
connection.
Changing the video output format
Use the
OUTPUT FORMAT
button located on both the front panel
and the remote control to switch the video output format for the
component and HDMI video outputs.
The table below shows the output settings.
*1
Video output is 480i during copy protected DVD-Video playback.
*2
Video output during BD-ROM playback is 480i depending on the disc.
*3
Refer to 24p output below for conditions.
*4
The frame frequency for 1080/24p is still 60 Hz.
*5
The video output will be interrupted when switching the video output.
Note
• Depending on your display, some of the settings may result in
the picture disappearing. In this case, press
OUTPUT FORMAT
repeatedly until the picture re-appears.
• 1080/60p and 1080/24p output is only compatible with HDMI
displays. They are not compatible with the component video
output.
• When
Output Format
is set to
720p
,
1080i
or
1080p
, video is
output in 16:9 format even if
TV Aspect Ratio
is set to
4:3
(Standard)
. See
TV Aspect Ratio
on page 41.
• If the contours of the displayed subjects look jagged or blurred,
try setting the Output Format to 480i. (If you connected this
player to your TV with the HDMI connection and the picture
disappears when you switch the Output Format to 480i, use the
component connection with the 480i Output Format or S-Video,
the standard composite connection instead.)
• Note that when using a Component Video connection with a TV
or other AV component (
not
using HDMI), 480/60i video may be
output in 480/60p.
