VIDEO

View and modify your colorspace and bit depth settings in the VIDEO sub-menu. 

COLORSPACE

Select either 

RGB

 or 

YCbCr

. The default for most 4K Ultra High Definition displays is YCbCr.

BIT DEPTH

Select a bit depth. If the colorspace is set to RGB, the bit depth is limited to 8-bit at 4K resolution. If the color-

space is set to YCbCr, you can set the bit-depth to 8-bit, 10-bit, or 12-bit. In most cases, 10-bit is the recom-

mended bit-depth to match the REDRAY output precision to the display input precision.
