Copyright protection system
To play back the digital video images of a
BD / DVD via an HDMI connection, it is
necessary that both the unit and the TV (or
an AV receiver) support a copyright
protection system called HDCP
(high-bandwidth digital content protection
system). HDCP is copy protection
technology that comprises data encryption
and authentication of the connected AV
device. This unit supports HDCP. Please
read the operating instructions of your TV
(or AV receiver) for more information.
Note
• When using HDCP-incompatible TV, the image will not be viewed properly.
• The audio signals from HDMI OUT jack (including the sampling frequency, the number of channels and bit length)
maybe limited by the device that is connected.
• Among the devices that support HDMI, some do not support audio output (e.g. projectors). In connections with
device such as this unit, audio signals are not output from HDMI OUT jack.
• Video and audio signals may be distorted temporarily when switching to / from the HDMI output mode.
• You cannot change the video resolution during Blu-ray Disc playback. To change the resolution, stop playback.
• You can also change the HDMI output mode from “HDMI Video Resolution” setting in “Video” menu. In this menu,
you can confirm what HDMI video resolutions are supported by connected TV. Refer to page 38.
• In order to get natural and high quality film reproduction of 24-frame film material, use an HDMI cable (High Speed
HDMI Cable is recommended) and select “1080p24” if the connected TV is compatible with 1080p24 frame input.
• Even if you set “HDMI Video Resolution” setting to “1080p24”, when the contents of the disc is not compatible for
1080p24 frame, 1080p60 frame will be output.
• It is recommended to use High Speed HDMI Cable (also known as HDMI category 2 cable) for better compatibility.
