  • The resolution listed in the above chart will be enabled on this unit when the "4K/60p Output" is set to "Auto", and the "24 Output" is set to "On".
  • For AVCHD, outputting the video in 24 frames per second (1080p/24) is not available.

Note

  • The selected resolution must also be supported by your display device.
  • Even if “HDMI Resolution” is set to “4K”, the video of a non-4K compatible Blu-ray Disc™ will be output in the video resolution that is specified by the Disc and supported by the display device.
    • Refer also to your TV's manual.
  • When connected to an HDCP incompatible display device, the picture will not be displayed properly.
  • The audio signals from the HDMI OUT jack (including the sampling frequency, the number of channels and bit length) may be limited by the device that is connected.
  • Among the display device(s) that support HDMI, some do not support audio output (for example, projectors). While connected to a device such as a projector, audio will not be output from the HDMI OUT jack.
  • When this unit's HDMI OUT jack is connected to a DVI-D compatible display device(s) (HDCP compatible) with an HDMI-DVI converter cable, the signals are output in digital RGB.
  • When playing back a Frame Sequential 3D Disc, video resolution of output picture will depend on contents on the disc. ("HDMI Video" setting is not applicable for Frame Sequential 3D Discs.)

To play back the digital video images of a BD-video or DVD-video via an HDMI connection, it is necessary that both the player and the display device (or an AV receiver / amplifier) 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 display device (or an AV receiver / amplifier) for more information. Note that 4K content viewing requires an HDCP 2.2 compatible TV and cables.
