You can change the resolution of the video signal being output from the HDMI OUT jack in the settings menu.  
Copyright protection system  
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 AV receiver / amplifier) for more information.  
Note  
• When connected to an HDCP incompatible display device, the picture will not be displayed properly.  
• To output the audio signals from the HDMI OUT jack, set “Audio Output” to “HDMI Normal” or “HDMI LPCM” in the  
settings menu. (refer to page 44.)  
• 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.
