Setting up the player
Selecting the best output resolution
For the latest generation of 1080p, "Full HD" or "True HD" TV displays, the
best output resolution will naturally be 1080p. For earlier "HD Ready" digital
televisions this might be 720p or 1080i. It is usually best to set the output
of the CXU to the native resolution of the TV, consult the TVs manual for
details of the actual resolution of its panel. Large TVs are often 1080p (1920
x 1080) but smaller TVs are sometimes 720p (1280 x 720). These are general
recommendations that work for most users, but there can be exceptions.
Advanced users may want to try all supported resolutions and choose the
one that provides the best visual result.
The CXU also supports a special "Source Direct" output mode via its HDMI
output. This mode is recommended for use with external video processors or
high-end TVs with high quality scalers. In "Source Direct" mode, the player
works as a "transport". It decodes video from the discs and then sends the
raw video signal in its native resolution and format, without extra processing,
to the external video processor or TV. The actual output resolution thus varies
by content:
Content Source direct output resolution
PAL DVD 576i
NTSC DVD 480i

Most Blu-ray TV shows or Concerts 1080i

SACD and DVD-Audio 1080p
For both HDMI outputs, the following output resolutions are available: 4Kx2K,
Auto, 1080p, 1080i, 720p, 480p/576p, 480i/576i, and Source Direct.
If 'Auto' is selected, the player will determine the output resolution based on
the best signal resolution that the TV can display. It does this by reading the
EDID of the TV via the HDMI connection, if all is well the TV will tell the CXU
the range of video outputs it can support and the CXU will pick the highest
one. The CXU will then always scale the output to this resolution.
If any of the other resolutions is selected the CXU will always scale the output
to the resolution you select.
Note: 4Kx2K is a new standard and only a handful of TVs currently support
this. For most TV selecting this option will cause the picture to be lost.
To change the output resolution, press the Res button on the remote to bring
up the 'Resolution' menu, then press the  or  buttons on the remote to

Diagnostic video output
The CXU features a composite (CVBS) diagnostic video output. Optionally
you can connect this to your TV as well as making a HDMI connection. This
output can be useful if you lose the HDMI output (perhaps by selecting an
output type your TV cannot display).
