nected to the HDMI OUT.

the resolution preferred by the TV, the resolution will
be 480p/576p.

also change this setting by using the [RESOLUTION]
button (see page 46).

• While an SACD or DVD-Audio disc is loaded, this
setting cannot be changed. Eject the disc first if you
need to change this setting.
• If there’s no picture after changing this setting, press
the [RESOLUTION] button repeatedly to restore the
picture.
HD JPEG Mode
If your TV is connected to the HDMI OUT and the
HDMI resolution is set to 720p, 1080i, or 1080p, this set-
ting allows you to display your JPEG pictures in high
definition.
On:
JPEG pictures displayed in high definition.
Off (default):
JPEG pictures displayed as normal.
Notes:
• If your TV is connected to a video output other than
the HDMI OUT, or the HDMI output resolution is set
to something other than 720p, 1080i, or 1080p, even if
this setting is set to On, your JPEG pictures will not be
displayed in high definition.
• When using HD JPEG, it may take a while to display
each picture. And the Zoom function cannot be used.
Also, onscreen status messages such as “Play” and
“Stop” are not displayed.
• When On is selected, and JPEG pictures are being dis-
played in high definition via the HDMI OUT, nothing
is output by the other video outputs.

the analog video outputs. It does not affect the compo-
nent video output when its set to progressive.

model)
With this setting you can specify how the DV-SP506
outputs video signals.

NTSC format discs. The DV-SP506 does not convert
the video format. When you play a PAL disc, the
video output will be PAL format. And when you play
an NTSC disc, it’ll be NTSC format. Your TV must
support NTSC playback in order to watch NTSC for-
mat discs.
NTSC:
Use this option if you want to play only
NTSC format discs. When you play a PAL disc, the
DV-SP506 will convert PAL format video signals to
NTSC-compatible format.

Use this option if your TV doesn’t support
NTSC playback, or the picture is distorted when
watching NTSC discs. The DV-SP506 will convert
NTSC format video signals to PAL-compatible for-
mat.

ing the Next
