advanced video processing functions rely on the TrueLife feature, we recommend leaving this
option on.
6. CCS: To turn on/off the Cross Color Suppression feature of the built-in Genesis/Faroudja video
processor. CCS helps separate contrasting colors and may prevent the colors from bleeding
into one another. The setting is useful in some circumstances, especially when displaying static
pictures recorded as video. This setting is effective only when TrueLife is turned on. Since
CCS mainly affects static pictures instead of motion contents, we recommend turning it off.
7. Noise Reduction: To set the video noise reduction level of the built-in Genesis/Faroudja video
processor. Turning on noise reduction can reduce the snow-like or block-like video noise
generated by broadcasting or video encoding. However the side effect of noise reduction is
some loss of fine details and some “ghosting” effect – fast moving objects may show a visible
trace. The recommended setting is “Off”. Turn on noise reduction only when the original
content has a lot of video noise. This setting is effective only when TrueLife is turned on. The
available settings are:
• High – High noise reduction. Video noise is significantly reduced. Moving objects may
leave a visible trail (“ghosting”).
• Medium – Medium noise reduction. Video noise is strongly reduced. Moving objects may
leave a visible trail.
• Low – Low noise reduction. Video noise is slightly reduced. Moving objects may leave a
slightly visible trail.
• Off – Turn off noise reduction completely.
8. Video Mode: To select the mode of conversion for video output. The options are:
• Video 1 – Video 1 mode is recommended for viewing NTSC content with video or 3:2
cadence. If you primarily watch NTSC content, this is the preferred mode.
• Video 2 – Video 2 mode is recommended for viewing NTSC/PAL contents with video, 3:2
and 2:2 cadences. If you watch both NTSC and PAL movies this is the preferred mode.
Please note that in Video 2 mode, NTSC/PAL conversion is not performed for analog video
outputs (composite and S-Video).
9. RGB Range: To select the HDMI RGB output range. This setting only affects output in RGB
color space, primarily used when the DVD player is connected to a DVI input. The options are:
• Normal – Normal RGB range suitable for video display.
• Enhanced – Expanded RGB range suitable for personal computer (PC) display. Some TVs
are designed to be used as a PC monitor, and expect signal in expanded RGB range when
the DVI input is selected. For these TVs if the video signal uses the normal RGB range, the
black-white contrast will be reduced. You can set the DVD player to use the Enhanced
RGB Range and restore proper contrast.
