Video and Audio Output Signal when Outputting to 2HOMI Devices
(HOMI Auto(Oual) Mode and HOMI Auto (Independent) Mode)
Default settings are underlined.
oAbout Video Signal
When 'About HDMI Video Resolution Setting" (&page 15) is set to "Auto", of the resolution
supported by both of the 2connected devices, the DVD-A1 UDCI outputs the highest resolution
video signal to both devices.
oAbout Audio Signal
(1) Check audio signals that can be input by the device to be connected.
•Audio format ······Bit stream (Dolby Digital. DTS etc.), Linear PCM, etc.
•Number of channels
(2) About number of output channels of multi-channel audio
When outputting bitstream signals to two HDMI devices, the signals are output to both HDMI devices
if they both support bitstream signals. Of only one device support bit stream, LPCM is output to the
device, which does not support bit stream.
When outputting LPCM signals to two HDMI devices, it is not possible to output multi-channel audio
signals with different numbers of channels to the two HOMIdevices.
When the number of channels of multi-channel audio supported by the connected 2HDMI devices
are different, the audio signal output to each mode becomes as follows:
•HOMI Auto (Dual) :
Outputs multi-channel audio of less number of channels to both devices.
If the supported number of channels is 7.1 channel and 5.1 channel, respectively, 5.1 channel audio
is output. If the supported number of channels is multi-channel and 2-channel (or 2.1-channel). multi-
channel and 2-channel are output.
•HOMI Auto (Independent) :
Multi-channel audio is output as is to the device, which supports more number of channels.
LPCM audio of 2-channel is output to the other device.
We recommend you use this mode when outputting to both an AV Amp and TV
oAbout Audio Format to be Output
Audio format supported by 2connected HDMI devices is output.
When multi-channel audio is output, the output channel is as described above (2).

• OVO-A1UOCI automatically detects audio/video signal supported by the connected HOMI device
and outputs the signal. To change the setting, see "HOMI Setup" on the GUI menu (@"'page 25,

-N,U4
To disable video or audio output from the HDMI terminal, set "Video Out" of "Pure Direct Setup", which
outputs high quality analog audio to "Off". To enable the HDMI signal output set the Pure Direct mode
to one of the following setting:
•Pure Direct mode "Off" or "User Preset 1" or "User Preset 2" ("*)

• If the HDMI resolution is not set to ':Auto", set it to correspond with the resolution of your television.
Images will not be projected normally if the television resolution and DVD-A1UDCl's output resolution
do not match.
•Audio and video will be temporarily interrupted if the power of the connected device currently playing
back is turned off, or input is switched.
•When you change the HDMI video resolution of the DVD-A1UDCI, it takes from a few seconds up to
about 10 seconds for validation between the DVD-AlUDCI and the connected device. Audio/video is
not output during this period.
•When outputting deep colour or 1080p, etc., we recommend you use High Speed HDMI cable for
enhanced high-quality playback.
'N.na
When the HDMI video resolution is set to "1080P24", HDMI video signals are output from the DVD-
AlUDCI with aresolution of 1080P and aframe rate of 24 frames per second, regardless of the video
signals on the disc being played. Because of this, when playing discs containing video signals recorded
with aframe rate of something other than 24 frames per second, the movement of the picture may be
unnatural. If this happens, set the HDMI video resolution to something other than '" 080P24".

both the player and
TV or the AV Amp need to support the copyright protection system known as
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection System). HDCP is copyright protection technology
comprised of data encryption
and authentication of the connected AV device. The DVD-A 1 UDCI
supports HDCP

-If adevice that does not support HDCP is connected, video and audio are not output correctly. Read the
owner's manual of your television or
AV Amp for more information.
-
The audio signal from the HDMI output terminal (sampling frequency, number of channels, etc.) may
be limited by the HDMI audio specifications of the connected device regarding permissible inputs. For
example, if the HDMI audio specification of the connected device is 5.1 channels, 5.1-channel audio will
be automatically output even when playing back 7.1 channels by the DVD-A 1 UDCI. In this case, analog
audio output will also
be 5.1-channel.
-Audio signal input may not
be supported depending on the HDMI compatible monitor (projector, etc.)
being used.
When the
DVD-A 1 UDCI is connected to this kind of device, audio signals are not output from the HDMI
terminal.
