BD Wise is Samsung's latest inter-connectivity feature. When you connect a Samsung player and a Samsung TV with BD Wise to each other via HDMI, and BD Wise is on in both the player and TV, the player outputs video at the video resolution and frame rate of the Blu-ray Disc/DVD.

Set the output resolution of the HDMI video signal to Auto, 1080p, 1080i, 720p or 480p. The number indicates the number of lines of video per frame. The i and p indicate interlaced and progressive scan, respectively. Generally, the higher quality.

If the player is connected to a 24Fs compatible TV, setting the Movie Frame (24Fs) feature to Auto lets the player adjust its HDMI output to 24 frames per second automatically for improved picture quality.

•

You can enjoy the Movie Frame (24Fs) feature only on a TV supporting this frame rate.

•

Movie Frame is only available when the player is in the HDMI 1080i or 1080p output resolution modes.

Lets you set the color space format for the HDMI output so that it matches the capabilities of the connected device (TV, monitor, etc). The screen goes black momentarily after you have selected a format.

Lets you set the product to output HDMI video with Deep Color. Deep Color provides more accurate color reproduction with greater color depth.
