BD Wise (Samsung Players only)
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/DVDs.
• Off : The output resolution stays fixed at the
resolution you set previously in the Resolution
menu, regardless of the resolution of the disc.
See Resolution below.
• On : The player outputs video at the original
resolution and frame rate of the Blu-ray Disc/DVDs.
✎
NOTE
` When BD Wise is on, the Resolution setting
automatically defaults to BD Wise and BD Wise
appears in the Resolution menu.
` If the player is connected to a device that does not
support BD Wise, you can not use the BD Wise
function.
` For proper operation of BD Wise, set the BD Wise
menu of both the player and the TV to On.
