Output resolution – AYRE DX-5DSD User Manual
Page 72

If your display is compatible with both video
standards, select “
Multi-system”. Then when playing
an NTSC disc the player will output an NTSC
signal, and when playing a PAL disc the player will
output a PAL signal. This ability to display the
“native” format of the source material provides the
very highest picture quality.
However, many video displays will only accept one
type of signal and not the other. In this case the
DX-5
DSD
is capable of transcoding from one video
format to the other. You may select either “
NTSC”
or “
PAL” from the On-Screen Setup Menu and all
source material will be presented in the format
required by your display device. The conversion is
performed at the highest level of quality possible by
the Anchor Bay VRS digital video engine.
Output Resolution
The Ayre DX-5
DSD
offers several video output
resolutions. To achieve the best visual result, it is
important to select the output resolution that best
matches the “native resolution” of your display
device.
For the latest generation of 1080p, “Full HD” or
“True HD” displays, the best output resolution will
be
1080p. (A few early model 1080p displays do
not accept 1080p signal. For these displays the best
output resolution to use is
1080i.) For all other
digital televisions this will likely be
720p. For CRT
tube or rear projection televisions this will likely be
1080i. These are general recommendations that
work for most users, but there can be exceptions.
