sony bds-300 questions - Blu-ray Forum

crazyxbowler · 01-18-2008, 08:10 PM

I have a projector that does 1080i or 720p and was wondering what settings you would have the dvd play on. and my other question is once you've went through the initial setup of the bd player how can you change the video settings again. I can't seem to find the place to change between 1080i and 720p anymore. i was watching superbad and it took about 4 minutes to load the disc where casino royale only took about 30 seconds. firmware or just the disc are different?

Firmware should be 3.70 which is the newest one out.

You should be able to access the setuo menu from the remote.I think its mark set up or somthing like that.Look at the upper left by the blue key in the middle.

i can do part of the setup but there is no options there on how to change the resolution just 16:9, 4:3 settings. and how do i check what version of firmware i have?

GO back to where it say TV DISPLAY 16:9 or 4:3 and I think highlight 16:9 and hit the BLUE key..where the yellow and red is it should tell you.

Check here for more details.

Press system menu during playback
select "a/v control" press enter
select "video control"
Press <-/-> to select a setting
I would mess with a memory location

That's the best I can find in the book.
