content, which may also require an always-on broadband
internet connection. Some features may require additional
bandwidth. Some recordable media may not be supported.
Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD and DTS support for up to
5.1 channels (DTS HD support for DTS core only). MP3/
WMA audio files not supported. HDMI audio support for
PCM only. Because HD DVD is a new format that makes
use of new technologies, certain disc, digital connection and
other compatibility and/or performance issues are possible.
This may, in rare cases, include disc freezing while
Certain system requirements

• In case the menu of “Resolution Setting” disappears, make composite video (yellow) connection to restore it, then select the

HD DVD DVD-Video
For best viewing of film movie material (24p output)
Movies that are produced on film, as opposed to video, are traditionally captured at a frame rate of 24 frames per second.
Your player can maintain the 24 frames per second frame rate of such movies, allowing you to enjoy them in their
native form. To enable this feature, connect an HD display capable of accepting a 1080p/24Hz signal and select “up to
1080p/24Hz.”
Note
• Most film based HD DVDs display images at 24 frames per second and video based HD DVDs display images at 30 frames or
60 fields per second. Depending on the content, “up to 1080p/24Hz” may lower smoothness of playback and/or reduce vertical
resolution. In the case of video based HD DVDs, we recommend that “up to 1080p/24Hz” setting is not used.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright © 19yy name of author
Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for
details type `show w'. This is free software, and you are welcome to
redistribute it under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it free
software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to attach
them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey the exclusion of
warranty; and each file should have at least the "copyright" line and a pointer
to where the full notice is found.
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the
appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands
you use may be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they
could even be mouse-clicks or menu items – whatever suits your program.
<One line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it
does.>
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program; if necessary.
Here is a sample; alter the names:

This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but

See the GNU General Public License for more details.
This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may
consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General Public
License instead of this License.
E x h i b i t B
To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that there is no
warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is modified by someone else
and passed on, the recipients should know that what they have is not the
original version, so that the original author's reputation will not be affected by
problems that might be introduced by others.
GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE Version 2.1, February
1999
Copyright ©1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 59 Temple Place,
Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA Everyone is permitted to copy and
distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not
allowed.
Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of any free
program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot effectively restrict the
users of a free program by obtaining a restrictive license from a patent holder.
Therefore, we insist that any patent license obtained for a version of the
library must be consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license.
[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts as the
successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence the version
number 2.1.]
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary
GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser General Public
License, applies to certain designated libraries, and is quite different from the
ordinary General Public License. We use this license for certain libraries in
order to permit linking those libraries into non-free programs.
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom
to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public Licenses are
intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software – to
make sure the software is free for all its users.
When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using a
shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a combined
work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary General Public License
therefore permits such linking only if the entire combination fits its criteria
of freedom. The Lesser General Public License permits more lax criteria for
linking other code with the library.
This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some specially
designated software packages – typically libraries – of the Free Software
Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You can use it too, but
we suggest you first think carefully about whether this license or the ordinary
General Public License is the better strategy to use in any particular case,
based on the explanations below.
We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it does
Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General Public License.
It also provides other free software developers Less of an advantage over
competing non-free programs. These disadvantages are the reason we use
the ordinary General Public License for many libraries. However, the Lesser
license provides advantages in certain special circumstances.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, not
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have
the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service
if you wish); that you receive source code or can get it if you want it; that you
can change the software and use pieces of it in new free programs; and that
you are informed that you can do these things.
For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to encourage
the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes a de-facto
standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be allowed to use the
library. A more frequent case is that a free library does the same job as widely
used non-free libraries. In this case, there is little to gain by limiting the free
library to free software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid distributors
to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these rights. These
restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies
of the library or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis or for a
fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave you. You must
make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. If you link other
code with the library, you must provide complete object files to the recipients,
so that they can relink them with the library after making changes to the library
and recompiling it. And you must show them these terms so they know their
rights.
In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free programs
enables a greater number of people to use a large body of free software. For
example, permission to use the GNU C Library in non-free programs enables
many more people to use the whole GNU operating system, as well as its
variant, the GNU/Linux operating system.
Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the
users’ freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is linked with
the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run that program using a
modified version of the Library.
We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the library,
and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal permission to copy,
distribute and/ or modify the library.
