The OSD is always available on the Composite and S-video outputs.

The OSD is always available on the Component video out- puts, EXCEPT when the input signal is higher than standard (NTSC/PAL) resolution. If so, the GTP-870HD switches from standard to bypass mode and the OSD will not appear. How- ever, you can still access the Setup menus by pressing the Setup button (which causes the GTP-870HD to switch back to standard mode).
