VIDEO SETTINGS

After connecting your satellite receiver, taking a moment to optimize your video settings will ensure the best viewing experience. Press OPTIONS on your remote control, then enter the numbers 4, 5. The following Video Settings options will be available:

•OUTPUT FORMAT: This determines the primary resolution that is used to send video to your TV. On most HDTVs, 1080i is optimal. For SDTVs, use 480i.

•4X3 OVERRIDE: Turning this on will “override” the primary output format when tuned to standard definition stations. Turning on the override allows most TVs to automatically stretch SD content to fill the whole screen. If you’d prefer to control this yourself using the ASPECT button, leave it Off.

•TV TYPE: This option specifies what type of TV you have. Widescreen TVs are 16x9 (such as most HDTVs); traditional square TVs (such as most SDTVs) are 4x3. Select whichever is applicable to you.

On a regular HDTV, recommended settings are 1080i, 480i, and 16x9 and will normally result in standard definition channels automatically “stretched” by your TV to fit the screen.

On an SDTV, recommended settings are 480i, Off, and 4x3 Letterbox.

Select “SAVE” and press ENTER after changing the settings and EXIT to return to live TV.

If you select an output format that is not supported by your TV, video may be lost. If this occurs, press EXIT, OPTIONS, 4, 5, and then 6 repeatedly until video returns. The selected output format will be displayed on the Front Panel of the receiver with each change.

You can use the ASPECT or B button while watching any program or recording to Stretch (“str”) or Zoom (“zoo”) the picture. You can return the aspect to Normal (“nor”) when the program has finished. The current aspect mode is shown on the front panel of your receiver each time you press the button.
