Blanking Level

This adjusts the blanking from black to white. This can be used to create a gray side bar for use with 4:3 aspect ratio sources on wideangle screens to help reduce the chance of image burn-in. Image burn in is not covered by Faroudja’s warrantee.

Note: The DVP1500 will store unique blanking and H&V position settings for each aspect ratio which are automatically stored and recalled when the different aspect ratios are selected

Patterns Menu

The best approach to system setup is to use a DVD that offers the proper test patterns. This way, the system is aligned for the entire signal path. If a test DVD is not available, then use the internal test patterns provided in the DVP1500.

Note: The test pattern generator in the DVP1500 is set to SMPTE standards. To insure proper output levels for display setup, the picture controls in the DVP1500 cannot be accessed when the test patterns are being used. Adjust levels, if needed, in the display device.
