Menus

Black level

Adjust the contrast (Light / Dark) according to the brightness of the room in which you are viewing your DTH 8000 images.

Display Dimmer

Depending on the brightness of the room where you’ve installed your DTH 8000, select one of the 3 available settings (Automatic / Bright / Dim) to adapt the brightness of the display panel to suit its environment.

PAL/NTSC output

EN

If the images of the DVD being played appear in black and white on your TV

screen, the standard of the video signals transmitted to your TV is incorrect.

 

Change the video signal from PAL to NTSC or vice versa.

 

Note: PAL is the name of the colour coding system used in most European countries. NTSC is the name of the colour coding system used in the United States and some other countries.

AV1 output

Choose the RGB, S-Videoor Video signal, depending on the device connected to the AV1 Scart socket (usually TV sets). If you don’t know which type of signal is accepted by your TV set, try each setting to get the best result.

Note: transmission of DTH 8000 images to TV images (with certain TV sets)

If you want to watch one channel while recording programmes on another channel, you must change the AV1 output connection setting by selecting Video instead of RGB in the System Options menu.

AV2 Input

Choose the RGB, S-Videoor Video signal, depending on the device connected to the AV2 Scart socket (usually a satellite receiver). If you don’t know which type of signal is accepted by your TV set, try each setting to get the best result.

Note: format of image signals:

RGB: English signal colour code (Red – Green – Blue).

S-Video: S-VHS (Y/C), signals with separate colour components and brightness.

Video: CVBS, composite video signals.

Standby mode

Your DTH 8000 has an Eco Standby to reduce its power consumption when on stand-by. Select On to enable this function.

Note: the Eco function does not allow the display of programming warning messages on the display panel. Only the record icon will flash.

AV link

Permits a television to control your DTH 8000 and download the same channels on the same numbers.

Note: this function is positioned by default on On.

AutoClock

Allows your DTH 8000 to always be set at the correct time, date and day.

Note: leave this function activated to avoid any problems when programming recordings.
