Video Settings

A MVP851 option allows the adjustment of various video parameters, not unlike what can be adjusted on a TV/Moni- tor (e.g. Brightness, Contrast, Sharpness and Color Level, etc.). Once these adjustments have been made for a given DVD Disc, the MVP851 will store into memory the new settings. Every time that disc is played the preferences stored in memory will be reapplied automatically. Up to 200 different discs with their unique settings are stored in memory. If the last disc played had ajustments made to it, the next disc played will start with those settings.

There are four different Preset Video Settings Options available N, S, F and C that may be selected. In addition, there are four On-Screen Video Adjustment Menus avail- able, U1 through U4, with separate individual adjustments.
