Progressive Scan Setup

The two items below refer to the UNIDISK SC’s component outputs (i.e. the TV SCART output on the SCART version, the YPrPb outputs on the Phono version), whether they are outputting an interlaced or progressive signal.

Dither

Default setting: Off

On display devices with limited colour depth (e.g. LCD panels) bands of colour shade may be seen, rather than smooth transitions in colour shade.

Setting to On, reduces such colour banding.

Video Detection

Default setting: Auto

The setting for this option is dependent on the method that was used to record the original video source material.

If the source material was recorded on film (e.g. most movies), set to Progressive.

If the source material was recorded on video tape (e.g. most television programmes), set to Interlaced.

If you want the UNIDISK SC to determine the setting based on the information contained on the disc being played, set to Auto.

Note:

You may sometimes find that when set to Auto the screen image flickers. In this case choose whichever of the other two settings provides the better picture.

Video Source Setup

Default setting: Off

The following menus allow you to configure the UNIDISK SC’s video output for any of the auxiliary source inputs: DIG 1 - 4 Video, AUX 1 - 2 Video and MAIN Video (for use in a KNEKT system).

Set to Off if the auxiliary source is audio only or if the auxiliary source carries a video signal that you do not want to pass through the

UNIDISK SC.

Set to Internal if you want the UNIDISK SC to output its internal video signal (the Linn name screen) when this auxiliary source is selected.

Set to Pass-throughif you want to route the auxiliary source’s video signal through the UNIDISK SC (for Pass-through to work, input and output connectors must match).

Example:

If you have a set-top box’s S-video output connected to the UNIDISK SC’s S-VIDEO IN, and the set-top box’s digital optical output connected to the UNIDISK SC’s DIG 3 input, you would want to set DIG 3 Video to Pass-through.
