Step 4: Match Video Formats and Signals

To match the video formats and signals in your system, we recom- mend that you follow these steps:

1.Determine your monitor format. The factory default video format in North America is NTSC Interlaced. The factory default video format overseas is either NTSC Interlaced or PAL Interlaced.

2.Look at the back panel of the video source, to determine which video signals you have available. Video signals can be compo- nent (best fidelity), composite, or s-video. For a description

of video signals, see Choosing a Standard Video Signal, on page 27.

3.Review Figure 4, on page 25, if you are located in North America, and Figure 5, on page 26, if you are located overseas. These figures show the factory default video signals and formats, by video device. If you do not want to use the factory defaults, you need to select the signal (component, s-video, or composite) and format (NTSC or PAL) you want to use via the Home Theater Standard 7.1 configuration menu.

4.Select the video signal you want to use for each video device.
