Improving the Video Display

The Emerge gathers system information from the target system through observation. Because it has an unobtrusive presence, it cannot obtain specific system information. When it obtains the video image from the target system, it digitizes the analog signal. Because its video output is based on information gathered through observation and the sampling of color bits, you may need to make slight adjustments to improve video display.

Other factors that affect video display are slight variations in signal levels and timing, which may cause grainy colors, dithering, ghosting, or misalignment. Such factors should be corrected as they can affect the performance of your system.

Connection to a switch introduces a delay in the transmission of the video signal for each tier of computers. You can optimize the video by making adjustments in the Adjustments menu.

your screen.
