•Down-converting from the component video signal to the S-Video and composite video signal is possible only when the resolution of a component video signal is 480i / 576i.

•When a non-standard video signal from a game machine or some other source is input, the video conversion function might not operate. If this happens, please set the “Video Convert Mode” to “OFF”.

•When the video conversion function has been used, information such as that of text broadcasts which has been added to the video signal might not be output. If this happens, please set the “Video Convert Mode” to “OFF”.

System Setup

The video conversion function

The AVC-A1XV is equipped with a function for up and down converting video signals.

Because of this, the AVC-A1XV’s MONITOR OUT terminal can be connected to the monitor (TV) with a set of cables offering a higher quality connection, regardless of how the player and the AVC-A1XV’s video input terminals are connected.

Generally speaking, analog video connections using the component video terminals offer the highest quality playback, followed by connections using the S-Video terminals, then connections using the regular video terminals (yellow).

¢Cautions on the ZONE2 video conversion function

There is no TBC (Time Base Collector) for ZONE2.

When the component video terminals are used to connect the AVC- A1XV with a TV (or monitor, projector, etc.) and the video (yellow) or S-Video terminals are used to connect the AVC-A1XV with a VCR, depending on the combination of the TV and VCR the picture may flicker in the horizontal direction, be distorted, be out of sync or not display at all when playing video tapes.

If this happens, connect a commercially available video stabilizer, etc., with a TBC (time base corrector) function between the AVC-A1XV and the VCR, or if your VCR has a TBC function, turn it on.
