5. Set the macrovision defeat mode to the appropriate setting. If the source has
Macrovision encoding, select the check box; otherwise, leave it deselected.
6. Set color space to RGB or YPrPb, based on the input signal type.
NOTE: The above values are not saved as part of the source format; they are
global setting saved for the mode selected in the mode drop-down list. If
auto is selected in the mode drop down list, the settings will apply to any
detected mode.
7. Set blanking to auto.
8. Select a source type similar to the desired source type in the name field of the User
Source Format region. If an existing (incorrect) mode was detected and displayed in
the currentMode field, select that mode from the drop-down list.
9. Click the New Source button, and enter a name for new source format. Suggested
naming scheme is “Hres x Vres Frequency Timing,” for example, “1360x768
60Hz CVT.”
10. Select the appropriate interlace mode by selecting the Interlace box for an
interlaced source, or leaving it deselected for a progressive source.
11. If configuring a HD video mode that uses TriSync, set the Trisync Ignore to 100.
Otherwise, leave at 0.
12. Copy the value in the Device Status monLineCount field to the User Source Format
LineCount field.
13. Copy the value in the Device Status monLinePeriod field to the User Source Format
LinePeriod field.
14. Enter the pixels per line in the Pixels Per Line field. If this is unknown, consult a
VESA timing chart, or calculate the value by using the following formula:
Pixels Per Line of Detected Source *(1+(Desired Mode HSize - digHSize)/digHSize.
For example, if the new mode you are creating has a resolution of 1360x768, but
1280x768 was the detected mode, and digFirstPixel was 401, the formula would be:
(digFirstPixel-1+digHsize) * (1 + ((1360 - 1280)/1280)); resulting in:
(401-1+1280) * (1 + 80/1280); resulting in:
1680 * (1 + .0625); resulting in:
1680 * (1.0625) resulting in:
1785
15. Enter the active horizontal resolution in the HSize field.
16. Enter the active vertical resolution in the VSize field.
17. Copy the value in the Device Status digFirstPixel field to the User Source Format
FirstPixel field.
18. Copy the value in the Device Status digFirstLine field to the User Source Format
FirstLine field.
19. Click the Update button. This will copy the User Source Format settings into the User.
Source.Config file of the VN-Matrix device designated as the controller.
