CHAPTER 1: Using Your Gateway Flat-Panel Monitor

What happens if I lose signal to the display while watching a movie on a HDCP-equipped component?

The component must be restarted to establish renegotiation.

For example, while watching a movie on a HDCP-enabled DVD player, you change the receiving device (DTV, monitor, or projector) input to watch broadcast TV, then change the input back to watch the DVD movie. However, you are unable to watch the movie. This is because when the input was changed, the receiver lost the HDCP signal. Restart the HDCP-enabled DVD player to allow renegotiation.

What is the cause if a movie starts and then slowly fades to static?

The receiving device is not HDCP compatible or it is not negotiating correctly. Restart the video source and re-plug all video cables from the source to the TV.

How do I know if a component is HDCP compliant?

If the video source device does not have a DVI or HDMI connection, it is not HDCP compliant.

Video/Display

I see black bars on left and right of the video. Can I stretch the video to fit more of the screen?

Press the Menu button on the right hand side of the display, select Main Menu, then select Video Adjust, then select Video Scaling. To fill more of the screen, choose Full mode.

Important

Although the HDMI interface supports audio, no audio is sent to the monitor. You must separately connect the audio output of your video device to an external audio amplifier.
