Optimizing video images
Your projector has been factory optimized for excellent performance no matter what the source. However, if you wish to make further changes you can optimize the image using onscreen menus. For general information on using the menus, see page 19.
•Adjust the Keystone, Contrast, Brightness, Color, or Tint in the Picture menu (page 20).
•Select a Sharpness setting (page 22).
•Use the Color Control to adjust the color gain and offset (page 23).
•Adjust the Color Temperature. Select a listed value (page 23).
•Turn on Overscan to remove noise on the edges of the video image (page 21).
•Change the Aspect ratio (page 20). Aspect ratio is the ratio of the image width to image height. TV screens are usually 1.33:1, also known as 4:3. HDTV and most DVDs are 1.78:1, or 16:9 (the projector’s default). Choose the option that best fits your input source in the menus, or press the Resize button on the remote to cycle through the options. See page 17.
•Select a specific Color Space. See page 22.
•Select a different Video Standard. Auto tries to determine the standard of the incoming video. Select a different standard if necessary. See page 23.
•Make sure your DVD player is set for a 16:9 television. See your DVD player’s user’s guide for instructions.
