Nº40 Media Console Menu System
• 16:9 Bottom
The last line of text is just above the bottom of a wide screen
16:9 television screen when in its linear letterbox mode; this
amounts to a “safe picture area” for this application that
ensures you can read all the text, no matter how you set the
aspect ratio of your television.
• 4:3 Bottom
The last line of text is just above the bottom of a standard 4:3
television screen, just inside the “safe picture area.”
•No display
No on-screen messages will be displayed at all, which is proba-
bly the best choice for record zone applications.
Select the option that makes the most sense in your system, given
the other products’ on-screen displays that may be competing for
screen real estate. The goal is to make sure you can always see the
information you want to see from the Nº40, while minimizing the
chances of obscuring information from other components.
Message Backdrop On-screen messages can be presented in either of two ways:
• None – using white message text on a transparent background,
to maximize the visible video “behind” the message.
• Solid – using white message text on a solid background (gray in
the main zone, black on RZones) for maximum contrast and
legibility.
