Defining your settings in the MXO Preference pane
Specifying your Presentation mode settings
To specify your Presentation mode settings on Matrox MXO:
1From the Apple menu, click System Preferenc es, and then click the
Matrox MXO icon.
2Click the Presentation tab.
3Under Video Output Control, from the Ou tput desktop as menu, select
the video standard in which you want your desktop to be encoded and routed
to the MXO video outputs, such as for display on a video monitor or
recording to a VTR. If the resolution of your desktop is larger than the
standard you select, MXO will scale the video output accordingly. If your
desktop resolution is smaller, the video output will be centered.
¦NoteFor best results, you should set your Matrox MXO desktop resolution
(using Displays in the System Preferences pane) to a (stretched) preset
and make sure your output video standard and desktop resolution are close in
size. For example, if you want to output your desktop as NTSC (720×486) -
29.97 fps, you should set your desktop resolution to 800×600 (stretched).
