Runco VX-33i Installation/Operation Manual 49
PRELIMINARY

Picture Use the controls in the Picture Menu to calibrate your VX-33i for optimum picture quality.

The VX-33i has been designed to incorporate setup and calibration standards established

by the Imaging Science Foundation (ISF). The ISF has developed carefully crafted,

industry-recognized standards for optimal video performance and has implemented a

training program for technicians and installers to use these standards to obtain optimal

picture quality from Runco video display devices. Accordingly, Runco recommends that

setup and calibration be performed by an ISF certified installation technician.

All signal types require separate processing. Therefore, you need to calibrate each input

separately.

Cinema CINEMA Select Cinema to view 2.35
source material in its native
aspect ratio.
With a 16:9 screen and a
non-CineWide projector (no
anamorphic lens), the upper and
lower portions of the screen are
masked, but the geometry of the
active image area is unchanged.
With a 2.35:1 screen and a
CineWide-equipped projector,
the VX-33i scales the 2.35:1
image so that the active image
area fills the 16:9 chip surface,
eliminating the black bars. The
secondary, anamorphic lens
then restores the proper
geometry to the 2.35:1 image.
Virtual Cinema VCINE A 16:9 image is scaled
NON-linearly (more on the sides
than in the center) to fit a 2.35:1
screen.
Virtual Cinema is available only
on the VX-33i/CineWide.
