54 Runco VX-33i Installation/Operation Manual
PRELIMINARY
Overscan: Image Overscan pushes the outside edge of the active picture area of the
video signal out beyond the edge of the display area.
Some television programs are produced based on the assumption that older television
sets may not display the outer edges of the broadcast picture area. Overscan effectively
trims away these inactive, outer edges and enlarges the remaining portion of the image to
fill the display area.
Select from 1% to 10% of Overscan, as desired.
For HDTV, DVDs and other video sources, Overscan is generally not necessary or
desirable.
Phase: Adjust the phase if the image from an RGB or Component source shows shimmer
or “noise.” Pixel phase adjusts the phase of the pixel sampling clock relative to the
incoming signal. The effect of this control is similar to that of a tracking control on a VCR.
For best results, use a good test pattern such as a smooth gray consisting of a clear
pattern of black and white pixels, or a similar “half on, half off” graphic image. (You may
find that you can stabilize the image at more than one point. Use either setting in this
case.)
Memory Presets For each input, the VX-33i lets you save image quality settings as presets that you can
recall at a later time. You can create up to four presets per input and resolution. Use the
ISF Presets menu to recall saved image presets, or to save image settings in the
“Custom 1” or “THX” memory location. The currently-selected preset is indicated by a
7” to its left; in the example shown here, ISF Night is selected.
You should save changes to any of the following settings to a preset; otherwise they will
be lost when a new input source or resolution is selected:
•Brightness
•Contrast
Color saturation
•Tint
• Sharpness
To reset the Custom 1 and THX image presets to their factory defaults, select Factory
Default and press ENTER or SELECT.
Information Select Information from the Main Menu to display information about the current input
signal (resolution, frequency, type et cetera) and installed firmware versions. Should you
