T+A Elektroakustik K1 AV user manual Progressive, Picture Setting, Component, Important note

PROGRESSIVE

The ‘Progressive’ menu point can only be altered if you have set the Component output to ’YUV’ (see menu point ‘Component’).

In progressive scan mode the machine generates full- frame images from the ‘half-frames’ stored on the DVD; this reduces picture flicker, and therefore gives improved picture reproduction with monitors and TV screens which are capable of reproducing progressive images. Progressive pictures are generated in the form of a YUV component signal, so the K1 AV must be connected to the YUV input of your monitor or screen in order to be able to use progressive scan.

Important note:

Before you activate progressive scan, please ensure that your video monitor or television set supports this mode of operation (read the operating instructions if you are not sure)!

If the monitor is not designed for progressive scan, the result will be picture interference, or even no picture at all. If a problem arises, please switch back to normal operation immediately.

Off

Disables the progressive scan function.

On

Activates the progressive scan function.

PICTURE SETTING

In the Picture Setting menu you can adjust the picture reproduction to suit your personal preference.

You can either select one of the pre-defined picture settings, or move to the menu point ‘Personal’ and set your preferred settings for brightness, contrast etc.

COMPONENT

This menu point enables you to toggle the output of the video signal between RGB and YPbPr (YUV).

• If the device is set to YUV, you may find that particular televisions are not synchronised correctly with the DVD player via the Scart connection.

•If you own a TV screen featuring a YUV input with Cinch sockets, you will need a suitable adaptor (SCART → YUV); they are readily available from specialist dealers.

•Many devices do not feature a YUV-capable SCART input, but have three separate Cinch sockets for Y, U and V. In this case please a suitable SCART / YUV adaptor, available from electrical accessory shops.
