3.2.1 Televisionstandard
Thedigital receiver supports two types of television standard.
One is the PAL standard, and the other is the NTSC stan-
dard. PAL was adopted in European countries while NTSC
isadopted in USA, Canada, Mexico and so forth.
Ifyou have a PAL television, you have to set the TV Type op-
tion to PAL.In this case, if a service is broadcasted in NTSC
standard,the digital receiver converts it into the PAL standard
for your PAL television. However, its quality would some-
whatfall. Theopposite case brings about the same result.
Thebest thing is to watch PAL services with a PAL television
and to watch NTSC services with a NTSC television. How-
ever, the multi television set is able to processboth of them.
So if you have an multi television set, set the TV Type op-
tionto Multi. With this option, the digital receiver will output
them without standard conversion. This setting is most rec-
ommended especially if you are not surewhat standard tele-
visionyou have.
3.2.2 Color model
Throughthe TV SCART connector, the digital receiver is able
tooutput video in various color models. If you have the digi-
tal receiverlinked to your television from this connector, you
shouldset the Video Output option to your desired color model.
Ifyou have connected them by RCA connector at which VIDEO
readson the back panel of the digital receiver, you do not have
to set this option because the digital receiver outputs CVBS
videothrough RCA connector independent of SCART connec-
tor.
It is known in general that the RGB color model providesthe
best video quality with little difference from the YUV color
modelbut the CVBS color model does the least. SoRGB would
bemost desirable for this option.
