Customizing this unit (MANUAL SETUP)

Notes

This unit does not convert 480 line video signals and 576 line video signals interchangeably.

The analog component video signals with 480i (NTSC)/576i (PAL) of resolution are converted into the S-video or composite video signals and output at the S VIDEO MONITOR OUT and VIDEO MONITOR OUT jacks.

The converted video signals are only output at the MONITOR OUT jacks. When recording a video source, you must make the same type of video connections between each component.

When composite video or S-video signals from a VCR are converted into component video signals, the picture quality may suffer depending on your VCR.

Unconventional signals input at the composite video or S-video jacks cannot be converted or may be output abnormally. In such cases, set “VIDEO CONV.” to “OFF”.

HDMI resolution HDMI RES.

Use this feature to activate or deactivate the HDMI up- scaling of the analog video signals input at the VIDEO, S VIDEO and COMPONENT VIDEO jacks so that the up- scaled video signals are output at the HDMI OUT jack. This unit up-scales the video signals as follows:

480i (NTSC)/576i (PAL) 480p/576p, 1080i, 720p, or 1080p

480p/576p 1080i, 720p, or 1080p

Notes

This unit does not up-scale the analog component video signals with 720p or 1080i of resolution.

The “HDMI RES.” parameter appears only when you set “VIDEO CONV.” to “ON”.

If you connect your video monitor via HDMI connection, this unit automatically detects the available video signal resolution of the video monitor, and an asterisk (*) appears on the left of the available video signal resolution(s).

If this unit cannot detect the available video signal resolution(s) of the connected video monitor, set “MON. CHK” (see page 97) to “SKIP” and then set “HDMI RES.” again.

This unit does not convert between 480 line video signals and 576 line video signals.

Notes

When “HDMI RES.” is set to “THROUGH”, you cannot make any adjustments to “HDMI ASPECT”.

If the aspect ratio of the input video source is other than 4:3, this unit automatically ignores the setting of “HDMI ASPECT”.

When “HDMI ASPECT” is set to “SMART”, the video images of the edge of the video monitor are rather stretched.

When the video signals are input at HDMI IN jacks or the signals are input with 720p, 1080i or 1080p of resolution, the setting of “HDMI ASPECT” does not affect the video signals output at the HDMI OUT jack.
