HDMI Up-Scaling

•Select “Off” to deactivate the video conversion as well as the HDMI up-conversion of the analog video signals.

•Select “On” to activate the video conversion as well as the HDMI up-conversion of the analog video signals.

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 to 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 to component video signals, the picture quality may suffer depending on your VCR.

•Even when “Conversion” is set to “On”, HDMI digital signals are not converted to analog video signals.

•If “Conversion” is set to “Off”, the “Component I/P” and “HDMI Up-Scaling” features are deactivated.

•Set “Conversion” to “On” to display the short message display.

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

•When non-standard video signals (such as video signals from a game console) are input, this unit may not convert the signals even if you “Conversion” to “On”.

•When the analog component video signals with 480p of resolution are input at the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks and the video monitor is connected to the VIDEO MONITOR OUT or S VIDEO MONITOR OUT jack of this unit, the GUI screen is not displayed on the video monitor.

■Component I/P

(Component interlace/progressive

conversion)

Use this feature to activate or deactivate the analog interlace/progressive conversion of the analog video signals input at the composite video, S-video and component video jacks so that the analog video signals deinterlaced from 480i (NTSC)/576i (PAL) to 480p/576p are output at the COMPONENT MONITOR OUT jacks. Choices: Off, On

•This menu item is not available and hence not visible in the GUI screen if “Conversion” is set to “Off”.

•If your video monitor does not support analog video signals with 480p/576p of resolution, the GUI screen may not be displayed on your video monitor when “Component I/P” is set to “On”. Use “V-RESET” in “ADVANCED SETUP” to set the “Component I/P” parameter to the factory preset setting (see page 136).

■HDMI Up-Scaling (HDMI up-scaling)

Use this feature to activate or deactivate the HDMI up- conversion of the analog video signals input at the composite video, S-video and component video jacks so that the up-scaled analog video signals are output at the HDMI OUT jack.

This unit up-scales the analog video signals as follows:

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

720p

•480p/576p → 1080i or 720p

Choices: Through, 480p (or 576p), 1080i, 720p
