6.14 Video input output
For every input source, the user must select the correct video input format.
Furthermore, the output format to the TV/Projector must be chosen as either RGB or
Component.
The DVD component input can be selected as pass-through with over 100MHz
bandwidth. This is suitable for e.g. progressive DVD signals. See below table for
bandwidth consumption:
NTSC interlaced: 6 MHz
NTSC progressive: 12 MHz
PAL interlaced: 7 MHz
PAL progressive: 14MHz
In progressive pass-through mode, no mixed mode video (e.g. volume setting) will
be displayed on the screen. Also Composite video and S-Video outputs are muted.
6.15 Video miscellaneous
To activate the RGB input in Scart connectors, some TV-sets require a separate
“activate” signal. Tape 1 composite input can be reassigned to perform this Scart
RGB activation.
For Scart connection, use these five signals:
- RGB out
-
Tape1 Composite out
-
Scart RGB activator signal (tape 1 composite in)
Now choose RGB out in the video-input-output menu. Thule Audio can supply a
high-quality 5-pole RCA Phono-to-Scart cable.
Normally, the RGB output signal is without sync included, and the Composite sync
can therefore be taken from the Tape1 out. Some projectors accept sync included in
the RGB signal – in these cases, no extra sync signal is required.
Extended sharpness will shape the contours even further by accelerating the
luminance transitions.
In Noise Reduction mode, very low-level video signals will be interpreted as noise
and will be subtracted from the original signal. Consequently, some sharpness and
details can be lost, so please use Noise reduction with consideration, e.g. on noisy
antenna signals. Do not use noise reduction on high-quality signal sources like DVD
or cable TV video, since the signals thereby may become degraded.
