The Optoma HD3000 is a fully-featured, all digital, video processing Scaler Box designed to create the best image quality. As home theater technology advances, the role of the Scaler Box has evolved as an integral component in the home theater. The HD3000 provides the best in source content switching, image de-interlacing, image scaling, and color management all in one easy to use package! Optoma designed the HD3000 to be the center of you home theater entertainment center. By extensively using HDMI connections as well as a number of other industry standard inputs, all content sources are easily routed through the HD3000. With unparalleled scaling and image de-interlacing, the HD3000 goes well beyond the scope of other traditional scaler boxes. Each video source can be fine tuned to provide the best combination for your viewing enjoyment.

Recommendations

To unleash the power of the HD3000, it is best to input video content in its original form without any processing. This will utilize the full capabilities of the HD3000 for de-interlacing, scaling and image enhancement. As an example, if a user has an HDMI DVD player capable of outputting the video signal in a 480i/576i digital format, we recommend feeding it directly to the HD3000 without any processing by the DVD player. This will provide the HD3000 with the original digital video stream and allow the HD3000 to fully unleash its studio grade video processing. In general, we recommend the following: If possible, use digital output (DVD, D-VHS, DTV setup box, etc). If there is no digital output, use the component output terminals (YPbPr) with short and high-quality components cables. If you are unsure of the quality of the internal de-interlacing or scaler of your video source, let the HD3000 do the processing by connecting it to the interlaced component output. If possible, leave out any extra video processing in your video source (DVD, D-VHS, and HDTV STB). Some HDTV STB models have scaling conversion that will output 1080i from a 720p format. Try to output 1080i in its native signal format and let HD3000 perform deinterlacing and scaling. Not all HDMI DVD players have a digital interlaced output (480i/576i). For these products, it is suggested that users try 480p/576p first, followed by 720p and 1080i. After viewing the full range of output resolutions, the user can then judge which is the best image quality and set the HD3000 for that resolution. Many high-end analog output DVD players also come with high quality DAC with 12 or 14 bits of processing. Again, the users should try setting their 480i/576i output to the HD3000 first. The HD3000 has BNC connectors for component video input. If the user plans to use analog component to connect to their video source, for the best image quality, it is recommend using the BNC connectors. For connecting to a Laser Disc player or S-VHS deck, we suggest using S-Video output to connect to the HD3000. It is best to have a separate power outlet for audio and video equipment.

Connecting HD3000 to AV Reciever
For maximum flexibility when integrating into existing entertainment systems, the HD3000 Video Scaler is equipped with two HDMI outputs. One output sends the signal directly to the display and the second output sends the signal to an HDMI equipped AV receiver. There are three ways to connect the HDMI output from the HD3000 Video Scaler.
Option 1 Using the HD3000 Video Scaler as an audio/video source selector connecting to a HDMI equipped AV receiver for audio. If you have an HDMI equipped AV receiver and wish to send the audio signal to the receiver, but utilize the HD3000 as the HDMI source selector: 1) Connect the video sources to the HD3000. 2) Connect a HDMI cable to the To AV Receiver port on the back of the HD3000 to your AV receiver. This will allow the audio signal to be decoded by the AV receiver. 3) Connect a second HDMI cable to the HDMI output of the AV receiver to the From AV Receiver on the back of the HD3000. 4) Finally, connect a HDMI cable to the To Display on the back of the HD3000 to your display.

Option 2 Using HD3000 as video source selector: This option is intended for user who wants to hook up their audio by optical or analog means instead of through HDMI. 1) Connect the video sources to the HD3000. 2) Connect the audio out of the video sources directly to your receiver. 3) Attach the short HDMI cable that comes standard with the unit to the To AV Receiver port on the back of the HD 3000. Connect the other end to the From AV Receiver port on the back of the HD3000. This will allow the video signal to be properly managed. 4) Finally, connect a HDMI cable to the To Display on the back of the HD3000 to your display.
Option 3 If you have a single HDMI source, you can hook the Video source directly up to the From AV Receiver port on the back of the HD3000. Connect a second HDMI cable to the To Display port on the back of the HD3000 and attach the other end to your Plasma TV or Projector display system. This configuration will provide the channels of audio and high resolution video for your display.
Establishing Initial Output Resolution
From the factory, the HD3000 is shipped with the default output resolution of 1280x720, progressive scan, commonly knows as 720p. This is a resolution format commonly supported by many high definition digital displays. If your display is not compatible with 720p resolution, the HD3000 offers an easy way to set the correct output signals that match your display. Prior to connecting the HD3000 to a display, please determine the resolution capabilities of your Display. The following are the resolutions and frequencies the HD3000 can output: 1280x720p 50/60/72 Hz (default 60Hz) 1024x768p 50/60/72 Hz (Native resolution for some 16x9 Plasma TVs) 1280x768p 50/60/72 Hz (Native resolution for LCD TV and plasma TV) 1366x768p 50/60 Hz (Native resolution for 16x9 plasma TV) 1920x1080p 48/50/60 Hz
If possible, select the native resolution of your display as the output resolution of the HD3000.
To Change the Output Resolution: If your display native resolution is not HD3000s default 720p, 1280x720, change the resolution as follows: Connect HD3000 to your display (see section 2.3) and power on the HD3000 and your display. Option 1 If your display is capable of 1280x720, the display will lock on to the output signal from the HD3000. Press the menu button on the remote control and use the OSD (On Screen Display) to change to your desired native display resolution. All other setups will be done with the remote control, via the Menu button. (See the Operation & Control section of this manual.) Option 2 If your display cannot lock on to 720p, you will not be able to utilize the OSD to change the initial settings. In this case, use the front panel control buttons, and press the h key. This will change the resolution output from the HD3000. Press the button until you find a mode that works with your display. Please wait a few seconds after pressing the h button key to allow for the HD3000 and the display to synchronize. Once a mode that works with your display is found use the OSD to select your desired resolution.

HD3000 was designed to provide maximum flexibility and image configuration options. Each video input signal has its own memory to store adjustment parameters. Every HD input of the HD3000 has 4 memory slots which can be calibrated and stored independently. For example a single HDMI input on the HD3000 could be calibrated for a 480i, 576i, 720P and 1080i. Each signal can be fine tuned according to its own characteristics and according to the users own preferences.
