A/V Setting Descriptions: Video

Video Settings

Contrast provides a slider to adjust the white-toblack level. Low contrast shows a variety of shades in darker images, while high contrast shows darker images more uniformly black and makes colors appear more vibrant. Brightness provides a slider to adjust the overall brightness of the picture. Sharpness provides a slider to adjust the detail and clarity. Color provides a slider to adjust the color intensity. Tint provides a slider to adjust the proportion of red to green. Color Temp (Color Temperature) allows you to adjust how white images are displayed. Your choices are: Low 6500K or Low (for DTV): White images will have a warm cast to them. This adjustment is an average and can vary due to ambient room lighting, video scene brightness and the TVs age. The Low 6500K represents the 6500K industry standard for NTSC (nonDTV) pictures. Medium: White images will be balanced between the Low (warm) and High (cool) settings. High: White images will have a cool cast to them. This setting may provide the most realistic picture under bright lighting. Video Noise use reduction to reduce minor noise (graininess) in the broadcast received on Ant-A and Ant-B or Inputs 1-5 and Component 1 and 2. Use standard with good quality signals. Image Type maximizes the original camera media: Video or Film. Video media uses a video camera and is created at 30 frames per second. Film media uses a film camera and is created at 24 frames per second. Examples of Video media are live TV broadcast such as news, special events, or video taped programs. Examples of film media are motion pictures, made-for-TV movies, and many prime time programs. Filmed media is converted by the broadcaster or home video company to 30 frames per second to match TV or video standards. This conversion can leave subtle picture artifacts or conversion errors. Setting the Image Type to Film can reduce the picture artifacts and improve the picture quality, when viewing a movie from a 480i device such as a VCR, standard DVD or antenna. Image Type is not effective for progressive scan (480p) devices, and high definition signals. Velocity Scanning Modulation (VSM) Sharpness When turned On, selected image outlines are emphasized, resulting in sharper images. The default is On. When turned Off, the velocity scanning modulation function is prevented.

Connection: Helpful Hints
Q My VCR (or other device) does not have two sets of stereo audio outputs; how can I connect this devices audio to both the TV and the A/V Receiver?
A. There are two solutions:
1. Connect the single set of stereo audio outputs to the TV only. Use the Edit NetCommand feature to Change the setup of this device. In the Connection screen part of Change make sure both audio and video for the TV input are check marked and neither the audio or the video for the AVR input are check marked. This will allow the NetCommand system to use the TV outputs to transfer the devices audio to the A/V Receiver. See Edit NetCommand Setup. 2. Use RCA type Y splitter cables to split the devices audio output to be connected to both the TV and the A/V Receiver. Q. Since I have both the TV monitor stereo audio output and TV digital audio output connected to the same input designation on my A/V Receiver, how do I switch between analog audio and digital audio?
A. This depends on the individual A/V Receiver. Some A/V Receivers will switch automatically to digital when a digital audio signal is supplied so you do not need to do anything. Other A/V Receivers can be manually switched by remote control, for these types of A/V Receivers, see the NetCommand Guide Appendix for NetCommand control of this features. Some A/V Receivers will require that you make this change on the front panel of the A/V Receiver.
Q. The front panel of my A/V Receiver is too tall or too convex for the IR emitter signal to reach the remote control sensor of the A/V Receiver. What can I do?
A. There are several possible solutions.
1. Mount the IR Emitter on the top, front edge of the A/V Receiver over the remote control sensor. Use tape to secure it in place. 2. Mount the IR Emitter on the underside of the self above the A/V Receiver (if the A/V Receiver is in a cabinet). Use double sided tape to secure it in place. 3. Some small stick-on emitters from other manufacturers may be compatible with the IR Emitter Home Theater jacks, these may be used instead of the supplied IR Emitters. Q. I occasionally need to see the menu from my A/V Receiver, how can I connect it to the TV for this purpose? A. You can connect the video output of the A/V Receiver to an unused input on the TV. Then use the Edit NetCommand to Add this as an Other device, not an A/V Receiver. On the Connection, screen indicate which TV input was used and check mark the video box. Make sure the TV input audio box and both the audio and video boxes for the AVR input are not check marked. You should also name this device so you can easily identify it on the Device Selection Menu. Q. I have a high definition receiver I would like to connect and it also has an S-video output I would like to be able use as well. Is there are way to connect this receiver both ways? A. Yes, this item will appear twice in the Device Selection Menu. Just add this unit twice, once using the Inp-DTV and once using one of the S-video inputs. Make sure you indicate that this is the same manufacturer for both. We suggest that you connect stereo audio outputs with the S-video to the TV so that you do not need to use two inputs on the A/V Receiver. If this is a NetCommand compatible HDTV receiver that HD or SD outputs can be switched by remote control, see the NetCommand Guide Appendix for NetCommand control of this feature.
