The following items can be adapted:
Picture settings
TV Shape
With TV Shape you can adjust the output of your DVD
Recorder to optimally fit your TV screen. You can
choose:
-
16:9 if you have a wide screen (16:9) TV set.
- 4:3 if you have a regular (4:3) TV set. In this case you
can also choose between:
- Letterbox: for a ‘wide-screen’ picture with black
bars at the top and bottom,
-
Pan Scan: for a full-height picture with the sides
trimmed. If a disc has Pan Scan, the picture then
moves (pans) horizontally to keep the main action
on the screen.
Black level shift (NTSC only)
Adapts the colour dynamics to obtain richer contrasts.
Select ‘
On’or ‘Off’.
Video shift
Factory setting is such that the video will be centered on
your screen. Use this setting to adjust the position of
the picture on your TV set by scrolling it to the left or
right.
SCART Video
Factory setting is RGB. Select ‘ S-video’(Y/C) via
SCART
when connecting to an S-VHS recorder.
Sound settings
Digital output
Factory setting ‘
All’ means that both coaxial and optical
outputs are switched on, and that Dolby Digital Multi-
channel is fed to the outputs as such MPEG audio is
converted to PCM. If your equipment doesn’t include a
digital Multi-channel decoder, set the digital output to
‘
PCM only’ (Pulse Code Modulation). Both coaxial and
optical outputs are then switched on, and Dolby Digital
and MPEG audio are converted to PCM. If you are not
connecting equipment with a digital input, change the
setting to ‘
Off’.
Analogue output
Select ‘ Stereo’, ‘Surround’ or ‘3D Sound’. Factory
setting is Stereo.
