Use this menu to adjust the video parameters.
Use the “VIDEO” in “INITIALIZE” to set the parameters in “Manual Setup
(Video)” (except “Short Message” and “On Screen”) to the factory presets
(see page 144).
■ Conversion (Video conversion)
Use this feature to activate or deactivate the video scaling as well as
the HDMI up-conversion of the analog video signals input at the
VIDEO, S VIDEO, and COMPONENT VIDEO jacks.
• For optimal video performance, THX Ltd. recommends that you set
“Conversion” to “Off” to allow video signals to pass through the system
without processing (e.g., video signals input at the COMPONENT VIDEO
jacks are output at the COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT jacks
without any processing).
• 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 into
component video signals, the picture quality may suffer depending on your
VCR.
• If “Conversion” is set to “Off”, the “Component I/P”, “HDMI Resolution”,
“HDMI Processing”, “HDMI Aspect”, and “Short Message” features are
deactivated.
• Set “Conversion” to “On” to display the short message.
• 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 into the S-video or composite video signals and
output at the S VIDEO MONITOR OUT and VIDEO MONITOR OUT
jacks.
• Even when “Conversion” is set to “On”, HDMI digital signals are not
converted to analog video signals.
• Unconventional signals input at the 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 video
game console) are input, this unit does not display short messages in the
video monitor even if “Conversion” is set to “On”.
• When the analog component video signals with 480p/576p 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 in the video monitor.
■ HDMI Processing (HDMI video processing)
Use this feature to select whether this unit processes the video
signals input at the HDMI IN jacks.
■ 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.
• 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”. In such a case, set
“INITIALIZE” in “Advanced setup” parameter to “VIDEO” (see
page 144).
• When you set “HDMI Processing” to “On”, you may not set “Component
I/P” in some cases.
■ HDMI Resolution
(HDMI video signal resolution)
Use this feature to activate or deactivate the HDMI up-scaling of the
analog and HDMI video signals input at the composite video, S-
video and component video and HDMI IN jacks so that the up-
scaled video signals are output at the HDMI OUT jacks.
This unit up-scales the analog video signals as follows:
• 480i (NTSC)/576i (PAL)
→ 480p/576p, 1080i, 720p, or
1080p
• 480p/576p
→ 1080i, 720p, or 1080p
• 1080i
→ 480p/576p, 720p, 1080p
• 720p
→ 480p/576p, 1080i, 1080p
The input video signals may be down-scaled depending on the setting of
“HDMI Resolution”.
