• If you make a setting here that is incompatible with
your TV, the TV may not display any picture at all. If
this happens either switch everything off and
reconnect to the TV using either the supplied video
cable, or an S-video cable (see
Using the S-video or
component video output on page 12 for more on this),
or reset the recorder (see Resetting the recorder on
page 70 for how to do this).
• Video – Compatible with all TVs, but lowest quality of
the three AV settings.
• S-Video – Almost the same quality as RGB, but can
give better results if you are using a long SCART
cable.
• RGB – If your TV is compatible, this setting gives the
best picture quality.
Note
• When set to RGB, the Component Video setting has
no effect.
