Glossary
N
Non-interlaced
See Interlaced/non-interlaced.
O
OSD (On Screen Display)
The feature that allows an end user to adjust screen performance and parameters of monitors
directly through an on-screen instruction window. See CustoMax in CrystalClear section.
Overscan
The practice in which areas without useful video information are scanned outside the visible screen
area in order to make maximum use of the screen for display of active video information. This
practice is occasionally necessary because some video cards generate a video pattern that is
smaller than the visible screen area, resulting in an image that is smaller (and less legible) than it
needs to be.
