• CC On Mute: To have the PD520 show captions when the audio output is
muted, set this option to Yes.
Letterbox Mode: Select Letterbox Mode from
the Setup menu to change the zoom factor
that takes effect when you select the Letterbox
aspect ratio (refer to Table 4-1).
When you select Letterbox, the image is
enlarged (zoomed in) by a factor of
approximately 1.33.
When you select Cinema Fill, the zoom factor is
approximately 1.77 (1.33 x 1.33).
Input Selection: Input 1 and Input 2 have both S-Video and Composite video
connectors. Input 3 and Input 4 have both Component and Composite video
connectors. To specify which connection type you are using – or to switch from
one to the other if equipment is connected to both – select Input Selection from
the Setup menu and press ENTER.
The default setting for all four AV inputs is Automatic. With this setting, the PD520
searches for an active source on both connectors and displays the first one it
detects. If equipment is connected to both, Automatic input selection triggers a
switch when a source component is disconnected or powered off.
Monitor Out: If you have equipment connected to the MONITOR OUT, select
Monitor Out from the Setup menu to route either the main or PIP audio/video
signals to that output.
Overscan (not available with PC signals): Overscan pushes the outside edge of
the active picture area of the video signal out beyond the edge of the display
area.
Some television programs are produced based on the assumption that older
television sets may not display the outer edges of the broadcast picture area.
Overscan effectively trims away these inactive, outer edges and enlarges the
remaining portion of the image to fill the display area.
Use the on-screen slidebars to set the desired amount of horizontal and vertical
overscan, as well as horizontal and vertical image shift.
These settings only affect 480i source material. For HDTV, DVDs and other video
sources, Overscan is generally not necessary or desirable.
Input Label: You can give each PD520 input a descriptive name. To do this,
select Input Label from the Setup menu and choose one from the list.
HDMI Audio: If the HDMI source is a PC or other device that does not support
audio output via HDMI, set HDMI Audio to PC.
If the source does support audio output via HDMI, set this option to HDMI to
route the HDMI (digital) audio signal to the speakers when HDMI1 or HDMI2 is
selected.
