The Scaler setup menu is displayed:
• Press A or V to highlight the setting you want to change, and press
Enter.
The Scaler mode options are explained in the following table:
Description
Converts 480i (NTSC) to 480p and 576i (PAL) to 576p.
Upconverts to High Defi nition standard 720p progressive video.
Upconverts to High Defi nition standard 1080i interlaced video.
Automatically selects the best resolution for the display device
connected to the HDMI connector.
The Gamma correction affects the grey scale, and can be set to 1.0, 0.8,
0.9, or 1.1. If the picture has poor detail in the dark areas choose a
Gamma correction below 1.0. If the picture has poor detail in the light
areas choose a Gamma correction greater than 1.0.
The Sharpness can be set to Off, Low, Medium, or High. It adds edge
detail, but can cause picture artefacts.
Gamma correction and Sharpness only affect the analogue outputs.
Display aspect allows you to perform aspect ratio conversion on the
scaled outputs; ie progressive analogue or HDMI. Set Display aspect to
the shape of your screen, or Native to disable aspect ratio conversion.
Component output allows you to choose what is available on the
component output socket. Standard Defi nition gives an SD interlaced
component signal. Scaled gives a deinterlaced signal; for this option the
Scaler mode should be set to Deinterlace.
