If you have a PAL television, you have to set the TV Type option
to PAL. In this case, if you switch to a service of the NTSC stan-
dard, though it is unlikely to happen, the digital receiver will
display the pictures converted into the PAL standard. How-
ever, it is inevitable to lose a little picture quality. Likewise, the
contrary case brings about the same result.
The best thing is to watch PAL services with a PAL television
and to watch NTSC services with a NTSC television. However,
a multi television set is able to process both of them. So if you
have a multi television set, you should set the TV Type option
to Multi. Then the digital receiver will present pictures without
standard conversion.
Through the TV SCART connector, the digital receiver is able
to output video in various colour models. If you have the
digital receiver linked to your television via this connector,
you should set the Video Output option to your desired colour
model. If you have connected via the RCA connector labeled
VIDEO on the back panel, you do not have to set this option
because the digital receiver outputs CVBS video through the
RCA connector independently of the SCART connector.
In general, it is known that the RGB colour model provides the
best video quality with little difference from the YUV colour
model but the CVBS colour model does the least. So RGB
would be the most desirable option for this.
You can have the digital receiver linked to your video cassette
recorder or such an appliance via the VCR SCART connector. In
this case, the digital receiver will operate differently depending
on the setting of the VCR Scart Type option. If the option is
set to Standard, the digital receiver will pass the video from
the video cassette recorder to your television when it starts
