Video Standard Option
For all but the more unusual video standards available in the world, the projector
automatically detects the incoming horizontal and vertical frequencies and sets the
projector's processing of this signal to the corresponding standard. The current video
standard name appears in the Video Options submenu, and includes an "A" if it has been
auto-detected. Press
the projector-any that are disabled have frequency characteristics that differ from those of
the incoming signal. Selecting a specific standard forces the projector to process the signal
according to this standard.
NOTE: Best results are obtained with defined channels. Otherwise, switching from one video source to
another can sometimes cause slight disturbances in the display, indicating that the Auto function is
struggling. Recover by briefly selecting a different video standard, then going back.

NOTE: Generally, use "Auto" for all instances EXCEPT: 1) a poor quality input signal or 2) a black-and-
white video signal. In order to detect and display such signals, select the relevant standard from the
list.
Input Video Black
This control compensates for incoming elevated black levels
present in certain video signals, and ensures that blacks in the
display are neither crushed (i.e., where dark grays appear black)
nor excessively elevated (i.e., where blacks appear dark gray).
By default, the projector automatically determines the best setting according to the type of incoming video
signal:
•
- Used for DVD output with "enhanced black", SECAM, most PAL standards, and Japanese NTSC.
0 IRE
•
- Used for most NTSC video signals.
7.5 IRE
For some types of video, you can override the setting. The control is disabled for other types of video (and all
graphics sources). Generally, if black appears crushed when brightness = 50, choose "0 IRE". If black appears
excessively elevated, use "7.5 IRE".
Color
This slidebar adjusts the color saturation level, i.e. the amount of color in a video image. Lower settings
produce less saturated colors. For example, a setting of "0" produces a black and white image. If the color level
is too high, colors will be overpowering and unrealistic.
