Manual Setup (Video) Use this menu to adjust the video parameters. Note Use the "VIDEO" in "INITIALIZE" to set the parameters in "Manual Setup (Video)" (except "Short Message" and "On Screen") to the factory presets (see page 144). ■ Conversion (Video conversion) Use this feature to activate or deactivate the video scaling as well as the HDMI up-conversion of the analog video signals input at the VIDEO, S VIDEO, and COMPONENT VIDEO jacks. Choice Functions On Converts composite, S-video, and component video signals interchangeably and up-converts composite, S- video, and component video signals to HDMI video signals. Off Does not convert any signals. Notes • For optimal video performance, THX Ltd. recommends that you set "Conversion" to "Off" to allow video signals to pass through the system without processing (e.g., video signals input at the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks are output at the COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT jacks without any processing). • The converted video signals are only output at the MONITOR OUT jacks. When recording a video source, you must make the same type of video connections between each component. • When composite video or S-video signals from a VCR are converted into component video signals, the picture quality may suffer depending on your VCR. • If "Conversion" is set to "Off", the "Component I/P", "HDMI Resolution", "HDMI Processing", "HDMI Aspect", and "Short Message" features are deactivated. • Set "Conversion" to "On" to display the short message. • This unit does not convert 480 line video signals and 576 line video signals interchangeably. • The analog component video signals with 480i (NTSC)/576i (PAL) of resolution are converted into the S-video or composite video signals and output at the S VIDEO MONITOR OUT and VIDEO MONITOR OUT jacks. • Even when "Conversion" is set to "On", HDMI digital signals are not converted to analog video signals. • Unconventional signals input at the VIDEO or S VIDEO jacks cannot be converted or may be output abnormally. In such cases, set "Conversion" to "Off". • When non-standard video signals (such as video signals from a video game console) are input, this unit does not display short messages in the video monitor even if "Conversion" is set to "On". • When the analog component video signals with 480p/576p of resolution are input at the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks and the video monitor is connected to the VIDEO MONITOR OUT or S VIDEO MONITOR OUT jack of this unit, the GUI screen is not displayed in the video monitor. Graphical user interface (GUI) menu ■ HDMI Processing (HDMI video processing) Use this feature to select whether this unit processes the video signals input at the HDMI IN jacks. Choice Off On Functions Select this setting when you do not want this unit to process the video signals input at the HDMI IN jacks even if "Conversion" is set to "On". Select this setting when you want this unit to process the video signals input at the HDMI IN jacks when "Conversion" is set to "On". ■ Component I/P (Component interlace/ progressive conversion) Use this feature to activate or deactivate the analog interlace/ progressive conversion of the analog video signals input at the composite video, S-video and component video jacks so that the analog video signals deinterlaced from 480i (NTSC)/576i (PAL) to 480p/576p are output at the COMPONENT MONITOR OUT jacks. Choice On Off Functions Activates the analog interlace/progressive up-conversion of the analog video signals. Deactivates the analog interlace/progressive upconversion of the analog video signals. Notes • If your video monitor does not support analog video signals with 480p/ 576p of resolution, the GUI screen may not be displayed on your video monitor when "Component I/P" is set to "On". In such a case, set "INITIALIZE" in "Advanced setup" parameter to "VIDEO" (see page 144). • When you set "HDMI Processing" to "On", you may not set "Component I/P" in some cases. ■ HDMI Resolution (HDMI video signal resolution) Use this feature to activate or deactivate the HDMI up-scaling of the analog and HDMI video signals input at the composite video, Svideo and component video and HDMI IN jacks so that the upscaled video signals are output at the HDMI OUT jacks. This unit up-scales the analog video signals as follows: • 480i (NTSC)/576i (PAL) → 480p/576p, 1080i, 720p, or 1080p • 480p/576p → 1080i, 720p, or 1080p • 1080i → 480p/576p, 720p, 1080p • 720p → 480p/576p, 1080i, 1080p Choice Functions Through Does not up-scale any video signals. 480p (or 576p), 1080i, 720p, 1080p Up-scales video signals to 480p or 576p, 1080i, 720p, or 1080p of resolution. Note The input video signals may be down-scaled depending on the setting of "HDMI Resolution". Advanced Operation 107 En
