5.9 – Pixel Magic System
Crystalio provides an automated mechanism for setting
the output display configuration of Crystalio to perfectly
match those of your display device.
If you already know the settings of your display, you
can select them via setting up Resolution (Section 4.5).
However, there may be circumstances where either the
settings are not known, or are not listed in the library of
standard settings. Pixel Magic System is a user-
friendly system that allows you to interactively
configure your display until you achieve a perfect
image.
To use Pixel Magic System, you must have a DVD
player connected to your display. Also, for best result,
you should use a DVD player with a digital video
connection. This means either a DVI or a SDI
connection. The reason for this is that only a digital
connection guarantees 100% lossless transfer of the
DVD information to Crystalio, which is necessary for
the most accurate setup result.
If you do not have access to a DVD player with digital
connection, we recommend you to use the setup
procedures described in Resolution (Section 4.5).
Setting Up Pixel Magic System
Step 1 Ensure that your DVD player is connected to
Crystalio according to the
recommendations (via a digital terminal).
Switch ON DVD player and insert PixelMagic
DVD disc.
Step 2 Ensure the DVD player is set as the input
source of Crystalio.
