7.8 The PAL Menu In this menu, you can use the left/right arrows to switch between `60 Hz monitor´ and `50 monitor´. If the connected monitor supports a frame rate of 50 Hz, please select `50 Hz monitor´ so that PAL videos can be played in 50 Hz mode.

In this case, the PAL signal is displayed with the aid of interpolation and is rendered `up´ to the required 60 Hz.
example, we had chosen 1920x1200, most projector beamers would show no picture and the user would hence not be in a position to set t the required resolution. This default setting can be brought back any time by pressing the `Reset monitor´ key for a longer time (app. 10 seconds). If, for example, the recorder has been used with a 1920x1200 monitor and then is to be used in combination with a 1024x768 projector in the mean time, the projector will initially display no picture.
