Defining your playback settings
$ YUV/RGB (for analog output) Select YUV or RGB - native to set the 
type of video signal that is sent from the component output. For example, 
select 
RGB - native if you connected the component output to a device 
that accepts an RGB signal.
$ YUV/RGB (for HDMI output) Select the type of video signal that you 
want to be sent from the HDMI output:
• YUV Outputs YUV HDMI video. Select this only if you connected 
the HDMI output to a device that accepts a YUV signal.
• RGB - calibrated Outputs adjusted RGB HDMI video using the 
currently loaded Matrox HDMI calibration settings for your HDMI 
monitor or television. For details on calibrating your HDMI monitor 
and loading calibration settings using the Matrox HDMI Calibration 
Utility, see Chapter 7, “Calibrating Your HDMI Monitor for Video.”
• RGB - native Outputs native RGB HDMI video that does not apply 
any calibration compensation. This is useful when you want to output 
RGB HDMI video to a device other than an HDMI monitor or 
television, such as an HDMI recorder to perform an export to tape.
$ 3D Viewing Mode Select the 3D signal type that you want to be sent 
from the HDMI output to your 3D monitor (this feature may not be 
supported on some 3D monitors):
• Disabled Select this if you’re not outputting 3D video, or to disable 
3D video output. You can still monitor 3D video, but you must select 
the correct viewing mode on your 3D monitor manually.
• Side-by-side Outputs horizontally compressed side-by-side 3D 
video (also referred to as side-by-side horizontal).
• Over/Under Outputs over/under 3D video (also referred to as top 
bottom).
¡ Important If your project’s Stereoscopic setting is anything other than 
Side by side, Over/Under, or Full, make sure that you set the 3D Viewing 
Mode
 to Disabled. For example, if your project’s Stereoscopic setting is 
Off or Leading Eye, you must disable the 3D video output in order to 
properly view the HDMI output.
5 Under Advanced, select Allow Super White to allow the highest 
luminance level of your video output to exceed the standard maximum white 
level. Select 
Allow Super Black to allow the lowest luminance level of your 
video output to fall below the standard black level. These options apply to 
both the main analog output and secondary HDMI output.
¦NoteSuper white and super black should not be allowed when producing 
your final video production for broadcast.
