proc3 Selecting the NO option causes the de-interlacer to apply a Motion compensated algorithm optimized for video camera signals. NOISE REDUCTION This adjustment serves to select the noise reduction filter value. In this latter case, simply click on the slider and set the value with the ◀ and ▶ keys on the remote control. IMAGE This menu features adjustments relating to picture position, aspect ratio, magnification etc.
proc3 There are 4 sets of gamma curves: Standard (ST), Enhanced SIM2 (EN) and Graphics (GR), User. The Standard curve has been defined for general use, and is set for videocameras, digital cameras, and for viewing films or photos on your PC. The Enhanced set is suitable for watching movies. The Graphics set is suited to displaying synthetic graphics (PC, CAD, PC presentations, etc.). User enables you to define your own curve. You can thus select the coefficient which determines the curve.
proc3 Values from 1.5 to 2.2 allow you to emphasise the detail of dark images, but reduce overall contrast. Values higher than 2.2 increase overall contrast, but reduce the detail of dark areas. For the most common video sources, the overscanning value can be in the range (no overscanning) to 32 (maximum). The resulting image always maintains the selected aspect irrespective of the selected overscan value.
