Operation Manual

3.2 Video and audio settings 15
If you have a PAL television, you have to set the TV Type
option to PAL. In that case, if you switch to a service of the
NTSC standard, the digital receiver will presents the pictures
converting into the PAL standard. However, it is inevitable to
lose a little picture quality. Likewise, the contrary case brings
about the same result.
The best thing is to watch PAL services with a PAL television
and to watch NTSC services with a NTSC television. However,
a multi television set is able to process both of them. So if
you have a multi television set, you had better set the TV Type
option to Multi. Then the digital receiver will present pictures
without standard conversion.
3.2.2 Colour model
Through the TV SCART connector, the digital receiver is able
to output video in various colour models. If you have the
digital receiver linked to your television via this connector,
you should set the Video Output option to your desired colour
model. If you have connected via the RCA connector labeled
VIDEO on the back panel, you do not have to set this option
because the digital receiver outputs CVBS video through the
RCA connector independent of the SCART connector.
It is known in general that the RGB colour model provides the
best video quality with little difference from the YUV colour
model but the CVBS colour model does the least. So RGB
would be most desirable for this option.
3.2.3 Television aspect ratio
If you have a wide-screen television, set the TV Aspect Ratio
option to 16:9.
Otherwise, if you have a normal-screen television, set the TV
Aspect Ratio option to 4:3.
