There was only one way of connecting a VCR to a TV - via the aerial cable. However the growth in domestic high quality video, along with the introduction of widescreen and non-CRT displays has meant that video interface issues, once of concern only to professionals, have become significant in domestic systems. The following few paragraphs provide an explanation of some of the issues and technologies that impinge on the DVD5, its installation and operation. wire simplicity and convenience, but the necessary downstream decoding produces unavoidable and visible artifacts. Composite video thus offers the lowest display quality of the options available and should be used if there is really no other option. Very few contemporary displays or TVs will offer a composite video input only . 14. 2. 2 S-Video (4 Pin mini-DIN, analogue) The S-Video format offers the next higher quality video connection. S-Video is a two channel based connection with the colour and brightness information separated, and the timing signal combined with the brightness signal. The separation of colour and brightness reduces the need for downstream processing to decode the signals and results in potentially a sharper image. 14. 1 Video Display - Interlaced and Progressive Scan Video is nothing more than a series of still pictures displayed sequentially at such a rate that the brain perceives continuous motion. A video signal comprises elements that describe the colour and brightness of each individual display pixel and an element that describes the necessary timing information required to create an image.

If the AV2 is to be set up for a new installation, and may have been previously used, the setup values should be returned to their factory defaults. To restore the default values separately in either setup page press and hold the handset disp key while the AV2 is in the desired setup mode. To restore the default values simultaneously across both setup pages press and hold the handset disp key while the AV2 is in normal mode. [. . . ]
