The Video Setup menu provides six set-

tings that customize the video output of the

RDV-1093:

Output Format

This item displays the setting of the back panel

NTSC/PAL switch. This item provides informa

tion only. The actual output format setting is

made with the back panel switch.

• NTSC:

For use with NTSC TV monitors.

• PAL: For use with PAL TV monitors.

NOTE:

The position of the back panel

switch determines the NTSC/PAL output for

mat when the Auto Format (described be

low) is set to the OFF position.

Auto Format

Most TV monitors are designed to display

either NTSC or PAL video signals. With these

TVs, simply set the output format with the back

panel NTSC/PAL switch.

With multi-format TV monitors that can display

both NTSC or PAL video formats, you can have

the RDV-1093 match the output format to the

format of the disc being played. Use the Auto

Format item to override the setting of the back

panel switch:

• OFF: The video output format matches the

setting of the NTSC/PAL switch on the back

panel (default).

• ON: The setting of the back panel switch

is ignored and the output format is deter

mined by the disc being played. The format

of the last played disc is displayed in the

setting.

Black Level

This setting determines the black level for NTSC

format video. In the United States, the video

standard has been “7.5 IRE”, meaning that

a video signal above 0 volts is displayed as

pure black. This setting will appear somewhat

“lighter” in dark areas of the picture. In Japan,

the video standard has been “0.0 IRE” meaning

that a 0 volt video signal is displayed as pure

black. This setting is sometimes called “blacker

than black” and will appear somewhat darker

in darker areas of the picture.

This item allows you to choose either 7.5

IRE or 0.0 IRE output from the RDV-1093.

In general, you should set the black level at

7.5 IRE in the United States so that your DVD

output matches that of cable tuners and other

sources so the TV picture remains consistent

from source to source.

• 7.5 IRE: For use with NTSC TV monitors

in the United States (default).

• 0.0 IRE: For use with NTSC monitors in

Japan and other markets.

NOTE:

The IRE setting only applies to NTSC

output and has no effect with PAL output.

Lip Sync

This setting delays the audio signal by the

speciﬁed amount to match the video signal. This

feature is very seldom needed with DVD discs,

but can be used if the audio is not matched to

the video. To adjust:

• Press the ENT button to begin. The Status

Bar shows “A/V Delay”.

• Press the CURSOR t/u buttons to adjust

from –63 to +64. The default setting is 0

(no lip synch adjustment).

Aspect Ratio

There are two types of TVs: 4:3 aspect ratio

and wide-screen 16:9 aspect ratio monitors.

Use this preference item to conﬁgure the video

output to match the aspect ratio of your TV.

With a 4:3 aspect ratio TV, you also need to

tell the RDV-1093 how to adjust wide-screen

video images to ﬁt, either displaying the wide

screen image in a letter box or as a pan/scan

image.

• 16:9 Widescreen

Select this option for a wide-screen 16:9

aspect ratio TV (default). All aspect-ratio

matching and zoom modes are handled

by the TV.

• 4:3 Letterbox

Select this option for a 4:3 aspect ratio TV.

4:3 aspect ratio programs fill the screen.

Wide-screen video images are displayed

full-width with black letterbox masks inserted

top and bottom.

• 4:3 Pan/Scan

Select this option for a 4:3 aspect ratio TV.

4:3 aspect ratio programs fill the screen.

Wide-screen video images are zoomed

(pan/scan) to fill the screen vertically with

portions of the image cut off the left and

right sides.

CCIR Clipping

A European standard establishes maximum

signal levels for digital video processing.

Most DVD discs adhere to these standards.

The RDV-1093 provides an option to apply a

“clipping ﬁlter” to limit the digital video levels

when required for a non-standard DVD.

• OFF: No clipping filter. This default setting

should work with DVDs that adhere to the

standards.

• ON: Activates an optional clipping filter

for use with non-standard DVDs with digital

video levels exceeding CCIR standards.
