Video formats Image 12-1 Image 12-2 load file dialogbox in case of a video source In PiP mode, the files which may be loaded will be of the data type if the active window is a data window, or they will be of the video type if the active window is a video window. What to do if the image is not perfect ? If the displayed image is not correct after AutoImage or after selecting the best fitting file, go to the Edit menu, select the active file and change the settings. 12.

12. Video formats The AGC hold interval is the time interval in which the AGC is inhibited (AGC hold = no update in video amplitude measurement), the advanced parameter allows to choose a short or long hold interval. A long AGC hold interval eliminates Macrovision ® disturbances since the AGC is hold during a long interval, thus reducing the probability to encounter a Macrovision ® pulse. The sync locking setting is recommended for poor video signals (ex: poor TV signals).
