Nº502 Media Console Customizing the Nº502
Video Profiles
Video Profiles provide the video processing and video output controls for
the Nº502 Media Console. The parameters include basic controls such as
brightness or contrast, and state-of-the-art video processing technology
that can enhance the video source material. Because of the Activity-based
nature of the Video Profiles, you can create individual Video Profiles for
each video input source or type, allowing you to tailor your viewing
preferences to the media you’re watching and minimize the time you
spend adjusting the system.
The Video Profile Setup menu contains the following options:
• Name – customizes the name of each Video Profile. Refer to the “Add
New, Name, & Delete” section found earlier in this chapter for more
details.
• Deinterlacing – identifies the conversion type applied to the
interlaced video.
• Adaptive Threshold – adjusts the adaptive processing, depending
upon the video source material.
• Film Detection – detects the presence of film-originated material.
• Chroma Bug Correction – corrects the chroma bug caused by
some mpeg decoding devices.
• Noise Reduction – adjusts how much noise is filtered out.
• Brightness – adjusts the brightness or overall tone of the video.
• Contrast – adjusts the contrast, or the variations between the
lightest and darkest areas of the video image.
• Saturation – controls the saturation, or color intensity, of the video
image.
• Tint – controls the color balance of the video image.
• Sharpness – enhances the sharpness of the video image.
• Delete Video Profile – deletes Video Profiles that are no longer
needed. Refer to the “Add New, Name, & Delete” section found earlier
in this chapter for more details.
In most cases, there is no need to change the Video Profile parameters
from the default settings as these values are designed to be optimal with
most properly adjusted video source materials. However, the Video
Profiles are exceptionally useful when source-specific adjustments are
needed, removing the need to constantly alter the global settings of the
video display.
For instance, if you find that classic movies always seem to look washed
out, you could make a “Classic Movie” Video Profile that modifies the
Contrast and Brightness settings to improve the image. This Video Profile
can then be loaded whenever you want to watch an old movie and the
adjustment will be made automatically.
