The DVD 1235 R is compatible with both NTSC and with
PAL video monitors.
PAL
Use this setting, if the picture shall be displayed on a PAL
TV. DVDs in NTSC format are converted to PAL by the
DVD 1235 R and output in standard PAL video mode.
NTSC
Use this setting, if the picture shall be displayed on a
NTSC TV. DVDs in PAL format are converted to NTSC
by the DVD 1235 R and output in standard NTSC video
mode.
AUTO
If you select this setting, the DVD 1235 R will not convert
signals between PAL and NTSC. All video signals will be
output in exactly the format in which they are stored on
the disc. Using this setting your TV must be compatible to
the video standard of the disc which you want to play
back.
We recommend this setting, if you use a multi standard
TV set, which automatically detects the video standard
and processes viodeo signals accordingly.
Note:
Picture distortions can occur when switching between
NTSC and PAL.
TV shape
This submenu lets you adjust the picture output of the
DVD 1235 R to the geometry of your TV set.
Note:
The format selected must be available on the disc.
Otherwise this setting will not have any influence on the
picture display.
