Computer or External input is provided for direct display of your Presentations or Internet applications. It can be

 The Multi-Input Video Scaler

 

is a new SCALER / LINE DOUBLER / QUADRUPLER / MULTIPLIER which

significantly increases the Video image resolution and brightness. The High Quality Digital decoder includes a new
advanced Comb Filter, a robust sync. detection and a 3D auto-adaptive de-interlacing scheme (for motion artifacts), with
correction of the "film to video" transfer (3/2 pulldown for NTSC). It provides you with a "cinema like" image.

 In addition, and according to your requirements, you can adjust special image parameters like the Sharpness for details

emphasis. You can also select a filter which removes unwanted alias frequencies found in some LCD video-projectors.

 The input source aspect-ratio 4/3 - Letterbox - Widescreen Anamorphic can be selected, as well as the 4/3 & 16/9 Screen

selection to avoid "resizing" the video-projector ZOOM when viewing 4/3 Sources on a 16/9 display.
