the CrossPoint 450 Plus or MAV Plus switcher, and it describes an actual image
problem that Extron has encountered.
General checks

Plasma display S-video problem (CrossPoint 450 Plus switchers only)
Extron has encountered a problem when a CrossPoint 450 Plus switcher routes
S-video that is output by some video conference codecs. Some codecs change the
DC offset on the chrominance (C) so that it is very different from the level on the
luminance (Y). This can cause a plasma display to come up in the wrong size
mode.
With the matrix switcher taken out of the system, the plasma works fine. It looks
like a problem with the matrix switcher, but it is not. The matrix switcher boosts
the bad codec output, which makes the plasma go to the wrong setting.
Solution
: Try placing an Extron video DC block adapter, part #26-495-01, on the
luminance (Y) input to the switcher from the codec.
