Krell Showcase DVD
The Showcase DVD is shipped ready to play from the factory. The
player automatically switches to NTSC or PAL, depending on the
disc format. The default standard is preset, and not selectable by the
user.
To get started, Krell recommends the following routine:
Connect the Showcase DVD to AC Power
Plug the AC cord into the wall outlet. The red stand-by LED (3) illumi-
nates.
Choose and Connect the Video Outputs
to Your Television
Choose the output that matches your television input. The Showcase
DVD supports composite, S-Video, interlaced, and progressive
scan (480p) component video signals.
See
Definition of Terms,
on
page 3, for a detailed description of video signals.
The progressive PrPbY outputs will provide the best quality pic-
ture, because they build video screen content in one pass. To
achieve this picture quality, the progressive PrPb Y outputs need
to be connected to a television with a 31.5 kHz horizontal scan
rate, capable of accepting a progressive signal of 480p or better.
Most plasma, D-ILA, DLP, and HDTV televisions have this fea-
ture.
Connect the Showcase DVD directly to the television. Set the TV to the cor-
rect video input channel.
An optional HDMI connector is available for the Showcase DVD. The
connector produces the following digital component signals: 480p,
720p, and 1080i.
