• If your TV does not accept your resolution setting, an abnormal picture
appears on the screen. Please read TV’s owner’s manual then set the resolu-
tion that your TV can accept.
• If the HDMI jack is connected for TVs providing display information (EDID),

[Size]: Since the speaker settings are fixed, you cannot change the settings.
[Volume]: Adjust the output level of the selected speaker. (-5dB ~ 5dB)
[Distance]: If you connected speakers to your DVD/CD Receiver, setting the
Distance lets the speakers know how far the sound has to travel to reach
your set listening point. This allows the sound from each speaker to reach
the listener at the same time.

Vocal
– Select [On] to mix karaoke channels into normal stereo. This function is
effective for multi-channel karaoke DVDs only.
HD AV Sync
- Sometimes Digital TV encounters a delay between picture and
sound. If this happens you can compensate by setting a delay on the sound so
that it effectively ‘waits’ for the picture to arrive: this is called HD AV Sync. Use
vV
to scroll up and down through the delay amount, which you can set at anything
between 0 and 300m sec.
The delay will vary depending on which digital TV channel you are on. If you
change channel you may need to readjust the HD AV Sync.
