OPTIMIZING YOUR CABLE TERMINAL FOR HDTV
The DCT3412 outputs HD video through its Y Pb Pr (component), HDMI,
or IEEE 1394 connectors. This section describes how to optimize
standard and HD video based on your system’s HDTV capabilities and
personal preferences.
If you use the IEEE 1394 output, no adjustments to the settings are required.
For a TV with an HDMI connection, be sure the TV is on and connected
to the
HDMI OUT
connector before adjusting the settings. Motorola
recommends using HDMI cables less than 65 feet long for optimal
performance.
You can configure the TV type, HDMI, and/or Y Pb Pr video output, and
closed captioning.
For the best standard and HD viewing:
1
Power off the DCT3412, and then immediately press the
MENU
key
on the front panel. If the TV is on, the on-screen menu lists the
settings you can configure:
