Optimizing the High-Definition Settings
This subsection describes how to optimize standard and HD video settings and closed captioning
based on subscriber preferences.
Before you optimize the output settings:
Connect the DCT6400 to other home entertainment devices
Plug the DCT6400 into a power outlet
Perform the boot cycle
Initialize the DCT6400 and authorize services
Turn the TV on
For an HDMI connection, be sure the TV is on and connected to the HDMI connector before
adjusting the settings. Motorola recommends using HDMI cables less than 20 meters long.
To optimize the output settings:
1
Power off the DCT6400 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:
