Using the Menu Options 

The video converter uses an intuitive on-screen display (OSD) system that allows you to
fine-tune the video output to the display you are using.

By default, the video converter selects an output setting of XGA (1024 x 768 pixels, 60

Using the OSD

steps outlined in the section above to reset the video scaler back to a compatible setting.
