Sound delay
Every video monitor requires a certain amount of time to display the video
signals (latency); this period may vary from monitor to monitor. If your monitor
has a long latency, the result may be a perceptible time-lag between the picture
and the sound. This is usually apparent when lip movements are not properly
synchronised with the soundtrack.
To compensate for this effect the
K2 Blu
features a digital sound delay module
(Lipsync) which can be used to synchronise picture and sound reproduction.
If necessary, set a delay time in this menu point which corresponds to your
video monitor. If the latency of your monitor is not stated in its Specification,
you will need to determine the appropriate value experimentally, e.g. by playing
a DVD in the original speech version (non-synchronised version). During
playback simply adjust the value for sound delay until the speaker’s lip
movements coincide with the sound.
Menu point
Brightness
(Screen Brightness)
At this point you can adjust the brightness of the K2 Blu’s integral screen to suit
your personal preference in normal use. Seven levels are available.
Menu point
Language
In this menu point it is possible to determine the language which is to be used for the
displays on the integral screen on the front panel of the
K2 Blu
.
The language used for any transferred data, e.g. from an iPod or an Internet
radio station, is determined by the device itself or the radio station, and
therefore
cannot
be selected on the
K2 Blu
.
