In dual-channel mode, input is split into two channels, Channels A and B, each with its own
output format. Output connectors can be grouped into one of two channels in order to
manage the two different output formats that are running simultaneously. For more
information about mapping and using channels, refer to “
While in 3D system mode, outputs can be set up as either single-stream or dual-stream.
