Installing Video Pass-Thru
(Standard Definition)
Using The Hauppauge
HVR-1950
•
Run the necessary cable (Coaxial, S-Video or Composite) from the video source to the media
player.
•
Verify the source video using this cabling.
•
Power down the digital media player.
•
Connect the Video Adapter to any available USB port on the media player. Note that ideally
it should be connected to a port where it is not likely to be bumped or disconnected.
•
Determine the connection to the video source. If Coaxial cable (F-Connector) will be used,
then the included S Video / Composite cable adapter is not necessary for this installation. If
S-Video or Composite will be used, then the cable adapter should be connected to the USB
Adaptor. Note that multiple sources may be installed as long as each uses a separate
connection. For example, a cable tuner may be connected using S-Video while a surveillance
camera is connected using Composite.
•
Determine the aspect ratio of the output source. Determine if output source is standard
(4:3), standard (16:9) or high definition (16:9).
•
If the cable adapter is required, connect the mail mini-USB end of the adapter to the female
mini-USB port on the Video Adapter.
•
Connect the video source(s) to their respective connector on the Video Adapter (Coaxial) or
cable adapter (S-Video and/or Composite).
•
Turn power on to (1) the video source(s); (2) display(s); (3) media player.
•
Instruct the client which device (e.g., HVR-1950) connection(s) was / were used during the
installation. If Coaxial cable is used, instruct the client of the source video output channel.
Instruct the client what the aspect ratio of their output source is. It is critical the client
knows which connection (and channel, where applicable) is assigned to each source, as they
will need to identify this when programming the media player for playback.
•
If the video pass-thru content does not fill the entire video zone (e.g. black on the top
and/or the bottom, or the sides), call technical support at 888.825.9496 to resize the video
zone remotely.
