Select Picture Mode for Normal Viewing
After you use the HDTV Setup Wizard to select all the HDTV picture formats
you want to use, you need to choose a General Settings picture mode for
normal viewing. If you have your HDTV connected to the DVR for iO TV
using component cables, Pass-Through mode is recommended for normal
viewing. Pass-Through mode allows non-HD channels to be displayed
using their native picture formats, which can improve picture quality on
non-HD channels.
To select Pass-Through mode for normal
viewing, follow these steps.
