HDTV Setup

The Moxi 3012

automatically adjusts the video output to match the

broadcast format and the selections you make in the HDTV Setup
card.

The video resolution options are 480i, 480p, 720p, and 1080i. Always
use the best resolution allowed by your TV. The following table dis-
plays which resolutions are supported by which cables.

For information on audio cables, see table 4 on page 54.

Setting standard TV video resolution

If your TV is a standard definition (SD) TV, make sure 480i is the only
box checked. All other video resolutions will be output at 480i. You
can still watch HD channels and they may look considerably better
than their SD counterparts.
