digital receiver linked to your television via this connector, you
should set the SCART Output option to your desired colour
model. If you have connected via the RCA connector labeled

VIDEO

on the back panel, you do not have to set this option

because the digital receiver outputs CVBS video through the
RCA connector independent of the SCART connector.

However, if you have connected via the S-VIDEO connector,

you have to set this option to S-Video because the output

through S-Video connector comes from the SCART interface.

It is known in general that the RGB colour model provides the
best video quality with little difference from the YUV colour
model but the CVBS colour model does the least. So RGB

would be most desirable for this option.

3.2.3

Video cassette recorder

You can have the digital receiver linked to your video cassette

recorder or such an appliance via the VCR SCART connector. In
that case, the digital receiver will operate differently depending
on the setting of the VCR Scart Type option. If the option is
set to Standard, the digital receiver will pass the video from
the video cassette recorder to your television when it starts

playback. But if the option is set to External A/V, the digital

receiver will not pass the video automatically. To pass it, you
have to press the

 

AUX

button.

NOTE

It is impossible for the digital receiver to record the video that
the video recorder plays back because the digital receiver is
just a bypass for the video recorder.

3.2.4

Television aspect ratio

If you have a wide-screen television, set the TV Aspect Ratio
option to 16:9.
