Display Settings:
The LinkTheater supports four display modes. Changing the
display modes could result in your LinkTheater not operating
properly so please make sure you know which modes your TV or
monitor supports:
Composite 480i 4x3 – This is the standard mode. It utilized
the standard RCA (yellow) video cable or to transmit video data.
480i means the picture is displayed at the resolution 640x480
interlaced.
Component 480p 4x3 – This is identical to the mode above,
requiring a TV or monitor with HDMI, D4, or component video,
however, this mode uses 640x480 progressive resolution. This
is the same resolution that a progressive scan DVD player would
use. If your TV or monitor doesn’t support 480p than this mode
will NOT work.
Component 720p 16x9 – This mode is the native format for many
common HDTVs. It’s broadcast over the HDMI and D4/component
video connectors. Most widescreen HDTVs should support this
mode. It uses 180x70 progressive resolution. If your TV or
monitor doesn’t support 70p than this mode will NOT work.
Component 1080i 16x9 – This is the best, highest resolution
mode available from the LinkTheater. If your TV or monitor
can displays 1080i images, then this is the mode to use. The
HD image is transmitted over the D4/component and HDMI
video connectors. Use of this mode with 70p monitors is not
recommended. Even if they can display it, they’d look better in
their native 70p. Only use this mode with HD TVs that display
1080i resolution.
Please check with your TV or monitor’s documentation and
specifications to determine which mode you should use.
NOTE: The LinkTheater can only transmit D4/component and
HDMI video simultaneously. It cannot transmit on D4/component
and composite or HDMI and composite simultaneously.
